Caught in a lie? Sequel

"Yes... I understand sir, I'm sorry, I'll get it done right away..." Taehyung spoke softly, keeping his eyes lowered all the while hoping his apology worked as he didn't want to agitate his boss any further than he already was. He guessed it worked as he heard his boss walk away with a slight gruff. "This is the last straw Kim Taehyung!"

His mind was cloudy. Again. He didn't know why his mind couldn't forget about him. Taehyung breathed harshly. How many years has it been Kim Seokjin, since I last saw you? He chuckled quietly to himself. "I even thought of names of our kid, I didn't know if it would be a boy or girl...", he whispered to no one in particular, tears were threatening to fall and Taehyung didn't dare to cry here. If someone saw him they would definitely think something was up and Taehyung didn't want anyone's pity.

They did find the killer and Taehyung was baffled when he found out it was no other than Jungkook, the person he once treasured. At least he was behind bars now. The bullet didn't hit Jin's belly but it was enough to kill the unborn child he was carrying as well. Just his luck huh? Taehyung didn't know what to do anymore. He hung his lab coat on the rack and manoeuvred his way outside of the hospital. He looked up at the sky which normally would be dull yet today it contained millions of stars. They looked ethereal. Taehyung was mesmerised. However, deep down Taehyung knew Jin was more beautiful than the stars, hell, he was more beautiful than the universe. He inhaled the muddy scent around him and slowly exhaled. Taehyung was just about to head to his car in the parking lot when he heard a voice.

"TaeTae!", he heard Jimin - his co-worker - walking towards him, his arms linked with a grumpy guy supposedly named Suga. Taehyung had seen him a few times but the said male never said anything. Well, to him anyway. Taehyung looked at their hands, they were linked just like they were back in high school. Just looking at them made Taehyung's eyes sting. Jimin must have noticed as he let go of Suga's side and embraced Taehyung in a suffocating hug. The hug was surprising as Jimin rarely hugged anyone besides Suga but Taehyung was all but surprised. He was emotionless. He only wanted to be embraced by Jin. "It will be okay TaeTae", Jimin spoke gently as if knowing he could break the precious boy into pieces just by using words, well it was words that had gotten him into this mess, everything he had said to Jin before he- well before he got murdered.

"I'm ok really", Taehyung did his best at attempting a smile, but it must have looked forced as he saw his friend looking at him wearily.

"Uh...well, I should be heading home, bye guys!", Taehyung waved to the couple. The apartment was the last place he wanted to go. Since Jin wasn't there, it didn't feel like home anymore. He hardly went there and if he did it would result in nightmares from which he couldn't escape. He walked to his car, that too reminding him of a certain pink haired male. Today would be it. Today he will do it. Today he will meet Jin and his baby in heaven. Without thinking Taehyung started walking, he abandoned his car and let his feet carry him until he reached a bridge. He never did learn how to swim.

Sometimes you just have to take a breath and...jump.
