Flashback

"So what are we going to do about the lie that you made up hyung? Wouldn't Ji Eun get mad at you for this? I mean- she lost most of her memories and she doesn't really know that you're just lying."

Yoongi clenched his jaw as he looked at Jungkook who had his arm crossed over his chest.

"I want to tell the truth and nothing but the whole truth. I've became a lying machine just because of everything that's happened. What if she finds out about the truth herself? What if her memories come back and becomes aware that she's living a lie? I can't let that happen Kook, she won't trust me anymore. So, I need to tell her everything. I can't afford to lie to her again because I promised. And I feel guilty about that."

Jungkook looked around and checked if there were any people around. Then he looked at his hyung.

"So you'll tell her about what happened? What really happened to you and Sheena?"

Yoongi looked away and let out a heavy sigh. He put his hands inside his pocket and pulled out a gold necklace with his and Ji Eun's initials.

"I need to tell her everything, even my deepest secrets because I want her to know that I can't bear to lose her. I want her to know that she can trust me enough even though I'm a pushover. She may even get her memory back by telling her the truth. "

Jungkook took a deep breath and closed his eyes, trying his best not to argue with Yoongi.

"Hyung, let me tell you something. I don't want you to experience what happened to you and Sheena all over again. All of us saw how depressed you were that time...."

He sighed and suppressed the urge to cry. "Even after Sheena's death, I can tell that you still love her hyung."

Yoongi let a tear fall from his orbs and his breath hitched upon the pain inside his chest. "Ji Eun...she's my life now. I-I almost lost her once. Now I can't let anything happen to us. I won't let anything like what Sheena and I experienced because it really hurts."
