Siri POV

My heart broke for Jungkook as he cried and held me tightly. But what could say or do when the feelings he wants me to reciprocate just aren't there?

I mean, sure, Jungkook made my heart flutter a few times and we strangely have a lot in common, but my feelings never went deeper because I had Yoongi.

I never thought about Jungkook except during passing thoughts, when I saw banana milk, or when he was right in front of me and that bunny smile of his comes out. Plus that time I wasn't sure if he was trying to steal me from Yoongi or not, which is now obvious that he was trying to steal me.

Most of the time I had Yoongi on my mind. He's the first person I think of when I wake up and the last person I think of before I go to sleep. I spend most of my free time with him so I feel a much deeper connection with Yoongi.

"I'm really sorry Jungkook... Please understand... I just... don't have those feelings for you..."

His crying died down and he was just sniffling now. His arms around my waist loosened and he nodded his head while at the same time he nuzzled into my lower stomach.

"Don't be sorry." He mumbled into my tummy. "It's my fault. All my damn stupid fault." His voice quivered at the end as he stood up and wiped his tears while clearing his throat.

My heart broke even more seeing him so... broken...

JK: "I'm sorry.  For everything.  For the way I treated you in the last few months during our time and for not making that connection with you like I should have in this time."

Siri: "Koo–"

JK: "I gotta go. Tell everyone I'm not feeling too well to celebrate tonight."

Before I could say anything, he took a step towards me, held my face gently and kissed my lips tenderly for a second. He then quickly turned and walked away, leaving me all stunned and confused.

Jungkook's POV

I can't believe it.  I lost her.   My wife.   My soulmate.  My other half.   My everything.

Why'd I have to come back to this time?!

Why'd I have to ruin everything?!

Why didn't I realise until it was too late?!

Why? Why?! WHYYYY???!?!!?

I wanted to scream and shout. I wanted to rage out and break things. I wanted a tonne of bricks to just drop on me and end me.

As I walked out of Siri's apartment, I saw him.

The reason for my failure in connecting with my wife again. 

I don't know why but something came over me. I stomped over to him with determination and only one thing on my mind.  Her.

"Kook? What are you doing here? I thought we were meeting you at the restaurant?" Yoongi asked, curious as to why I was at Siri's apartment.

As I got closer, Yoongi's eyes widened at seeing the state of my tear stained face and red puffy eyes and nose.

Y: "Have you been crying? What happened?"

I grabbed Yoongi by his shirt collar a little aggressively and he was taken back at my action.

It's now or never.

"Lilies!" I said sternly, which made Yoongi look at me with confusion.

I gripped his shirt collar and continued...

"Her favourite flowers are lilies! She likes tiger lilies the most so if you want to make a date that little more special then buy her a bouquet of tiger lillies."

Y: "What the–"

I ignored Yoongi's confused question and just rambled out whatever I could remember.

"Seafood. She hates the smell of fish so never take her to a seafood restaurant unless you wanna see her scrunch her face in disgust the whole time or see her vomit.  The cold. Always keep a jersey or hoodie in your car because she hates the cold. She says she can handle it but trust me, she can't."

I wanted to cry more but I tried to stop my tears from flowing out again by sniffling and scrunching my eyes between sentences.

Y: "Is this Siri you're talking about? How do you–"

"Massage her head and neck whenever you can. She likes it right at the back in the middle of her neck and right behind her ears. If you're behind spooning her, rub circles into her chest. They'll both help her sleep. Don't tickle her feet unless you want to get kicked in the face. I learnt that the hard way. She likes 3 sugars in her coffee. Make sure it's caramel. That's her favourite flavour."

Y: "How do you know all this?"

"When it's that time of the month for her, keep stock of banana milk, mint chocolate chip ice-cream and the pepero sticks. And be sure to let her watch the Little Mermaid, Ratatouille or Sailor Moon. And keep her away from Avengers Endgame during that time coz she'll be a crying blubbering mess when our favourite superhero dies."

Y: "Kook..." He said while looking at me sympathetically.

"Her eyes go a deep ocean blue when she's sad or upset so make sure they are always light blue, like blue glacier water. Keep sending her sweet text messages every day. Don't ever let anyone convince you that she's a naggy pain in the ass because she's far from it. And never, ever stop telling her you love her every day. I swear to God, if you don't look after her and treat her like the Queen she is, I'm coming for you Hyung."

Yoongi's eyes widened and he froze, not believing everything I just said and knew about Siri. My grip on his shirt loosened and I let him go.

"Oh, and I know you're into cats, but please take her to the dog cafe too. There's a few dogs and puppies she'll love and I think there might even be a few you'd like. I think one named Holly might be your type of dog."

I quickly wiped the stray tear that fell and cleared my throat, "I can't make it tonight for dinner. I'm not feeling well as you can tell."

Y: "But–"

"Promise me you'll take care of her and make her happy." I looked Yoongi dead in the eyes, making sure he knew how serious I was.

Y: "Jung–"

"Please Hyung. Just promise me." Tears started to swell in my eyes again as I tried to compose myself by gripping my hands into fists and clenching my jaw.

Yoongi swallowed thickly and nodded his head. "I promise Jungkook-ah."

"Thank you." I nodded and sniffled as I wiped my tears that had fallen, "I'll see you around Hyung."

With that, I turned and quickly walked away before Yoongi could say anything more.
