(Reminder: VOTE & leave Feedback! Going on hiatus after this chapter, basketball season is here! Enjoy :) )
"Saranghaeyo."
I whispered.
I lay the roses onto my mothers tombstone, biting down on my lip preventing me from crying.
Taehyung patted me on the shoulder lightly as we both knelt down staring at my mothers grave.
Eomma, I miss you.
"It's going to be alright Jiyeon."
Taehyung reassured as I side-glanced over at him.
He shot me his rectangular smile, and I gave him a light grin.
I looked back down at my mother's gravestone.
The roses laid in front of her tombstone, it was the second time I came to visit her.
I roamed my fingers on her plaque that read her name,
Seo Jihyo ; Kim Jihyo
I gulped analyzing her name, I tried holding in the tears that were dying to stream out of my hazel eyes, I have to show her I'm doing fine, do this for her Jiyeon ah.
"Eomma..."
I muttered.
Taehyung rubbed my shoulders, sighing.
I looked over at him and he had the softest smile I hadn't seen for awhile apart from his weird actions.
"Jiyeon ah, it's okay to cry, I got you."
Taehyung smiled.
His soft words made me choke on my saliva, he nodded his head assuring me it was okay.
I glanced down at my mothers grave, my smile fading.
Mom why did you have to die?
I didn't hold it in as tears gently streamed down my cheeks, some teardrops colliding with the dry stained blood from earlier.
"Jiyeon."
I faced Taehyung, sitting with my knees up to my chest, I forced a grin onto my saddened face.
Taehyung's thumb appeared under my face as he wiped my teardrops off.
"It's going to be okay."
Taehyung faltered.
Memories flashing so fast before my eyes, as tears welled up in my tired eyes, I sat on the grass, my knees up to my face; there I laid, sobbing endlessly.
Eomma please come back.
-
Taehyung panicked as he sat and watched Jiyeon cry into her arms.
His eyes widened, hitting his forehead with his fists.
What does Jimin do? think, you idiot!
Taehyung wounded up just watching her cry, not moving as he himself laid his head in his palms.
You both were exhausted and done for.
-
The sun began to set, as the sun was dying down the moon gradually appeared, taking the sun's place as Jiyeon lay asleep while Taehyung drove.
Jiyeon had promised Taehyung for a day worthwhile together, doing everything Taehyung wanted, and that was what they were doing.
-
I fluttered my eyes open slowly as the light seeped through, my eyes opening slowly.
I squinted my eyes to find a red light beaming into my eyes.
I groaned, shielding the light with my palm.
I sat upright, looking over to see Taehyung staring at me smiling innocently.
"Wae, what's going on?"
I asked, rubbing my eyes, as I yawned.
Taehyung chuckled as he refocused at what seemed to be the stoplight ahead of us.
"You cried yourself to sleep at the cemetery, so I carried you into the car."
Taehyung explained.
"I did? I don't remember much."
I grumbled.
I assumed the green light popped out as the vehicle began moving.
I peeked out the window to see transparent stars emerged in the sky.
"Taehyung oppa.. can't we just go home? I'm tired."
I pouted.
Taehyung sighed, staring over at you.
"Not yet, we'll go home after."
Taehyung advised.
"Wae? ugh I'm sleepy."
I whined, forcefully wiping away my dreaded eyes that kept shutting.
"Just hold this for now."
Taehyung said as he grabbed my hands, and shoved a note into them.
"What is this?"
"Just keep it."
I did as he said and slipped it into my pockets.
"Trust me Jiyeon ah this is very impo-"
My ears drowned out along with my eyes that dropped slowly,
I was out.
*
"Taehyung oppa what are you doing!"
I complained.
Taehyung concealed my eyes with his long warm hands, we had exited the car and he was now leading me to whatever he planned.
"We're almost there just be patient."
Taehyung chimed.
I sighed deeply, the ground beneath us felt hard and solid, I moved my hands trying to sense where we were heading.
"Okay Jiyeon, we're nearing the area."
Taehyung warned.
"Taehyung oppa, where are we going?"
There was no response as I felt my feet stop and we were no longer moving.
"Taehyung?"
I called.
No answer.
His hands still covered my eyes from seeing, but I felt the cold breeze hit my face, we were outside.
"Taehyung I'm not playing where did you tak-"
Taehyung removed his hands from my shielded eyes, immediately I wanted to tear up.
We stood on the very own, Seoul City Wall.
I gasped scanning the buildings below.
It was so amazingly beautiful, it was unexplainable.
The buildings lit up at night, lights gleaming, they all matched in unison where it was a masterpiece.
We both stood at the top, I raced over towards the ledge and peered over,
"Taehyung.."
I trailed off.
I glanced over at him as he stood, hands in his pockets.
I lumbered towards him, looking up at him.
"Taehyung this is the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me."
I thanked.
Taehyung lightly punched my shoulder, as I laughed.
"Ya you pabo ah, that's it?"
Taehyung pouted.
I chuckled as I squeezed him tightly, playfully as he groaned.
I let go of him as he acted over-dramatic.
"Ouch jugeullae (you want to die)!"
Taehyung teased as he held up his fists.
"Aniya, I was just kidding!"
I shrieked running away!
"Ya come back here!"
Taehyung called behind me as I began sprinting.
I raced down the ledge, plopping down onto the grass that gave a closer look of Seoul.
I sat and watched the sky, distracted at the beautiful city lights.
I didn't even notice as I almost fell over, as arms wrapped around my neck.
"Ya let go!"
I whined.
Taehyung pretended to choke me as he even made strange sounds before releasing me.
He sat down next to me as I stared over at him.
He looked paler than usual as I cupped his chin to stare at me.
"Ya are you okay?"
I asked.
He nodded his head, lazily moving my hand away from his face.
"I just feel tired, and a bit weak."
He coughed out.
"Taehyung gwenchena? want me to get you som-"
Taehyung began coughing louder, shocking me as drops of blood drooled out of his mouth.
"Taehyung!"
I gasped.
I quickly took off my cardigan I was wearing and immediately began wiping his mouth.
Blood began to spew out of his mouth as he coughed wildly.
"Are you okay, do you need food or wate-"
"I'm not hungry."
Taehyung choked.
He began oozing blood into my cardigan, as I held it up for him.
"Taehyung I'll go get help, stay here and don't mov-"
BANG!
Everything went pitch black.
*
Taehyung, Taehyung.
I heard footsteps, heart pumping fast, I felt as if I was in the air floating.
Taehyung, Taehyung.....
*
"NOO!"
I screamed.
I sat upright quickly, feeling a down pour of sweat drizzle down my forehead.
Where am I?
I looked down to see blankets covering me, I was lying in familiar sheets.
Green covered sheets, the room smelling like Japchae.
I was in Taehyung's room.
I removed the covers off of my figure, hopping out of bed.
I reached over and checked the desk side clock,
8am
It's a brand new morning, memory loss; I couldn't remember what happened.
"Taehyung oppa!"
I called.
I rushed towards his bedroom door peeking out.
"Taehyung Oppa!"
I shouted.
No response.
I began scrambling through my pockets for my phone.
My phone was not in my pockets and instead I pulled out a crumbled piece of paper.
What is this?
I opened it, squinting my eyes to read it.
The words were blotchy, but I noticed it was a letter from Taehyung.
--
Jiyeon it's me, your favorite oppa, Taehyung!
Hey so I decided to write this before it's too late.
I held the letter tightly in my hands, heading towards his bed, as I sat down, continuing on.
Thank you for everything, for what we did today, you had my back through thick & thin.
You made me happy a lot and I'm sorry I impacted on your life badly.
You were the last in our gang, even though nobody accepted you, I did; I still do.
I thought of you as a younger sister, I will admit I liked you for awhile.
But no worries I tried to contain my feelings for you, but that failed.
You were the last person I wanted to spend my day with.
Please do better in the future, you're welcome to live in my house with my parents, since you have nowhere else to go.
Thank you for being my best friend, my first love, my dongsaeng, and the person I'll never forget.
I'll say hi to your mom for you, saranghaeyo Kim Jiyeon & the others.
Love,
Kim Taehyung.
--
I was a complete wreck, he couldn't be right?!
I slowly began to hyperventilate and tears one by one cascaded out of my now bloodshot eyes.
"No..no.no..this isn't happening."
I grumbled.
Another note followed after that one, I pulled it out scanning through it.
A doctors note.
It was dates of Taehyung going in out of the hospital,
The first date starting on the day, we went to the CD shop.
He had stopped coming after a couple of days there.
Please tell me this isn't what I think it was.
I bite on my hand, tears now uncontrollably falling.
I was hyperventilating.
I fell onto the floor of his room, gripping onto the doctors note.
"Taehyung no this can't be!"
I screamed.
I ran my fingers through my hair as I began coughing crazily.
I won't believe it, I can't.
"Taehyung oppa!"
I whimpered.
Those words printed at the top, I couldn't believe it, I didn't want to.
I dropped the note, eyeing the title above.
Taehyung has lung cancer.
