Chapter 15: Wounds

[Not proof read. Ignore the mistakes.]

The trio walked towards their bedroom. When they opened the door, Jungkook came running with a wood box.

"This is the Medical kit Hyung." Jungkook said. Hoseok looked at him and smiled. He then thanked him taking the kit from his hand and going inside the bedroom. Both the other followed him while Jungkook stayed behind giving them privacy.

Inside the bedroom, Hoseok went to sit on the bed and called Jimin over making him sit beside him. Yoongi took a seat on the ground in front of them Indian style.

Hoseok opened the leather latches of the wooden box and opened the lid. Inside, there was a bundle of bandages both kinds of. There was also a bottle of disinfectant, some supplies of stitches and a big cotton piece.

He took the cotton piece and tore a much smaller from it. He rubbed the smaller piece onto Jimin's wound who hissed due to the burn of something raw touching his wound. When the blood was cleaned, Hoseok put a bandage on it. 

"It's done." Hoseok said. His sentence cutting through the silence in the room. He sighed and started putting the things in the wooden box and the closed it's latches. He threw the bloodied cotton on the bin beside the bedside table and put the box on the bedside table.

"I really don't want to give up my minister position." Yoongi said from the ground. The other two looked at him giving him all their attention but Yoongi averted his eyes staring at his lap.

"It feels like I am getting demoted. I should be promoted because the Education and Health departments are doing well because of me. But, I am just gonna act as a simple advisor to Jimin now." His voice was so sad that it broke the other pair's heart.

"Isn't it good? To be able to work with Jiminie?" Hoseok said. Jimin's neck turned pink at the nickname while Yoongi shook his head.

"I won't be able to sit in any of the council or cabinet meetings, I will be away on business trips for at least half a month every month. It is a shame for a king to be on this position. But, I guess (Jimin's fther name)  is right." Yoongi said and exhaled loudly.

"Listen, I am the king. If he made a decision then the final wordings will be mine."

"But he is the former king! The cabinet will not listen to you!" Yoongi voice was almost a shout.

"Why are you saying this? You should know that if I want then I can just snatch the position of those wrinkly old men because I am their king. If they disrespect me, then I will do that."

"Jimin! You can't just snatch anyone's position!" Yoongi stood up. Jimin too stood up.

"I can!" Jimin shouted.

"You damn well know you can't so stop giving m false hope because I know I will fall for it!" Yoongi said tears gathering in his eyes. Jimin's face softened at this. He quickly pulled Yoongi in his chest.

"Look, I will not back down. I will-"

"Shut up!" Yoongi yelled and pushed Jimin back who landed on the bed.

"Stop!" Yoongi said and now tears were running down his cheeks.

"Your father is right. We should just follow his decision." Yoongi said and turned around.

"But why?" Hoseok spoke up after remaining quiet the whole time. Yoongi stopped and turned around confusion on his face.

"Why are you giving up? Why are you not fighting?" Hoseok asked.

"Because I am tired of fighting. I... I... just... can't." Yoongi said and then ran away from the bedroom. Hoseok stood up with the intention of following him but Jimin's hand on his wrist made him stop.

"Let's give him some space." He said. Jimin nodded and sat beside Jimin. Hoseok looked at him and sighed.

"If I refuse to take his position will he get it back?" He asked after a moment of silence.

"No. It's already decided. Don't worry, I will surely think of something. I just need a bit of time. But, it will take a few months." Jimin sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose. Hoseok put a hand on his shoulder and a peaceful silence fell on them.
