Byeol.

That was the name that lurked him into the abyss of fear and encompassed him in its deathly simulation.

He often heard her name in his dreams.

It was soft and melodic, a melancholy voice that could lull him to sleep in his dreams even under the thunderstorms.

But, she remained as an enigma to his mind; a deceitful enigma he wished to decipher.

This was not a game he had picked, nor the present he had anticipated. He could not face the past, nor the present, for it was moving out of his hand.

The destruction he bought was beautiful, but the darkness was not. Tears were falling uncontrollably from his eyes and no one could see it, for his eyes never told anything.

"No, this can't be happening. This absolutely cannot be happening," Jimin muttered under his breath, pulling tufts of hair.

"What's wrong, Jimin?" Taehyung asked, as Jungkook ruffled his hair under the dry towel.

"You remember those nightmares I told you?" Jimin whispered, as Jungkook got closer.

"What about them? You told me something about some bugs or jugs I guess..." Taehyung fumbled upon his words.

"Not bugs, Tae. It's byeol," Jimin leaned towards Taehyung.

"Byeol? What about that name? You just told me that it was giving you nightmares and stuff,"Taehyung put a hand around Jimin's shoulder.

"Look at Jungkook's body," Jimin said, breathing heavily. His mouth was trembling in fear while his fingers subtly pointed in the direction where Jungkook was standing.

"Come on, Chim. I know he's hot, but it's shameful to eye rape him. I'm a man of decency," Taehyung sent Jimin a look of disapproval.

"Tae-"

"Stop eye raping him,"he cut him off.

"Just listen to me for once," Jimin sighed deeply.

"Alright, I'm sorry," Taehyung chuckled.

"Look at his chest,"Jimin said, still eyeing Jungkook who was in oblivion to all this.

"Damn, the muscles, they are hot," Taehyung whispered, smirking lightly.

"Look at the tattoo." Jimin said, ignoring Taehyung's words.

Taehyung squinted his eyes to take a better look at the tattoo, and at once retreated in apprehension, his eyes widening at once.

The humour was all gone, and Taehyung's eyes darkened.

"What's that tattoo on your chest?" Taehyung rasped out, his voice dangerously low.

Jungkook lifted up his head and at once, a red tint travelled up his cheeks and he brought his hands up to cover his chest.

"That's not important to you," Jungkook muttered incoherently.

"It is vital to me," he replied, going closer to him.

"Get back, Tae. You're frightening him," Jimin defended Jungkook, as he trembled under Taehyung's non faltering demeanor.

"How is it vital to you? You don't even know me? What's the relation between you and the name?" Jungkook blurted out questions continuously.

"Don't fight me, Jungkook. Just come closer," Taehyung gestured the younger to come forward.

But, Jungkook did the opposite.

And hell broke out loose.

Within a second, Taehyung pounced on Jungkook while snarling and while doing so, both of their bodies clashed with one another. The either of them lost balance at the sudden momentum, and Jimin came to rescue.

He entered the scenario with a glare on his face and began to wrestle with Jungkook, trying to separate the duo while they were stuck like glue.

All this happened when Jungkook was half naked.

Jimin held the edge of the towel that hung from Jungkook's body, as he began to loose balance. But, thankfully, Jungkook brought back the towel in place, widening his eyes.

After a world war three with Jimin's anger, Taehyung's resentment and Jungkook's fear, everyone were finally separated. Bodies were dripping with sweat, and the room was saturated with awkwardness.

They all laid on the floor, panting heavily.

-

"I'm sorry, Jungkook." Taehyung mumbled.

"I'm sorry too, hyung," Jungkook apologized for no reason.

"I was the one who was stuck between you two! Shouldn't you guys apologize to me first?" Jimin knitted his brows in accusation.

"I'm sorry not sorry," Taehyung's boxy smile resurfaced.

Jungkook stifled his laughter, biting the inner cheek and he slowly ran his hands through the neatly set hair after the shower.

"Tae," Jimin whined.

"Ok, I'm sorry." Taehyung pursed his lips, smiling lightly.

Jimin glared at Taehyung, his lips in a thin line.

"I'm tired of you guys. It's not even been one day yet," Jimin said, still glaring at his roommate.

"You won't get tired soon. I'm sure Jungkook will keep you awake," Taehyung winked.

"Goodness, Tae. That's it. I'm going to sleep," Jimin pushed his table away in frustration and got up, dashing to his room.

Jungkook looked at the older leaving, and shrugged his shoulders slightly. He took out the files from the drawer at the end of the table and began to scan them, wearing round glasses.

He looked at the impression of the hands that were engraved on the dead bodies.

Taking magnifying lenses from his personal backpack, he looked at the pictures of the bodies.

They were placed in a particular angle, wherein the legs were spread out in some pictures. All the five bodies were placed differently, but they signified something. It was as if the killer was trying to communicate through the bodies.

The first body's hands were bent along with the legs, so as to meet the stomach. The leg was broken and it was bent in such a way that it coincided with the hand.

The second body's hands were spread out while the legs were glued together. None of the parts were broken, but here instead, they were glued.

He could not make out the pattern of the other three bodies as his mind drifted away to the world of sleep. All he yearned was for a deep slumber after the day's happenings. His eyes were slowly drooping, and he yawned slightly.

Placing the files on the counter, he closed his eyes and waited for sleep to take over him. It had been quite an excruciating day and he could not help but relax at least for a little while.

As he dozed off, Taehyung grabbed the files along with the magnifying glass. He smirked lightly, and began to look through it.

But the two letters that came out of his mouth could not be ignored.

B and Y.
