Jimin yawned, waiting is the one thing he hates in his life the most. He can physically feel his patience dripping off his body, irksome to the core.

He took a careless glance towards his friend who's sitting beside him on the waiting chair, fingers fidgeting and head lowered dolefully.

"Hey, you okay?" Jimin leaned closer to him, trying to hide the sudden worry in his voice. Taehyung licks his lips and nods his head, forcing a smile too.

Jimin sighs and rested his arm around taehyung's shoulder, "are you stressing for even this small appointment?"

"No, i'm not—it's just..." Taehyung's voice breaks, hand slowly raised to place on his stomach, "hope everything is fine this time"

Jimin smiles, "Everything will be fine tae"

Taehyung nods. Nearly a month passed and he was starting to show a little. Though his baggy clothes would hide it without any doubt. Still he saw himself gaining weight, feeling tingly inside his stomach almost all the time.

It would have been greatly exciting if not the melancholy settled inside his heart.

Though time passed quickly, his mind was still clutched to the very day everything crumbled down in his life.

His eyes never greeted jungkook after that miserable day, nor his voice. It was like, suddenly that man disappeared from his life.

Taehyung was taken care of by jimin who takes every responsibility to make him comfortable and at ease. He tries everything possible to make him smile genuinely, to help him to move on in his life. And this very fact leaves a path of guilt in taehyung's heart.

That despite his friend's every tries, he wasn't able to get himself out of the misery gripped in his dull soul. He was trying, but was failing.

He would've given up and taken a break from forcing himself to forget every pain. But that wasn't the case, he had to cease the flow of pain this very time as a little soul was growing inside him.

His persistent gloomy mood only added more protectiveness in jimin. Though taehyung was now living with him, in the min mansion, his worry for his friend's health lessened no well.

Nearly a week later, taehyung's phone had got a call. Luckily for him, taehyung was taking a deep slumber after a exhausted period of participating in gardening with yoongi and nivi. Receiving the call, jimin got to hear jungkook's ragged voice.

He feared he'd crush the phone in his hand while shouting and hissing at the cheater he loathes. He warned him very clearly to never try to reach taehyung, yet jungkook was shamelessly calling him time after time. He was forced to change taehyung's number just so immediately then after.

Since then, he never really got any problems from jungkook. Yoongi had said he barely comes to office, only seen twice or thrice. He was probably with that women, no doubt.

Yoongi also mentioned how he avoided meeting with jungkook and left the office soon when he gets to hear about his visit. Yoongi wouldn't say but jimin could sense the sorrow in him, he lost his brother. He knows a part of him still longs to talk to jungkook, be with him and try to help him get to the right path but he'd said he won't be there for him.

Maybe he was feeling this despair as he knows how jungkook fears loneliness or maybe 'cause he got to know through the employees that jungkook had gone through a panic attack. And that time, he wasn't there to help.

It was easy for jimin to completely hate jungkook after the cruelty he did to his friend. But it the same for yoongi, and namjoon. Obviously, not for taehyung.
