Guardian of the forest
Jimin slowly gets up from his seat. He is angry, but he holds it back for now because getting that worked up could only complicate things further.
The way to meet Heeyeon was at least bearable, since I could see her. When I arrived where Jungkook was, Heeyeon, whom I expected to run around and play, was sitting and just staring at the water marbles. Then, she buried her face deep into the marbles and let out a deep sigh.
" ..Heeyeon.. "
" ..Why did you come.. "
I wanted to talk a little.
With whom?
With you
Heeyeon glances at Jimin and says she has nothing to say, then tries to enter the water where Jungkook is.
Jimin wasn't the type to let that in easily. He grabbed Heeyeon's wrist and stopped her from going inside. The thing Heeyeon was holding in her hand
The water beads bounce down to the ground, and Jimin speaks, begging so earnestly to talk, even if just a little. How could Heeyeon refuse? As a sign that she understood.
Nodding my head
The two returned to the forest. Heeyeon felt unfamiliar with the forest, which had become even darker than before they left. The leaves were withered, and thunder and lightning struck occasionally. She was startled every time, and Jimin grabbed her by the shoulder and pulled her closer. As a result, Jimin and Heeyeon's bodies were pressed tightly together. Heeyeon, who had been spacing out, pulled away in surprise and told him to get to the point.
" ..The matter.. You're the one who has to say the matter. Ah, that's what you want.
I guess I have to say something
What do you mean by that?
The fact that I didn't know you would end up in this state
I regret it, and I'm sorry.
And sending you there while pretending not to know anything, too
I'm sorry and
I'm so sorry for everything I did to you that day.
Heeyeon said, "Do you think saying that will make me feel better?" She got even angrier, claiming that the man had originally intended to kick her out. Tears welled up in her eyes, and Jimin was flustered, as she had never thought or even tried to think that way. Jimin hurriedly denied it, saying it was absolutely not true, but Heeyeon had no intention of letting it go. Jimin asked, "What do I have to do for you to believe me?" Heeyeon shouted that she didn't know, shook off Jimin's hand, and walked away.
"He should know that himself, not ask me..."
Pak-
" !! "
Jimin gave her a back hug. Heeyeon was surprised. Before she could say anything, Jimin buried his face in her shoulder and kept saying he was sorry, and sorry again. It was getting to the point where she was sick and tired of it. But that didn't matter to Heeyeon; all her attention was focused on the fact that the warmth she was feeling behind her right now belonged to Park Jimin.
Unaware of this, Jimin continued speaking, saying he would make sure this never happened again and that he wouldn't let her doubt him, pressing down hard on Heeyeon whom he was holding.
"If you trust me just one more time, I'll make sure that doesn't happen again."
I'll make sure you don't doubt me..
Heeyeon, who thought it was cute that Jimin was clinging to her like a cat, was startled. With her ears slightly flushed, she pushed Jimin away and said, "If you do that again, I won't care about you being an old man or anything." Only then did Jimin's face relax, and the fog cleared a little. Then she asked him what he thought of his parents. At that, Heeyeon told her not to ask such things.
"Honestly, I don't like the fact that those people are alive."
It's annoying that you made me like this, too.
I don't even want to see you living well.
It’s disgusting even to let those bastards live.
Jimin spoke with a serious face, and Heeyeon understood to some extent. Heeyeon also disliked them and was annoyed by them. Jimin continued, asking what she thought. Heeyeon looked at Jimin with a confused expression. Then Jimin said this.
"Then I'll handle it myself?"
" ..yes.. "
Don't blame me no matter what the outcome is.
Heeyeon swallows dryly and nods her head.
Jimin smiled and said it was fine. He sent her to Taehyung for now; since Taehyung is the guardian of fire, the surroundings are a bit warm, so that is why he sent her. Jimin looked around the forest, which had become quite clean after Heeyeon left, and found out where Heeyeon's biological parents were. It was different from the place they were at last time. He wondered if they had gone to buy something since they had gotten some money. Jimin waited until nightfall. He had left Heeyeon with Taehyung and waited as well, and by the time it was dark and everyone was falling asleep, Jimin left the forest and went to them.
When I entered the room, it looked old both on the outside and on the inside, and it was even stranger that it hadn't collapsed. I wondered if the biological parents had eaten their fill.
She was sleeping with her belly resting on her hand. How dare you... considering you tried to do that to Heeyeon! Jimin lifted Heeyeon's mom and dad with tree branches. At that, they were startled and
Shouting "Who is it?", the man claiming to be Jimin's father hurled insults at him. Next to him, Mom told him to calm down, saying she was the guardian of the forest. Only then did Dad, startled, ask what brought them to this wretched place. That question made Jimin angry.
Why do you think I came here because of people like you?
The parents cautiously asked why, but he looked like he really didn't know. That only made Jimin's anger rise even higher; he was seething with rage. Jimin once again held back his frustration and continued speaking.
Do you really think I came without a reason?
"What is the reason you think that?"
The parents thought it was a good thing because the guardian spirit had come.
They were talking with smiles, unaware of their future, but then they shut their mouths because of Jimin's aura.
I didn't know you guys were Heeyeon's biological parents.
However, since Heeyeon's mother always came looking for Heeyeon...
I thought you guys were regretting it.
So I made up my mind and sent you back.
however..
They really messed up the kid.
You'll know what the condition is like without me having to say it.
While Jimin was speaking, the parents were surprised, and what he was saying was
They say they didn't do that.
