The truth

*next day

I woke up and stretched myself. My hand pained a bit, as I hadn't taken the medicine for a few days.

My head hurted a lot.

"What did I even do yesterday?" I whispered to myself.

"You're awake." I heard another voice. I looked up and saw Yoongi.

"What are you doing in my room?"

"Look around." He said and looked around and realised it was Yoongi's room.

"What am I doing here? How did I even come here?"

"You were drunk like hell and I brought you here. Be thankful."

He sat down on the chair and looked at me.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"I need to know few things. But before that, do you remember what you did yesterday?"

"No. Did I do something wrong?"

He shook his head saying no.

"What is it, that you want to know?"

"Yesterday, you said that, you did the biggest mistake in your life. What is that? What is the biggest mistake you did? How does it matter to you if I talk with my parents or not?"

I thought for a minute about what Jisoo said.

'Telling it to a stranger rater than someone you know, you will feel better.' Will it really work?

"What are you thinking a lot for?"

"N-nothing. It's just that, I can't trust people easily."

"Don't worry. Nothing will go out from here." I nodded.

"I am the only child for my parents. I was their everything. I had this sepearte love for basketball and I was scared to tell them about it, cause they wanted me to be an architecture. I had no interest in it. I practiced on my own, without my parents knowing. Jungkook, Jimin and Jisoo were the one who helped get there." As I said a tear dropped.

"I had applied for James oppa's coaching centre and I had gotten into it, along with Jisoo. The boys had also applied for their coaching and had informed their parents, and they were waiting for me to tell my parents. But I couldn't tell them, but I knew one or the other day, they have to know, so I decided to tell them."

"I told them that I want to be a basketball player, but it turned into a fight and I came out of the house. I wrote a letter saying I will enter the SIBC and win in that and then only enter the house, until they want me to. It has been 3 years and I haven't heard anything from them. Then I got into James's coaching and then came to you, hurt myself and her I am, not able to practice. This game really means everything to me. I need to win this. This means everything."

And tears streamed down. I wiped them and looked at him.

"Sorry, it's just foolish. Forget what I said."

"It's not foolish. It's not wrong to miss your parents."

"How is it related to mine?"

"You are angry at your father because he had married someone else. But have you ever thought why he did marry someone else? He must've done it to show you another mother figure. I know how much your mother means to you. But she wouldn't come back. Gone is gone. And Taehyung, I feel sad for him everyday. He hopes that you will talk to him and accept him as his brother. He looks at you with all the love he could. He still puts on a smile, even if he's hurt inside. Just talk to him, atleast once."

"You should be grateful to have a brother like Taehyung. The first time I met him, he was very kind and gentle. But he was sad when he had called his mom asking about you. He had brought you your favourite drink. He has done a lot of things to you, with you knowing about it, cause he feels the only time you talk to him is when you shout at him. He takes it with pleasure. You're really lucky to have someone, like Taehyung."

I had said a lot and he just listened, saying nothing.

"Now tell. What do you wanna ask?"

"What?" I asked.

"You've told me about you. I know you have something to ask about me, what is it?"

"First, you finish your work, then I'll ask you whatever it is." I smiled weakly at him and walked to my room and shut the door.

Yoongi's POV

She said and went to her room.

'She wants me to talk to them now? But how?'

As I was about to leave, someone knocked on the door. And it opened revealing Taehyung.

"What are you here for?" I asked.

"Y/n called me. So, I came." He said and walked to her room.

'This would be my chance. If not now, never.'

"Taehyung." I called him. He turned.

"What is it hyung?"

'She was right. I shouldn't hate him.'

"Can we talk?" I asked.

"Sure, hyung." He said and I patted the empty space next to me. He seated down and I faced him.

"Taehyung, what do you think about me?"

"Is there any problem hyung? Hyung, if Y/n said something about you, don't take it. She's just joking."

"No..no. Nothing like that. I just want to know, from you."

"Ok. You're really sweet and caring. You really like basketball more than anything. You are so talented than I am. You are really an inspiration to me and..... I really like you so much hyung."

"But... But I have been the opposite to you."

"Hyung, I know how caring you are. I know that you're worry inside, but don't show it."

'He's right. I am not able to express myself, during the right time.'

"are you free tomorrow?"

"Ne hyung."

"How about we go for a coffee or lunch?" I asked.

"Ok hyung." He said and walked over to Y/n's room.

'He's really like what Y/n said.' I smiled and walked down.

******************

Third person POV

Taehyung knocked on Y/n's door and she opened.

He entered happily and hugged Y/n, immediately.

"What's the matter? You're too happy." She said.

"Y/n, hyung asked if we could go for lunch or coffee tomorrow. I am really happy."

"Well, I told you he will soon accept you."

"All thanks to you Y/n. From the time you entered here, everything has been going good."

"You should thank your brother for changing."

********************

Y/n's POV

I was in my room, thinking what to do next. How to practice and other things.

The door suddenly opened and I was startled.

"Why?" I asked, holding my chest.

"Sorry. But I just wanna get things cleared by today. So ask me whatever it is."

"Are you gonna leave me?" I said and got up and drank water.

"It's just too disturbing."

"Ok. I hope you remember my friend, Jisoo, who came that day." He nodded.

"Well, she sent me an article, about you. And it said you were selected for the SIBC but I couldn't see you during the finals? Why?" I asked, hesitating.

"Did you see the semi-finals?" He asked. I shook my head, saying no.

"That was when I came to Seoul." He nodded.

"Do you really want to know?"

"Yes." I said, firmly.

"Well, I hope you don't tell it anyone else." He said and got up and removed his jacket.

"Wh-what are you doing?" I asked.

"Don't get the wrong idea." He said and sat in front of me, with his back facing.

He slowly dragged his shirt down his shoulder and there was a mark on his shoulder.

I looked deep and realised he had had a surgery.

"What is this?" I asked as I touched it. It was healed.

"On my way to the finals practice, I had an accident and I was taken to the hospital. They said I had to have a surgery. I too cried like you but it was all in vain and after my surgery they said that I can't take part in the finals and my dream shattered. It all broke into pieces. I didn't know hwat else to do and Hoseok and Namjoon said to be a trainer. I decided and started training. And now I train you." He said.

'So much pain. And yet I had showed him only hate. I feel really bad, for everything I did. I shouldn't have splashed water on him or talked behind his back or done any bad things that had hurt him.'

As I saw his healed stitch, tears flowed silently. I didn't know why. Was it cause he has gone through a lot? Or for everything I did?

"Y/n?" He called. I quickly wiped my tears and hummed in response. He turned and looked at me.

"Did you cry?" He asked. I shook my head saying no.

"I can see you did." As he said, more tears flowed.

"W-wae?" He asked worried.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything I did." I felt really bad.

"Hey, it's ok. You don't need to apologise." He said.

"No. I have behaved the worst to you. I didn't know you had gone through a lot and I just gave you more hurt. So what if you couldn't play, but cutting your hand doesn't make any of the problems go."

"H-how did you know?" He asked. I wiped my tears and replied.

"I am not that blind. I can see your cuts under the make-up you have put. That's a lot."

"Well, I didn't have anyone to talk about my feelings." He said.

"What about your friends?"

"They have their own problems and I don't them to worry more about me."

"Well, you have me now. You can talk to me about whatever it is." I said. He nodded and I hugged him and smiled and left down.

As I got down, I saw Taehyung waiting for me.

"Y/n, someone's here to see you." I furrowed my eyebrows and walked to the living room. I was shocked to see who it was.

Yoongi came behind me and he was shocked, same as me.

"How are we gonna face this?" I whispered to him.

"It's up to you." He said and was about to leave, but I pulled his shirt and he stood there.

"You leave me alone in this, I'll tell everyone why you weren't able to play the finals."

I quickly hid my hand behind, as I saw him.
