Everything Changed.

Minutes turned into hours... Hours turned into days... As days, turns into a week.

A week.

For other people, one week might be a short time but for Jimin, he feels like a year already. Everything changed around him and even he, himself changing.

He no longer smiles. He no longer talks much but one thing remains the same; his tears that didn't fail to fall every morning when everyone is about to start their new day and every night where everyone is comfortably sleeping. Everything he sees for the moment he left Jungkook, seems colorless and dull. The world he used to admire because of the various color, no longer excited him. 

Jimin was laying on the bed, while his head and body, facing to the right as there's a big blanket covered up his whole body. Jimin didn't go to school already for a week. He isn't ready to meet Jungkook in any kind of way. He knows, Jungkook wouldn't treat him like the male used to but somehow, seeing the older face is enough to make Jimin cry again.

He was gazing out the sunlight from his curtains. The one that always bothered him from sleep was now dull and nothing to him. The sunlight is no longer bothered him in any kind of way and instead, just like the clouds, Jimin eyes do the same... Every day for him is rain... Nothing more.

Ever since he told his mother about his decision, she has a treating him back to where she used to be. But she didn't know the tears Jimin shredded every day. He didn't tell anyone nor he planned to. He doesn't want everyone to notice which is kinda–stupid, since he loses his weight and it's obvious– nevertheless, the moral of the story is he doesn't want other people to know that he's a weak person.

He swallowed hard when he realized the day he promised to go to school already came, faster than the speed of light. During those seven days, he didn't attend school, Jimin and Taehyung made a deal that after one week he will come back as the healed person, and Jimin agree instantly thinking he will stop crying for two days but oh- he was wrong.

Even for a whole goddam week doesn't make his tears stop yet continue to fall like a river...

He sighed in frustration before moving the blanket on top of him and landed his foot on the ground, feeling the cold marble against his skin. Surprisingly, Jimin didn't feel anything for the past few days. It's like that emotion he has was no longer there. He didn't feel happy, excited nor angry but, he feel miserable.

He walked towards the bathroom and mentally cursed himself for promised to Taehyung that he will come to school. No matter how long, he will never be ready to face the handsome male. Reaching there, he lazily stripped himself out from his pajama before stepping inside the bathroom and hung his towel behind the door.

He glanced at himself through the mirror and noticed the bags under his eyes is worsen and he could actually see his collarbone displayed clearly. "Jimin, could you stop crying over a man?! He's just a man!! Nothing more!!" He yelled to himself, silently angry by the fact he lose his weight too much for the days past.

"Ugh... Whatever... You just being stupid despite the high score you got." Jimin said to himself and continue to do his business in the bathroom. But along those minutes, his eyes didn't stop shredding more tears despite he said himself dumb for crying over a man.

"Jiminie!!! I've been missing you!!" Taehyung yelled from afar, catching Jimin attention who was walking through the corridor lazily since he didn't want to meet Jungkook but of course, being the stupid yet smart kid Jimin, he promised Taehyung that he will come no matter what.

He doesn't know why but somehow, the vibes are different from others. He's nervous to see Jungkook but at the same, he was participated in seeing the male face. Well, seeing the teacher one more time is not that bad, right? He's been missing him a lot and the amount of it is not healthy at all.

"One glance doesn't hurt Jimin." He assured himself, already forgot the fact that Taehyung is walking towards him and in fact, the boy was already stood still beside him. Taehyung was smiling the whole time because his best friend actually fulfilled the promise but the smile eventually drop when he noticed the change in Jimin physical appearance.

"Did you eat?! Why are so skinny?!" Taehyung asked worriedly and hold Jimin shoulder, wanted to look at the boy. He noticed the red nose, red ears, and the bags under Jimin eyes but he didn't bother to say anything about it because he knows too well why. Seeing Jimin in this kind of state, unknowingly created anger inside Taehyung. Now, he badly wanted to slap the shit out of Jimin's mother...

"I eat bruh." Jimin hissed and Taehyung smiles sheepishly, acting as if he didn't notice anything but clearly everything. "You left a lot during the week Jimin!!" Taehyung mentioned before landed his hand on Jimin shoulder as they continued their walk through the corridor. "Oh yeah? Like what?"

"Like Taemin!! He finally back to school after five months!!" Taehyung said, finding himself laughed at the moment where Jimin beat the boy at their school canteen before noticed the titanium boy beside him didn't smile nor react at all. Jimin couldn't help but recall what happened after he beat Taemin.

“Finished staring?”

“You're so full of yourself old- oww!”

“Words. Jimin”

“What's wrong with my words you- Oww!”

“What happened to the chirpy mouth of yours, baby? Got nothing to say anymore?”

Unknowingly, Jimin eyes already started to drown in tears while recalling everything that happened in the nurse room. For the third time and for more to come, it hurts.  By this, he quickly realized that he will meet Jungkook today caused his step to stop immediately. "Hey... Jimin what's wrong?" Tashyung asked and frowned when he realized his best friend is crying.

"I need to go home. I can't." Jimin said panicked, knowing he could meet with Jungkook anytime, anywhere in the school and he's not going to risk that. No, he's not ready to meet the male. But of course, that wouldn't happen because fate already decided for them to meet that day, no matter what happen.

It is just a matter of time before Jimin runs back to the male embrace.

"What? Why so sudden?" Taehyung asked, unaware of what the boy implied. "Mr.J- Jeon!! I don't wanna meet him!! I n-need to go!!" Jimin yelled and right when he's about to run away, Taehyung already grabbed his wrist and dragged him to their class. Along the way, Jimin couldn't help but yell out loud hoping the boy will let him go but as if he didn't have ears, the latter didn't even bother to make Jimin shut his mouth.

"Let me go!!" Jimin screamed and yanked his hand hardly but no matter how hard he try, Taehyung didn't let go of him. Soon later, they reached the class and noticed that nobody is there caused Jimin to calmed down but panicked back when he realized the male might didn't arrived at the school yet.

Taehyung on the other side, try so hard to control his laugh. He knows that Jimin is terrified by meeting the certain teacher but of course being the devil, Taehyung didn't tell him that Jungkook took two days 'leave from work' which started the day before and that day.

"Tae... Please... I don't wanna meet him!!" Jimin pleaded for the second time and keet attempt to run away but Taehyung never let him do that. After minutes of trying, Jimin finally grew tired and accept that his best friend is an asshole who likes to see his friend suffer.

Despite the sassy thought of his, deep inside he meant it when he said he's not ready to meet Jungkook. But then he decided to do like last time which is ignoring the other's presence. That's the only way for him to not broke down in front of their classmates. Hell, if he ever cries in the class, the whole goddam town will know and make a fuss about it.

"Calm your tits down bruh... There's nothing that will happen!!" Taehyung stated and later received a hard smack at the back of his head caused him to yelped loudly. "What the fuck Jimin!! That hurts you bitch!!" He yelled and was about to do the same but Jimin had already run away making his anger burst immediately.

"You little bitch!! Wait till I got you!! Imma smacks your head till it changes into pancakes shape!!" Taehyunh cursed out loud and chased Jimin as they both now, running inside the class like a 5-year-old boy. Actually, Taehyung didn't mind the whack, in fact, he was glad when Jimin smiled and didn't want the boy to be sad anymore so he started to act like he's going to give revenge.

Beside... He already promised to the certain teacher to always make Jimin happy...

Just when Taehyung thought everything will be okay, another footstep filled the corridor before entered their class, catching Jimin and his attention. There, So-Hyun was standing with the extremely short skirt and new hairstyles every day. Ever since Jimin absence, she has been clinging onto Jungkook a lot despite the rejection she got every time.

Taehyung almost laughed all the time because of how desperate the girl is but he is not going to tell Jimin about it. He knows, despite the so-called moving on, deep inside Jimin still loves Jungkook so why would he tell the boy about how is So-Hyun being a clingy bitch beside the teacher whom Jimin loves so much? To hurt him? Nu-uh, not in his watch.

Right after the girl entered, the atmosphere around them immediately tensed as Jimin eyes sharpen and glared at the girl. He might be weak for crying over Jungkook but in other aspects, he's still himself. "Oh, Jimin!! What are you doing here? Long time no see?" She asked teasingly before placed her bag on her seat.

Despite the days of Jimin absence, she noticed that Jungkook always stare at the boy's seat from afar and she couldn't help but hate the latter more. 'Duh, that bitch is not even there, why would he rather stare at the empty seat than looking at my face?' So-Hyun found herself asking when he realized that Jungkook has been staring at the empty seat for the whole week.

"Nah. I'm always here. In front of you..." Jimin sassed back. Now you might question, if he's still the sassy him, why wouldn't he be against what his mother said? Well, here's the explanation of it... He's indeed the sassy boy but now, everything that related to Jungkook weakened him. The male is his weakness...

As for now, So-Hyun is teasing him but not anything related to Jungkook that's why.

So-Hyun didn't say anything after that because she was embarrassed. Her face reddened in humiliation as she quickly sat on her chair, facing the blank markerboard. Taehyung on the other hand realized what's the war is about and he didn't do anything but enjoy the scene in front of him while his legs crossed elegantly.

Jimin scoffed loudly, mocking the girl before sat in his chair, already forgot the fact he needed to face Jungkook later...

A few minutes later, the class begin to fill his students. Jimin realized that the class is about to start any soon and the first subject is Mathematic. If there is only him and Taehyung, he would already scream in nervous but because there's other student's, he badly controls his facial expression.

"Hello everyone... Today we got a new student." A voice called out, breaking off Jimin's thoughts as he looked in front and sighed in relief when is not Jungkook but then what he saw beside the male froze him on the spot.
