Chapter 11

"Hoseok?" Jimin choked out, as if it was the only word that can come out of his tounge at this moment. The Masked Figure, whom Jimin thought of was Hoseok, had his eyes crinkled, a sign that he was smiling at him through the thin black fabric.

Visions of his hyung took over his mind, alone and taking medications which only made him worse by the minute. The thought gave him goosebumps.

"Hoseok-hyung? You're really...?" Jimin breathed out unable to continue as he was loss for words and his vision gets blurry because of the tears.

Hoseok nodded, seeing Jimin on the verge of crying made him emotional too. He stood up first before seeing the sight of Jimin, layed on the floor crying like a baby. Hoseok offered his hand, for Jimin to stand up, Jimin gladly accepted and stood up wiping his existential tears.

They both hugged tightly as if they'll disappear within each others reach. But the difference is that they're not anxious because of what treatment will they get from the doctors next like before, they're anxious because what if Hoseok is sent back, what if Jimin will be accused of his 'crimes' once again.

"It's me Jimin, Don't worry i'm not a fake working for those people who are trying to break you" Hoseok reassured him, making Jimin snicker while hitting him playfully.

"You scared me back there, I really thought you were out to get me and all, given that you are wearing THAT clothing" Jimin laughed while imitating what happened seconds ago, only Hoseok did was laugh while being embarassed a little. His clothing was a bit suspicious, given that all his forms of fabric was the color black and he has his face all hidden up like he was a superstar trying to hide from the fans and the press.

"It was supposed to be a surprise!" Hoseok mourned, pouting and making a cute expression to Jimin.

They both laughed afterwards, Hoseok's humour was still present even after a long long time.

════════════════

"Not to offend you or anything Hyung, but how, how did you manage to get out of there, I thought you loss contact with all your friends and family" Jimin asked after taking an order from the menu while the waiter left to manage their foods and beverages.

Hoseok bit his lip, he knew that Jimin will ask this question because of how impossible it was for him to even heal and find a managable law suit or psychogist.

Still he hesitated, wheter to tell the truth or not. Flashbacks of what happened when it was declared after that Jimin was out of the hospital started to take place at the back of his mind.

"Hey, have you heard about Ms. Hyojoo? That nurse who was privately tasked to take care of Patient No. 21894? I heard she suddenly took a leave, without any valid reason" A chattering staff told the other one, their chat was loud enough for Hoseok to hear them besides the metal door of his isolated room.

The other one was kinda hesitant, maybe because he was new here and didn't know any names from other staffs yet.

"I don't know her at all but she kinda seems familiar, When it was my first day here and time for a daily checkup, I heard the Head Doctor called her name while I stand at the waiting shed with her, but all I heard was something or someone getting hit, I couldn't do something since the door was locked and another nurse advised me to proceed working" The 'witness' as Hoseok thought of can sense the anxiety in his voice.

Hoseok shook the thought while Jimin kept on babbling about how his day went, he just faked a smile, pretending he was listening.

"Hyung, you still haven't told me about how you were discharged" Jimin murmured while looking down, he doesn't wanna force Hoseok into anything but he demands to know the truth.

"I-

"Attention: All Patients, Staffs, and Doctors please proceed to all exits of this hospital at once"

"Why..Why are we running?!"

"That Murderer, he, he's coming after you"

"Patient No. 21894, There you are"

*clank*

There goes the fork, the sound inaudible to Hoseok's ear. Good thing he was just having hallucinations, or he will cause a rampage in the cafe right then and there.

He clawed his hair, irritation took over his emotions as Jimin picked up the fork and noticed how strange Hoseok was acting just because of a simple question

"The Psychologist..made you took some medications and listed it for you to take before discharging you....right?" Jimin asked, once again.

Surprised, he looked up instantly, as if it was a wake up call to Hoseok that he must answer right away.

"Of course, I'm just exhausted today because I was searching for you non-stop" Hoseok retorted. It was a bad lie to be honest, but he wasn't showing any signs of bluffing.

Jimin noticed right away the suspicious words behind his lips. The way Hoseok looked away everytime he looked at him. His fingers fidgeting under the table. But he has had enough, he doesn't wanna take suspicions on one of the persons who gave joy to his hell-bound life. Jimin knew that the accident he experienced left scars and lessons but he wasn't going to let the past define his principles on his fellow citizens and friends.

"Alright, but please just tell me if you're not okay and having one of your attacks again. It really makes me worried" Jimin confessed. Hoseok gushed how Jimin can be so caring and sweet to everyone, he thought that maybe he won't even hurt a fly if he sees one.

'The one who marries him will be so lucky, you don't feel things like this in a person everyday' Hoseok thought.

While thinking about Marriage Internally a thought crosses his mind; Jungkook. He has heard that name a few times, of course from Jimin. He has heard few rumors about them but Jimin never actually told Hoseok much about it, just a few good descriptions like 'oh he was a very good friend of mine why'd you ask' but he saw how sad and empty Jimin looked like whenever he mentions how they were so close to each other. One time, he even heard Jimin murmur his name like a chant in his sleep, but it wasn't a good dream though it's almost like he's calling for Jungkook.

"I'm fine really, but how are you coping with it, the accused allegations and stuff like that..do you have any friends around here?" Hoseok asked. Wondering if Jimin was recovering smoothly.

"I..have a slightly horrible recocer recently, having a few breakdowns and stuff but atleast I found someone, well I can admit he is really sweet, taking care of me and accepting me, he's beautiful and perfect in every way" Jimin gushes while talking about that someone, his eyes were almost close to sparkling, the way his face blushes when he talks about that person.

"I don't know I always feel-

Like your heart always beats unusually when you see him?" Hoseok cutted him off, it was blatantly obvious. How he compliments that person behind his back, how he practically wants to talk to the whole world how he's so perfect and how he's sweet.

"I..I don't know hyung" He lied. Hoseok can see through it.

"Like you feel butterflies whenever he touches you or even make a small skinship with you?" Hoseok teased, adding a little smirk while he's at it.

'this gay ass is onto me..f*ck' Jimin cursed at Hoseok in his mind. He remembered how Taehyung always hugged him, while he returned the favor too..in daegu, Jimin thought, all that skinship they shared made him blush. Even though he tries to hide it infront of Hobi, which he fails to do.

"Or when you always blush when he looks and stares at you constantly and when you mention his name even just for a few seconds?" Hoseok tested his patience, this boi knew even the smallest of details, he knew Jimin easily blushes at everything but he never showed this much attention to someone before.

As if Hoseok switched something inside of Jimin, he blushed even more, looking like a cherry blossom to Hoseok. He was frustrated how Hoseok's words were true, how he depicted how Jimin struggles hiding those feelings everyday because he just knows he will get hurt at the end.

How he remembers Taehyung almost kissing him, how he compliments Jimin almost every hour of the day.

"Ohh someone's reminiscing somethin-

HYUNG YOU'RE GETTING ON MY NERVES!" Jimin shouted and held Hoseok's collar. While Hoseok just laughed like a maniac and making Jimin even more frustrated.

"Silly, you have a crush on someone! Don't you?! It's so obvious you're practically love-sick pfft HAHAHAHA!" Hoseok laughed again. Jimin widened his eyes while covering Hoseok's mouth, afraid that someone will hear.

People were stealing glances at them now, they were so LOUD that even the staffs could hear at the back. Though both of them didn't care.

"Hyung, I'm not love-sick! It's just i'm so grateful that he helps me and befriends me!"

"Park Jimin, you are really an idiot! It's plastered on your face; you have a freaking crush on someone, you just won't admit it because I will tease and annoy you all about it" Hoseok teased him again.

Jimin ignored and proceeded eating the simple food that was resting on the table while they talked their way through.

...

"Ugh, Jungkook can't we just leave them behind? They're practically reuniting or something I can see it in their eyes" Eun Ha complained while both of them looks out the car windows of Jungkooks black car.

"If it weren't for my father, I can just leave you behind" Jungkook whispered, causing Eun Ha to glare at him.

"Fine, Fine if that Jimin-sshi weren't such a nice little friend to you, I'll probably shove myself onto the drivers seat and leave them behind" Eun Ha bickered, while Jungkook just ignored her words and start looking at Jimin and probably a friend of his were talking so eagerly they haven't even noticed that Jungkook was staring at them from afar.

Eun Ha founded ways to slap the boredom off of her, maybe eat but she thought how soon their wedding will happen and regretted ever thinking about it. Honsetly, seducing Jungkook and impressing her parents was hard for her, she has to have a daily diet routine and go to the Gym every week to have a slim body that Jungkook will die for.

But the boy wasn't showing signs of affection, infact he couldn't even look at her in the eyes and say she was beautiful or compliment her once in awhile. She has to endure this because they were both just arranged, Eun Ha's Parents were going broke because of the company and the only way to solve this was to arrange her with a rich businessman.

She was lucky though. Jungkook didn't abuse her or anything, nor even touched or forced her to something. But she was craving for attention, that's why she's making it a habit to always cling onto him, give him food that he likes, and wear revealing dresses everyday. That's how she craves attention so much from a boy who can literally kill a girl just by winking at her.

While Eun Ha rethinks about her life, staring at the opposite side of him, Jungkook saw that they were both walking to the exit, that's his cue to leave the car and offer him a ride..if this woman of his didn't have such an advantage towards his father, he would probably enjoy the ride with just him and Jimin.

Jimin's PoV

"I really can't believe it's literally late in the midnight now" Jimin gaped while staring at his watch. Hoseok chuckled, knowing that they were so immersed in their conversation they didn't cared how the time passes.

"Yeah, maybe because it's really such a long time since we talked and spend time with each other" Hoseok said, while looking for someplace to call a taxi.

Suddenly, as they wait infront of the just closed restaurant, the car infront of them revealed a person in the driver's seat.

It was a tall man, with dark brown hair, and clothes that indicate he just got out from work

Jimin knew right away that it was Jungkook. But he didn't know that he would be late in the streets with his expensive looking car parked just right infront of the restaurant they were eating.

He looked up and was met by Jimin and Hoseok, Hoseok looking a bit taken aback by his features that were somewhat familiar.

That's it. He remembered.

"So you're Patient No. 21894? Hah didn't knew that you were really the one. I kidnapped some patients to make sure I got the right one. Killed few of them to be honest. That nurse doesn't tell the truth." The head, as Hoseok assumed of, explained while he was handcuffed and was seated in one of the head's office. Right after he told them that Park Jimin was his roommate he captured him right away, away from the torture sessions the witnesses were experiencing ever so often.

"So.." The Boss (Rae Seok) stroked his table and looked viciously at Hoseok, looking as if he'll kill him right away if he muttered any funny business.

"You happen to know Park Jimin because he's your roommate, do you happen to know why he is even in there with you?" Rae Seok started, this was the first question a witness will have to answer correctly to pass Rae Seok's trust.

And so Hoseok started, he answers honestly, but didn't knew about Jungkook, he stated that Jimin mentions names ever so often and that it was Jungkook's name.

Rae Seok smiled, he finally founded a keeper, the one who will give him anything he asked for, the one who Jimin still trusts. And still, they tortured him, but a minor one, the other ones (such as the nurse, the head doctor, the psychiatrist) were given poor treatment that they can barely think about survival right now.

"Why did you called me for?" Hoseok asked. His head peered up curiously to a picture Rae Seok showed him, A boy with a young face. Dark Brown Hair, doe eyes, thin lips and quite tall.

"You know Jungkook right? I told you about him, and since you have been so useful right now I'm giving you a mission"

He widened his eyes, a mission, yes, all hostages must do one and if failed they will be killed miserably.

"But all of them must come with a price right? Remember how you wanted to get out of that hospital legally and live in a suitable house? Well, i'm giving it to you right now but if you succeed then I will pay you enough money that you can live with for 3 Years"

"What is it? What do I have to do?"

"This boy you are seeing right now, that is Jungkook, I have found him alive and breathing although he forgot what we did to him"

"Listen to me, befriend Jimin, regain his trust, all while Jungkook starts to remember him, and when he does, kill him..kill him by all hidden means possible"
