I Need You || A Sad BTS Story [ COMPLETED ]

special chapter 04 - park jimin

timeline #3 - park jimin

"OPPA! JIMIN OPPA!" Eun's voice echoes down the hospital's hallway.

I turned my head and stared at the door of the hospital's game room. Then it opened and in came the younger sister of Kim Seokjin. She looked tired and her eyes were bloodshot red.

"Oppa!" She calls out again when seeing me.

Seokeun runs to my side with a relieved expression on her face. "What are you doing here, Eunnie?" I asked while forcing a smile.

I don't want her to see me like this...

"This is for you," she says, not answering my question.

Then she hands me an envelope with my name written on its back. I realized that it's in Jin's handwriting. I nervously took the envelope and opened it, but I stopped halfway through and looked at my friend.

"Go on, Oppa," Eun encourages me.

I took a deep breath and pulled the folded paper out of its envelope. Then I unfolded the paper and started reading what looked to be Jin's letter.

Dear Jimin, 

        You deserve to be happy and to walk around freely. I am sorry for not understanding you... I should have tried harder since I am your friend. Thank you for keeping Eun company and for making her smile every day. Don't worry about what happened in your past, just keep moving forward and continue to dance. You look like an art whenever you do. Dance with Hoseok and Ryujin, okay?

        Also, Ryujin would be a lucky girl to have a guy like you. Promise me you'll gather the courage to ask her out. ;) Don't be afraid to be YOU, Jimin. I'll be rooting for you!!

From your friend,

Kim Seokjin.

After reading the letter from Jin, I softly heard Eun's voice asking me, "Oppa, do you want me to help you run away from here?"

I looked up away from the letter and stared at the 18-year-old girl. Then I smiled genuinely and said, "...Please."
