Chapter 28๊ง๐ฅโปโโปโ๐ท๊ง
Wishing on a sky
Wishing on a scar
If there's the sun
I'd want to dream
Yoongi was frantically knocking on Hope World studio door. He desperately needed to know what transpired in his therapy room.
"Come on, Hobi...we need to talk...open up please" Yoongi was full of exasperation. He has been pleading for almost 5 minutes.
Jhope was sitting on his leather sofa with his hands in his hair. What happened shook him to the core.
Oh my gosh! Yoongi put two and two together. He knows his Hyung will force him to spill the tea. My word! How the hell did that happen? All his suppress emotions betrayed him back there.
When he locked eyes with her, he became breathless with attraction towards her. He never felt like that before. He wanted to run to her, grab her into his arms and kiss her senseless...he hates feeling vulnerable like this...he hates what she made him feel...
FATE why? Hobi was wordlessly pleading to Destiny to leave him alone. How will he be able to lie to Yoongs?
He wiped his tired eyes, stagger up from the sofa and quietly move to his door and unlock it. Yoongi was frowning when locking eyes with his deflated friend and brother.
Hobi opens the door wider for his Hyung to enter. He inhaled deeply as he closes his eyes for a moment. He was locking the door again. The presence of his soulmate is not in the area.
Yoongi turned around when Hobi plopped down on the sofa, looking in his eyes filled with questions.
Yoongi looks very concerned as he says next to Hobi.
Yoongi with a quiet voice," Hobi...did ...did you just bond with Akira in there?"
Yoongi couldn't believe that Hobi found his destined mate in his cute Thera.
Hobi looks at him with a defeated look, " I...no..." He jumped up, and Yoongi shook his head.
"Hobi, what happened there was very tangible in the air. I know you half bonded with her. You were looking at her for almost 5minutes. You forgot everything around you. Your...Your eyes were ...were filled with desire and longing. It looked like you...missed each other so much and that moment you found your place in each other...please be honest with me, Hobi...what happened in there?
Hobi eyes started to tear up, and with a painful strangled voice, he confesses at last," I'm sorry, Yoongs...I was so shocked when...when I half bonded with her...I didn't want it...I'm not ready for her."
"Omg, Hobi...You find your puzzle, and she can heal you, my bro...what happened? Why aren't you with her?" Yoongi is amazed.
"I...we bonded during the audition on this floor?" He finally confesses with a muffled voice...
"Gosh, Hobi! ..as if the day you were so harsh with her when Joonie and I found you together...You were so sick that week, throwing up etc. So did you reject her?" Yoongi looks stunned with a bit of disappointment in his eyes.
"Yes, I did?" Hobi wiped his eyes, unable to lie any further. He is so tired of this soulmate business.
"Oh Hobi...why? She is so lovely.No wonder she was so afraid to work for me because she doesn't want to be around you. Why? You know what FATE can do to you if you half-bond. You told me to pursue my soulmate, but you are doing the same thing. " Yoongi looked a little peeved. He likes Akira, and Hobi caused her deep distress.
Hobi looked at Yoongi with pain in his eyes, "Don't I know that!... I caused her deep pain, Yoongi...but I'm seriously so scared to accept her...what if she hurt me when I gave her my fragile heart." Hobi doesn't want to love another girl, but FATE is cruel.
Yoongi hugged Hobi around his shoulder while Hobi hid his face in his hands, unable to handle the conflicting emotions.
"Hobi...Akira will never hurt or cheat on you like that, Dove. Akira have so much love and kindness in her. She will love you unconditionally. You deserve to be love with pure, unselfish love. Akira can give it to you...she needs to be with you." Yoongi rubbed Hobi shoulders.
Hobi glanced at his Hyung with red-rimmed, " I'm so afraid to open up to love again...Yoongi. I still have unresolved feelings for my ex. What if I activate the bond...she will be in so much danger. I wouldn't concentrate on anything. I was so worried when she got lost in the underground...I just can't ...not now ."
Yoongi felt so sad for the soulmates.Akira, who cared for Hobi, gave him space and how hurt she must've been knowing he doesn't want anything to do with her. Her eyes longed for Hobi to accept the bond. And Hobi, who is afraid for love. He has no Faith in his soulmates love. Then it's that cheater who also confuses him daily.
He cannot let his brother go through the same pain he went through for four months.FATE will roast him. He will have an uphill battle to fight his developing love for Akira.The agonizing pain of his soul mark, the constant fantasies and dreams will drive him crazy.
How will he get through his stubborn brother? He needs to use wisdom and reverse psychology.
Yoongi inhaled sharply and went in for the kill, "I hear you, Hobi. Maybe you right. You don't have to activate the bond or accept her...she might go through all the activating pain and fantasies about you. You are still safe. You still love Dove. When your soulmate finds out about your ex, she will have to move on. This morning it seems Hanbin is smitten with your soulmate. He took her to the mall, they worked together to set up my therapy room, and it seems he is about to ask her out..." Yoongi looked calmer as he tried to silence a snort at the mixed emotions that runs over Hobi s demeanour "...and she might let him love her."
Hobi sat with furrowed brows and looked wide-eyed at Yoongi. Hanbin, Sejins' assistant, is attracted to his soulmate. What?
"What do you mean....she will LET him love her?" He hates the sound of that-his bond protest against it. The jealous and possessive side of the bond is emerging from Hobi, and he despises feeling like that.
" Hobi, do you want me to spell it out? If you continually reject her...she will have to give up on you and look for love somewhere else and might start sleeping with a guy who shows her love and affection. Do you want someone else to take what is yours? If Jimin knows she is rejected...." he deliberately trails off. Hobi looked livid, girls love Jimin, and if Jimin has an eye on a girl..they are toast.
"What the hell Yoongi!...she is bonded...she ...she can't just...just..."Hobi stutters it out.
Yoongi smirks and pressed his lips together, not to laugh out loudly, looking at Hobi with raised eyebrows," Why not?...she will not wait for you forever. Hobi, Remember she is going to be here six times. The dancers already took notice of Kenichi's hot sister. So accept her and work through your fears or tell her you choose Dove above her so that she can date someone who will love her alone...she is leaving Hobi...like it or not, you will experience an emotional overload.ARMY will notice the band and management. "
Yoongi looked at the profound calculating expressions on Hobi face. He thinks he already gave his younger Hyung enough food for, though. Just the thought of his soulmate in someone else arms already create shock waves through Hobi.
Yoongi looked at his Rolex watch and look at a stoic Hobi who looked deep in thought." It's already past 5. Are you staying or can we leave? My shoulder is a little sensitive. I need to drink some pain medication. I need to be with my girl now."
Hobi stood up and look at Yoongi, "Please don't tell the band...please let me deal with it my way. Please."He won't be able to handle their judging eyes or involvement in his business.
Yoongi links his arms inside Hobi elbow, "I won't, but please deal with it. I can't lose my best, Thera. But, first, let me check if my therapy office is locked."
Hobi nods as he inhaled deeply at the sudden fear he felt just thinking about his soulmate with someone else. The thought constricted his heart, and he could feel the mixed emotions going through him...He needs to go to his parents home.
"I'll get you at the elevators. Let me quickly lock my office, and I need to call Mejiwoo." Hobi's mind is
"Ok..." Yoongi looked at his sad brother. "Hobi, please activate the bond and forget Dove...please pursue Akira before you lose her forever. We can't afford to lose you too, please."
Yoongi patted him on the shoulders and left the studio.
Hobi took out his phone and called Jiwoo.
"Hey, brother.." she sounded cheery.
"Hi Jiwoo,...can...can we go home today? My shoots are done. I'll pick you up in few minutes. I've got my bags ready. I miss our parents."
Yoongi drove them home. He found out by Kenichi that Akira went home with an Uber. Jhope was lying backwards on the seat with his eyes closed. Yoongi is still stunned that Hobi founded his girl.
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Gwangju, South Jeolla province.
Jhope picked up his sister, and both of them drove to Gwangju. Jiwoo decided that she will drive them home.
It was a three hour trip from Seoul. Jiwoo looks at her brother's solemn face, and she knows he is going through some issues, especially with his ex and coming soulmate.
She put on classical music to let him take a nap. Jiwoo reaches the wealthiest part of Gwangju. Hobi wanted his family to move from his old neighbourhood in Ilgok dong to avoid harassment. It was dark when they entered their estate.
Jiwoo drove into the estate and woke her brother up. She felt so sorry for her brother, but she will always support him.
"We're home, Hobs!" She parked in front of the double garage and closed the remote gate.
"Wow, I had such a restful nap, thank sis.' He smiled brightly in his sisters big, expressive eyes.
Their mom came out and hugged them, Glad that her two kids are back home for the weekend. Hobi s mom embraced her son with extra love. She can see that he looked far off and out of his element.
"Hi ma, I missed you guys".He put his arm around his mom's shoulders and walked into the house. His dad is not yet back from his interview. He will sleep at a hotel tonight and be at home tomorrow. Jordon was sitting in the lounge reading the newspaper when Jiwoo saw her soulmate. She squealed and ran into a surprised Jordon. He grins and scooped her small thin figure in his arms, and kiss her passionately.
She looked up at him with a beaming face." Oh, sweetheart, I thought you'd be in Busan for business and be gone by tomorrow." She pouts cutely. Jordon smirks and kisses her pouty lips.
"Oh baby girl, I wanted to surprise you and hand Hoseok his gift before I leave" Jordon has to leave tomorrow early to wrap up his business negotiations.
Hobi grins and greets his Jordon with a secret handshake. He likes him very much. Especially the love he and his sister shared
"I hope you love it Hobi, remember you told me a few months ago that you can seem to find a specific stereo amplifier. So I got you the YAMAHA M5000 stereo power for your home studio. I hope you like it."
Hobi's face was in ecstasy ." Oh my gosh, bro, thank you for the gift. Cool man.! I can wait for Suga's and Namjoon's reactions. Thanks. You must have a safe trip home, please."
Jordon pats Hobi on the shoulder and nod." I'm using the family charter." Jordon is from a very affluent family in the USA.
Jiwoo, with a pouty voice," Stop talking to my baby bro...I want you all to myself now...came to see you at dinner, Hobs...Ok baby! What did you bring for me?" She coyly looks into her laughing soulmates face.
Hobi scrunched up his face at the seductive aegoys that his sister is giving Jordon. He went into the kitchen to talk to his mother. Who was setting up the food for them? His favourite Kimchi dishes.
His mom looks at him with calculating eyes...something is bothering her boy. His whole demeanour seems sad and detached," Ok, my boy, what is bothering you...your mixtape. It will be a great success, dear. You worked very hard, and BTS is famous, so your name will go places...or is it Dove? We promise you we had nothing to do with her families intention to let you marry her. We all know you'll love her until you meet your soulmate."
Jhope looks with deep affection in his moms' eyes," I'm not so worried about my mixtape. I'm also not so confident and hope for the best. Suga and Namjoon already did it, and it went well... and mom Dove is not over me. She wants me to get married even before I meet my soulmate. She thinks I'm going to be a yellow string and that we truly belong together."
J hopes mom just shook her head," Since we moved a few years ago, my friend thought that we would forget them...they are still on the same level. Doves' dad lost his construction job, and now he wants to start a wonton shop- but he isn't business-minded. Dove sister married her soulmate, but money is scarce...they live in an apartment in the shady side of Gwangju in the city. He can't keep a job and was once in a rehabilitation centre for drug abuse. You need to understand. You are very successful, and you always love Dove, their youngest. They want to secure a future for her with you. She loves you so much..."
Jhope scrunched up his face, " Yeah, right!!! Her love was so deep it led her to cheat on me. Mom, I would've taken her back even if she was Tarnished or yellow stringed, but she cheated with Chung hee from all people. She told me the truth. They did date while I was away. How can I trust her? What if I marry her and she starts cheating again when I'm on tour...I will raise children that are not my own...I love her mom, and it's killing me slowly...I don't know what to do?" He frustratedly call out.
His mom embraced her tall son in her arms," Don't lose heart, my boy. Your soulmate will heal your bruised heart."
Jhope shook his head," Mom ...I...I'm more afraid of loving my soulmate...Dove knows everything about me, and she hurt me...a soulmate stranger can do much more damage."
J hopes mom look with deep pity n her beautiful boy's eyes," You are the Hope of ARMY and the boys...a clinic has been built in your honour called Hope...you deserve everything and more...You have done so much for this family ...you and Dawon?"
Hobi grins and hugs his mom back," Awww, mom, and I can never really re- pay you for everything you have done for me. and don't let Meijiwoo hear you calling her on her birth name. "
"I hate these stage names even if it is good, and you'll be my Hoseok forever...so back to the point of discussion. Forget about marrying Dove. You wait for your soulmate. Dad and I even Jiwoo wants to love her, and we already accept her into the family...she must just appear."
Hobi pursed his lips, unable to come clean to his family. They would be super disappointed in him if they knew he rejected the bond and cause them unnecessary pain and suffering. He knows that his soulmate is suffering, and he knew beforehand he would be bad for her. But her face and eyes haunted him everywhere.
He is so tired to fight FATE...after that locked eyed incident, he knew he was gone, he prays that Y/n mustn't find out how much attracted he is toward her...she'll be the death of him. He can't even think about Dove after today, in a romantic way. Akira is busy destroying and ruin the safety he had in loving Dove without committing to Dove.
That evening the Jung family enjoy a very relaxing dinner. They laugh a lot as Jiwoo amused them with things that happened in her life. Jordon told the family that he and Jiwoo might tie the knot very soon. They are busy designing their mansion in the Cheongdam neighbourhood. Jhope is so pleased that his sister will be settled and secured.
His penthouse is somewhere in Apgujeong. Jiwoo was the overseer of the interior decorating projects. He was only twice at his penthouse. His Bangtan boys gave him lots of housewarming gifts. More unpractical and funny gifts for his place. Jin and Samiya bought him expensive copper pot sets and stainless steel flatware and chopsticks. He doesn't even want to mention the strange but funny gifts the maknae-line bought him.
Jiwoo bought cheesecake and doughnuts from Seoul, and they were enjoying it with a hot drink. They were all talking about Hobi's new mixtape. ARMY gave it a new name, the Hixtape. Jodon told them how big they are becoming in the USA and how breaking the records is off the charts. He told them even his family is waiting for his brother in law mixtape release. They all became ARMY after his connection with Jiwoo was confirmed. They are very proud of Hobi. He feels so grateful for the life that God has given them.
They even discussed their Summer family vacation in Miami beach. The Jungs and Jordon's ' family will enjoy a two-week vacation in Miami. They can't wait. Luckily they will have an extended break. Maybe Bighit will give him a week off to spend with family. He need rest for his soul.
Jordon left the Saturday morning very early. Jiwoo took him to the airport. By ten, she and Jhope went for their sibling date at their favourite restaurant. ARMY saw the two siblings and wave at them.
Jhope was delighted that their fandom left them to enjoy their private time. Other fans or people who were not ARMY took discreet photos of the pair and posted them on their Twitter and all social media platforms, how they spotted the Jung siblings.
Hobi enjoyed a relaxing time with his family. He and his father bonded well, and he gave his parents first-class travel tickets to London at his luxury condo for their anniversary. The dinner was delicious, and he and Jiwoo took the road back to Seoul by noon.
..............................................
Y/n pov.
When you reached home, you couldn't handle it anymore. You ran to your room, fell on your bed and burst out in tears. Right then and there, you came to the painful realization that you are falling hopelessly in love with your Soulmate.
You made sure you look presentable when your brothers arrived home. Keitaro brought you to take out, and you didn't have to cook anything for them. You told them about your work with Yoongi and then showed them pics of the therapy room. You also told Byron that you are moonlighting for Suga of BTS. He was so flabbergasted and wanted you to tell Sarah, but you asked him not to inform anyone. It's a secret for now.
The twins were playing a PlayStation 4 game. Kenichi bought himself one, and now the twins enjoy their time together. Kenichi had a rigorous dance schedule.
You told them to excuse you for the weekend you going to sleep -in. Your parents will be here at the end of the following week. You got a miss call from Yoongi because you were relaxing in the bath. When you saw his call, you felt the butterflies in your tummy, and you are so afraid that he will let you go to please his band member.
You call him back with trembling fingers on the digits," Hi, Mr Min."
Yoongi's voice sounds sorrowful," I'm so sorry, Akira..."
You interrupt him quickly," You don't have to be...I'll understand if you don't want me to work for you no more...I am sorry for disrupting Jhopes life-"
Yoongi shout out in surprise," What! No...Akira I don't want you to stop working for me. We are fine. You need to come in tomorrow, please... Sejin said the company would deliver the medicine by tomorrow, and you need to check if it's the correct ones and if we need to place more orders, especially for the first aid kits."
"O-ok, thank you, Mr Min..." you said with relief. You like working for Yoongi. He is fun to work with.
"Please don't call me Mr Min, ok...call me Yoongi. If the boys hear you, I won't hear the end of it. I and sorry for Jhope. I didn't even realize why he behaves like that. Give him the time he will come around, or I'll kill him slowly. You will be a great couple." He chuckled softly.
You inhale sharply," I don't know, Yoongi. He told me to stay away from him and his band, and I don't want to be unnecessary around him, Yoongi. My presence angers him too much, and I don't know how to work undetected in the therapy room without him sensing me."
"Akira you my employee, and I want you there. Jhope can stay in Hope World during the duration of our sessions." Yoongi assured her. He will not lose the best Thera in his life.
"Ok, Yoongi, I'll be there at 8h30 am. My posters are coming tomorrow morning also." It works for you. Yoongi said he would bring the maknae-line to meet you officially. You feel a bit nervous about meeting the most celebrated band in the world.
"Hobi went home for the weekend, so don't worry. He will not be there. So don't fear. I know how to handle that, Hobi." He snickers. You wonder what is Yoongi up to. They love to betray each other in RunBTS shows. She hopes Yoongi will not do something that will bite them in the butt.
"See you tomorrow, Yoongi," Yoongi told you the brunch is on him and what you like to eat. You like your young employer. He is so kind. You told him your preferences and informed him that Hanbin would also be there. You smile.
Hanbin told you that he would take you sightseeing on Monday after work. You can't wait to see the sights.
A/N Another update for the lovely daydreamer. I hope you enjoy the filler chapter. Yoongi confronted Hobi, and he spilt the beans.
Thank you for all your support and a big shout out to the newest readers and voters.
@XxAhana22184xX
Question 1: Do you think Yoongi mentioning Hanbins affection will make Jhope reconsider?
Question 2: Is Jhopes' fear of commitment justified?
Question 3: Will reverse psychology work on Jhope?
