21. CHANCES

Kim Taehyung deserves more than this.

It was all I could think of as I sat on the precinct that dreadful night. I couldn't stop crying. He's dead. The medic told me that after taking his pulse, they got nothing. He's dead. And I really think that he deserves better. Way much better than this.

The police to the precinct to ask me some questions. I demanded a lawyer before answering their questions. They managed to contact our family lawyer. The news spread out like a virus to our family and now Yeonjun is going to get me.

I hate this.

I don't want to be here. I don't even know why I'm here pr if I should be mourning at all. I am nothing to him. He only said he loved me. We were never an item or any labels at all. He only said he loves me and I love him. Is that enough reason for me to mourn like this?

"Seokjin ..." It was Yeonjun. I looked up and saw hik with that ridiculous expression on his face like he was disappointed at me. What's new?

He sat beside me. He even sighed.

"Our lawyer is taking care of everything. You don't have to be here." I said coldly. He sighed again.

"Why are you making it so hard for me to be a brother to you?" He asked me. He is not mad but his voice has tiredness in them. This is the first time I heard him sounded like this. It made me pause and look at him. He was eyeing our lawyer and the policeman. .

"You don't like me, Yeonjun. Let's face it. We are brothers but you never liked me."

"That's not true." His voice is quivering. "I love you. It's just that sometimes, you're too hardheaded that's why I need be harsh on you. Jin, not because we're rich and we can buy anything we please you're gonna act like an asshole to everyone. Yes we have the power but let's not forget that we're also raised by mere mortals. We're never close to gods. We have to act like humans not some high demanding bitch or asshole."

I clenched my fist.

"I am raised like this. I am this, why would I change who I am just to please you!?" I hissed. "Go home. You're not helping. The of my life died in my arms. I didn't even had the chance to be with him because of what our mother did and now you're here telling me that I'm not good enough to be your brother because I'm a bitch, an asshole!?" I pushed him away and cried harder.

I lost Taehyung. I lost the chance to be with him. I lost my chance of a happy ending and I cannot change it no matter how hard I pray.

I hate it I hate being helpless.

"Yeonjun, you can take him home now."

I heard the lawyer said. As much as I hated Yeonjun right now, I have no choice but to take a ride with him. I thought I don't meed Hoseok but right now I needed him. I'd rather be with him than to be with my brother.

"Uncle Zeus is taking care of his funeral."

"Shut up!" I hissed.

"Jin, you have to accept that he's already gone."

"SHUT UP!"

After I said that he parked the car. We are home. I quickly stormed out of the car and went inside the house. I badly wanted to cry to my Mama but I stopped myself because she is the reason why I'm in this pain. Yes, she is sick but I hate her more now.

I can't help but wish that she was not sick and she won't forget everything. I want her to know how much damage she had caused me, us. Me and Taehyung.

I went to my room instead and cried there all night. I didn't slept, ate or even took a bath. I just cried there looking at the ceiling questioning God why? Why did it happened to me?

I know I was not a good son, a good brother. I'm not a good person in general but I know I don't deserve this.

I don't know how long have I been crying but I saw Jungkook in my room dressed in all black. He has a pair of sad eyes as he look at me. This ks becoming real as fuck.

"Jin, we are burying him today. You need to get dressed."

I cried what he said made sense. It cut a deep wound in my soul.

"Dad sai you have to be there, because Jin, you are the most important person for him in this world. You have to say goodbye to him."

I didn't listened to him. I cried harder until Jungkook slapped me.

"Cry a river if you must but if you really do love him. Have the decency to say goodbye to him."

I saw my Mom standing at the door. She was looking at us. My anger for her arise.

"You're happy now? He's gone! I'm miserable." I shouted at her. She widened her eyes.

Papa probably heard me and stormed inside the room to slap me.

"You don't get to talk to your mother like that!"

"Why, Papa? She is not dying? Her sickness will never change the fact that because of her I lost the man I love and I will never get the chance to see him again just because she's selfish!"

"I know how you feel, Jin. I know because that's exactly what happened to me but unlike you, I get yo have the chance to be with Hades again. I'm sorry that you lost your chance to be with Taehyung. I'm sorry that he died but if I have to do it again, I would because I'm your mother, Seokjin. I love you unconditionally. I love you with every bits of my soul even if you hate me. I love until the last leaf of my life falls. I know I have hurt you and I pray that K can take it all back but I can't. Pain makes us human beings, son I don't want you to be hurt but a little pain will be good for you. You can hate me all you want. Curse me or even worse, for get me. But I am telling you, I will not forget you even if it kills me."

Mama walked out. I was left there with Jungkook. I don't know what to say. I just cried and hugged him tight. I took a bath and got dressed. I needed to do this.

For the last time. Fuck, this hurts.

We reached the cemetery and everyone was there. Namjoon, Uncle Zeus Aunt Athena, and another man with green eyes. I fixed ny gaze at him. Jungkook seemed to notice.

"He is Yoongi. Their other brother. I don't know much about him. Taehyung's body was cremated. But we're burying him beside my grandfather, Taehyung's father."

The ceremony started. No one was crying for him except me. Uncle Zeus's eyes was sad and Yoongi's fist are clenched.

"Anyone who wanted to say something about him?" The priest announced. No one spoke. I saw Uncle Zeus nodded at the priest. He ended the funeral.

It was short and very sad. Sad because he doesn't have anyone to be with him in his last moments. No friends to cry for him. No family. Even if Uncle Zeus was here, I know deep inside him he wad angry at Taehyung. Namjoon had the same mad expression too.

"I love him." It was a mumble at first. "I love him! I fell in love with him when I was 21. When I was with him I considered that as the best moments of my life. It was short lived. But I love him." I sobbed. I don't even know why I'm saying this.

I guess it's me saying goodbye to him.

"He said he loved me and I was his light. I was the only sane thing in his insanity. But he's gone now. He doesn't deserve this ... I love him ... He doesn't deserve this."

I cried and Aunt Athena hugged me. It hurts so much.

After the funeral everyone left except me. I sat there on the grass still crying. They don't want to leave me but I plead to them. While I was sitting there, I kept on crying. I cried and cried until someone sat beside me.

It was Hoseok and he gave me a white Lily.

"Hey." He greeted me.

"Hi ..."

He sighed.

"I'm sorry, Jin."

His voice if full of sincerity.

"It's okay. It's not like you're the one who killed him." I joked. I chuckled but he didn't. He just sighed and held my hand.

"Everything will be okay. Maybe it happened for a reason." He sighed.

"I know. I will find that masked man. I'll make him pay. I remembered his mask and he has a cross pendant on his neck. I can't forget that."

He didn't answered. We stayed there for a while. He took me home.

Before I can go inside the house he called me.

"I resigned as your body guard. I have some work to do in Greece."

I nodded at him and waved goodbye. I watched him as he leaves. I closed my eyes.

This is the end.

"Is he okay, now?"

Hoseok ran as quickly as he can to tend to the bleeding Taehyung. He had lost a lot of blood but he can't rush him to the hospital. People know he's already dead.

"He's okay now. We'll wait for him to recover and we'll fly him to Greece. You almost killed him. The bullet was centimeters away from his heart!"

He nodded. He knows what he did and he did it perfectly. He's still alive. Good. He stood up and looked at the sleeping figure of the man.

"You're one lucky bastard. Aside from my handsomeness, I have a kind heart. I won't let Jin be sad for a long time. Recover old man or I'm taking him away from you."

He smirked when he saw Taehyung's finger twitched. He grabbed his jacket and looked at the doctor he hired.

"Take him to Greece. If he wakes up don't tell him about me." The doctor nodded.

He is giving Taehyung another shot at life. If he messes this up, he'll kill him for real this time.
