What's a happy life?

Is there a thing called happy life that exists?

Aren't everyone going through different series of stages where they're happy for a little period of time only to wait for bad luck to kick itself in later?

People tend to count their days as bad or good, but what about those who tend to search for every good thing even during their worst of days? Aren't they the most who are hurt and want to avoid thinking about anything bad just to survive?

What if the bubble of hope that you're trying to cling onto burst open, frighteningly showing you the reality you're trying to deceive yourself from?

Wouldn't that hurt you?

How much ever you try to act a fool, the reality slaps you right at your face some day or the other scaring the shit out of you.

They said we should always be prepared for anything coming for us, be it either bad or good. It's always good to be pre-cautious.

But Jimin had no idea this was coming for him. He wasn't prepared for anything at all.  Everything seemed so perfect that he forgot all about his worries. Forgot he had a life where he was fighting through each day to survive. Earning money and helping out himself and his family just to live on basic needs.

It's really scary how a few minutes can change someone's life. It just takes a little ignorance to ruin everything you built up for years.

For example, like tonight at Hobi's. Havoc spread through the entire mansion. None knew the night here could turn out like this.

Being a well-known person was complicated. It's scary how people can stalk you and know when and where you are, which is really dangerous.

Everything started getting wrong since the point the complaint of some intruders trying to come in hit Hobi's ears.

He should've got them arrested.

But he was a soft person, a simple warning was given but clearly looking at the conclusion it didn't keep them quiet. None of this could've happened if only those stupid intruders didn't waltz in to create a scene.

They were here for Jimin.

Demanding a pay for the loans Jimin's dad took when he was in Korea.

As soon as the news spread about Hobi hosting a party it got into everyone's ears. Hobi was a child of a famous CEO. He was on news and so were his friends.

Well, only if they spoke they were here for money, Hobi could've paid them off but they never mentioned money just blatantly demanded to come in.

Local loan shark hoodlum resulting in all of this nuisance caused huge chaos everywhere. There were news reporters, an ambulance for an emergency, firefighters, police and all the parents of the children present at the party.

Firefighters? Right.

His mansion was on fire. So much happened in a few minutes that it was hard to take it all at once. He was losing it, lads. His brain not functioning. Crore worth of clothes burning inside.

But God it didn't matter at all, he could build it up again. What made a difference the most was Jimin. Who was unconscious right now. Having no idea about what broke out while he was having a severe panic attack.

Everyone present at the party was safe except for those who just fell over or hurt themselves while getting out. Jimin was the only one who'd gotten severely hurt.

You were with him the entire time and Jungkook sat with you as the people started aiding Jimin, tying up his forehead with bandages and curing him.

It was frightening to see how the hoodlum had the audacity to create such a big commotion.

They broke the door in and hit Jimin, asking for money, asking him whether he was enjoying partying when he was supposed to pay them.

It caused a big fight which accidentally led to a fire taking place in the mansion. The curtains caught fire which began to spread everywhere. The alarms turned on and the emergency water pipes burst open, sparkling water around.

Jimin passed out in your arms and you were crying, simply crying not knowing what to do until Jungkook took you both out of the house.

For the first time, you were happy that Lisa and Taehyung didn't make it on time. They would be devastated if they could catch sight of this but again the news must've got to them.

"He needs to take rest." The doctor declared, attending to Jimin. "Seems like he had a panic attack before he got hit."

Tears started arriving in your eyes as Jungkook takes the prescription and thanked the doctor leaving him out. Hobi sat with you the whole time it happened. He was overwhelmed too at this point but he was there with you, helping you and Jimin.

Namjoon was handling the students and their worried parents, Jin taking care of the patients who fell and hurt themselves, and Jungkook dealing with the doctor and taking prescriptions for the medicines Jimin needed right now. Yoongi hushing Somi who was trembling because of the fire and Rosé sitting right opposite to you sobbing this whole time.

Taehyung and Lisa coming anytime at this moment.

Your hands stay locked with Jimin's. His face was bruised, bandages covering his head. Ointment on his lips. Purple bruises on his pale skin. You never imagined this could happen even in the slightest.

If only you took him away with you to drink water rather than leaving him all alone.

"Rosé!" You suddenly avert your eyes to see Rosé's parents running to her and embracing her. She cried in their arms as they patted her back and helped her stop crying which even Jungkook couldn't.

Parents really know a child with their hearts.

Jimin was all alone. Just with you. His parents not even being able to come for their child. They were far away. Jimin had only you at his side right now.

More tears hop in your eyes as you hug Jimin's figure close to you. Regret filling you in. You didn't have to quarrel with him over such a small thing. You must have heard what he wanted. He wanted only one thing and that was you to his side. Why couldn't you just say to his face that you were willing to do anything for him?

How could the timing go so off?

There was one thing that you wanted right now and that was to be with him and tell him that you're never gonna leave his side whatever the outcome. He was asked to be rested and you couldn't wait for him to wake up. You wanted to know he was alright.

Both mentally and physically.

As you wipe your tears you get pulled up as Jimin's figure slide back on the chair with a slump. Confused, you turn to see none other than your parents looking at you with devastation spread on their faces.

"Mom? Dad?" You whisper their names out getting a really bad feeling about this. This wasn't something your parents would do. One phone call was enough, why did they travel to come see you?

Were they worried?

For a second you really thought they did but no they were here for a reason. Your name was on the news. Their reputation was at risk and they had to take you out. Obviously.

But that was just a part of it.

The main deal was Jimin. They heard about the infamous Park Jimin who was known as the world's top entrepreneur's son in the past that got hit by some local hitmen. With whom you were with the whole time and furthermore because of who you also got caught trespassing school gates once.

He was a nuisance in your parent's eyes who only brought you bad luck.  

You didn't matter of course.

"It's good to see you're alright. Now let's go home." Your father reached for your hand but you never give him. Instead, you cling yourself to Jimin. Hugging him closer than before. Scared they'll take you away from him.

Hobi stood up to greet your parents distracting them but none of it worked. They simply were focused on taking you away.

"Y/n. I said let's go home." Your mom walks past Hobi to come get you, "You should come home." She sternly spits out with a warning glare.

You were weeping, nodding a no. Begging her that you don't want to go right now and that you will come by yourself when you see Jimin is alright but hell they listened.

It triggered them more that you were wanting to stay with the troublesome boy. 'Who was right now ruining your whole life' they assumed.

"He is nothing but trouble." Your mom looks at your other hand clutching onto Jimin's hands. Her mouth turns to an angry fowl whereas your father calls for the driver to take you all home.

You shake your head, "I'm not going home." You utter with an unsteady breath, "I'm not leaving him."

Your mom scowls, "Are you out of your mind?" She grabs your hand away from Jimin's, "He's just simply destroying you, is that not clear?"

"No Mom!" You cry, "I want to be with him."

There were so many misunderstandings. You were yearning to say how he was not a bad person but your parents didn't want to hear a single explanation.

"You're living off our money Y/n. Do not act like you built this. Just one scene and you have no fucking idea what could cause what." Your mom spits out, pushing you and dragging you away from Jimin.

They were taking you away from Jimin.

How did the night turn out to be the most traumatic night of your life? Jimin was laying on the bench as Hobi was helping to keep him in place. You didn't want to leave him. Your parents weren't even willing to hear even Hobi out.

They just wanted you out of this scene without any drama.

"Y/n!" Your head spun to see none other than Lisa running to you, "God, are you okay?" She checks on you, tears arising in her eyes, "I'm so so sorry."

Your parents notice her as she greets them.

They take away you again but this time Lisa holds your hand, "W-where are you going?"

"Back home." Your parents answer for you.

Lisa's eyes widen, "Wh-what why?" She asks you but your eyes got swollen, you were just wailing, nodding your head. Your lips mouthing, 'I don't wanna leave him'

Your mom sighs, "It's getting late, we need to go."

"P-please papa." You turn to your father, "I promise I won't create another scene."

Hearing your words your dad nods his head, "You're too innocent for this world, you won't understand how many people are trying to leech off us by our money."

A hiccup follows out of your throat, "Jimin is not like that." You explain with water wetting your cheeks. Lisa cries out looking you like this. You never cried like this.

"Don't tell me..." your father starts, "Are you in love with that boy?" A shocking gasp releases out your mom's words  after hearing your dad. You glance at Jimin who was surrounded by a worried Taehyung and Hobi.

Your lips tremble at the words coming out of your mouth. Jimin was someone who brought you where you are today. Supported you in everything. Was there for you when your parents weren't. Revealed to you a world full of love you didn't imagine you'd even get to encounter in the first place.

How could you leave such a lovable person behind? Who'd die a hundred times for you if you asked him to?

How could anyone not be in love with him?

It hit you at that moment. You were in love with him. The part where he broke out on the thought of you leaving him, you didn't think it would scare him to death. If you were to leave him he would die than stay alive.

You wouldn't ever leave him. Never.

You were the only person he'd want to see when he would open his eyes and after that fight with you if he wouldn't see you he could get into a panic attack again. You had to fight to stay with him.

He didn't deserve to be all alone again.

"Yes, I am." You confess to your parents, meeting their eyes with honesty glistening your tears, "I am in love with that boy, Jimin."

Lisa gasps at your confession.

"More the reason, you need to stay away." Your mom calls out and takes you away while your father opens the door for you to get in.

They would never approve of him. It was clear as water but were you going to give up? No was never an option. If you'd not go with them right now you were sure as hell that they would destroy Jimin to the point that he wouldn't be seen anywhere.

You didn't want that, you wanted to deal with everything in peace.

Before your mom took you in, you see Lisa and mouth your words out, "Take care of him, I'll come soon."

She nods, wiping her tears. Knowing it was impossible to fight your parents but she did know you were coming back for Jimin.

She saw that love in your eyes. You were sure about changing your life right now and she believed in you.

It was calm. The weather was chilly. Dark clouds envelop the sky. Birds were peacefully chirping on the tree trunk. It was oddly uncomfortable.

Jimin's eyes come back to consciousness. An unknown roof appeared before his eyes. Where was he?

Tilting his head up he saw someone sitting on a chair. The surroundings become clear to him as soon as he recognises Rosé laying her head on her lap and dozing off.

Why was he here?

What happened last night?

The door of the room unexpectedly opens, revealing Jungkook coming in with grocery packets in his hands. As soon as he finds Jimin awake he sighs in relief.

"You're awake."

Rosé's head sprung up, her eyes finding it hard to open themselves but as she sees Jimin awake she stands up, tears coming out of her eyes.

Stretching out her arms she goes in for a hug, crying out aloud as Jimin simply blinks not knowing what was happening.

Jungkook places the grocery packets on the table, sitting down on the seat Rosé was sitting previously. Rosé couldn't stop crying since yesterday.

"You're okay." She mumbles under his arms as Jimin frowns patting her back, "Of course I am." He looks at Jungkook who was sadly looking at him. "What's wrong?"

The door vaults open and one by one everyone enters the room.

Rosé gets away from the hug, wiping the tears and giving access to everyone who wanted to see Jimin.

Taehyung slides down the seat, covering his face with his palms and quietly crying. Yoongi wraps his arm around Taehyung to calm him down while giving Jimin a sad smile.

Jin carries a package of medicines as Namjoon places ramen packets in Jimin's lap. "Eat this, you might be hungry."

He tilts his head not figuring out what was happening. "What's wrong?" He asks, "Am I dead or something? Why do you all look so devastated?" He chuckles, trying to joke but none of them smiled, either worry took over their face.

Hobi takes a seat next to Rosé and holds Jimin's hand, creases of worry forming on his forehead. He looked paler than usual. "Don't you recollect what happened last night?" He asks in a low tone as if it was a very sensitive topic to talk about.

Everyone was staring at him.

Bringing his fingers to his hair he tries to scramble them until he stops. A bandaid covered his head. His heart drops. Lowering his fingers he sees them bruised. One of his hands injected with a needle connected to a glucose stand.

His eyes meet everyone. Panic spreads through his body. Goosebumps started to appear on his skin. His face only grew paler and paler as the flashback of memories from last night play in his head.

One question. He asks one question every being in this room was scared to answer.

"Where is Y/n?"
