♣️Within the Forest♣️(Jikook)

♣️Chapter 22♣️

No one took notice of the descending figure, who had overheard their conversation. Jeongguk found himself dragging towards Jimin's room in which he had locked him up. The guilt was eating him up from the inside as he entered the trashed room. The bedsheets were messily thrown down along with a pack of crayons sprawled over the small old wooden desk. Some pieces of rolled-up paper littered around the chair except one that was neatly placed beside the door. Jeongguk marched towards the parchment and picked it up.

Small tears started to brim his eyes as his trembling hands carssed the paper, observing the innocent apology adorning the page. Jimin's messily scribbled "sworry" between the two stick figures which represented both of them, made him sadly smile at the adorable writing. One was holding a mango while the other one had, what seems like a suitcase in his hand, surrounded by the forest. How can he hurt someone this pure.

The drawing was a slap in his face, a perfect memory of their first encounter, a new start for Jimin, new promises... which he failed to fulfill. The innocent apology was enough to allow his tears to unknowingly cascade down his face. He wasn't someone who would cry over such matters but Jimin is important to him, a pure soul who blindly trusts him with his life but Jeongguk hasn't been the nicest. Jimin deserves better. He has to make it up to him and assure him he doesn't need to change himself, however Jeongguk needs to mend his rules for Jimin. He needs to assure the younger that he's the one at fault and that he would never hurt him.

Wiping away the fresh set of tears, Jeongguk fished out his phone and made a quick call. He needs to fix this before he looses someone he has started to deeply care for.

Jimin spent most of his afternoon with his Hyungs outside. After grabbing the promised ice cream they decided to go to an Arcade and play there. Jimin learned a lot of new games and for a moment he forgot about his worries and fears. Jimin feels trapped, he's not sure what to do, whats the right thing to do. he wants others to take him seriously, not treat him like a child.

After grabbing a light snack from the nearby Subway, they made their way back. The mansion was awfully quite, usually he would see some of the guards walking around or the maids greet him with a smile but no one was there.

The rest noticed this as well however Yoongi stopped them from moving any forward.

"Jimin why don't you go up and we will join you in a while" Yoongi suggested, earning confused looks from the rest but he didn't bother answering them yet.

"Oh okay" Jimin mumbled before making his way upstairs.

There were many thoughts running through his mind however he didn't expect to find his room completely flipped over. If he didn't have a good memory if would have thought he entered someone else's room, but he didn't!

His room had been completely transformed! The bed, study table, dresser everything was replaced by nee items. However the best part was that his room was now filled with dozens of stuff toys! And the best one was the huge bear standing in the middle, hiding something behind his back.

Awed by the beautiful sight before him, Jimin stood there shocked yet pleased. His room was customised according to his taste, filled with soft toys, books and many art supplies.

A loud yell escaped his mouth when he saw the huge bear move and pull something from behind his back. Any normal person would have ran for their lives since in a typical horror movie weird toys tend to have a knife behind them. However this is Jimin we're talking about and even if he yelled out of shock he still stood there looking at the sheet in one of the bears hand while the other one had his apology drawing.
