CHAPTER TWENTYSIX
Miss You

The day has come. Friday. The last time Jimin will be at school without Yoongi.

He gives himself a quick glance in the mirror and fixes his fluffy hair. Fixing his glasses, he closes his bedroom door and heads out. "Bye M-Mum," he softly smiles, giving her a hug.

"Only 8 more hours without Yoongi!" His mother tightens the hug.

"...Well y-you didn't need to put—put it that way."

She pulls away and cups her son's cheeks. "I'm sorry sweets. Maybe you can video chat him tonight! You two haven't done that since Monday."

Jimin nods happily. A pit has been filling him all week because of not seeing Yoongi. He's never missed someone so much.

Me:
LAST DAY WITHOUT YOU
ITS BEEN A LONG WEEK
HOWVE YOU BEEN ALL WEEK
WE SHOULD VIDEO CHAT LATER

Jimin sighs as he puts his phone back in his pocket. "Guess...guess he's sleeping in," he mumbles to himself, frowning.

Then he freezes. What if he's not sleeping in? What if he texted too much and Yoongi is annoyed with him? Was texting in all caps too much?

He shakes his head, trying to dispose the negative thoughts. His lip quivers. "I...I miss you."

Today is the day that having a gloomy overcast makes sense.

Rain softly drizzles over Yoongi's face. He brushes the droplets off of his black suit, thinking about the last time has even worn a suit.

He lifts his head, looking past the other benches filled with family ahead of him. Even though he has already looked at that casket multiple times, something still breaks inside of him.

"My asshole of a brother cannot even attend the funeral as a father?"

Yoongi quickly looks up, greeted by a shorter women dressed in all black. He shakes his head. "He's too hungover to give a shit."

She takes a seat down next to him. "Is he worse after this?"

"He's probably going to use this as an excuse to drink even more," he replies, his blood boiling with anger because of the drunk.

Nodding, she folds her hands. "I see..." She looks over at her nephew. "I'm so sorry, Yoongi," she sympathizes as her long dress gently blows in the wind. Without him saying a word, she pulls him into a hug.

He wants to cry but he...can't?

She presses her lips together, trying to hold in tears to save her makeup. "It's sad to realize that even the people that appear to be the happiest are the most broken."

After she says it, a single tear leaves Yoongi's eye. His aunt even made herself break down.

The truth hurts... a lot.

And all Yoongi can do is put the blame on himself.

"What..." Yoongi breathes, trying to keep himself composed. "What did I do wrong, LaRae?"

Her eyes soften. "You didn't do anything wrong... You would be the last person to take the blame for this..." She takes a deep breath before continuing.

"Sometimes... the world just becomes too much for a person... and there isn't anything any of us can do. It's an awful thing that they had to take themselves out of the world but I have a firm belief that she's at peace now."

Yoongi remains silent, watching every silent tear that leaves LaRae's eyes.

"Life sucks... It really does," she carefully wipes her eyes with a tissue. "And it hurts so much to think that Rosé felt so alone. It hurts even more that there are so many people out in the world who have felt just as alone as her and have made the same decision."

She quickly grabs Yoongi's hands. "Please find someone to talk to Yoongi. It doesn't matter if it's your mom or a friend... just please, please."

His eyes widen at the comment. She notices his subtle reaction. "Those were the exact eyes Rosé had... I refuse to overlook those cries for help twice."

With the reviving engine of Cinder, Yoongi looks down at his phone. "Ah last day of suspension. I should probably finish my homework... Nah, it's not like I would do that if I wasn't suspended." He gives his phone a quick second glance, catching the notification from Jimin.

...

H-Hello?

Hey I'm sorry for not replying... I'm driving home now. What did you want to ask?

Ah it—it was no big deal. I was just w-wondering if you wanted to video call tonight? I completely u-understand if you don't—

I'll call you the moment I'm home.

Like I said it's—wait re...really?!

Of course! I really need someone to talk to tonight anyway.

Okay...okay cool! I will see you th-then!

>Call Ended<

Yoongi taps the wheel as he continues to drive.

"Find someone to talk to Yoongi."

He shakes his head.

"This better not fuck things up."
