Sorry for the mistakes 🙏🙏🙏🙏
"I told you not to follow me, didn't i? Go away, got to your parents" he tried to sound firm, but his voice was smooth as honey for the panicked boy.
"H-hyung i-m s-scared I don't have parents. "
Jin is in dilemma about what should he do with this Jeongguk boy who is persistently following him.
He is himself a 10-year-old boy.
On top of runaway for who knows how long and from who knows whom.
He just knows that someone want him dead and following him around.
He somehow managed to skip away from those, but he doesn't know when he will be found out by them.
Likewise, he looked at the black-haired boy who is sniffling.
Looking so fragile and vulnerable while sucking his thumb, tears prickling his eyes.
Those teary eyes begging him silently.
Desperately wanting someone to hold him.
Jin felt his heart turned cold at the gaze of this boy.
He himself is in need of someone, but he is a runaway and cannot be with anyone unless he wants them hurt.
Jeongguk ran to him and hugged his stomach begging in slow whisper "Don't leave me alone I'm scared"
"Don't leave me, I don't have anyone beside you, they killed my daddy." The child cried out, clinging to him desperately.
Jin sucked a deep breath at the traumatizing information.
Then he realized how desperate this boy must have been to stay with someone he felt safe with.
He realized how this tiny creature endured the nightmare of seeing his father being killed in front of his innocent and pure eyes.
And this boy chooses him to trust and be with.
It was brave of Jeongguk to trust him while he himself doesn't trust anyone.
Right then and there, he decided.
As he grabbed Jeongguk's hand and ran for dear life.
Jin himself was a child but growing up in streets and having his head bounted for whatever reason. He was much more matured than a 10 years old child should be.
After running who knows how long, they stopped to catch up their breath and slipped between in the alley to an abandoned building.
Little did they know they have something deadly waiting for them much more than they could endure.
They made a mistake.
There was a group of underground linked Gangs.
Since that day, they learn about mafia stuff.
One day, they were all killed by Jeongguk himself.
You asked why?
Jin was silently suffering on the hands of these goons by working god knows what?
Once, Jeongguk found Jin.
Sprawling on the floor, barely breathing.
He ran to Jin and cradle him in his arms.
"H-hyung w-what happened?"
"Nothing serious Jeongguk I'm fine. are you fine? "
Turned out They threatened to make Jeongguk a gang member, so Jin trade himself to them.
So that Jeongguk can study and live a normal life while he is suffering. Jeongguk was that much dear to him at that point.
Jin was Jeongguk's safe place where he could trust his elder brother.
While Jeongguk is a ray of hope in Jin's life.
They both were each other's home.
Jeongguk was practicing boxing, shooting behind Jin's back.
To accomplish his revenge, to kill the killer of his father.
And for his safety in the school too because he was bullied.
He was built tiny.
So, he was the perfect target for the prey to those rich heirs.
He was less interested in books and beyond passionate on guns and boxing.
At the age of 10 he killed all the members mercilessly in a blink of an eye.
That's how Jin gave him a name as “GRIM REAPER” because when Jeongguk land a hand on someone in rage they would never make out alive.
Then they both ran with the remaining money and treasure.
Eventually, one day they came face to face with the people who want Jin dead, and they killed all of them while covering each other and side to side.
And that's how they live together, and other members joined them eventually.
Jin sacrificed so much for Jeongguk.
He became parents to Jeongguk.
He raised Jeongguk while he was himself a child.
That's how Jin holds a special place in Jeongguk's heart.
And that person is in critical condition right now.
Jin was always aware if Jeongguk is slightly hurt.
Jin was always early to notice his discomfort.
Jin was always first to notice his anger and calm his nerves down soothingly.
Jin is always first to notice his hunger and make sure he has his stomach full.
They why?
Why is he late?
He just had one chance to be early instead of Jin then
Why?
They were so late?
He was so late?
Jeongguk is trembling in fear.
He is hyperventilating.
Hell, he doesn't dare to think anything negative of his careless consequences.
Jin would forgive his mistake this time too, right?
His Jin Hyung would slightly scold him and becomes all healthy and happy this time too.
Because…
Because he always forgives Jeongguk, no matter how big his mistake is.
No matter how childish, he acts in front of Hyung.
He will always be forgiven.
He is his Hyung baby bunny.
That is how much Hyung loves him.
His younger brother to whom he raised with so many patience
Unconditional love
Utmost Care
And Great Sacrifices.
He would be forgiven this time to, right??
"Sorry." Doctor Kang whispered.
There was a pin drop silence.
Silence that hurt physically and emotionally.
Silence that is louder than a fired gun.
Silence that made the heart scream out in agony.
"You are a Quack, isn't it? You fraud do your work as you should" Jimin Yelled, breaking the Silence with his angered voice.
“Sorry” Doctor again dared to whisper.
"Keep your sorry to yourself and do your job, go again, you don't deserve to have a degree of a doctor." Jimin ordered as if that's what the doctor is waiting for.
His command.
"We can't save him. He is shot on the head and by the time you brought him it was already too late" Doctor again gave the daring answer.
"......"
"...... "
"......"
"......"
"......"
"It's better to start the funeral" Doctor said in contrast to the way he is feeling inside because Jin is his colleagues.
They have become a good buddy during the past years.

Life is unpredictable.
Nothing last forever.
Everything happens for good.
Can somebody explain
What is good in this incident?
It's good because someone lost their safe place?
It is good because someone lost their lover?
It's good because someone lost their friends?
It's good because they lost a comrade?
A few hours ago everything was fine, Jin was laughing and shouting at them for teasing Taehyung.
They were all happy and goofy.
Look at the Hours after.
Now everything is crumbling down before them without any support for those crumbling walls.
They have lost a sense of time.
They lost their way out of their grief.
Furthermore, they didn't think this day will come.
Where they would realize how much each other matters to their lives
How each and every moment count as Precious.
How everything deserves to be cherished.
How everything have their own time, places, and worth.
How much important certain someone might become in one's life.
How much it is important to express our feeling because you never know.
You never know when you will be left alone.
To regret
Or to never feel alive again.
Even though they didn't exchange their feeling. But they had bond especial to themselves.
They didn't need to voice out, but they understand each other without even saying anything.
That is their things.
They understand each other best.
But now everything is shattered in front of their eyes.
Their smile,
Their heart which was started to beat, but it became silent even before it can beat healthily.
Like before the storm.
Doctor was about to go to give them their privacy, but Jimin ran to him.
"P-Please s-save h-him w-we a-are s-sorry w-we d-didnt c-came o-on t-time p-please s-say s-sorry t-to h-him. W-we a-are s-sorry. " Jimin slide on the ground joining his hand together to doctor hoping his beg would bring back his Hyung while hiccuping in guilt.
"Even if he was alive, we couldn't save him."
"Why?" Namjoon asked, he was the calmest.
He doesn't even have the slightest tremble in his voice.
But his eyes were blank and extremely calm.
"You guys remember when Namjoon was in need of kidney transplant?
I warned him.
He was unhealthy and in no condition to donate anything to anyone, but he made me do it and made me promise to never let you guys know"
"Did he?"
"Yes Namjoon, even if his other kidney was unhealthy, he gave you his healthy kidney." Doctor informed.
Hoseok whimpered. Yoongi silently held his palm in his rubbing it.
"We didn't have kidney transplant at that moment.
You were on the verge of dying.
He aimed his gun at his own head and made me do it.
He said he cannot live if anything happens to you guys, but he would be fine even if he has to die while saving you guys"
*******
Park Bogum brought plates of food in the stroller for the beauty, who is sleeping peacefully under his utmost care.
He is walking with careful steps, not making the slightest sound not to disturb certain special someone.
Chin lifted high while humming a song in a whisper.
He is in an extremely happy mood.
Standing in front of beauty, his hand unconsciously clenched on the stroller.
His gaze softened.
It was a gaze of appreciation.
It was a gaze of fondness.
Not only that, but it was a gaze of a care.
So beautiful and Ethereal.
Gentleness and elegance is oozing out of this beauty in front of him.
Kneeling in front of Taehyung, he smiled fondly.
“Hey Beautiful” it was a voice softer than a cotton.
The bodyguard's knees buckled at the gentle tone of his psycho boss.
He was that much surprised at his boss sudden turn on his brain gears.
But the beauty didn't reply as Bogum expected.
He didn't talk.
Didn't move.
Didn't blink.
It is like a soul left his body.
He doesn't react to anything
He is invincible to anything Bogum does or says.
Bogum is worried.
Taehyung was so lively a month ago when he saw him at the mall, but now he is just a body with breath.
No reaction.
No motion.
Bogum looked at Taehyung sleeping on the soft silk bed.
He looked at the beauty who is looking at nothing.
His eyes are lifeless.
He lifted his hand caressing beauty's soft cheeks which are sunken now.
Those bread cheeks are long gone now.
Those boxy smiles he would die and kill for is gone.
He lifted Taehyung gently, afraid to hurt him even slightly.
And placed him on his lap, hugging him protectively.
Caressing his back lovingly.
"I'm sorry, Taehyung"
He then started rocking back and forth.
"Please hug me back." He whispered, scrunching his nose at the pain rising in his chest.
But no-one hugged him back.
Something wet prickled down on his neck, sending a shiver down his spine.
Drawing back, he looked at Taehyung.
Taehyung's reaction is blank, but his eyes are flowing with tears.
Bogum touch his tears and wiped it.
He tenderly looked at Younger with his hurt eyes.
It's hurting him physically, seeing the state of Taehyung.
Cupping younger's both cheeks.
He pecked those sullen cheeks lovingly.
"I apologize for I don't want you to let go"
Guess Bogum is also deprived of love and affection.
