The Talented

Chapter 20

"I know I sound selfish and clingy but I can't help the way I feel. I know I will see him almost every day we are there but I won't really get to spend any time with him" I finish and Sejin sighs. "Jimin you're not clingy or selfish. He is your mate and that is why you are feeling this way. I know that you probably have some separation anxiety because of what happened last time you guys were apart for a while, but the other guys are there to protect you. Like you said you will get to see him every day so don't stress too much" Sejin says and I nod.

"Why don't you get some sleep?" Sejin says and I shake my head. "I rather just think and get my thoughts together but thanks anyway," I say and bring my knees to my chest. I wrap my arms around them and look out the window.

30 minutes later

We just got to Daegu. We were dropping off Yoongi, then Taehyung off at their houses, and then we were going to our hotel. We were rounding a corner in a neighborhood and then we stopped. I assume we were at Yoongi's because Sejin got out and so did Yoongi. Yoongi grabbed his stuff and waved before going into the house. Sejin jumped back in and we headed to Taehyung's.

It didn't take us long to get to his house. He said his goodbyes and got his luggage and went inside the house. Again Sejin got back in, and we headed to the hotel. The suites we got had 2 rooms that shared a living room. 1 suite had me and Sejin, the other had Jin, Namjoom, Hobi, and Jungkook.

When we got to the hotel and up to our rooms I just sat in my room staring out the window. I got a call on my phone but I ignored it. It then started ringing again and I saw that it was Pil-woo, aka my appa. I then answered the phone. "Hello," I say. "Jimin are you okay? I sensed something was off" my appa says. "I'm just going through some separation anxiety appa. I'm fine though" I say. "Jimin you don't sound okay. You sound heartbroken. Did something happen with your mate?" He says.

"No appa. I'm fine. It's just I'm used to being with them especially since my heat because they wouldn't want to leave my side. I'm literally in the same town they are in and probably a couple of miles down the road from them. But all I feel is sadness even though they don't visit their family often and finally get to spend some time together. I'm selfish and clingy no matter what everyone says. I'm a bad mate because all I can focus on are my feelings" I rant.

"Jimin my boy, you have a mate and this is normal. Jimin have you ever felt their pain or sadness and tried to fix it" Pil-woo asks. "Yeah," I say. "Then how can you be selfish. You tried to brighten their mood keep them feeling happy. You are a good mate by doing that. I'm sure they miss you but have you ever thought about it in reverse. Don't you think they miss you when you come to visit me? I bet you they do. So it is normal to feel this way son" he says and I finally understand.

"Thanks, appa. It is getting late. I'll talk to you soon" I say and we say our goodbyes then hang up. I sit here thinking for a few more seconds before getting under the covers of the bed. I plug my phone in and turn the lights off. I don't know how long it took me to sleep but I eventually did.

The next morning

Narrator's POV

It was now morning and the boys had this day to explore since it was supposed to be their travel day. Jimin actually ended up going to sleep at 5 in the morning before sunrise. All the boys besides Yoongi and Taehyung were going to go out so they all got up at 9 am. Sejin had to wake Jimin up and he got ready. They were all finished and had already eaten by 10 am, so they headed out to explore.

The boys found it weird that Jungkook and Jimin were very quiet. "Jimin, Jungkook is there something wrong?" Jin asks. "I miss Taehyung," Jungkook says and they all look at Jimin. "Oh um yeah, I'm okay. I just didn't sleep that much" Jimin says and this concerned all the present members.
