Flashback
Jimin's pov
I was 7 years old back then, that was when the world came crumbling down right in front of me, right in front of my parents room. I watched as my happiness slipped past. I slowly brought my hands up and gently covered my ears. I don't want to hear anything. Someone please, anyone, please save me, take me away from, anywhere just far from this lie.
"When are you going to tell him?"
"Never"
"I guess that's the best choice, considering how we killed his mother, and how I replaced her."
I slowly backed away, my legs trembling. No I didn't hear anything, yes I did not, all I need to do is forget.
They took away my smile, my innocence. Then why do I pretend as if I was clueless? It comes flooding back, the memory of the night I found the truth, and the night I lost myself caught up in someone else's lie. Since then I was a little boy, who pretended to be Jimin.
Recently we made a new friend, his name was Taehyung. We quickly became closed to him, but that wasn't all.
"Why are you pretending to be happy?
My smile faded and quickly turned into a frown. Why am I pretending? I just wanted the pain to go away.
"I don't know, I guess I was too caught up in someone else's lie, tell me how can I be happy again?"
He looked taken aback, but then he smiled at me.
"You could start by telling someone how you feel when you're ready to, that could lift the weight of your shoulder. You don't have to smile if you don't feel like it, it's okay to not be okay." He turned towards me and pulled me into a warm hug, for the first time since that night I felt at home. I was finally home.
I let my tears roll down, I gripped onto his shirt.
My sobbing turned to little whimpers, from little whimpers to occasional hiccups. During all those times he never let go of me, he held me tightly and patted my back, he told me it was okay to cry.
