Love That Devours
The edge of farewell
The rain poured down relentlessly, cold and unyielding, as Taehyung stood on the edge of the cliff, barely holding on. His left arm was drenched in blood, shot and useless at his side, while his leg trembled beneath him.
In front of him, sam stood with a gun aimed directly at his head, black-suited men silently waiting behind him, like shadows.
sam
It's finally time to say goodbye, Taehyung," sam's voice was cold, devoid of any mercy.
Taehyung wiped the blood from his lips.
Taehung
" yeah I guess so " with a smrik
Sam's eyes narrowed, anger flashing as he snarled.
sam
"I was ordered to keep you alive until he got here but i don't think u deserve it " in a cold voice
Taehung
Taehyung sighed, not in defeat but resignation . "yeah "
That was enough to send Sam over the edge. He smirked, his finger tightening on the trigger.
sam
" you finally know your place "
sam raised the gun to Taehyung's head, ready to pull the trigger when the roar of an engine pierced through the rain. A car sped toward them, screeching to a halt just meters away. From the car, Jungkook stormed out, his eyes blazing as he grabbed sam' s wrist , forcing the gun away.
jungkook
" Hah! Are you happy now?
Jungkook’s voice was rough, each word punctuated by his rapid breaths.
Taehyung said nothing, his gaze fixed on Jungkook with a bittersweet smile.
jungkook
“Why the hell are you smiling?”
Jungkook demanded, frustration and confusion etched on his face as he shook the rain from his hair.
Taehung
“I can finally see you before the farewell "
Taehyung’s voice was soft, tender but the emotion behind these words cut through the rain like a knife .
jungkook
“You really think I’m going to let you go?"
Jungkook’s tone was firm, but the fear of losing Taehyung was evident in his eyes.
Taehyung shook his head slowly, his smile never faltering.
Taehung
"No, you will not " while smiling
Jungkook began, but Taehyung’s voice was interrupted, each word heavy with resignation.
Taehung
“You won’t… but I will."
Taehyung’s voice wavered, his eyes shimmering with tears.
Taehung
“Maybe in another life.”
The words hung in the air, a haunting promise of a future that would never come. Jungkook’s hands clenched into fists, his heart pounding as he took a step toward Taehyung. Just as he reached out, trying to grasp the impossible, Taehyung took a step back, his body swaying on the precipice.
Lunging forward as Taehyung let himself fall backward off the cliff. Jungkook dove after him, but just as he was about to catch his hand, Taehyung pulled away, smiling through his tears.
Taehung
"Farewell, my love,"
Taehyung closed his eyes, disappearing into the abyss below leaving his beloved behind .
As jungkook saw him disappearing, he grit his teeth , clench his hands and makes a vow .
jungkook
" you belong to me and I'll find you out even if I have to go to hell" with tears .
My love, sorry
As, teahung fell from the cliff, he saw jungkook crying.
Taehung
" why are you crying?"
Taehung
" Don't cry, my love " with tears
Taehung
" Even if we can't be together anymore. You will always be in my heart, my love "
Taehung mumbled these lines as he closed his eyes .
As deep as he went, someone's flashback started to come into his mind .
Taehung sees a boy in his early teens who was running with him by holding hands. He couldn't see his face but only his back.
Taehung
" he really has a nice back " smile while closing his eyes .
Then he finally sees the boy's face as he turns towards taehung and said " tae " in a soft voice while smiling
Taehung
" hah! it's really you !" while tears were flooding from his closed eyes .
He was jungkook , running with taehung in their college time while holding hands .
Taehung
" He really shines when he smiles "
A smile came across taehung's face as he said this word .
" Back to the present time "
Taehung
"where did everything go wrong "
He mumbled
Taehung
" was it because we fell too quickly" or " was it because we were never meant to be ".
Taehung
" But I'll never regret meeting you" .
Taehung
" I'm sorry my love , it's my fault that you turned like this "
Taehung
" But even if i went back in time , i would still choose that decision. "
Taehung
" Even if you hate me , I'll always love you, my love "
After seeing these things, he finally accepted his fate and went to the abyss.

Taehung's Dad

Taehung couldn't control his emotions as he was finally able to see his parents who he lost a long time ago in front of him.
Taehung
"ran towards them and hugged them "
After seeing taehung's reaction both his parents were quite surprised because he rarely expressed his emotions.
Taehung
" I missed you too very much "
After seeing taehung's crying, both parents got worried about him and started comforting him .
Taehung's Dad
" who made my lovely son cry huh?"
Taehung's Dad
