It Happened In Seoul || JJK ✔

Chapter Three

Kim Taehyung is here to bless you all ;)

The year 2018 was a life changing one for RM. The group he was so lovingly a part of was nearly at the verge of breaking apart in the beginning of the year, they were thinking of disbanding. Things were always a little more hectic and difficult for RM as the leader. Years ago when he was chosen as the leader of his band he did not know that they would become such a phenom he did not know he would have to lead a group of seven people including himself to insurmountable success over time. He always knew that his band members were talented and hardworking but whatever was happening since the past two years was dream like for them. They just did not know how to handle everything. They were not able to take it all.

All of this however, was something that affected RM, the rapper and the leader. Kim Namjoon on the other hand was a simple boy who left his home at a young age to follow his dreams and debuted at the age of nineteen. He had a small family whom he loved dearly but at times he felt guilty for not being there for them. He could only visit his parents and sister twice a year. He had not seen them on any holiday since the last three years. He did not celebrate his or their birthdays with him. He did not attend his sister, Kim Geong Min's graduation last year. He felt inadequate as a brother and a son. As he was growing older he understood the need to keep in touch with family.

He loved getting calls from his cousin, Jadeline, mainly because she rarely called him. She was always busy with her studies and those Maths competitions that she always competed in. His family was not in touch with his Uncle Wook. He was never officially disowned by Namjoon's grandfather but one could say he unofficially was after he married Namjoon's Aunt, Monica. Although Jadeline was only two years younger than his own sister Geong Min, they both did not get along very well. They were just two people who had met twice or thrice in their life and happened to be connected by blood but not heart. After spending so many years with his band members he knew what it meant to be connected by heart sometimes that connection was even stronger than that of blood

But it was different for Namjoon. He had met her for the first time when she was five and he was ten and they just connected instantly. One of the reasons he studied and worked so hard on his English was his cousin. She was his little sister.

When he got a call and heard her sobs on the other side, he felt his heart clench at the sound. He did not even know his Uncle was admitted let alone that he was this severely sick. He could not think of anything else right now, not practice, not BBMAs, nothing. He just wanted to reach to them as soon as possible.

He took a flight over night and left for New York. It was times like these that he really appreciated what fame had done for him. He got a Visa within two hours. He was a little nervous to leave the members behind when they had such a busy schedule but he knew that Jin Hyung and Yoongi Hyung will keep everything in check for him. They had an appearance for Fake Love two days later and him missing in it would make the fans curious especially since he did not only rap in it but also contributed in writing it but he could not let his cousin handle everything alone on the other side of the World, she was just eighteen.

Nothing prepared Namjoon for the moment when he saw his uncle weak and frail in the hospital bed. He had an oxygen mask on his mouth and an IV drip connected to his hand. Namjoon went and sat on the chair beside the bed and took his hand in his own.

"Samchon(Uncle) it is Namjoon." He said softly. His Uncle moved a little and opened his eyes. They looked red and tired. He squeezed his nephew's hand a lightly. He moved his oxygen mask to the side with his shaking hands.

"Nammmjooon-ahh I a..mm not abllle to breath no...w." Uncle Wook said with a lot of difficulty. He could not even complete a single word without stammering.

"Please Samchon don't say anything put the mask back on." Namjoon said to him and tried to move his oxygen mask back on his mouth but his Uncle stopped him.

"N..o. I kno..ww I don't ha..v..ee much time. Please l..oo..k after my girl. Sh..e has n...o one els...e" He said pleadingly.

"What are you saying Samchon? Nothing will happen to you and Jadeline will be just fine." Namjoon did not know whether he was comforting his Uncle or himself.

Namjoon only had one Uncle. He was still a toddler when his Uncle left home and came to a new country. His uncle had just completed his school studies. He was young but very passionate to follow his dream. He wanted to study from Columbia University and he did. Namjoon always admired his Uncle's courage and passion a lot. And now seeing him like this broke Namjoon inside.

The sound of the hospital room door opening distracted Namjoon from his thoughts.

Jadeline walked in with a juice box in her hand. As soon as she saw Namjoon she walked towards him and hugged him. Her father had his eyes closed and was breathing heavily.

Namjoon took her out of the room and they sat on a bench in a quiet hospital hallway. Jadeline just kept her head on his shoulders and kept crying.

"I did not know what to do Oppa. He was doing fine a few months ago then his liver started to become weak and two weeks ago he puked a lot and then fainted. I did not want to disturb you so I did not inform you about any of it. I thought I would be able to take care of it but I couldn't. I am sorry Oppa." She sobbed into his jacket.

"Stop crying Jadeline. I just want you to know even if I am busy do not hesitate to contact me and don't worry you are not alone anymore I am here now." He comforted her by stroking her hair. It was something he did with Taehyung's and Jungkook's hair when they were nervous before a concert.

When they heard a loud buzzing sound coming from inside the room they rushed in there along with some doctors trailing behind them.

Jadeline went and sat down near her father's bed. He looked towards her and smiled brokenly.

"I will no..t b...e alone. My Moni..caaa is there."

Wook Kim took his last breath and left Jadeline all alone in this world.
