24 Chapter 21

It was finally lunch time and Hoseok went to Yunki's class to go to the cafeteria together. As they were walking together Yunki's eyes fall on a familiar boy. "Hey!" He shouted startling Hoseok who was telling him about the new car he has been thinking of buying. Yunki saw the guy turned around and as their eyes met the other started running away in fear. "Yah! Wait you bastard!" Yunki shouted again. "I will join you guys later before that I have to handle some business" with that he ran away after that guy. "Wha... who is he? Wait hyung!" Hoseok shouted but Yunki is long gone making him sigh. "This hyung. Seriously" He shakes his head in disapproval and made his way to the cafeteria alone.

Yunki is still running after that guy and is surprised with the boy's fast speed. The boy is the same boy who had been stalking him before. Students around started watching them curiously before resuming their previous activity. "Yah! Stop right there!" Yunki shouted which only made the guy running ahead to run even faster making Yunki groan. He hates wasting his energy like this and this guy is making him run like crazy for which he is surely going to pay. "Yah! We've got some talking to do! Just stop there if you don't want to get your condition worsen" This made the guy halt his steps and he eventually stopped running but didn't dare to look at Yunki who is walking to him while glaring. As the blonde got closer he pushed the boy against the wall rather harshly making him wince in pain while giving a hard glare to the guy. "How dare you even think about hurting MY Taehyung." Yunki growled making the other guy shiver in fear. "You fucking tried to poison him!?" The dark eyes of Yunki are almost boring holes in the shuddering guy. Low whimpers are audibly escaping his lips. "I..... No" He can't speak. The sight of the blonde male with his dark eyes glaring at him and ready to kill him at any second is making him pale in terror. Yunki lifted his right hand and wrapped it around the terrified boy's neck and squeezed lightly making the other male's eyes gone wide. He put a little more pressure and lifted the boy up easily in the air. The pressure on his neck made the guy's eyes teary and he coughed and tried to breathe while trying to loosen the grip on his neck. "You now listen to me carefully." Yunki growled in his ear. "Stay away from him. Enough that he can't see you and if I fucking find you near him....." Yunki applied more pressure making the other cough even harder "....then you won't want to face the consequences." with that he dropped the boy who landed on the floor on his butt and whimpered in pain. Without caring and giving another glance Yunki walked away leaving the crying male on the floor by himself.

Yunki walks to the cafeteria where his eyes fall on a particular boy who is laughing along with Hoseok and did he ever tell you that that cute boxy smile is his favorite? When his eyes almost disappear cutely and his lips form a beautiful rectangular shape which really suits the male Yunki is staring at now. Feeling a pair of eyes on him made Taehyung look in that direction when his eyes met another pair. His smile immediately falters almost making the older pout. They both looks into each other's eyes deeply without giving any expression though their eyes are telling many things. Their staring contact soon broke when Hoseok called the older. "Suga hyung? Finally you are here" Yunki looked at Hoseok before walking to the table and sat beside him. "Who was that guy by the way. Seems like he has really pissed you off by the way you were almost ready to strangle him." Hoseok said curiously. This gained someone's attention too who started looking at Yunki curiously. "Boy?" Taehyung asked confused. Yunki looks at him back without saying a word. "No one." The older spoke and started eating his food making the younger frown. He huffed and pouted and started eating his food. Hoseok cleared his throat to lighten the awkward atmosphere when his eyes lend on a particular boy who is lost in his own thoughts during the whole time. "Gguk? Aren't you going to eat anything?" He asked. "I am not hungry" The younger replied and left from there before anyone could stop him. "What's with him?" Hoseok asked confused. "Jimin is absent." replied Taehyung still avoiding looking at someone particular.

Sweating and panting he jolted up. The same nightmare as the last night. But why? Why now when he was started getting numb to his past? He thought he was finally over those dark memories but no they are back to haunt him in his sleep. To kill him slowly and painfully. He got up from the bed and walks into the bathroom. Making his way to the basin he opened the tap and filled water in his palms before splashing it on his face. He brushed his hairs back before splashing some more water on his face and finally looking into the mirror ahead. He sighs and took a towel from the cabinets beside the mirror and dries his face. As he removed the white soft towel from his face he gasped at the sight he saw in the mirror. There is his reflection but not exactly his reflection. The Yunki he is seeing in the mirror is smirking at him maniacally. "Well hello there, Min Yunki." The towel he was holding before fall down as his grip loosen and he slowly and scared started taking steps backward. "You cannot run from me because I am inside you." Wh-Who are you?" "Me? I am.... You" the smirk that reflection was giving grew even more making a shiver ran down Yunki's body. "N-No... No you are lying." He trembled with fear when his back touched the wall behind. "Did you miss me? The real you? We used to have lots of fun. Remember that terror in those people's eyes whom you had hurt? Their screams when you took their last breath away? It was so fun no?" Tears started gliding down the boy's cheeks due to all those memories coming back which he locked somewhere in the corner of his mind. "And when you....." "SHUT UP!! SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" Yunki started screaming non stop covering his ears with both of his palms scared to hear even a single word from his own reflection. As he calmed down the reflection spoke again. "But aren't you going to do all of that again? You accepted your father's request thinking that you are doing all that for that boy but deep down you missed your true self." "NO!! I don't and I will never miss that shitty life ever and this is the real me not that monster. DO YOU GET THAT? THIS IS WHO MIN YUNKI IS AND NOT YOU." He keeps screaming but the reflection only smirked at him. Soon the reflection of him disappeared and replaced with a scene of him holding a gun in his hand and a corpse is lying on the floor while bleeding from it's chest. He screamed as the painful memory of that night returned and soon his eyes opened and he found himself on his bed panting and sweating. So that was a dream. He sighed and rubbed his face with both of his palms. He unlocked his phone and sees it's 5:23 in the morning. Sighing he started thinking about his dream. It was.... terrifying. Seeing that image of him like that with a gun and a dead body it is feeling like he has just witnessed the memory again in front of his eyes. The image opened up many previous slightly healed wounds which had been making it painful for him to live. He lifted his hand where a very light scar from the last cut he did is present. No emotion no guilt can be seen in his eyes from hurting his own self. He thinks he deserves what he is going through. He wonders what would have happened if he had cut his wrist properly? He wouldn't have to feel everything he is feeling at the moment as he would be free from this hell called life. But then Taehyung's word rang in his ears. Asking him to not hurt himself because it hurt the younger too. Yunki started wondering is it possible for someone to love a monster like him like the younger does? Why does he love him when all he gave that boy is nothing but pain? Why does he still with him when every time Yunki has just pushed him away. Yunki is not the right person to love. He doesn't deserve to be loved by someone like Taehyung. That boy is completely opposite to him. If he is a monster then that boy is an angel. If he is darkness then that boy is a bright beautiful light. His life is filled with pain and pain only but he knows Taehyung has many beautiful smiles waiting for him in the future. He is happy that he didn't ruin that boy's happiness by being with him and trapping him in his prison like life. The first right decision he took in his life.

"Namjoon it's been days since you last went to uni. Don't you care about your future?" Jin asks. He is sitting on the couch with Namjoon laying on it with his head in the older's lap "But I care about you more" The younger whined making his boyfriend roll his eyes. "Doesn't mean you should avoid your career. " "I am just taking care of you." The younger mumbled pouting making the older scoff. "You better go today or else no kisses for a week" Jin folded his arms over his chest and looked at the younger sternly making the other gasp and sit up straight to look at him "You are so mean!! How can you do that to me!?" He clutched his chest like he is hurting badly but Jin looked at him unamused. "You are not going that means no ki." "Don't you dare finish that sentence!!" Namjoon pointed his finger at the older with wide eyes. Jin opens his mouth like he is about to speak something but he is just teasing the other which made the latter widen his eyes even more and he quickly ran away into his room to get ready making Jin chuckle in amusement.

Jeongguk is sitting in his class with very few students. Last night he didn't sleep as he was busy thinking about Jimin which now he thinks was the worst idea as now he is feeling really sleepy but what can he do now? He has to take all of his classes but he really is not feeling like doing so. Only if he could go back and collapse on his fluffy soft bed. Oh how he is missing his bed now.

Jeongguk is just wishing that today his brother will come to the uni. Or even just send him a message. That would be enough for him to know that his hyung is not angry. But he knows that is far from the truth. His Jimin now despises him and won't even look at him again. "Early again? Since when did you start waking up this early?" He heard Taehyung say who just came and took his seat beside the younger. "Since Jimin left." He replied gloomily. "He is not home yet" Asked Taehyung while frowning. "Would I be sitting here like this then?" Jeongguk rolled his eyes making other scoff. "He will be back don't worry." Taehyung said making the younger sigh sadly.

The class soon starts to fill but there is no sign of Jimin yet. Now Jeongguk regrets even coming here. He should have stayed at home so he wouldn't be this hurt. He doesn't feel like doing anything at all now. The door opened again but he doesn't even bother to look up. He knows it is some other student and not his Jimin. He was about to bang his head on the table ahead in frustration when Taehyung nudged him with his elbow a little hardly making him grown and glare at him but he frowned when Taehyung gestured in front with his head. He looked in the front at the door and his breath hitched when he saw Jimin standing there but he is not alone. Next to him is standing Rose with their hands laced together. They both walks inside and sat together on the corner seat near window. "When did this happen?" Taehyung asked staring at the two with his mouth wide open. Instead of replying Jeongguk just looked ahead trying to ignore his shattered heart.
