《Kiss √》TWENTY-THREE
Advertisement
nearly two weeks jimin stayed locked up in haru's room waiting for her to awake. only sometimes would he leave for food. he only ate enough to keep him living. he didn't realize how much he needed her till she almost left him again.
their once cheery home has spiraled into a pit of darkness. gloom washed away the smiles from their faces. without the presence of jimin they were nothing, it was all of them together or none.
namjoon had almost recovered. he still had light bruises painting him, but it was all bearable pain. he was able to move around and function like he would on a normal day.
he liked to visit haru at least once a day. it was like his cells were eating him away, he couldn't help but think it was his fault she got hurt. the guilt lit him up like a flame. it swallowed him whole, tearing away bits of his heart.
her very presence made him want to stab needles into himself, but he still found himself in her room late at night waiting for her along with jimin. namjoon reckoned jimin was the only other person he had seen aside from the occasional jin.
jimin's thoughts burned him away like a fire. he hated himself. haru had tried to come back into his life. he missed her, but he pushed her away. he slapped her and tore her heart into little shreds.
it was all his fault she ended up like this. if he hadn't slapped her then maybe she wouldn't have been at the bank that day. everything spiraled out of control again, he was just ill-fated.
he found his tears crawling away from him yet again. every time he stared at her lifeless body. if he could do it all again, he would.

he discovered himself singing to her again. maybe she could hear him in her slumber. maybe his sweet voice would wake her up again. his voice cracked as he held back the tears that escaped racing down his cheek.
" Now promise me, oh, oh
Several times a day, oh, oh
Even if you feel that you are alone, oh, oh
Don't throw yourself away, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hold on for a moment
Intertwine our pinkies
And promise me now, oh, oh, oh, oh "
namjoon would often listen to jimin singing his sorrows away. it was heart warming, and it eased his mind. he paused outside the door, setting his ear to the wall as jimin sang, not wanting to disturb him.
namjoon walked inside as he sat by jimin, "jimin please join us for lunch today."
jimin needed to come back, it was distressing for namjoon and the others to see him like this. nobody was happy without him.
jimin's sunken eyes met namjoon's. it was a look full of pain. he was broken, shattered inside.
"hyung i feel so guilty." jimin croaked with the growing lump in his throat, "she wanted me back in her life, but i didn't."
namjoon let jimin rest his head onto his shoulder as they stared at haru together. the dusk seeped through the air. the room was laced thick with shadows.
"jiminie don't say that. you had your reasons."
the guilt seeped through namjoon as well. if namjoon hadn't brought her along everyone would be at peace. he knew it was all his fault deep down. namjoon pressed his fingers across his temple, pursing his lips into a straight line.
jimin eyes welled up as he looked at haru, "i didn't even give her a chance."

jimin's heart was heavy. it weighed him down, bringing him to rock bottom.
"hyung what if she doesn't wake up."
jimin held back the stinging feeling in his eyes. the forming tears in his eyes made his vision dusty while staring into namjoon's eyes.
"she will jimin." namjoon paused, "i'm sure about that. she's a fighter if anything."
"just think about all the times she's tried to murder me," namjoon joked in attempt to ease the mood.
a faint smile surpassed jimin's lips.
he let out a small chuckle amongst his tears, "technically you jumped out of the tree-"
"well i wouldn't have had to if it weren't for your sister." namjoon interrupted as he pouted.
namjoon glanced towards haru, gazing at her fluttering eyes. her fingers were twitching.
namjoon peered at her, "wait doesn't she look like she's twitching?"
the room became dead silent. namjoon and jimin locked glances, staring at haru's lifeless body.
without warning, alarms blared. an ear-splitting wail echoed through the room. a couple bullets sounded through the walls. the house almost shook from the impact.
jimin jolted back as his heart rate shot up, "my life just can't get any better."
red lights flashed furiously in the corners of their home.
"what great timing for someone to fucking break in" namjoon yelled as he heard another bullet.
namjoon's eyebrows furrowed, he wore a puzzled expression. his mouth slightly agape as he blinked. his eyes were fixed at the white wall, deep into thought. they didn't have anything for anyone to rob.
a bomb exploded within him.
"fucking hell," his eyes became wild, "jimin where did you keep the package?"
jimin stopped as his pupils dilated, his heart was ready to explode.
"i gave it to kook."
"fuck."
the robbers were after what they had stolen from the bank. they couldn't let it be stolen.
namjoon grabbed a gun off the counter. he cocked it with his right hand.
jimin clasped his hands over his ears, "i'm definitely killing taehyung after this! it's too damn loud. "
he stopped midway and looked towards haru for a split second.
"what are we going to do about her?" jimin paused, "we can't just leave her."
haru's fingers shifted. her eyelids trembled. it seemed as if she was coming back into reality.
"hyung, i think we have another problem here."
namjoon cracked his head back.
haru's eyes had snapped open staring right into namjoon's.
