Episode 23
FAREWELL TAEBITCH
NAMHYE POV
"There you are! I've been looking for you everywhere here! Why are you both at the back of the fansign?" I asked as I marched my way towards them, mentally thanking Yunho for telling me the venue.
Jungkook looked at me, and I tilted my head as I stared at him. He was the only one there.
"Why are you the only one here?" I asked and Jungkook stared at me before pointing to the right direction in an instant, to a tree hidden in the bushes.
Thank you God, for making Jungkook a snitch.
"Taehyung, get out. Let's talk," I said and I stared at the tree that was shaking a bit. I sighed as Taehyung slowly peeked his head out.
"Are you mad at me?" He mumbled, his puppy eyes showing as he looks at me.
"Really, who is older here? I'm not mad, I just want you to explain," I sighed deeply, and Taehyung nodded as he slowly stepped out.
Then, Taehyung told me everything. I discovered they were kicked out and Baekhyun was bitten, I know he's a meal, but he's not a literal meal that has to be eaten.
"Alright, cut it out, Taesimp," I rolled my eyes as he kept tugging my uniform, sulking as Jungkook followed us.
"Do you think he'll hate me?" Taehyung pouted.
"He won't. Why would he be mad at someone who's just a guardian?" I replied as I walked away, and Taehyung slumped his shoulders.
"Now come on, let's go get some food," I said like a mother of five children, and Taehyung's eyes lit up.
"Really? You're not mad at me?" He smiled, and I sighed deeply.
"No use getting mad over something that already happened. Besides, I'm hungry," I replied and he started skipping.
"Your treat?" He smiled.
"Fine, my treat," I rolled my eyes as he walked beside me.
Sometimes I wonder if he's younger than me.
"This might be because you finally feel bad about me treating you all the time," he said dreamily and I looked at him.
"It was your duty as an older brother dumbass, I didn't even have an allowance back in the day since uncle packs me lunch all the time," I replied.
"Sometimes I wonder where all your joy and light has gone off to Namhye, you used to be so sweet and lovely back in the day," he muttered.
FLASHBACK
"Ah, don't worry Namhye! Don't cry!" Taehyung said as he struggled to carry me at his back.
He was 8 and I was 7. We went swimming on a river near our home I eventually sprained my ankle, in which was mostly Taehyung's fault for pushing me.
"Y-you're so mean!" I cried as I wiped my tears, and he was still carrying me on his back despite his clothes being wet, and his shoes had water in them.
"Your big brother will also be with you! No matter how stupid I may be, I'll always protect you! That's my duty!" He said and I kept crying through the walk home.
"You said you'll protect me but you just pushed me! Now I hate you!" I sobbed and Taehyung sighed.
"I said I'm sorry now. But hey, I know you love me. It's because no matter how many times you threaten me to tell uncle, you still never say it!" He smiles cheerfully, and it slowly fades.
As I kept crying, he slowly bit his lip as he looked back at me.
"That's why, it doesn't matter if we hate each other all the time. Who knows... maybe you'll act older than me when we grow up," he says as he tries to hold his tears back.
"N-now... stop crying! Y-you're making me cry too!" Taehyung cried but I was still crying, the pain and bruises in my knees and ankles were killing me, and we both cried as we got home.
Let's just say uncle had a hard time tucking both of us to bed.
END OF FLASHBACK
"But... you still love your brother, right?" He cheekily said, and I rolled my eyes.
"I love the dirt more than you, just so you know."
"I'll take that as a yes."
THIRD PERSON POV
"This taste like seaweed wrapped in shrimps and I love it!" Yeonjun said as his cheeks were puffed up, gobbling more of the meal as they ended up in a convenience store.
"I counted the money and they all sum up to 50,000 won. This will be enough if we buy more of these cups," Namjoon said as he kept studying the contents.
"I heard from a few people that they crave this so-called ramyeon. I don't know if this is edible though. I never heard of such inventions from humans," he muttered.
"These long thingies are very yummy. And they taste really nice, we can buy more of these," Seokjin said as he looked down at his cup.
They were now in Seoul. Apparently, Namjoon and Seokjin had a fight about if they should go eat in Seoul or in Busan. Beomgyu had to break the fight between both of them and Yeonjun decided it would be best to eat in Seoul because Busan is just a near distance by one and a half hour. And plus, mermen are fast swimmers.
"I don't get why you can't handle your hunger, it's not like you'll turn into seafoam or something," Namjoon muttered as he picked up a very soft food. It was squishy and it smelled sweet.
"Well, you were so persistent in getting to Seoul. So here we are! I had to agree," Seokjin retorted.
"Well, the chief did say we should stay away from things that are tempting to us," Namjoon replied.
"I guess so, it sucks but being in this huge city is so different. Lots of humans are in here," Seokjin said as he slurped his noodles.
Namjoon sunk his teeth into the soft food. And he chewed it slowly while tasting the sweet dough. He smiled as he kept eating it.
"Humans sure know how to make crabs into nice food," Seokjin said as he looked at his ramyeon cup.
"I don't get what's so great about eating crabs. Crabs are our friends, they are like pets," Namjoon narrows his eyes.
"Even mermaids and mermen classify crabs as food, Joon. You're just a boring person who eats sea grapes and seaweed with a bit of fish," Seokjin rolled his eyes.
"Kelpie! I smell kelpie!"
YOONGI POV
There was blood on the walls.
My eyes widened as Hoseok froze, I slowly approached the wall near the alley that had splatters of blood.
Then, there was a bloody... organ in the corner of the alleyway.
"The blood still looks fresh. And there is no scent coming from there. It means this just happened a few minutes ago," I muttered and Hoseok was literally shaking.
"Y-you should go and collect that evidence over there. It seems to me it's some... kind of disgusting thing," Hoseok muttered.
I sighed before walking towards the bloody organ, then I crouched down as I examined it.
It was a liver of a child.
