YUGYEOM’S POV:
“Jeongukk. Jeongukk and Jungkook were twins. Yeah they are brothers.” I told them and all the BTS members were shocked as hell.
“Don’t you joke around Yugyeom.” Taehyung said angrily.
“You really think I didn’t recognise you on the plane? You really think I knew nothing about the picture you showed me? Wait. Let me show you something now.” I told them and took my phone out.
“Do you remember this picture? Isn’t this the same picture that you have with you? Why and how did I have it? It was because hyung gave it to me. When Jungkook said hid hyung had already kept the contract ready for him, who do think his hyung was? Why is his birthday the same day as Jeongukk? Where do you think hyung disappeared suddenly? He came to America. That was when Jungkook almost died for the 1st time.” I told them and they shook heads as if not believing me.
“He missed you guys. Jin hyung, Taehyung and Jimin. He missed you 3 the most. And he regretted not saying bye. He heard your every song, watched every live, even when you guys performed in America, he watched it live, because he didn’t have courage to see you. Well, I have another shocker for you. Don’t you dare blame me for informing you like this. I can’t lose him, he’s the only one left now so..” I told them and they exchanged looks.
“Jeongukk hyung, he… he’s no more.” I said as tears threatened to leave my eyes.
“What.. do you mean he’s no more?” Jin hyung asked.
“He’s dead. Two weeks after your concert, was Jungkook’s concert. And hyung was having a bad stomach so he came after us. On the way, he met with a very bad accident. He was unconscious when brought to hospital, but then he regained conscious for a few minutes, that’s when he gave his last words to the doctor for Jungkook and us. He died 6 hours after the accident.” I told them and Taehyung lost his balance and sat to the floor.
“Tae, are you okay?” Everybody rushed to him.
“I am sorry, but there’s still more. And you have to listen.” I said my voice very firm.
“Are you out of your mind? Look at his condition?” Jimin yelled at me.
“He asked for it. Doesn’t he dare now?” I asked them and they kept quiet.
“Jungkook almost died for the second time after seeing hyung in that condition. He was still unconscious, when his hyung died. He didn’t even get to see him for last time. He couldn’t say goodbye. His bad luck, we were done with funeral and he regained conscious. And that was 2 days later. He had a very big surgery. He got a heart transplant. And that heart…..” I paused which made every body’s heads turn up to me slowly.
“That heart was donated to him. By Jeongukk hyung. It was also Jeongukk hyung’s last wish. SO Taehyung-shii, Jimin-shii, and Jin hyung, So he feels you and this place very familiar. It’s not him. It’s his heart. Jeongukk hyung’s heart. It’s been 6 months now. And today you have scratched his wounds again. I want you to feel guilty now. Because, what you guys done, isn’t good for him. A little extra pain, hurt, anger, stress is enough to kill him. Try and remember all his actions and his behaviour since he met you. I will leave now. Excuse me.” I said and left without looking back.
All I cared about now was Jungkook. I ran out at full speed. I looked everywhere on reaching out only to see him sitting crouched up besides the car. I ran to him.
“Kookie..” I called out to him placing a hand on his shoulder.
My heart broke seeing him like this. He was crying. After 4 months, for first time. He was crying. I knelt besides him and hugged him patting his back.
“Shh.. It’s okay. You can cry alright? I am here. I won’t let you break down. Don’t worry. You’ve kept everything buried inside for quite long now. Let it out. When you feel better, we can go home. Alright? Be a good boy now.” I tried to comfort him even though my own tears were running non-stop.
I promised hyung to take care of Kookie. But I let him in this condition. I was hating myself a lot right now. I don’t know how angry hyung must be with me now. All because of some foolish people who don’t even care about other’s feelings. But now I am feeling bad for him too. Hyung must hate me. Because that idiot loved hyung, it was clear evident and I knew Hyung loved him too. It must be too much for him. S***!!! I cursed myself mentally. But my only responsibility is making sure Jungkook is fine. No one can blame me for that.
