Ignore my mistakes plz....

No one's POV

A taxi stopped in front of the hospital, Namjoon was at the nurse's station arranging his certificates in file...Jin staring at him from little far...He took a deep breath and takes towards him " You called for a cab?" Jin asked him...who just stares at him "I did " Yoongi said, who was formally dressed...in a wheelchair.....Jin give him a small smile...Yoongi smiled back and wheels him out to where Namjoon was.

As Taehyung was packing Yoongi's bag behind him " Thank you...why tho?" Namjoon asked him " I'm going for a job interview " Yoongi said to him at which Namjoon's face lights up " you coming with me?" Namjoon asked him...Tae and Jeongguk joined Yoongi and exchanged a smile with each other " No, I'm going for the interview and you're going home ".

Yoongi took off the rings on his fingers while speaking " why would I go home?" Namjoon asked him confused " Remember, we promised this rascal " Yoongi said, Jeongguk snapped his fingers at Namjoon, who stares at them on disbelief as Yoongi dropped the rings in bed pan " Give me your tie " Yoongi said to him " Why?" Namjoon asked befuddled....Tae plus an envelope from Jeongguk's hands.

" I doubt you'll go for the interview after reading this " Taehyung said which made Namjoon frowns " What's that? " Namjoon asked him confused " A letter " Taehyung said " For you " Jeongguk said and moved little forward " some photographer called André Istavan " Taehyung said which made Namjoon's mouth fell open with shock...ge turned to his bag and frantically searchs it....He doesn't find what he was looking for.

He looked up to see Jeongguk, Tae and Yoongi smiling at him " You posted my letter?" Namjoon asked him, eyes widen " He loved your pictures, The guy wants you to assist him " A flag of excitement crosses Namjoon's face...Tae holds out the letter to him " internship in the Brazilian rain forest for a year " Taehyung said " Will pay you,too " Jeongguk said...Namjoon grabbed the envelope...he took out the letter with trembling hands and starts reading, incredulous.

As he reaches the end of the letter something strikes him and his jog fades from his face...he looked up at his friends, despair clouding his eyes " Dad will never agree " He said sadly " Go speak to him....from your heart " Namjoon shook his head... Jeongguk persists " For once, dump your fears or someday, on your deathbed, you’ll regret it. You’ll remember that the letter was in your hand, the taxi at the gate with just a little courage, you could’ve turned your life around " .

Namjoon's House, Sometime later

Namjoon's mother opened a gleaming bed laptop, a ribbon rosette in it.... Namjoon's father looked at her expectantly " Do you think he'll like it?" He asked her " Why such an expensive gift?" Mrs Kim was happy, but trying to be practical " Our son’s getting his fi rst job today. Don’t be stingy at such a proud moment " Mr Kim said with a proud smile....Eye downcast, Letter in hand...Namjoon entered the living room of his home.

" Namjoon?" Mrs Kim said spotting her son... Namjoon's father turned around in surprise...He made his way towards Namjoon, his wife following him " Didn't you have the job interview today ? " He asked him  " I didn't go...I don't want to an engineer, Dad " Namjoon said with some courage...Mr Kim looked at him uncomprehendingly.

Interview Hall

Yoongi sat across an interview panel, in his wheelchair...His face was peaceful and calm " what happened? You had an accident? " One of the interviewer asked him indicating his wheelchair " See that building? I jumped  from it's third floor " Yoongi said to them calmly, the interviewers exchanged looks " Why ?" The other one asked " because I was rusticated from college " why? " Third one asked " Drunk, I urinated on the Director's door " Yoongi said to them...The interviewers try and digest these facts.

On the other hand in Namjoon's House, Namjoon struggled to made sense of the situation " That scoundrel Jeongguk is messing with your mind! " Mr Kim said to him " I don’t enjoy engineering. I’d make a terrible
engineer. Gguk has a simple belief: Make your passion your profession. Then work will become play " Namjoon tried to make him understand.

" What will you earn in that jungle?" Namjoon smiled slightly " A small stipend...but I'll learn a lot " Mr Kim scoffed " Five years from now when you see your friends buying cars and homes, you’ll curse yourself " He said angrily to Namjoon " Life as an engineer will bring only frustration. Then I’ll curse you I’d rather curse myself, Dad "

" The world will laugh! Label you a loser, for quitting in the fi nal year. Mr Kang feels you’re fortunate to be at ISE. What’ll he think? " Mr Kim shouted at him " Mr Kang didn’t provide me with an air-conditioner. It wasn’t Mr Kang who slept in discomfort while I slept well. He
didn’t take me around the zoo on his
shoulders " Namjoon paused for a moment " You did all that father " Namjoon said to him smiling sadly.

" Dad, how you feel, matters to me. Mr Kang makes no difference. I don’t even know his first name " Mr Kim looked away from him " You think you’re the hero of a melodrama? " Mrs Kim, face was fearful...she put a restraining hand on her husband's shoulder " Enough please... He's upset, God forbid, of he did something crazy like Yoongi " She said to him tearfully.

Mr Kim huffed " Then the discussion is over, Don’t say a word or his Lordship will jump off the roof " Distrubed and angry, Mr Kim walked towards a chair and sit down....Namjoon turns to face his father " no, Dad... I'll never attempt suicide..I promise " Namjoon said to him softly.

Namjoon walked up to where his father was sitting, he took out his wallet, kneeled before his father and shows him the photograph in his wallet of Mrs and Mr Kim smiling " The Jeongguk you detest put this picture in my wallet. Told me to see it if a suicidal thought crossed my mind and imagine what’d happen to your smiles when you see my dead body ".

Mr Kim looked from the photograph to Namjoon's face, silenced...A sob escaped from Mrs Kim's mouth " I want to convince you dad, but not with a sucide thread... Namjoon clasped his father's hand in between his hands " Dad, what will happen if I become a photographer? I’ll earn less I’ll have a smaller house, a smaller car But I’ll be happy. I will be really happy Whatever I do for you will be out of genuine love " Namjoon said to him.

Mr Kim looked at his son like he's never really seen him before " I’ve always listened to you For once, let
me listen to my heart. Please, Dad " Namjoon's father turned his gaze away from his son's beseeching one....He got up and walked away from Namjoon... Namjoon looks at his father's receding back in growing desperation.

" Dad, please go away " Mr Kim walked to the new laptop and closed it...He turn to his wife " Return this " He said to him.. Namjoon who was standing behind his parents, head lowered in defeat, looked up sharply " Son, what’s the cost of a professional
camera? Can the laptop be exchanged for it? " Namjoon breaks down, overcome with love and happiness.

" If you need more money, just ask " Namjoon rushed to his father And hugged him...They both cries, Mrs Kim stare at him sobbing in happiness " Go live your life son " He said to his son.

The interviewers refers To Yoongi's file, open before them " Your grades are consistently poor Reason? interviewer 1 asked him " Fear. I was a good student since childhood.
Parents hoped I’d end their poverty. That scared " Yoongi said in a calm, matter of fact tone " Here I saw the mad race. You don’t count
if you’re not fi rst My fear grew. Fear is not good for grades, Sir. Prayed to God for favours. No ... begged for favours " Yoongi said smiling ruefully.

The interviewers were listening silently " 16 broken bones gave me two months to think and refl ect. Finally, sense dawned " He paused for a moment " Today, I didn’t beg God for this job, just thanked him for this life. If you reject me, no regrets I’ll still do something worthwhile with my life " He said still smiling.

" Such frank behaviour is not good for our firm. We need someone diplomatic to handle clients. You’re too straightforward " Company's head said to him, One of the interviewer slides Yoongi's open file back to him " But if you assure us you’ll control this attitude …" The Company's head and interviewers exchanged looks.

" We may consider you " He said others nodded in agreement, Yoongi smiled at them pleasantly " It took two broken legs to get me up on
my feet. Wasn’t easy to get this attitude. Can’t change it, Sir " Yoongi closed his file " You keep your job... I’ll keep my attitude. I’m sorry, don’t mind, Sir " He turn his wheelchair around and starts to wheel himself out " Wait!" Company head called him....Yoongi turn around.

" I’ve interviewed countless candidates for 25 years. Everyone turns into a yes-man to get the job. Where did you spring from, Son? " Yoongi frowns " Sir?" He said puzzled " Shall we discusse the salary?" Yoongi's eyes brim up with tears of gratitude" Thank you, sir! Thank you! " .
