"Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone – we find it with another."

Thomas Merton  


A/N:

The lcd of my laptop turned into pink and then became dead black and needed a service. And because of the pandemic, it took times, I couldn't write.

Btw, do you guys watch the anime The Millionaire Detective Balance: Unlimited – the opening song was "Navigator" by SixTONES (I introduced them, and esp Jesse Lewis, in the chapter Imitation Rain) – Also my very first most fave Jpop group, V6, their PVs are now on youtube!! Familiar with Inuyasha "Change the World" ehh? It's em! xD

Anyway, sorry for the long wait – if there are anyone waiting this story – Stay safe and healthy!

P.S. Beautiful NamJin fanart by simbelmyne at twitter ^^

Namjoon couldn't really enjoy his Frankfurter poutine while Seokjin happily stuffed a spoonfull of Aligot and beef daube into his mouth. The conversation between him and Heechul earlier was somehow still shocking him. Not to mention the story behind it.

Namjoon listened to the story and acted like he knew things when he actually didn't. Because it could be weird and awkward if Heechul found out Namjoon know nothing about Seokjin's past. Namjoon just simply reacted with 'Yeah, I know right...' as a response to made it less suspicious. As much as he recalled the conversation, Namjoon made a self conclusion that the childfree marriage was because Seokjin had a trauma.

Now imagine. Seokjin lost his mother when he was 12 and his father was way too busy with the monstrous KIM. Seokjin didn't really got the affection he deserve as his father had a huge deal with work. Seokjin was 16 when he met someone that could gave him comfort, and got pregnant. The 16 years old boy that supposed to be the heir of KIM, a boy from a good family got himself pregnant. Pregnant in a very young age, out of marriage. Seokjin tried to protect the guy who got him pregnant with his own risk. The father was angry, and as the father kept interrogating his son and found the answer, things were all too late.

Not only Seokjin had to bring a child into the world alone. The baby didn't even make it to stay in the world for one day. It ruined his life.

Namjoon had to admit, that the story was somehow familiar. His biological father left his mother when that jerk found out his mother had him. But, at least, Namjoon could be the strength for his mother to keep on going.

"I still remember how Seokjin looked when he lost his baby years ago. He looked lost and refused to eat for a couple of days. His father had to take him in a hospital, and then transferred him into... a mental asylum."

This certain part that Heechul has said to Namjoon was a total heartbreaking...

Seokjin had to stay in a hospital and then been transferred into a mental asylum for almost three months before his aunty, the older sister of Seokjin's mother took him to stay with her family in Japan.

Heechul said that he didn't know the other kid or whoever it was that got Seokjin pregnant, because the family esp Seokjin's father kept it as a secret. Heechul asked Namjoon if the man knew about the mysterious guy who left Seokjin in sorrow, and Namjoon wisely answered 'Some secret should remain secret...' Heechul couldn't agree more and said, that the aunty probably knew the rest of the story.

Namjoon quietly listened the story about Seokjin from Heechul, and they had some more light conversation about the wedding preparations. And then Heechul finished his tea and left Namjoon alone, just right two minutes earlier before Seokjin entered the cafetaria. Cheerfully dragged Namjoon for a dinner in a casual dining restaurant nearby. A dinner that was somehow bitter, for the facts he got in a blink afternoon.
