"I'm outside,"
Jimin pants into the phone as he stays on his toes. Walking back and forth in front of the building as the cold air nipped his skin. It was particularly cold today- and the cold winds with the wet tears - everything seemed to have settled. He wanted to admit it but this is happiest he has been in years.
The fact that he saw your face.
The fact that he heard your voice.
It all made him emotional. Jimin was ecstatic to see that his 2 years of pure torture had paid off and you were well and alive. But he needed to see you before the big plan. Jimin could die in your name.
"Jimin?"
The delicate voice echoes as the street lights cast over the two of them. Jimin finally halts his steps and walks up to the women.
"It's done," He whispers.
"Okay, "Jisoo says, gripping the backpack before looking around her surroundings to check if there are any lingering eyes, "This is enough money to get you out of the country. Fake ID, Licenses, Birth Certificate - all documentaries are in there and certified."
Your eyes immediately flash through his head and he reaches out for the bag and hurriedly looks inside.
"Tonight at gate 13 - Seoul Airport. A man with bright red shoes will be waiting for you with tickets to America - he will make sure that you get across safely without Soekjin attacking."
Soekjin.
The man who is ruining everything. The man was the reason why Jimin lost the love of his life. If Jimin actually left the country - Soekjin would start to pester Jisoo even more, if she can't handle it it's a solid fact that he is going to directly come for you.
"I am not leaving..."Jimin mumbles.
Running his small hand through his slick hair as he starts to think even further about the situation.
"I am going to kill him."He grits, "I-I can't leave! He'll kill her!"
"And me!"Jisoo shouts
Confusion overshadows him and his thoughts his halt.
"I thought you were done paying him like a month ago?"
"Apparently Jaehyun is still looking for me and Soekjin needs more money to keep him quiet..."
Jisoo shuts her eyes as the situation becomes even more irritating. She is barely scraping by anymore. Paying Soekjin, budgeting money for Jimin and trying to have a basic life. It was all taking a financial strain on her and it's starting to stress her out.
"But Jaehyun died a year ago?"
Jimin watches as her expressions change. The color draining from her face. His blood begins to warm up and his temple throb and thoughts pulse through his head. Soekjin was so ruthless. How could he even think to manipulate women for money? Jimin instantly has a shiver run through his system and the anger begins to fill him.
"He's been using people this whole time? Now I am going to kill him. I just need time to plan everything."
He runs his hand through his hair again before giving the backpack back to Jisoo. She shakes her head, "Please - it's to help you."
"No, I am not leaving."
Jisoo gratefully takes the bag back, happy that she'll at least be able to buy Namjoon an Anniversary gift after all. Silence stays between the two as Jisoo wipes away the tears from her eyes.
"I am happy that you're doing this for all of this for her..."
Jimin smiles as your adorable face flashes in his eyes. He stops pacing back and forth and runs his hand through his hair once again.
"I'd do anything for her."
He bites his tongue.
"S-she is h-happy..."He gulps, "R-right?"
"She is getting there,"
He sniffs, "That's all I've ever wanted."

"Have you seen Yoongi anywhere? I didn't see him by the court?"
"Yeah, he went down to the music room."
"Which one?"
"The one on the second floor."
"Thank you,"
You bow down respectfully before turning on the heel of your small foot. Proceeding to walk down the hallway to the closest elevator. Jisoo stood by your side as she watched your side profile with a nervous gaze. But you completely shut her out as you stared attentively at your fee debating in your head whether or not you should tell you - well Yoongi, about Jimin.
Everything else with your emotions, however, seemed less heavy.
This is was the final step that was needed just to make everything easier. Jimin's apology changes everything- and it was your ticket to finally move on.
But now you had another hump on the road.
Yoongi was beyond livid when he came to the Asylum. Wanting to know who took his family away. If you plan to keep quiet.
Whatever that's kept in the dark will always find it's way into the light.
He'll never forgive you if you do - but he'll kill Jimin out of fury. And you'll never forgive yourself if you ever tell him to move on because then you'll be exactly like everybody else.
But if you do tell him.
What if he'll see you in a different light?
After all - Jimin was your ex-boyfriend.
But Yoongi is understanding. You know he'll understand that none of this was your fault, it was beyond your control.
You nibble your lip - suddenly feeling overwhelmed as you felt to urge to just burst into tears
"So my ex came to visit me, "You whisper.
Jisoo's eyes enlarge in shock," He what???"
"Jimin, "You mutter, "He came."
Her eyes linger your nervous posture.
"He told me a lot of things, "You mumble, "Including who killed Yoongi's parents..."
"I know I need to tell him b-but I don't even know h-how."You whine, "I don't even if I should tell him but I don't think I'll be able to keep it to myself."
"Tell him,"
You gulp. Allow your finger to gently play with your bottom lip. Jisoo and yourself continued to walk down the hallway.
It would only make sense if you did tell him.
It wouldn't be fair on him if you kept quiet.
He has a right to know.
"Okay."
