Chapter 37
Driven by an overwhelming sense of guilt and desperation, Jungkook embarked on a relentless search for Seokjin, scouring every corner of Seoul in hopes of finding him. His search led him to Mingyu, the person captured in the compromising video that had triggered Seokjin's departure.
Mingyu, initially hesitant to reveal any information, eventually relented under Jungkook's persistent questioning. He confessed that Seokjin had indeed been in Seoul recently, but had left abruptly without revealing his plans.
Armed with this newfound information, Jungkook intensified his search, scouring train stations, bus terminals, and airports, determined to find any trace of Seokjin. However, his efforts proved futile, as Seokjin had vanished without a trace.
Frustration and anger began to consume Jungkook, and he lashed out at Mingyu, blaming him for Seokjin's disappearance. The two men engaged in a heated argument, which quickly escalated into a physical altercation.
Fists flew as Jungkook and Mingyu vented their frustrations on each other, their punches echoing through the deserted alleyway. The fight ended with both men nursing bruises and battered egos, but Jungkook's heart remained heavy with despair.
As the dust settled, Jungkook realized that his impulsive actions had only served to further distance him from Seokjin. He had let his anger cloud his judgment, and in doing so, had only made things worse.
With a heavy heart, Jungkook retreated to his apartment, the weight of his guilt and regret pressing down on him. He knew that he had a long road ahead of him, a journey of self-reflection and redemption.
Mingyu, still reeling from the physical altercation with Jungkook, felt a surge of anger and resentment towards the man who had so recklessly shattered Seokjin's heart. In Mingyu's eyes, Jungkook was the epitome of betrayal, a person who had selfishly disregarded the love and trust that Seokjin had placed in him.
"You're stupid to betray Seokjin like that!" Mingyu couldn't shake the image of Seokjin's tear-stained face, the look of utter devastation in his eyes as he watched the compromising video that had exposed Jungkook's infidelity. The pain that Seokjin must have endured was unimaginable, and Mingyu blamed Jungkook entirely for the wreckage he had caused.
"You're a snake who takes advantage of his weakness." Jungkook, on the other hand, felt a deep sense of guilt for his actions, but he also harbored resentment towards Mingyu, the man who had inadvertently played a role in Seokjin's departure. Jungkook couldn't help but wonder if Mingyu had deliberately taken advantage of Seokjin's vulnerability, exploiting his loneliness and emotional turmoil.
"I'm just comforting him after you hurt him!!" In Jungkook's mind, Mingyu was a symbol of temptation, a reminder of the weakness that had led him astray. He resented the fact that Mingyu had been able to provide Seokjin with the comfort and affection that he, Jungkook, had failed to provide.
The animosity between Jungkook and Mingyu ran deep, fueled by a complex mix of guilt, resentment, and a shared sense of loss. Both men had inadvertently contributed to Seokjin's heartbreak, and both were grappling with their internal turmoil.
Mingyu and Jungkook stood facing each other, their fists clenched, their eyes burning with anger. The tension between them was palpable, the air thick with anticipation.Mingyu lunged at Jungkook, throwing a punch that Jungkook managed to block just in time.
Jungkook countered with a punch of his own, sending Mingyu reeling backward. The two men fought with a ferocity that surprised even themselves, their fists flying, their bodies colliding. They were both skilled fighters, but it was Mingyu who was starting to tire first.
Jungkook pressed his advantage, landing a series of blows that sent Mingyu crashing to the ground. Jungkook stood over him, his foot raised to deliver the final blow.
But then, Jungkook hesitated. He looked into Mingyu's eyes and saw not anger or hatred, but pain and regret. And at that moment, Jungkook knew that he couldn't do it. He couldn't hurt Mingyu anymore.
Jungkook lowered his foot and stepped back. He turned and walked away, leaving Mingyu lying on the ground, staring after him in disbelief.In the chaos of the scuffle between Jungkook and Mingyu, security guards rushed in to separate the two men. Jungkook, fueled by his desperation to find Seokjin, was struggling against the guards' hold, his voice laced with threats directed at Mingyu.
"If you don't tell me where Seokjin is, I'll make you regret this!" Jungkook shouted, his eyes burning with fury.
Mingyu stood his ground, his expression unwavering. "You'll never find Seokjin," he retorted, his voice firm. "He's gone, and you'll never see him again."
Jungkook's anger intensified, his grip on the guards' arms tightening. "Don't make me hurt you," he growled, his voice low and dangerous.
Mingyu remained unfazed, his eyes meeting Jungkook's with a defiant glare. "I'm not afraid of you," he declared. "You've already caused enough pain. Leave it alone."
The tension in the room was palpable, the air thick with unspoken emotions. Jungkook, torn between his desperation to find Seokjin and his growing frustration with Mingyu's defiance, wrestled with his inner turmoil.
As the guards struggled to restrain Jungkook, Mingyu's words echoed in his mind, a reminder of the pain he had already inflicted. Jungkook's grip on the guards loosened, his anger slowly dissipating as he realized the futility of his actions.
With a final glare at Mingyu, Jungkook allowed the guards to lead him away, his heart heavy with a mix of regret and uncertainty. He knew that Mingyu was right – Seokjin was gone, and his relentless pursuit would only lead to more pain.Left alone in his office, Mingyu watched as Jungkook was led away, a wave of relief washing over him. He had stood his ground, refusing to be intimidated by Jungkook's threats. Yet, beneath the surface of his composure, Mingyu couldn't shake off the lingering sadness that weighed heavily on his heart.
Jungkook found himself back at the bar, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. He was a mess, his once vibrant spirit now dulled by pain and regret. Taehyung, his loyal friend and confidant, found him there, sitting alone in a corner, nursing a glass of whiskey. Taehyung's heart ached for his friend, seeing him so lost and broken.
Without a word, Taehyung sat down beside Jungkook, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. Jungkook looked up at him, his eyes glazed with sadness."Jungkook," Taehyung began gently, "you need to talk to me."
Jungkook shook his head, his voice barely a whisper. "I can't," he said. "It hurts too much."Taehyung nodded in understanding. He knew that Jungkook's heart was shattered, and he didn't want to force him to open up if he wasn't ready.
But he also knew that Jungkook couldn't keep bottling up his emotions. He needed to let them out, to grieve the loss of his love, and to find a way to move on.So, Taehyung sat there with Jungkook, listening patiently as he poured his heart out. He told him about his betrayal, his heartbreak, and his guilt. He spoke of his fears and his regrets, his doubts, and his insecurities.
Taehyung listened without judgment, offering words of comfort and support. He reminded Jungkook of his strength, his resilience, and his capacity for love. He helped him see that he wasn't alone, and that he had friends and family who cared about him and wanted to help him through this difficult time.
As Jungkook spoke, a weight began to lift from his shoulders. He felt a sense of relief, as if he was finally releasing the burden that had been weighing him down.When he finished, Taehyung hugged him, holding him close as he cried. Jungkook felt a sense of gratitude for his friend, for being there for him when he needed him most.With Taehyung's support, Jungkook began the long journey of healing. He learned to forgive himself, to accept his mistakes, and to move on. He rediscovered his strength and his resilience ,and he found a way to love again.
And through it all, Taehyung was there for him, a steadfast presence in his life. He was a reminder that Jungkook was never alone and that, he had someone who loved him unconditionally.
