"Sorry," Hyunjin chuckled, shaking his head. "I guess, I overshared."

Jimin shook his head, letting him know that it was okay.

"No, I don't mind."

"Thank you."

The two of them looked at each other with a smile, sighing. Jimin stayed silent, not knowing what to reply.

"From the looks of it, I'm guessing you agree with what I said."

"I really do." Jimin nodded. "You know, it hurts to get hurt. But nothing hurts more than losing someone you love."

"Hmm."

There was a moment of silence between them, Hyunjin's presence making Jimin comfortable. It was odd, though. But something about the boy gave him the vibes of warmth. And Jimin liked it.

"What happened to the person you loved?" he asked. He didn't know if he was stepping the boundary or why he was even sharing stuff like this with a stranger. But yet again, conversation was easy with Hyunjin.

"Um it's quite complicated." Hyunjin said, eyes a little reluctant.

"Oh, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. Please, don't be obliged to."

Hyunjin smiled at him.

"Jongin had a..." he started, his eyes getting a little watery. "sick mind. I tried my best to...um..." Hyunjin turned to stare at Jimin, his lips quivering a little. "He was my best friend. And I abandoned him. I was scared."

Jimin's heart ached a little at that. A friend. Hyunjin lost a friend. Jimin did, too. It was surprising how so many things were common between them. Hyunjin pulled out his phone, showing it to Jimin. The lock screen was a picture of two kids hugging. Jimin remembered that photo from looking at it last time.

"We have been friends since childhood. He was my best friend. But...a-a lot of things happened as we grew up. And we drifted apart. I tried to help him, but he was someone so different to me. I was scared to be his friend again. So I-I left him. But only when he-he...left did I regret not being there for him."

Jimin didn't have to know what that 'left' meant. He knew his friend, Jongin was dead now. He placed a comforting hand on Hyunjin's shoulder. The older sighed, pressing a finger to the edge of his eye before forcing a smile on his face.

"So," he said, trying to get his normal demeanour back. "tell me about your story now."

Jimin smiled painfully.

"Unlike you, I lost a person who I was in love with. He-he...um...we didn't get to become friends or even talk. But I lost him. So quickly. He was gone without knowing I love him."

"I'm sorry...." Hyunjin said, his eyes full of sympathy. Jimin pursed his lips, sitting up straight.

"I just hope it isn't this way, you know." Jimin said. "I mean, we deserve better."

"We sure do. And your man sounds really lovely."

"Thanks." Jimin smiled. "Yoongi really is an amazing person."

However, Jimin was surprised to see Hyunjin's face contort into something he didn't expect. Almost a pallid complexion, an expression of shock and a bit of...disappointment.

"What?"

"Nothing. It's just...uh..." Hyunjin trailed. "I'm not a big fan of him, sorry."

Jimin rose his eyebrows. "No, that's alright. Not everyone can like him. I understand."

"Yeah. I know I shouldn't hate him but...um...I couldn't help it."

Jimin frowned. "Why do you hate him then?"

Hyunjin stared at him, before speaking. "Because he is Min Yoonbin's son."

"Okay, and?"

"Min Yoonbin, man." Hyunjin said, a little angered at the mention of his name. "The bastard who kidnapped children and abused them for months. I mean, he was sick in his head. The police had to kill him on encounter after years of searching for him. I don't care if his son wasn't like him but I have my reason to not like him."

ik hyunjin is younger than jimin but just go with it. shh. and hyunjin is the one in the 15th chapter. the long haired guy who sat beside jimin. ik it's all confusing. not to flex or force you to, but i think it'll only make sense if you read the book once again after it's completed. after the explanation chapter.

again, this story is not perfect, i worked and edited it all by MYSELF and only me. so there could be loopholes. be sure to point them out. but make sure you point out a loophole. because some are not holes. but clues. good luck! feel free to ask me any questions. i'll be happy to help you out.
