Yoongi's POV:

"Then die."

I didn't know where it came from, but I let it pass. I felt hurt at my own words, but I didn't try to console him, or show him that I didn't mean it. Cuz that's the same what's happening to me. I am dying without having him by my side. I don't feel like waking up when I know he won't be there beside me. I don't want to eat when I know he must be starving himself. He's become so weak. His eyes show all the sleepless nights that he must've spent staring at the ceiling. This bitch always upsets his diet!

But now my heart was breaking painfully when I saw his tears, his head hung low as he started stepping back and moving towards the exit. I didn't even realise that I was crying myself until I saw the last of him through the door. I quickly wiped my face, took my book mark and left the place.

I won't ever come here again!

*Time skip* (after class)

"Tae, we know that you are upset dear. And yes no one of us is going through what you are rn. But don't shut yourself out please! Talk to us! Open up. I have always said this, There's nothing more unhealthy than a burdened heart and an empty brain."
(Greatest proverb on the planet......made by author-nim herself😝😝)

"Oh! Sorry hyung! I didn't realise that I wasn't talking to you guys. I was just thinking...."

"Okay! So tell us what were you thinking. But only if you're comfy with it. We won't invade in your privacy." Hobi said with a cheerful smile.

"Actually I met Jimin today."

As if it was involuntary, all the boys quickly turned to Yoongi, all at once.

"What?" Yoongi scoffed in annoyance.

"So.....what happened?" Namjoon asked.

With this Tae told them everything whatever Jimin said. After he finished, even Yoongi told them about his encounter with him.

"H-he has changed a lot. Like he has gone visibly thin and weak. His eyes were sore as well." Tae added.

"So now you have sympathy for him?" Hobi asked angrily.

"N-no, not exactly, but I felt a bit bad. He was all alone....."

"The fuck's wrong with you?? Any random person comes and rambles and you believe their shit? Now Jimin says that they actually didn't do anything much? Like what dude? Don't you understand, a whole ass Yoongi saw them making their minds out and now you think they were counting each other's pimples or what?"

All of them looked at each other with wide eyes, stunned at Hobi's sass but only until Jin burst out in laughter and in no time all of them joined him.

"Pimples! Wtff! That was epic Hobya!" Namjoon managed to say between his giggles.

"Hah! I missed this sooo much! Our stupid laughter over stupid jokes!" Yoongi said, pleased with his tummy exercise.

"Well but, hyung. Whatever Jimin said, that means that they didn't stop just because Yoongi hyung came. I think that's what he meant to say." Tae interrupted as soon as he regained his composure.

"Means?" Yoongi asked pretending to be the least interest.

"Look, he said that they were gonna go aboard but were unable to. Like J-Jungkook stopped as he was not able to go ahead. With whatever Jimin said, he was trying to imply that they were misunderstood. He said that just as Jk stopped, Yoongi hyung came and he saw them like that. That meant that they stopped before Yoongi hyung caught them, but just when they realised they were wrong, Yoongi hyung came. Jimin also said that Jungkook was mentioning me over and over......."

"Tae......"

"Yes hyung?"

"I really don't wanna believe any of this! I don't want you to believe any of this." Namjoon said.

Tae didn't know that such an obvious things would hurt him so much. But especially hearing this from Namjoon hyung, his feelings felt wrong than ever.

"No! No! I don't believe this. Seriously I don't, I was just s-sharing....."

With this Tae went to his silent mode again. He was furious! Over himself. He felt that he is not strong enough. He felt that he is not mature enough to let those people go away who don't care about him, who are long gone from his life. He felt so, cuz he lied to his hyungs. He lied on their faces that he doesn't believe whatever Jimin said. He so very well knew that this was wrong so why these fucking feelings! Why are they playing with me???? He wanted to believe every word whatever Jimin said! This was so unfair!

"Yess baby that's fine. We wanted you to speak your mind." Jin said, patting Tae's shoulder.

"But there is one thing." Yoongi suddenly spoke up, but his face was emotionless as if even he wasn't sure whether whatever he was saying was correct or not.

"What?" Tae asked eagerly.

"When......when I went there, I saw both of them shirtless."

"So?? What does that mean now?" Hobi asked.

"Well......their shirts were out of places, but none of their pants were undone..........Actually I remember the scenario as clear as yesterday. So when Tae told whatever Jimin told him, I just tried to connect it with whatever I saw. And....."

"So now even you believe him? Don't you?"

"Hobi! Enough of your over reacting. We're just discussing. Do you even know how difficult it is to be so away from someone whom you love with all your heart? Even though Taehyung claims that he hates Jungkook, I know his feelings haven't budged in the slightest bit. That's the same with me! And I am fucking fed up of it! I know this person hurt me so much but.............I am just making assumptions bro! Chill!"

"Yeah sure!" Hobi answered sarcastically.

*Time skip* (2 weeks)

The boys' came back to their routine life again. Tae and Yoongi would spend more time together, cuz both of them would find solace in each other's company. They knew moving on was the only option and it was being hella difficult. Tae knew maybe he won't forgive Jungkook, but yet he even went to search for him. But the biggest problem was that Jungkook hadn't shared a single personal thing of his with Tae. Yoongi on the other hand, contradictory to his promise, would visit the library daily after his class. But internally, he had accepted moving on as well.

It was Sunday, all of the boys were studying at home. The house was quiet, but not for long....

Tae's phone rang in the middle of their peace. He quickly went to pick it up.

"Hyung!!!!" Tae shouted for all of them to hear at once.

"What???"

"Its......its Jungkook's call!"

Before anyone would protest, Tae picked up the phone and kept it on speaker. Hobi frowned but gathered closer with all of them.

"H-hello?"

"Tae!"

Taehyung's eyes welled up as he heard Jungkook's voice. It was over a month, he hadn't heard this. Jin placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Who's this?" He purposefully asked.

"This is J-Jungkook. And I don't have much time!! Jimin.....Jimin is in danger!"
