Now, I am feeling this loneliness again, this unbearable feeling that I haven't experienced since you became a piece of my heart. Words cannot describe the way I feel about you Taehyung. I loved the way you made me feel, even when you weren't near me...

''Call me back after you hear the message, okay? This is the third time you aren't picking up your phone and I am not going to lie, I am slightly worried Kim Taehyung. Call me back, please...'' Jimin said anxiously through the phone.

He was waiting for his shift to end so that he could go and pick Taehyung up. Perhaps they could go and eat at Namjoon's for dinner to celebrate the day Kim Taehyung slept for four hours without taking his pills. But where was the boy?

19:39

Under the city lights Taehyung was walking alone. The news he received were devasting. He thought his mother's condition was stable. Instead her disease started worsening. Her lungs have turned black and she was losing weight without even trying. Her chest was constantly in pain and Taehyung panicked seeing her coughing blood. Despite chemotherapy and radiation therapy his mother's condition was going downhill.

''Don't worry little strawberry. I am tired of seeing your tears. Just smile''.

Yet Taehyung cried a lot. It was his mother after all. He did it all for her. Although he always was the one that told her to stop smoking, she never listened to him. That's how she ended up like this, covered under the white blankets of her hospital bed, drowning in her own blood.

He turned his phone off, completely neglecting the fact that Jimin was supposed to pick him up. Without knowing where his feet were leading him, he continued walking until he found his place,his shelter, the only place that calmed him down.

''Sorry for bothering you Jungkook''.

''It's okay. Jimin right?'' the other male's voice echoed through the phone.

''Yeah, how are things at work?'' Jimin asked. Truthfully speaking, he didn't give a damn about ''LOTUS''.

''Since the incident with Taehyung the boss has become furious. He scolded Hoseok...''.

''Hoseok ?''.

''Jhope, Hoseok it's his real name. Anyway, he threatened him because he helped Taehyung. Nobody saw me though, so I got lucky I guess''.

''I see...Umm, is Taehyung with you by any chance?''.

''I am going to pick up Hoseok and leave for work, Jimin. I haven't seen him since that night. You don't know where he is?''.

''I was supposed to pick him up but I cannot find him. I have called him multiple times but...I am just worried...I don't want him to be alone...'' Jimin's voice cracked.

''You like him, don't you?''.

''He is my friend...''.

''Sure, and I am ugly. Anyway, do you have any idea where he might be?''.

''He visited his mother. Maybe I should go check at the hospital...''.

''He once told me about a place next to the hospital  that always brought him peace. It must be easy for you to find, there is a big tree, decorated with colourful lights. He might be there''.

''You are a life savior, do you know that?''.

''Go save your...friend''.

''Jungkook...''.

''Call and tell me if he's okay'' Jungkook mumbled quickly and ended the call.

20: 35

Taehyung was silently sitting on the bench under the tree trying to figure out why his life was becoming worse day by day. He was thankful for being given Jimin, but his mother's health and his own well-being were going into a decline. He remembered the day he ran to Jimin's cab. Jimin was so kind with him and he was just a stranger, his client at that time. The brunet gave him water, visited him at work just to return him his belongings. And now they are living together. It was so peculiar and surreal...he was thrown away and someone, somehow picked him up and loved him...

''Kim Taehyung...!!! Tae, where are you?'' the familiar voice was screaming.

''Jiminie?'' Taehyung wondered and stood up, wiping his tears with the hem of his sleeves.

''Taehyung'' Jimin yelled and quickly parked the cab to the nearest pavement.

''What are you doing here? What time is it ?''.

''I was so freaking worried. Why didn't you answer my calls? Where were you? Why are you crying? I don't want to see you cry'' Jimin said and tried  to brush Taehyung's tears away with his thumbs.

''I am sorry''.

''You are sorry for what? You did nothing wrong''.

''They harmed you because of me. I have caused you so much trouble and...''.

''And I am stopping you there. I am happy with you Tae. I am having someone to talk to. You are living with me and we are such a great team. I wouldn't change anything. Finally for the first time in my life, I have someone else to share my loneliness with'' Jimin said softly and sat with Taehyung on the bench.

''Jimin, I have a lot of problems to deal with right now''.

''You think you are the only one with problems Taehyung? Unfortunately everyone faces issues in this world. Do you know how lonely I was before you came?''.

''Yoongi...''.

''Yoongi has a girlfriend and his own life to deal with. We are friends but due to work we barely even met. And it's not like loneliness is cured'' Jimin spoke and placed his hand on the red-haired boy's thigh.

''Why were you lonely?''.

''I have lost my parents. I was so lonely in a terrible, unhealthy sort of way. And to tell you the truth for a flash of a an instant I could see how lonely I was, how deeply  this feeling integrated inside my body. And it scares the shit out of me even now, because it seemed to catastrophic. It wasn't a sickness. It was a feeling. And feelings cannot be cured''.

''It's just that I never had someone to help me with my issues. And you appear out of the blue and help me. Why? Why are you giving me hope Jimin?''.

''Because I think you deserve it. You are an amazing guy Taehyung. Don't let anyone persuade you otherwise. You need to learn how to trust people Taehyung. People who deserve it. I am trying to help you here. You have no imperfections Taehyung''.

''You are the perfect one between us Jiminie'' Taehyung cracked a smile.

''Stop joking. I am serious here. We will fix things, you already made progress. Stop derogating yourself'' Jimin patted the other boy's back.

''You are cute, do you know that Jiminie?'' Taehyung asked out of the blue.

''How does this fit our conversation?''.

''It doesn't, I am just stating a fact. You are like a light in the darkness Jiminie'' Taehyung said with a huge grin, until he placed a soft, quick kiss on the taxi driver's cheek.

''Jiwoo'' dr. Kim yelled from his office.

''Yes, mr. Kim''.

''Please open Kim Taehyung's medical document''.

''What should I add, sir?''.

Causes: stress, anxiety, uncomfortable work schedule, loneliness, death of a relative. Progress: he slept for four hours without his estazolams because he had someone close to him, seems happier''.

''The kid will be fine, right doctor ?''.

''I think so Jiwoo. He has a guardian on his side''.
