Jungkook's sudden decision

"Abeoji, I would like you to know something." He said firmly.

"What is it?" His father asked.

I was confused of what it was. What possibly could be there to tell his father?

"Abeoji, I, want follow my passion."

"So?"

"I don't want to look after the company. I want to do what I like." He said.

I never thought this was gonna come up like a bullet shot.

"Are you out of your mind? Do you even know what you're doing? This doesn't seem like the right time." I whispered to him.

"No y/n. Please don't. I've made my decision. I will not be looking after the companies even if you retire."

"What?" His father asked.

"Yes abeoji. I don't want to." He said.

"What made you think like this? Are you out of your mind? Who wouldn't want to be taking over the company?"

"I don't want to. I do not have a thought of taking over the company too. I wanna do what I like. I don't wanna do what others like or think is the best for me."

"Is there anything you'd like to say y/n?" His father asked me suddenly. I didnt know what to do.

"Uh.... umm.... uh.... I think he too has a point. Uncle, after all it's him who's gonna live his life. If he does what he likes, then he would do it with interest than being in a job that he doesn't like. He'll get more involved and take active participation in what he likes. It's better to do a job that you like than a job you don't like or wanna be in."

"What do you wanna become?" He asked.

"Fashion designing."

"And do you have that much money to get into a designing school?"

"I'll work hard to earn."

"But you need the best schools for making or producing the best designs, right?" I nodded.

"But how can you afford? You and your brother are an orphan and you hardly have money. People like you will get into universities that are at your budget. But ours is not like that. You cheap people will only think how to get the cheapest one even the cheapest. But we rich people get the richer ones even rich. Don't even compare yourself with us." He said.

My cheeks felt warm. Tears flowed. I wiped them but more flowed.

"I-I'm s-s-sorry. I'll leave." I was about to walk away when Jungkook held my hand and stopped me.

"No. Stay." He said softly. He turned towards his father.

"Abeoji!!" Jungkook raised his voice. I held his hand not to.

"Listen now. I don't want anything of yours anymore. Have it all to yourself. When you think that following my passion is ok, then call me. If I ever became famous never ever even think of standing near my shadow." He said.

"The same goes to you. When you think your passion isn't good then you can come. Don't ever come here begging for money." His father said.

Jungkook held my hand and took me.

We stormed out of the house.

"J-Jungkook." I called him. My voice was barely heard.

He stopped and turned towards me.

"Why did you do that?"

"Cause he said wrong things about you and your family."

"Why do you care about me? What about your parents? You just left them."

"You don't see that they said.... they said..... I don't want to say that. Your my friend. How can they say it?" He said.

"I'm just a passing cloud. But hey stay with you forever."

"No! Your not a passing cloud." He said and walked away.

"J-Jungkook." I whispered.

I walked home with tears flowing in my eyes. I didn't know to cry for what.

For what Jungkook's father said or for what Jungkook said.

I stumbled a bit but reached soon.

I didn't enter. I sat by the stairs outside.

I buried my face in my knees and cried more.

"Y/n." I heard a voice. I looked up and saw hoseok oppa.

"Oppa, what are you doing here?" I asked wiping my tears fast.

"Why are you sad? Did you cry? Your eyes look... red. You know you can tell me anything. I won't tell Tae." He said.

I went and hugged him and cried more.

"Its ok." He said.

We sat down and I told him everything.

"And now I don't know whether to think about what Jungkook's father said or that I've got a great friend, who really cares for me."

"Y/n, I'm sorry for what his father said. I dont have any words of comfort for this."

"It's ok."

"Y/n, instead of worrying over what uncle said or thinking that you've got a great friend, or worrying about that you're not rich, think about your future. There is nothing wrong In what you said. Follow your dream, your passion. No one's there to stop you. If there is anyone like that, tell me. I'll help you." He said.

"Thanks." I said and rested my head on his shoulder and tried to forget it.

I looked up at the stars and smiled a bit.

"Looks like your back to normal. And it's quick." He said.

"I guess." I said and sat straight.

"Why did you come here, anyway?" I asked.

"Ah... I totally forgot. I came to get a file Tae wanted. And Jungkook wanted me to give this to you." He said.

He gave me the bag and went to take the papers.

"Where is Jungkook?" I asked before he left.

"I dont know." He said and left.

I opened it and saw a doll with sorry and a note.

"Dear y/n,

I'm sorry for what my father said to you. I couldn't take a lot of what my father said about you. After you told about those kids, I thought to myself. If they could do, why can't I? I thought It'd go proper. But nothing went as planned. Im really sorry. If you accept my apology, I'm at the park near the corner. I'll be waiting. It's ok if you don't accept my apology. I deserve it.

-Jeon Jungkook"

More tears flowed.

I ran to the park. The doll was still in my hand.

I ran as fast as I could. I dashed a lot of them in between.

I reached soon and looked for Jungkook.

He was seated on the grass field, by the pond and throwing stones.

I went and stood behind and called.

"K-k-kookie."

He paused, got up and turned towards me. He came forward.

He wiped my tears with his thumb.

"I don't wanna see you cry." He said softly.

"I'm sorry." He said. I didn't say anything and hugged him.

"It's ok. You didn't do anything." He comforted me.

We smiled and walked back home. I lay down on my bed and couldn't stop thinking about Jungkook.

Jungkook, you really drive me crazy for you. It's getting a lot that it's difficult to hide my feelings. I should tell soon.

I couldn't sleep all night. I was thinking of Tae oppa gets to know about this, he'll become a fireball.

And I don't want that to happen.

I called hobi oppa.

Hoseok: Y/n, what is it, this late?

Me: Oppa, I'm sorry to disturb you. But can you please not tell Tae oppa about this. Please.

Hoseok: Y/n, don't worry. I won't tell anyone. Now, sleep tight.

Y/n: really sorry to disturb you. Good night!

I threw the phone on the bed and looked at the ceiling.

'I hope oppa doesn't get mad even if he knows about it. I didn't actually expect this to happen.

I never knew kookie would take a decision like that soon. But he made a choice for him.'

*knock knock

The door opened revealing Jungkook.

"What are you doing late up night?" I asked sitting up.

"I saw your light on and thought you might be awake. I couldn't sleep. Something's disturbing."

"Come here." I said tapping on the empty seat.

"Is it about you speaking with your dad?"

"I guess."

"See, you made the right choice. You chose what you wanted. It's your life. You decide. You know, hoseok oppa said, 'You're the leader of your own life.' And it is true. You're the leader of your life and you decide what you should do."

"I'm not sure. Maybe I took the decision too fast?"

"No, you did it at the right time. This time is to prove yourself that you can stand in your own leg. Do your best for what you want and you'll get it. "Dream big to the point that it is beyond your ability and endeavour to achieve it." Yoongi oppa always says it when I'm low or broken down. When he said that, I cried a lot that day. I cried for more than a day."

As I said a tear escaped. I wiped it before he could see.

"Thanks for cheering me up. Good night." He said.

"Night." I said and lay down and slept.
