63

The Park brother's sat in the dark room of the injured youngest as the retelling of the past few days were told. Jimin suffered to push out the words that told his brother of their mother's unforgiving action. He looked from side to side at times to avoid seeing into the eyes that became filled with sadness. The older brother cursed his mother by the end when he witnessed his brother shed tears with a complete and utter look of destruction to him.

"Hyunnie...I'm sorry." Jimin apologized as he rubbed his brother's hand in hopes that even if it didn't make him feel better, it would be a reminder that he was still there for him.

Jihyun shook his head, which he pressed against the light blue wall. "Why do you always do that?"

"Do what?"

"You apologize for things that aren't your fault. Always, Hyung. It needs to stop. You didn't leave to me to fend for myself, or find my way around things. Hyung you were there when they weren't so why are you apologizing? It's not your fault so stop. Why don't instead you tell me what you have planned, let's start there."

As touched as he felt with the reaction of his brother, Jimin could not ignore the fact that he was still hurting. Jihyun had been left with abandonment issues, and this new discovery for sure made that worse. All their mother had done now was prove the younger right all along. Jihyun had a feeling in his gut that told him that his parents had by their own free will. He had said it and continued to believe his theory despite what Jimin would tell him. The youngest claimed to have thrown that idea out the window, but judging by his calm reaction to the recent events, his mind was never changed.

"You never believed me, did you?"

"Honestly, no. I'm also not surprised that our father's been runing this whole thing." Jihyun sighed. "Jungkook and I suspected it a long time ago, that there was someone sitting in a throne. It made no sense to us. We all work in groups, we know how there's difference and it becomes hard to work peacefully if someone doesn't lead."

Jimin agreed with Jihyun. There was no way a team could work so well for so long without a leader. They all did it within their own gangs so it made sense that the superiors did it as well.

"Did you ever think it was our-"

"No." Jihyun shook his head before looking at his sibling. "Not until you let it slip by you earlier...You seriously need to be more careful. Information travels fast around here."

With all the chaos, neither one was surprise. People were scared meaning information that should stay within gangs was probably slipping through. Perhaps alliances were forming, runaway plans, and a few other things no one was aware of now.

"What now?"

Jimin shrugged. "Yoongi almost shot one of you."

Jihyun chuckled. "I don't think that's the best way to go about things."

The two stayed smiling until slowly their grins fell to straight lips and empty thoughts. They just sat on the bed staring out to the houses around them and watching those outside. People were still talking, some smoking, and some drinking. Even though they looked small from above and their faces were unclear, one could tell they were frightened. Worry coursed many as they paced around with hopeless aim. One could just feel it in the air.

"Hyun?"

The light to the room came on as the male who opened the door, Jihyun's roommate, poked his head in.

"Hey Luca... Jimin this is Lucas, my roommate." Jihyun pointed to the boy. "Luca, this is my brother Jimin...And uh...I'm sure you've met Yoongi by now."

The eldest among them stood behind Lucas. The two entered the room to crowd around the two brother's sitting at the edge of the bed.

"So is Jungkook also coming or...?" Lucas asked. Jimin looked to his brother who appeared hopeful before turning his gaze out the window to show less interest. He shook his head.

Lucas's eyebrows furrowed. "No? That coward! Jihyun was shot...why wouldn't he-"

"He doesn't need to be here, Luca. Calm down."

Despite being brought down from the uproar, Lucas still looked disturbed by the fact that Jungkook hadn't shown. He glanced at Jimin in hopes to receive more of an explanation from him, but he never got it. Instead he excused himself for someone was at the door.

"Sorry about him..."Jihyun sighed. "I guess he never got the memo."

"You two live together and you're with someone else. There is no fucking memo." Yoongi said. "What's going on? Why's he asking for Jungkook?"

"How the hell do you know I'm with someone else?"

Tension rose in the room as Jihyun sat up straighter and Yoongi's eyes narrowed even more. Jimin quickly stood between the two as to break the dangerous vibe emitting from them both.

"Cool it, now's not the time. Why do care if he knows, anyway." Jimin said which immediately made for his brother to shrink back. In that moment he knew something was missing from the story he was told. It was possible Jungkook had still coming around despite having claimed to cut ties with Jihyun. If not then why would his roommate be asking for the other's presence's. There was clearly a missing peice to the story.

"Jihyun...why would Lucas think Jungkook should be coming to see you...You broke things off with him, right? A long time ago, right? You're with someone else, aren't you?"

Obvious guilt broke out on Jihyun's face as he became stared down not just by Yoongi, but by his brother as well. The boy had just been caught red handed in something the two were not leaving to the imagination. They did not have to say it for the youngest to understand that they were not going anywhere without a proper explanation.

Jimin was confused, but Yoongi looked angered. It was like he knew what the situation was yet he wanted to hear it come from Jihyun's mouth.

"Is this really our main concern right now?" Jihyun asked. "I mean-"

"It is." Yoongi interrupted. "The last contact you two were suppose to have was when he was helping you come to our side. Why the hell is that boy thinking that Jungkook should be coming to see you?"

Jihyun looked to Jimin with a begging stare that was barely acknowledged.

"Answer him."

The youngest realized he was cornered and there was nothing getting him out yet he resisted. He shrugged his shoulders and pretended to not understand. Jihyun said thing had been done as Yoongi had said, he last had contact with Jungkook for transportation reasons. Of course, no one in that room was dumb except him for thinking such a failed excuse could do him some justice.

"You son of a bitch, you're the reason he left!" Yoongi threw his cap to the floor in distressed.

The sound of the cap slapping the floor seemed to make things click in Jimin's head. He looked at his brother with disbelief as he came to a horrid realization.

"Jihyun...how long did you lie to him?"

"I don't know what you're talking about-"

"Yes, you do!" Jimin exclaimed. "He said you cheated then told him about someone else... I don't believe you two got together just once! How long did you lie to him!?"

Jihyun stood up. "I didn't lie to him! He knew! He knew the entire time and he stayed! There's as much blame to be put on him as there is on me! I shouldn't even be discussing this with either of you, no matter how close you may be to him! Our damn father is looking to end one of us and we're sitting around talking about my love life! Do you understand how ridiculous that is!?"

Silence fell in the room as the the three stared at each other.

"You know what's also ridiculous, Jihyun?"

"What, Yoongi?"

"That he's gone."

Jihyun's face changed immediately as he became concern with the claim. "Wha-What do you mean-"

"I mean that he couldn't take it anymore and left. We barely know where he is now, we haven't talked to him since he left, and oh yeah, we don't know if he's coming back!"

Without a second thought, Jimin turned to push Yoongi back from his brother. He put his hands to Yoongi's shoulder as he attempted to calm him from his sudden outburst. As much as he felt that Jihyun was at some fault as well, he knew this was no way to treat the situation. They were not on their side. If at any moment Jihyun changed his attitude, they could be ended right then and there.

"Hyung... where is he? Where's my bunny?"

At last it settled into Jihyun what was happening he fell back on the bed with a difficulty to breathe and possibly a pain to his chest for he put his hand over his heart. Jimin rushed over to calm him while Jihyun brought his phone to his ear and waited as the ringing filled the room.

"Don't bother." Yoongi said. "Like I said, he barely talks to us so unless you're Jin asking for his well being he isn't going to pick up. Let's get down to business instead. I talked to Namjoon and he wants all of us to meet."

"All of us?"

"He wants leaders first." Yoongi explained. "Just get the word to yours so that they can take care of what we can't first. Another thing, Joon says to stay away from Junghong. Don't pick up calls, don't answer texts, and if he approaches you, you turn the other way. The same goes for your mother. We don't know if she's really trying to help us, it could be a set up so maintain distance for now. Also try to keep yourself surrounded by others and always keep a weapon on you at all times."

Jimin reached for his, but his brother stopped him. He claimed to have his own protection meaning there was no need to leave Jimin without his. They ended things there seeing the night wasn't getting any younger and more people were arriving to their apartment complex, people who weren't going to want Jimin and Yoongi there. Jihyun and Lucas offered to escort them to their car which usually they'd say no, but given the circumstances they feared that if they didn't agree they might be surround like before.

"Text me when you back." Jihyun said to his brother as he gave him a hug with the only arm he could move. "And also if uh..."

"If he comes back? I will."

Jimin smiled at his brother in hopes to reassure him that things would turn out fine yet he didn't believe so himself. In fact, he wondered just how badly things might go judging by Yoongi's expression on the way home.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Jungkook."

"I'm sure he's fine. You said you sent him somewhere safe, your sister's condo."

"Yeah..." Yoongi muttered. "But what if he never made it?"
