MECHANICAL LIES ll JIKOOK [Completed]

Chapter 32 (Past)

———
"Hyung... I have a heart cancer.
My time is almost up."

Hearing this, yoongi couldn't help but let out a laugh.

"Jiminie, would you stop with the jokes hahahaha! How is that even possible pff–hahahaha!"

Seokjin wanna laugh too but for jimin to take the topic of a heart cancer as a joke isn't normal at all.

And what's strange is that, he didn't stop yoongi.

He just keeps on wearing a smile.

Yoongi continues, still laughing, "And what? You're blind now and can't see? Pff–hahahaha jiminie, I'm afraid your jokes are too funny

"...yoongi, stop." seokjin sternly stated, serious.

"Seokjin, don't tell me you believe him? hahahahha!"

He couldn't take it anymore, "I said stop!!" he exclaimed at the mint haired. Jimin was left to listen, what else could he do when he no longer have eyes to see.

Inhaling a good amount of air to exhale it afterwards, jimin decides to take charge stopping the two from fighting more.

"jin hyung, yoongi hyung... I– i know this is selfish of me. But, i have a favor to ask. First, can you two listen to me?"

No answer, only silence which made jimin conclude as the two's willingness to listen.

"You see... I've been holding this sickness for the pass two years. I don't have the courage to tell so I keep it all for myself. Jungmin also didn't know."

"Jin hyung, do you remember that rainy day when i called you 6 months ago? Jungmin actually got into an accident that very day. It was a car crash and because of the accident, he lost his eyesight."

Jin couldn't help but cover's his mouth from shock. Such horrible event happened and yet, he was too self-centered to not notice jimin's pain.

The blonde unconsciously glanced beside him where jungmin's bed is, still wearing a smile.

Yoongi gasped, putting every pieces together just as jimin revealed it for them to confirm.

"Jungmin needs my eyes more than i do. I'm gonna die soon anyway so i thought, why not give these eyes to him? That way when I'm gone, a part of me stays with him."

No words were longer exchanged. Jimin has no idea what their reaction is like. Are they angry? sad? displeased? they must be angry huh? This silence can't go on or he will suffocate.

Before jimin could even say something, he felt two different pair of hand, one warm, one cold holding his own ones. Because of this gesture, he somehow felt relief and safe.

Jimin, "I-is it okay to tell you what my favor is?"

Yoongi, "Sure jiminie... tell us."

"C-can i trust you both to keep this a secret? I don't want jungmin to know. Thinking about my most love one getting h-hurt pains me. I want him to live carefree, no worries, no regret." The blonde boy holds tightly on the two hands.

If jimin still have his pair of eyes, tears were likely to be streaming down his pale face right now, a smile accompanying creating a painful and yet peaceful features showing the boy's beautiful define face.

"Promise me to take care of him, promise me you will always be there for jungmin hyung, to guide him through his life even if I'm no longer here. Jungkook as well."

Jin couldn't suppress his tears as he let's them fall down.

"D-don't say things like your gonna l-leave us. Everything will be alright. You will live and be cured, okay?!"

Yoongi stands up and engulf the blonde in a tight hug, "Have hope, there won't be any promises. Jin is correct for once...

Jimin, you will live and take care of him by yourself. You need eachother. Jungmin doesn't need us.
He needs you."

The blonde let out a soft giggle, jin also joins in the hug.

It was in the middle of winter and yet, the warmth spread throughout the place, the once white room somehow were now bright yellow, like a sunshine in the summertime.

If only time could stop at this moment maybe he can wish for such a wonderful dream to come again and again.

But it's impossible. He can't be cured, there is no time left for him to stay. All he can say is a short farewell.

A goodbye before he go and join his parents.

A week later after their visit,
jimin's heart stop beating.
