1-a cursed day

There are times where things happen and you ask God, 'why?' But always remember that God has a reason for why it happened.

3 years ago

Two boys were walking down the streets of Seoul with shopping bags in their hands. One was wearing a baby blue summer shirt and a jeans with a pair of white flats. He had dyed brown hair and brown eyes with a hint of hazel in them. His sun-kissed skin looked smooth and his full lips were a pinky shade colour.

The other boy wore white jeans with a white tank shirt tucked in the waist band of the jeans and a black and red coat with white converse. He had long, dark brown hair and blue eyes like the ocean and sun-kissed skin. These two boys were kim Taehyung and park Jimin . They were both cousins and apart of the Seoul mafia family.

"What do you think I should get your mum?" Taehyung asked, as they entered the shopping centre.

Today was the day that Jimin's parents were returning back from London, and everyone was excited to see them. Most especially Jimin. Growing up, Jimin spent all his childhood in England, and it wasn't until two years ago that him and his family moved to Seoul.

"Maybe a hat?" Jimin said, remembering that his mother loved to wear big summer hats during the summer.

Taehyung had on a thinking face as he looked at all the shops in front of him. He was just about to say something when his phone went off. "They're probably wondering what was taking us so long" he said, as he pulled out his phone from his bag.

The sound of screaming and crying was all he could hear, and Jimin could also hear it from where he stood. "Mum, what's going on?" Taehyung asked, his voice steady and nervous.

Jimin gestured for his cousin to come closer so he could hear what they were talking about. Something was telling him that something had happened. Something bad. He could feel his heart slowly picking up its pace, and then he heard his aunt say something that made his whole body freeze. "It's...it's your aunt and uncle...they...they got hit by a car."

The hospital reception was half crowded. Jimin rushed to the reception with Taehyung at his side. He slammed his hands on the desk. "Mrs park and Mr park" said Jimin , slightly out of breath.

The receptionist looked up at the two boys. "They are currently in surgery" she said. "But there is a waiting room with other members of your family. Follow me."

She took them down the long corridor, and then they made two lefts, and there was a room with Jimin's two aunties and other members of the family. Jimin searched the room for his older brother and two uncles who were nowhere in sight. "Where is yoongi?" He asked.

"They'll be here in a few minutes" said one of his aunts.

He knew that his mother was no longer with them. He knew that she was in a better place now. But what he didn't know was how he was going to tell his little brother .Yoongi was in the room with his father and two uncles. The doctor told them that there was no hope, and that they were to say their goodbyes.

"아버지와 아르메 네 코시 프레스토, 필리오는 한 가지 약속했다"고 그의 아버지는 말했다. "Ho bisogno che tu ti pledge cura di tua sorella. 그래서 anche che un giorno avrai una famiglia tutta tua."

(Son, I'm sorry to leave so soon, but promise me one thing. I need you to take care of your brother. I also know that one day you will have a family of your own.)

Yoongi didn't know where his father was going with that he was telling him when he said that he would have a family of his own in the future. He though that he was talking about the family business, and that he would have to drop it. But when he looked at his father's face, he saw that his eyes were narrowed at his two uncles.

Yoongi frowned and turned around to look at them, and they had shock written on their faces. They knew something that he didn't. "아빠, 무슨 소리 야?

(What are you talking about, dad)

"형제"아버지가 시작되었습니다. "정국과 결혼하겠습니다. 안전을 위해

(Your brother. He will marry Jeon Jungkook )

Yoongi felt his heart skip a beat. He knew his brother, and he knew that he wasn't going to go through with this marriage. He tired telling his father that, but even in his last moments he was still standing by his title, and that was what boss says, goes. "Grant your old man this wish, son" he said. "He will be safe with him, and this was promised to both our families since they were kids."

Yoongi knew that his father wanted what was best for his little brother. Even as children he would keep Jimin out of the underworld. He wanted to make sure that he had no part in the world of crime. But since this was his wish, Yoongi slowly nodded his head, and gave his father a weak smile before his father looked at his uncles. "Please, take care of them."

The three brothers looked at each other, knowing this was their final goodbye. Yuno and Yookson tired holding back their tears as they nodded their heads. "We will, brother" they said.

Jimin was sitting on one of the chairs in the corner of the room. His legs were pulled up to his chest and his head rested against the wall. He had dry tears on his cheeks and his blue eyes were slightly red. He didn't know what he would do if he lost both his parents. He didn't even want to think about it. All he did was try and focus on the good.

The sound of movement caught his attention, and he saw that everyone was getting up. He narrowed his eyes to the entrance of the waiting room, and almost tripped as he too got up from the chair. He pushed his way to the front where he saw his two uncles walking in with his bother following after them. There was a moment of silence as they all waited for either of the three to speak, but they didn't. They were very quiet.

"Well," Jimin said, breaking the silence. The three looked down at him, but didn't say a word. They all had their answer right there.

Uncle Yuno stepped forward and reached his hand out towards Jimin, but he stepped back. "What happened?" He said.

"Jimin-"

"I need to hear it!!"

This was harder than they thought. They stared at Jimin like that have forgotten how to speak. The silence was seem so long and it was slowing killing his inside.

Yoongi looked up from the floor, and sighed, his eyes were glossy and like he was trying very hard not to let the tears out. "They're," he paused and shook his head. "They're gone, Jimin."

Jimin felt like the ground beneath hid feet had disappeared. He felt his heat stop beating for a moment and his blood ran cold. He stared at his brother for a long moment as he slowly began shaking his head. "No," he said, still shaking his head.

Yoongi stepped forward, also reaching his hand out towards his like his uncle did, but Jimin took another step back. His blue eyes were now glossy and looked like the ocean was trapped inside of them. His cheeks became red and hischest rose up and down as he breathed in and out heavily. "No," he said again. "No, this can't be. No, no, no. MUM!! DAD!! NO!! THIS ISN'T REAL!!" Jimin yelled at the top of his lungs.

He began hyperventilating and his heart felt like it was going to explode inside of him. He felt lightheaded and like his legs were jelly. And then, everything turned to slow motion, and like he lost balance before he fell into a dark slumber.
