Fate

17

I wake up to the sound of my stupid alarm. "Shoot! I gotta go to work!" I jump out of bed and quickly put on my work clothes. Namjoon slowly gets up while I'm rushing around the room trying to get ready. I head into the bathroom to put on some makeup and he decides to follow me. "You know, you don't need all that makeup. You are beautiful inside and out." I can't help but giggle because that was cute.

"Do you have to go to work?" Namjoon whines while I slip my shoes on. "If you want us to move into an apartment together than yes." He pouts and wraps his arms around me. "I don't want you to leave." I kiss him on the cheek and hold his face in my hands. "I know. I'll see you later okay?" He smiles and holds up his pinkie. "Promise?" I lock my pinkie with his. "I promise."

Work is the same as always, I go from patient to patient and make sure they are all still living. Hyunjin walked over to me with an excited look on his face. "So, I've got some good news." I look at him confused as he passed me some papers. "The big boss has been loving your hard work and commitment and so he has offered you the opportunity to work at one of our military bases to help the wounded soldiers. Before you give me that look, the pay is double of what you are making right now and they are giving you free housing on the base." I half skim through the papers. "The base is in Incheon, so it's not too far away and all you have to do is sign these papers and you start in two months." I look up at him and he is smiling from ear to ear. "Hyunjin, this is an amazing opportunity but may I have some time to think about it?" His smile half faded. "Of course but its due in three days so make sure you have it in before then if you decide to do it." I nodded and headed to the locker room. This is huge; I could afford an apartment in no time but the papers say that I would be stationed there for at least a year and that is a long time without Namjoon and the guys.

Once I got home I went to my room to shower and change then back downstairs to make some food. "You hungry?" I looked over at Jungkook who was making something on the stove. I set my phone down on the counter after texting Namjoon and replied to Jungkook. "I'm starving." He smiled and started putting whatever was in that pan into a bowl. "Good. I made us some ramen." I thanked him and followed him to the dining room. "How was work." I stirred around my ramen while processing his question because I am exhausted. "I got offered a job in an Incheon military base. I would be the nurse that 'helps the wounded soldiers.' But I would get paid double so that's a plus." He looks at me with eyes. "Incheon is too far away i'm going to miss you." He says while giving me a pouting face.

"Incheon?" I look over from my ramen and see my aunt and uncle standing in the kitchen. "Here's your phone by the way. It keeps going off." I take my phone and look at my notifications. Jin tried calling me three times and texted for me to call him asap. "I-i'll be back in a second." I rushed up to my room and called Jin.

"Jin? What's wrong?"

"Jaerin.... I don't know how to tell you this."

"Jin, just tell me."

"Umm, N-namjoon got into an accident."

"What do you mean?"

"On his way home today....a stupid kid ran a red light...."

"I-is he okay?"

"H-how about you come over alright? I'll be there in five to pick you and Jungkook up."

"O-okay."

I head back downstairs and tell Jungkook to put his shoes on and that Jin is on his way to get us. My aunt and uncle didn't question it and walk into the living room. Me and Jungkook head outside to wait for Jin. He pulls up within seconds with Jhope in the passenger seat so we jump in the back. "So what's going on?" Jungkook asks while putting on his seat belt. "W-we will explain once we get to my house." I looked over at Jungkook with tears threatening to pour out of my eyes. I texted Namjon about five times by now but none of them are sending.

I sat on Jin's bed with Jungkook and Jin and Jhope sat on the couch by the bed. "Would someone care to explain what is going on?" Jungkook asked looking each of us in the eyes. "N-namjoon has gotten into a car accident." Jungkook looks over at me as I look down at my hands with tears flowing endlessly. "I-is he okay?" He half chokes out. Jhope looks at us both. "I'm afraid that he didn't make it...He-He's ...gone." I start bawling my eyes out. "That's impossible. He can't be gone. We...we promised to see each other after my shift." Jin and Jhope crouch down in front of me each holding one of my shaking hands.

Jin brought me some of his homemade ginseng tea. "Jaerin, drink this. I know it's your favorite tea." I slowly sip the tea but immediately feel my insides about to rush out of me. I get up and run to the bathroom and the boys follow. "Jungkook hold her hair back for her."

"Jaerin-ah? Are you okay?" I open my eyes and see the three guys standing over me. "I-i'm fine. I think it's just everything overwhelming me." Jungkook places a warm cloth on my forehead and holds his hand over it gently. "W-where's the others?" I ask trying to not burst out in tears but I feel a couple fall out anyways. Jhope and Jin look at one another. "We kind of got into an argument, a really big argument and so we are on a no talking basis right now." I look at them confused. "They seriously won't even talk to you even after hearing this?" I exchanged glances to each of the guys until Jungkook speaks up. "But I just hung out with Tae like last week?" Jin and Jhope look at one another again. "Jungkook can we talk to you privately?" Jungkook looks at me and I nod at him. The three of them leave while I lay empty on the bed. This can't be real. What is going on? Jin and Jhope look suspicious and Namjoon still hasn't answered my texts or calls. "Namjoon, if you can hear me, please let me know that you are okay." I whisper while closing my eyes and letting the tears roll down my face.

Authors note (Important):

Before you say anything, no she is not like over the fact that Namjoon has passed she is and will be sad but I figured it's kinda sad and boring if I write chapters about Jaerin crying and nothing else so yeah. The next chapter probably wont talk about her crying or being sad because, like i said, it gets boring and sad. Thank you!!
