"Do you think it was right to let him run away, Agent Juliet?"

"He will learn it the hard way, Namjoon. Let him be," Jimin explained and got off the chair.

"What do you mean?"

"A man's mind is complicated and so is his heart. He doesn't understand the difference between right and wrong once he falls for someone. It takes a proper closure and heartbreak to realise how wrong he was. To realise how deep he has fallen into the pit of troubles due to one wrong company."

"Are you implying that he is working for the man who claims to be his lover?"

Jimin leaned his back over the table behind him, "Could you do me a favour?"

"Sure! What is it, sir?" Namjoon addressed formally to show his respect, not in terms of age but in terms of experience in the field.

"Follow Jungkook and safely escort him back without a scratch over his body-"

"What do you mean?"

"The man will be out there to kill Jungkook the moment he sees him. He would have confirmed by now that he is in our custody. He would be afraid that Jungkook would have spilt facts about him to us or would do so near future once he's caught again. That's how it works, hyung. That's how cruel people are. Get him before he gets hurt-"

Before Jimin could finish his statement, Namjoon rushed towards the entrance. He called for a backup and wheeled down his car to find Jungkook.

One hour after Jungkook's escape~

"Y..you were home," Jungkook breathed heavily as he took steps towards the male that sat across the couch with his back facing him.

"I heard you were caught by the police," the male said.

"D-dont worry about that! I escaped successfully. They will never catch me-" Jungkook answered breathing heavily.

He had run for an hour till he reached his house.

To meet his lover.

"But they saw your face," the male retorted in a low tone.

"It doesn't matter. They will never catch me again, I promise. I didn't disclose your name either. We are still safe," Jungkook justified and smiled softly as he saw the male stand up and turn towards him.

"How did you escape?"

"Huh? Well..." Jungkook's voice trailed off as he stepped closer.

"They let you go. Didn't they? And your foolish ass thought it was a great idea to come straight home without thinking they would be tracking?" The male screamed over Jungkook's face.

"Aren't you happy that I came home safely?" Jungkook asked with teary eyes.

Don't blame Jungkook. He was just eighteen and immature at learning people's intentions. He fell into a toxic relationship not realising how deep it would cut him before he could properly think.

Jungkook spent days learning the knacks to crack vaults of different types just to impress this guy. He didn't know why he expected that from him but felt delighted when the male praised him every time he unlocked a vault.

It was his first solo burglary that he performed the night Jimin caught him.  He was unsure of the consequences yet did it because he felt it was right.

That it would make his lover acknowledge him.

That it would make the man love him.

He craved for that one word of appreciation but he never received it.

"I..thought you would be proud of me," Jungkook's lips wobbled.

"Bitch! They are coming to catch you. And most importantly catch me! Which part of that do you not get? Why the fuck should I be proud of you?"

"I did everything you told me to do. I tried my best not to reveal your identity and all you do is blame me for everything! Can't you defend me for once?" Jungkook screamed back with tears building in his orbs.

"How fucking useless can you get?" The male screamed and pushed Jungkook towards the wall harshly.

"I never meant anything to you. Did I?" Jungkook's breathing was hampered.

"Bitch! You were just a toy that I used to extort money! I don't care about your feelings-" the male's voice was cut short by the sound of a bullet.

The male fell over the ground holding his knee and squirming in pain. The bullet came right through the window and pierced right over the male's knee.

Jungkook's eyes blew wide as he witnessed the situation. His ears went numb. He couldn't hear anything. The man he believed loved him back, had betrayed him and was over the ground squirming in pain.

What triggered Jungkook's insides was the knife beside the male.

Was he going to stab Jungkook?

Was he going to kill Jungkook to protect himself?

How selfish was he?

The fire burned in Jungkook's orbs and his heart burned down the last sweet confession he received from the traitor that lay there over the floor.

He stepped toward the betrayer and punched him to death. He couldn't take in the truth that punctured his heart tonight. He kept throwing punches and screaming at the male who lay there unconscious.

"Stop right there!" Namjoon ordered as he broke the door and rushed towards the scene with a gun in his hand.

Jungkook was tired.

Tired from starving two days straight.

Tired of running hours to reach his home.

To meet the person he believed loved him for who he was.

Tired of everything in particular.

He crashed over the ground beside the unconscious male. His eyes fluttered shut as he took a last breath of heaviness.

Jimin tilted his head slightly to look at the scene from afar. After he confirmed Namjoon's presence inside the room, he slowly lifted the long sniper and placed it back into the bag.

"Why did you shoot the guy? It isn't like you?" Taehyung asked over the mic.

"I didn't want to either. It just felt right to do so. I felt the boy wanted to shoot him too. I did it on his behalf. Can't let those young hands get blood on them. Not until he is trained."

Jimin paused to lean over the railings to look at the boy that Namjoon picked up gently to escort him, "Not until he is doing it to save someone. I hope Namjoon will train him to be a decent agent," with that Jimin turned around and jumped off the building.

A/n:- Okay! Before you throw out opinions.

Let me tell you a few things.

No one is perfect in the world. Everyone has flaws and everyone has at least one thing in their lives that they regret.

Jungkook is also a human. He had made a mistake after he joined hands with a toxic person. It takes a lot of strength to come out of a relationship that you believed was true. It takes time and support from the people around you.

However, he is blessed to have met a mature adult like Namjoon to guide him in future days.

I wanted you guys to know every character's perspective before you judge them.

Hope you liked the chapter

Love you guys
