“Jiminie might be already waiting. Come on.” Bora guide them through the hallways, towards a room.
Seokjin had never seen this room before. Maybe he didn’t notice. But again, he is just confused why they are going there.
This afternoon, Bora popped out of nowhere, and gave them some cloths and teach them how to wear them. And now, here she is guiding them towards a room, inside the house.
Did she get them ready, only to go to another room? Seokjin wondered. For him and his lovers, it was ridiculous.
But, as soon as Bora opened the door, their eyes widened.
The room was fully decorated with variety of flowers and balloons. There were candles lit up with golden glow and fairy lights Illuminating in the room. The scene was magical. Seokjin never witnessed something like that in his whole life. It was so pretty, beyond he can explain.
And, from the reaction of his lovers, they were also thinking the same.
But contrast to their reaction, a frown appeared on Bora’s face. She looked around the room, and looked back at the rectangular thing in her hand, which Seokjin now know as phone. She placed it on her ears, and waited couple of seconds.
The frown on her eyebrows deepened, when she looked back at them. “Jiminie is supposed to be here. But now he is not and he not picking up the call either.”
“Is he okay?” Hoseok asked with wide eyes.
“Where did he gone to? And what is going on?” Namjoon asked.
“I can’t explain everything now, but I think something is wrong. He will never leave without informing, especially when he is having this threats. Let’s find Jimin first.” Saying Bora walked out of the room. “Wonhee is also not here.” She mumbled.
Wonhee went to his own home and it will take a lot of time for him to get back.
They went straight to the guards, who were outside.
The sky has already darkened, and Seokjin felt uneasiness spreading inside his heart. He just hopes Jimin is safe.
“Where did Jimin gone to?” Bora asked, one of the men in the black suit.
“Sir went out, and told us to not accompany him.” The man said. “But, two of us are secretly following him, according to Wonhee Sir’s order.”
“Wonhee is really a life saviour.” Bora mumbled. “Track Jimin’s location, and find where he is. I am going there straight away.” With that Bora walked away.
The six of them ran after her.
“Take us with you.” Taehyung almost begged. “We want to make sure if he is okay.”
The five of then nodded along, agreeing to younger’s request. They really wanted to know how Jimin is.
Bora looked at all of them. Then after contemplating for a moment, he nodded. “Let’s go then, we don’t have much time to waste. I should call police as well.” She mumbled.
She asked the men in black to start the ‘modern carriage’ and other guards to follow them. The thing was so huge and a lot of people could fit in.
Seokjin remember, first time they entered in that thing. They thought it’s a beast and the sound coming from it was the animal’s cry. They didn’t want to enter that thing. But after explained how it works, they sat in it. All of them liked it, except Seokjin. Cause he was feeling uneasiness in it. He thought he will throw up. He just didn’t like that thing. And he had promised that he will never sit in it again.
Still, here he is. But for their seventh lover, he can ignore that sickness. Jimin is their first priority after all.
“Why is he at that abandoned building?” Seokjin heard Bora mumbling and that’s all took for his heart to drop.
He prayed to god that his lover is safe.
Lina, Han Lina. The woman stood in front of Jimin, a wicked smile appearing on her lips.
In between the concrete walls, she was glowing in her crimson frilled dress. The color reflected in her eyes making it glowing like a monster.
“I thought you wouldn’t come.” She commented, sitting on a concrete bench. The smile never left her lips.
Jimin fisted his hand tightly. His blood boiled at the sight of her. “What evidence were you talking about?” He asked.
“Of course. You are here for the evidence.” Lina clicked her tongue. “You love them that much?”
Jimin paused for a second. Of course he loves them. If a month ago someone told him, he will be risking his own life for the sake of those six in the mirror, he would have never believe it. But now, here he is, leaving all his safety just to protect them. Just to have them safe.
Yes, he want them safe. For that he have to destroy those evidence Lina has.
“JUST TELL ME WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE?” He growled, impatient to leave this suffocating place as soon as possible.
“You think, it’s that easy?” The sound of Lina’s laugh echoed in the silent building. It send chills down Jimin’s spine. “I am sorry to say this, but I don’t have any evidence that I could give you. Except I saw it all. I can expose your boyfriends easily, you know?” She smirked.
“Then why do you call me? What do you want?” Jimin hold back the urge to punch that smirk off of her face.
“Aw, my innocent mochi.” Her voice turned in to childish as if she is talking to a baby. Jimin felt like gagging. “Let’s have a talk first, can we? Do you want to sit? Wanna drink something?”
Jimin took a deep breath. His patience was thinning. “Please come to the point, Lina.” He gritted out.
Just as he said it, he was surrounded by some men in black. They were masculine, two size big as Jimin. And… He has an idea what is going on. And he was not ready for this.
“Of course, of course.” The smirk wasn’t there when Lina said that. Her face darkened, anger visible. “The point is… It’s your time to suffer, for everything you did.”
It’s your time to suffer. The words echoed in Jimin’s ears.
It’s his time to suffer? As if he wasn’t suffering his whole life and past life as well. Whatever he know about his past life is tragic. And whatever he suffer through this life, he hasn’t live a peaceful day. His mind has always been a mess and he was suffering.
“For what?” Jimin asked finally.
Why is he suffering, always? Why is he the one who should suffer in every life? Is he that bad of a person? Is this what he deserves?
“You don’t know?” Lina’s eyes were spitting fire. “My life was a hell, because of you. You are the reason Yejun oppa never looked at me. You are the reason he is not here anymore. I was even abandoned in the past because of you. And now you acting like an innocent?”
Jimin frowned. “How is that even my fault? I never wanted to hurt anyone. Not intentionally at least. It’s all his fault, and he got what he deserves.”
“No. If you weren’t born, this wouldn’t have happened. Ever since you appeared in my life, I have been struggling. The whole industry loves you. I was the most famous soloist of time. But you got that title in just few years. And my fame, my love, my life everything ruined. All because of you. I WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN.” She screamed the last part.
Tears welled up in Jimin’s eyes. His inner voices always asked him this. He wished he weren’t born in this world. He wished he was dead, instead of burdening others.
Jimin was so lost in thought, he didn’t realize when Lina pulled out a gun.
But when he saw it his eyes widened in fear. His hands trembled and breath came out as ragged.
Yes, he wanted to die. But that was in the past.
Today he have found a reason to live, a reason to fall in love, a reason to be happy. And now he is not ready, he is not ready to leave the loves of his life.
“JUST DIE…” Lina screamed.
Jimin saw her pressing in the trigger and closed his eyes tightly. His whole body was shivering with fear. Sweat rolled down his forehead. His clenched fist pressed against ears.
“BANG…”
The sound was loud, echoing in the silent building.
Then it was deafening silent.
Jimin could hear his heart beating fast inside his ribcage, and his ragging breath along with a some other sounds which he couldn’t decipher.
But the pain he expected didn’t come. He wasn’t hurt, maybe he didn’t feel the pain.
Jimin slowly opened his teary eyes.
The sight in front of him was relieving. The woman who was about to shoot him was on the floor from getting shot.
So, of course it should be relieving.
Yet, what he felt was disgust and uncomfortable.
No, it’s not pity for the woman who tried to threaten him with his lover’s safety. It wasn’t kindness either for a woman who hurted him, not only in the present but also in the past life as well.
It was disgust, at the sight of blood. Maybe the fear of red liquid oozing out of her wound. It was that uncomfortable churn inside his stomach that made him want vomit right there.
But he couldn’t. His body was paralysed. As if someone bind him with rope tightly. He couldn’t even move from the floor, which he don’t know when he even sat on.
After that day with priest and Yejun in the forest, he never wanted to see that crimson liquid again. He hated, scared and disgusted by the sight of it.
With his half open eyes Jimin saw people in uniform flashing here and there. And he heard few word like, no breath and blood.
Even with all, he just couldn’t decipher what is happening. Are they talking about Lina? Is she dead? Is she…
An arm wrapping around him, pulled Jimin out of his thoughts. The person was tugging him in to their chest, in a protective manner. Jimin couldn’t see them. But the familiar scent made him lean on to the man, as if his life depend on it, and maybe it did.
And then he felt another arms around him, all familiar scent wrapping around him like protective cocoon.
Jimin felt safe. Even with his hazy mind, he could recognize these six people, without looking at them. He love them so much after all.
Jimin felt exhausted, so he closed his eyes slowly.
As soon as he did that, images of six people in traditional hanbok flashed in front of his eyes.
They were standing in the garden, watching him, more like admiring him.
“You… New… Dancer….”
He heard incoherent words. But the voice was familiar, so does the events, and it felt home.
A smile appeared on Jimin’s face, still laying on one of his lovers chest. Seeing them in front of him and feeling them so close, he ignored the unbearable pain inside his head. Everything is fine, as long as his lovers are safe and happy.
A hand picking hin up was the last thing he felt when he fell in to deep slumber.
