Chapter Twelve: College boy.

"What do you mean saved you?"

"A few days earlier, I had a sudden h-heart attack in the middle of the night." Lucy started nervously, "I thought I would die bu-but then he came." She closed her eyes, the night replaying.

Lucy walked out of her bathroom, planning to sleep early today. It was already 12 though. "Hmm, where are they?" She wondered. She bent down, finding the bottle of pills under the bed. "How did it go there?"

She gulped down the prescribed amount.

After a whole hour, she woke up abruptly, a sudden pain stabbing into her chest. Lucy groaned in pain, rolling around and trying to do something. She ended up falling on the ground, clutching her chest as she cried in pain.

"H-hel-." She tried to get up or grab something but her hands and legs were numb and stiff. "H-"

Her eyes widen when she saw a man standing near her bed. It wasn't Jungkook. "He-hel-"

"I thought you wanted to die", Jimin mumbled chuckling. "Don't you want to go to your husband?" He asked, walking over to her before straddling her waist. "Or you care for Jeongguk? You don't want to leave Jeongguk alone?" Lucy nodded at him, even though she was terrified.

She was on the verge of dying and a stranger is in her room, asking her questions as if he knew her for years. And yes, Jimin did know her for years.

"Jungkook needs you. He will be sad if you die even though you only brought him pain and sadness." Jimin's words hit her hard, the already vulnerable woman feeling sadder. "He earns money for you. He gave up his dream of becoming a police officer for you. He takes care of you. He loves you even though you are a filthy bitch." Jimin knew he was hurting her and he also knows he shouldn't be hurting her when she is on the verge of dying from a heart attack.

"Listen to me. Change yourself. Your husband won't like you if you keep bullying my Jeongguk. Instead, get a life. Help him with the expenses by going to work. Stop drinking for my Jeongguk. Start helping him in household work. He needs to study and work. Can you imagine how hard it is for him? Care about his opinion. Love him. He would be so happy." As he continued his speech, he started pressing her chest.

He is a ghost.

He can do magic.

And he did his magic.

The woman fainted when the door opened.

"So you can see Jimin?" Jungkook asked, still surprised that Jimin saved her. And here he was, thinking Jimin was trying to kill her.

Lucy shrugged.

"Jimin!! Come here!" He called out but got no answer. "Maybe he wanted privacy." Jungkook pouted.

"Is Jimin a human? And why can't we see him in the video footage?" Lucy asked and Jungkook just sighed.

"Aunt Lucy, I get it you are curious. But I don't want to answer any questions as of now. Please keep Mr.Kim away from me. Don't tell him anything and if he tries to contact you, don't reply. Ignore him. I'm perfectly fine." Jungkook said as he stood up.

Lucy nodded. "Jungkook, I'm sorry." She apologized, staring at Jungkook who was standing on the stairs. The boy nodded before running upstairs, leaving Lucy with her thoughts. She closed her eyes, remembering all the things she did to Jungkook. All the hurtful words she shot at Jungkook. She didn't expect him to forgive her anyway.

"You saved her but never told me about that." Jungkook spoke out, knowing very well Jimin could hear him. "Show yourself Jiminie!!" He whined, looking around. "Or am I just embarrassing myself?"

Jimin walked inside the room. "I didn't want to. And now you found it." He said shrugging.

"What else are you hiding from me?" Jungkook questioned.

"There are a lot of things." He answered truthfully making Jungkook pout. "And I'm not planning on telling you any of that." He added. Jimin didn't want to explain his sad life to the boy.

"I wanna know though!! You were with me all my life. But I know nothing about your life." Jungkook whined, hitting Jimin's thighs.

"There is nothing to know about my life, Jungkook. How about I take you somewhere instead? But just pretend I don't exist cause as you are aware, I'm a ghost and only you can see me." Jungkook nodded excitedly. "Don't cry though." And that brought a frown in Jungkook's face.

"W-why would I-I cry? Where are you taking me?"

Jimin chuckled. The boy was already on the verge of tears.

"W-why are we here?" Jungkook asked, staring at the bright board which hung above the shop. L'appel du vide, it read. The outside of the shop looked lively. For a tattoo parlor, it looked lovely. Jungkook always thought tattoo parlors looked dark, gloomy, and trashed. He imagined the parlor to stink and smell like alcohol and cigarettes.

"Isn't it obvious?" Jimin smiled at him.

"No. Care to explain, Jimin."

"You are getting a tattoo."

"No, I don't think so." Jungkook hated the idea of needles piercing into his skin and paint entering his bloodline. And it would hurt like shit. Of course he doesn't know how it would feel cause he never saw someone getting a tattoo nor has he ever asked someone. It's all in the books he read. Explaining how it would be so painful.

"Come on scaredy-cat." Jimin started dragging the boy inside but stopped when he remembered something. "Jungkook. I'm dead. No one can see me. Don't embarrass yourself in front of them. Be silent and get the tattoo. I want you to." Jimin knew the boy wasn't social and if he embarrassed himself like that, who knows, maybe he would jump from a building.

Jungkook sighed when suddenly he remembered something. "Y-your dead husband had a tattoo. That's why you want me to get a tattoo." He spoke out after realizing.

"Let's go in and get you an amazing tattoo, Jeongguk." Jimin turned to walk inside but Jungkook pulled him back. "No one can see me, Jeongguk-ah. Don't embarrass yourself in front of all the people. You will be declared insane if you continue talking to yourself as if you are talking to someone-." Jimin stopped midsentence, hand holding his now red cheek.

Jungkook who just slapped him turned and walked away. "Let's go Jimin."

"No one is getting a tattoo." He announced once Jimin caught up to him. "I am Jungkook. Not the mafia leader." He continued and Jimin nodded.

Jungkook hated that Jimin still sees him as his ex husband and even wants him to look just like his husband. And if Jungkook got tattoos, he would. Jungkook was aware that he was the dead husband but yet, he wanted to be treated as him, not as his past personality.

He glanced at the man before pulling him closer by his waist. "I am Jungkook. A college student." He said. "I want happiness. A life partner who I can feel comfortable with. And adopt adorable babies who we both will take care of. Till we become grandparents and then die together." Jungkook gently bumped his forehead with Jimin's. "I want you to see me as me. Jeon Jungkook, a 18 year old college student. I don't care of my past self and I don't want you to care about that too." He stated.

The ghost didn't reply making Jungkook roll his eyes. "Obviously you won't fucking obey me and still see me as your ex husband!! Fuck that stupid dead bitch!" Jungkook cursed, his anger raising more when Jimin continued with his silence. "You know what? Fuck this. I'm going home and you can go wherever you want!! Don't come to me." Jungkook yelled before running away.

Jimin nodded, turning around and disappearing into a alley.

And the college boy who was just two buildings away, turned to go back to Jimin. "I'm sorry! Come back Jimin!!" Jungkook called out, angry that he was the one apologising and not the other way around.

He frowned when he saw Jimin had already left. "Fucki--"

"Hello Jeon Jungkook." Kim Seokjin got out of his expensive car, walking towards the boy who immediately got cautious.

Jungkook just nodded in response.

"Do you want to get in the car with me? We have a lot to discuss about." Jin smiled.
