Chapter 3
Oumi rushed to the department, where her probation prisoner was taken. Her steps halted instantly when she found her standing by the desk of the officers who were trying to solve the situation after these crazy people with inflatables had created a scene in broad daylight, and the police had been called.
"Miss Lee, just what did you do? You are supposed to behave. There's barely been hours since you left prison. Do you want me to send you right back in!" She yelled at Luette as Yoongi told her to be strict when the phone call came in that the prisoner she was in charge of was at the station again.
"Yes, get her back in. She shouldn't have been out at all!" Sania's voice beamed right after, from the chair she was seated in, with two police officers by her head because she kept trying to attack them, and they had forcefully held her back even while in the police station.
"Don't listen to her. We didn't do anything. My sister was attacking us!" Jungkook stood from his seat, glaring at his sister, annoyed because she had torn his inflatable costume in the process, and now his costume looked sad and pathetic.
Most of them were in the same state, as their costumes had burst, and the sound of them exploding was actually what had made passersby call the police on them. The only thing that was left untouched was Jin's inflatable boobs that he had held on for dear life, especially after someone stepped on his tail and popped it.
"It's really not that serious a situation, officer. We were just having a party for the release of this late shark here. And we drank a bit, yes, but we weren't driving, so no crime was committed. Why are we all even being held here?" Jin reasoned as he looked exhausted by all this, and now that the alcohol was leaving his body, he had started to have a headache.
"Everyone shut up! What do you think this is? Your playground! Remove these ridiculous costumes you all still have on and sit down to solve this!" The police officer who was behind his desk snapped at them, gesturing for the other police men to get the costumes, then he turned to look at Oumi.
"Officer Oumi, get your offender and go to your office. They are under your jurisdiction." The officer ordered Oumi, and she quickly grabbed the arm of Luette, escorting her outside, while Jimin's gaze followed her, and she was just smiling back at him reassuringly.
Sania noticed the way his gaze followed her, and her nerves got even worse, gritting her teeth as she pursed her lips and held tight to the fabric of her bag.
"Officer. Sania is not at fault. She just got caught up in the moment. Can't you just forgive her this time? None of us will press charges." Jimin tried to reason with the officer in a calm tone, not intending to agitate him further, as he knew well that his girlfriend was the aggressor in this case.
"Yes, officer. Let us go, please. My friend is not at fault." Shanzay looked over at her with soft eyes, while Sania softly looked her way but didn't even bother to look at Jimin, still visibly furious with him, as every time their gazes met, Sania would glare at him like she wanted to kill him.
"Well, even if anyone wanted to press charges, we are from the Kim family. We all know how that goes." Jungkook stated matter-of-factly as he made eye contact with the police officer, making it clear that he knew that nothing was going to happen to them.
"Do you want me to lock you up till your lawyer arrives?!" The officer warned them, offended by the implication Jungkook left, that just because they were rich and powerful, they could do whatever they wanted and the law would bend for them.
"Oh please no, these boobs have gone through enough today." Jin casually spoke, making some officers momentarily crack up, but as their superior officer didn't, they covered their giggles with coughing, leaving Jin feeling satisfied with himself.
Until the officer grabbed the scissors at the side of his desk and stabbed his inflatable boobs, creating a huge noise that made everyone flinch but also made them all very quiet.
"Great, now, let's start with the protocol procedure."
---Time skip---
"I can't believe this. I have to be gathering you two now from the police stations. Have you lost your minds?!" Namjoon was scolding his two siblings near the car he and his lawyer had come over with, his lawyer still being busy solving some more paperwork, while they had been left free to go.
"For once, I wasn't the one creating the trouble. She went all crazy, trying to attack an innocent person." Jungkook looked at Sania, annoyed. Because of her, he had to stay all these hours in the police station.
"Innocent my ass! She is a criminal, you idiot!" Sania snapped at him and hit him on the back of the head.
"I will go back in and actually press charges against you for violence, I swear." Jungkook raised his index finger, warning her, right before Namjoon placed his palms on their heads and made them both look at him again.
"Focus!" Namjoon yelled at them as he pulled his hands back and continued. "Do you want the media to take notice of this and for our family to be ridiculed all over? Go fight at home if you must; now get in that car, and you better reach home in absolute silence. You hear me!" He ordered them, and the driver behind him hurried to open the door for them.
Jungkook went first, and Namjoon just stood there before his sister while she looked down, looking apologetic. The sight made him let out a breath of regret for losing his temper, so he reached out and grabbed her shoulders, making her face him.
"Sania, I know this was difficult for you. I understand how you feel, but please...please promise me you will deal with this in a better way." Sania avoided her eyes as she didn't want to promise him anything for even if she did, she couldn't trust her own self over it. There was a lot of grief and anger still accumulated in her, and even though she was disappointed with the way she had lost self-control, she couldn't think about much at that moment.
"I will try." Sania managed to get only those words out, and even though they weren't much, Namjoon considered them enough for the moment. So he retrieved his hands and made way for her to get to the car.
"Wait. Can I get Shanzay too? I don't want her getting back alone." Namjoon nodded at her request, and she instantly walked away, heading towards where Shanzay, Jin, and Jimin were.
"Come on, Shanzay, let's go home." Sania reached her hand out towards her friend as she ignored the presence of the other two altogether, but Jimin acted faster, took her hand, and pulled her closer.
"Baby, please, don't be mad at me. I had told you that I would go get her and-" Jimin halted his words as she abruptly pulled her hand away from his hold.
"Don't touch me!" Sania uttered with disdain in her voice and a sharp gaze that hurt Jimin's feelings.
"Sania, please-"
"No! If you are gonna be friends with her again. I will break up with you. I warned you." She deadpanned right before she grabbed Shanzay's hand, who looked back at Jimin, feeling pity for him.
"Baby, baby, please, I won't be friends with her again. It was just for today. Because she has no one, and you know it. I owed it to her as her old best friend; she has helped me so many times. Please try to understand." Jimin stepped in her way once more, his hands desperately holding on to her arms as he pleaded with her with his gaze.
"I was trying to keep her away so you wouldn't have to meet her and ruin your mood. No one matters to me more than you, please." He went on, and Shanzay decided to step away, saying that she would be waiting for her at the car, as she noticed that she wavered. And Jin pretended he got a phone call just to step some steps away and give them privacy.
"Sania-"
" I hate her." She cut him off. " I hate her, and that will never change, so you better clarify once and for all which side you are on."
"Yours, I choose you." Jimin didn't even hesitate to reply, a thing that gave Sania a sense of reassurance and satisfaction.
"Then the only reason you should have to hand around her should be to find ways to make her pay for what she did. Not make her feel happy!"
"I will do that, baby. I am just trying to make her trust me again so she can open up to me." Jimin uttered thoughts he had certainly thought of before, for he knew well that was one of the only ways to secure a way in the heart of the woman he loved.
The woman whom he was in a relationship with and who he could call his girlfriend, but all these years he was more than aware that he still did not have her heart.
The only reason Sania had agreed to go out with someone like him, after all, was Luette. Because Sania hated her, and for some reason she thought that Jimin was more than a best friend to her, so, like Luette had taken someone Sania loved from her, she had decided to take Jimin from Luette. Not knowing that Jimin had been in love with her for years. And that was why even though he knew that Sania was using him, he couldn't tell her the truth, nor end their relationship a choose to respect himself.
He had lied to her, making her believe that Luette was someone important to him, more than just in a friendly way, cause he knew that would motivate her to hold onto him more. And Sania thinking that she made Jimin betray her because of her would be the ultimate satisfaction of her ego.
Hence, Jimin knew that no matter how many times she threatened to break up with him, she would never actually go through with it. Just like no matter how badly she treated him, he would never get away from her either.
"I am yours. You have nothing to worry about." He uttered the truth from the bottom of his heart, even though he was well aware that the way he was portraying himself at that moment seemed like a player who was trying to deceive her. But that too was to his advantage, for if he ever was to fully convince her that he truly was in love with her, hopelessly at that, it would be the moment that he would really lose her forever.
"You better be," Sania replied as she took hold of the hem of his shirt with her right hand and pulled him in, at a breath's distance. "Because if you dare to play me...I will make you regret it." She whispered, her breath fanning against his lips, eye contact firm and steady, until she pushed him right back and walked away, and Jimin was left looking at her, with his own heartbeat echoing in his ears and a feeling of excitement criplying his chest.
