His CEO || YoonMin ✓

Chapter 32

Author's POV

Yoongi's world had slowly crumbled over the past year. The weight of his past actions and the present situation had become almost unbearable. One evening, he found himself at Taehyung’s doorstep, his emotions in turmoil, seeking solace in his friend's understanding. Fortunately, Jungkook wasn't at home so were his kids.

Taehyung, perceptive as always, welcomed Yoongi inside and let him unburden his heart. As they sat in the dimly lit living room, the weight of Yoongi's guilt bore down on him like an unforgiving mountain.

"I can't do it, Tae," Yoongi choked out, his voice trembling with the storm of emotions within.

"I can't bear this anymore. I don't know how to make things right. I've lost Jimin, and it's all my fault."

Tears streamed down Yoongi's face, his composure finally giving way to the flood of regret and despair that had been building for so long.

Taehyung wrapped his arms around his friend, providing a comforting embrace as Yoongi's sobs echoed in the room. Taehyung knew that Yoongi is the only person at fault in this situation, he's the one who created this mess but seeing his friend who never wavered in the toughest moments, like this actually broke his heart.

The guilt of having pushed Jimin away, of endangering the love they once had, overwhelmed Yoongi.

"I pushed away the love of my life, Tae," he admitted between heart-wrenching sobs. "I threatened to take the lives of his children,MY children, our own flesh and blood, the ones he loves the most. How can he ever forgive me for that? How can I be such a blind person?"

Taehyung held Yoongi tighter, his own heart aching for his friend.

"Yoongi, you've acknowledged your mistakes, and you're trying to change. That's a step forward. Maybe, just maybe, Jimin will see that. You have to keep trying, keep proving that you've changed."

But in that moment, Yoongi felt trapped in his own despair, doubting if he could ever mend the damage he had caused. His breakdown was a raw and painful reminder of the price he had paid for his past actions, a price that included the loss of the love of his life and the deep chasm that separated him from his children. The ones he craved for oh so much.

As Taehyung left Yoongi's side for the night, Yoongi was left alone in the quiet darkness of his thoughts. He knew that his path to redemption was not going to be easy, and it would require much more than just tears and remorse. The weight of his past deeds was a heavy burden, but he was determined to make amends.

With a heavy heart, he wiped his tears away and sat in silence, reflecting on the steps he had taken and the ones he still needed to take. Yoongi couldn't give up; he couldn't let the love he still held for Jimin and their children slip through his fingers.

In the soft glow of a mild, late afternoon sun, Yoongi parked his car a little distance from the kids' kindergarten. His heart raced with anticipation and anxiety as he watched from a hidden spot. He couldn't help but feel like an intruder, an outsider looking into the world that could be his, only if he listened to what the pretty blond who hold his heart, once had to say to him.

He spotted Jimin, a vision of grace and warmth, standing outside the kindergarten gate. The twins, their tiny hands clutching their backpacks, bounded towards him with exuberance, their laughter filling the air like music. Jimin bent down to scoop them up in his arms, their delighted giggles resonating in Yoongi's ears.

Yoongi's heart ached as he watched the twins nuzzle against Jimin, their small faces radiating affection and trust.

The tears welled in Yoongi's eyes, and he had to blink them away. He knew that he had missed so much, so many precious moments that he could never get back. But he was determined to be a part of their lives again, to make amends for the time he had lost.
