THIRD PERSON POV

"I'm sorry."

The bustling and hustling of the wind surrounded the night, the little white dots were decorating the black canvas and the moon was shining on them. The two figures standing by the side.

"What do you mean?" The figure said.

"I said.... I'm sorry...,

I'm sorry, Soobin."

-

"He's dead," Hyunjin deadpanned as he slumped his shoulders, checking the body that was planted in dirt and bruises. There was a trail of blood coming from his mouth, and there was blood coming out from his nose.

The body was laid at the back of the rundown building, hung on a rooftop with dirt on it's body, but with no cuts and only blood.

"This is insane Hyunjin! We don't have the power to stop this! It's not possible for a murderer to get away in this open venue!" Hongjoong gaped as he looked at his co-worker.

"It seems like Choi Soobin has been hanging on this rooftop for 4 days now, and you might wanna cover your nose," Mingyu spoke as he tucked his face mask with him, giving out a few other face masks to Hongjoong and Hyunjin.

"We'll send the body to the autospy department. Meanwhile, I want you to get investigation team leader Lee Taeyong, and inform the research team too, Violent Crimes Unit Team A Leader Hwang Hyunjin, you must take part and inform his family to cooperate," Detective Kim Mingyu said as he looked at Hyunjin and Hongjoong.

"And you, Hongjoong, make a report about this and submit it to the press immediately, people must be informed. We must also contact the Special Forces Department," he continued before turning his heel.

"Mingyu hyung! I have a theory," Hongjoong muttered as he halted the older one in his steps.

"If Soobin's body was left 4 days ago, does that mean that Kim Seokjin was the one also taking part in this? Because he was arrested 5 days ago," Hongjoong spoke as he lowered his head.

"Don't worry Joongie, I'll take care of it, just do your part," Mingyu said as he gave him a small smile.

But inside Mingyu's head, he was already expecting that.

And he was beyond furious. So mad he could just yell at Seokjin for being too heartless.

AEHYE POV

He looked at me, his jaw tightening in the process.

"What... do you mean?" He asked me, his voice cold and serious.

"Nothing, it's just that... you seemed so... happy," I said softly as I turned my head to the other direction, avoiding his dark gaze he was shooting at me.

"Listen, I don't know what shit you're talking about, did Namjoon tell you this?" Taehyung said as he grabbed my clothed hoodie, pulling me towards him.

His face was inches towards mine, and he looked at me with those sharp and dark eyes, his teeth gritted and his brows furrowed.

"W-well, yeah... I mean...," I squeaked as I tried to push myself away from him.

"I get it, you now know that I was a happy kid, I was so happy and contented, but I'm messed up and I'm now broken as fuck, happy to see me say that? Mind your own business, coward," he spat as he let go of me the grip of his hands on my hoodie making my gasp for air.

He distanced himself from me, his foosteps starting to disappear as I exhaled, his back turning away from me.

"What about me?"

He stopped on his tracks his back still facing me as I looked at him, tears starting to form in my eyes.

"What about me Taehyung? Do you know how many fucking times I told myself that you'll become a better person everyday? I told myself that I wouldn't be just a project partner to you, but a friend, I want to help you, even though we're not close, but you keep pushing me away, and you don't consider my feelings at all. In fact, you don't consider anyone's feelings at all, it's always you, you feel fine doing that, but what about the person you're hurting? That even though my days have been bad I'm always pushing myself to wake up everyday, do you think I'm still a coward?" I ranted as I straightened my hoodie, walking after him and past him before giving him a glance, a tear escaping my eye and rolling down my cheek.

"It's you, who keeps running away from your problems, you're the coward here, Taehyung," I say to him before walking past him, and exiting the rooftop.

TAEHYUNG POV

I stare at her figure that was walking down that stairs back to class.

My eyes softened and my chest started clenching hard.

Was I harsh? Am I really a coward?

Sh-should I apologize?

What about all those years and on what I did to people? Did they feel the same way?

I stare at my open hands as I look up at the blue and clear sky, my eyes closing as I let a tear roll down my face, my lips parting as I let the cold wind caress my bare skin.

What about that night? I saw you, you were chasing after that police car with your cousin in it.

I saw everything, and I gave you hug because you needed to come home.

AEHYE POV

BRRIIINNNG!

My mind has been clouding my brain with different thoughts as I stuff my books and my belongings inside, it was already the end of classes, and my teachers suspended the other classes because of Soobin.

There was also free studying time in the library, I haven't seen Taehyung for the whole day.

Maybe he ditched classes.

"Hey Aehye, wanna go review a bit? While you weren't here, Ms. Pyo told us about the exam we're gonna have at Friday, so let's study together?" Jimin asked and I nodded before taking my stuffs with me.

"Hey, are you okay? Your eyes are puffy," Jimin spoke as he poked my cheeks.

"I'm okay, let's go study now, I don't wanna flunk like the last time," I huffed before taking my bag and slinging it over my shoulder, my foosteps following Jimin who was at the exit now.

Was I too harsh on Taehyung?

I should've been more understanding.

THIRD PERSON POV

"Let's go now," the black-cloaked guy said as he gestures Soobin to his crab.

"I can't... I don't want to," Soobin replied as he faced the oddly good-looking Grim Reaper.

"Soobin, we don't have much time," Namjoon replied as he looked at the younger boy with his glowing yellow eyes.

"I don't want to leave so soon, I have a future, I want to study, I want to sing, I wanna meet my friends," Soobin spoke softly and Namjoon's eyes softened.

"Make way! Make way! Corpse coming through!" A loud voice boomed and Namjoon's eyes lightened at the crowd of emergency personnels carrying a stretcher with a corpse that was packed in a black bag.

"Is... that me?" Soobin asked as he looked at the figure that was being placed in an ambulance from the afar.

"Sadly, yes. But you'll be much more happier in-

....Soobin?"
