A Chance To Heal

"I have come to make a deal, I know who are…Nicole Wyatt" he says. I was shocked, but I narrowed my eyes.

"I also knew your parents"

I scoffed. No one knew my parents as I was an orphan. I also had suffered from partial amnesia when I was little so I didn't know much about my parents. My memories eventually came back to me but in fragments. One of these fragments told me my parents were murdered.

"I don't believe you," I say.

"Bella and Stephan Wyatt"

I gaped. How did he know? No one in my company knew, as my documents of origin were classified.

"You see I know all about you, and I've known you for a long time, I was the person who took care of your financial expenses since you were a child," he said.

"What?" I was blurred. I then realized that my expenses were paid secretly and I always thought it was some facility for children. I was in a rush of questions but Sejin didn't let me ask.

"I will answer your questions all in a good time. Now that we're past the surprising things let's come to the matter at hand … the deal. I will help you find your parent's murderers and avenge their death for a price not that big" he says.

My parent's murder how did he know that? I have been searching all my life for the culprit and this guy is ready to help me… I have had no luck so far, I might as well take my chances and if this guy knew my parents he might know who murdered them or at least have a clue about it.

"Fine, but I want to take part in the investigation," I say.

"Very well, now back to the deal. Obviously, you have heard of K-pop and I'm the manager of one of the bands BTS"

Oh, so he wanted me to be a lifetime outfit provider for free or something.

"They have a new album they are going to produce but they need an outsider's perspective of love and not themselves, so I need you to write the album lyrics"

WHAT? That was the third shock I had gotten today, but this is completely crazy. Why would he want ME to do that? I couldn't write. He could have chosen someone else…WHY ME?

"What do you mean? I can't write"

"I know you specialized in creative writing and I've seen the pieces you wrote from before… you see I have connections everywhere"

"That was years ago, now I do fashion designing"

"I know but your writing is alright and I know you will be able to pull it off, you understand that I couldn't ask another person because it would take time to find someone and we need an immediate lyricist"

"But I couldn't possibly—"

"Do you want to find your parent's murderers or not?"

"Yes, but—"

"So it's a deal?"

"Excuse me for a minute, I would like to think about this…deal"

"Of course" I walk out of the room to clear my head. The fresh air helps to clear my muddled thoughts.

It's funny how someone can just pull the right string and you would give in. Now you would think anyone would do that if they knew your weak spot. But…What if that weak spot is not for you to pry open? What if you don't even have a weak spot or what if it was unreachable? Then someone finds it, the weak spot forbidden to all—mine, the same spot that no one would ever know existed.

What happened to being unstoppable, unbreakable and whole? Now I am scared, fragile and broken. I knew that no one knew the truth about me and that gave me the strength to go on knowing I had no weak spot for the world to see. Now someone waltzes in and reveals the darkest memories of my past. The memories that I locked away knowing that they would only break me. I sunk them down the deepest trench of the ocean, tossed them above and beyond the universe. I made a new body, but I knew that my soul was the same, broken and scarred.

Now I have a chance to heal my soul, to never see those memories again, and the price? Not too much, but will I be able to pull it off? It's a good thing I still write poems every now and then, but I have been out of practice. No, I have to, I have to find out who those heartless animals we're and tear them apart. I was ready I had my answer. I walked back in and faced Sejin.

"I'll do it"

"Great! Now…contract" He slides a paper towards me and I read through it. I sign it and make a promise in my heart that I will avenge my parents.

"Good, Now I will explain what is going to happen. First, you will go to Bighit entertainment and work as an apprentice for me, so no one will suspect you. I will introduce you to the members and explain who you are, you will stay at their dorm and work there, you can quit whenever you want but you must finish this album. You will attend the member's tv shows and comebacks with them

There will be no cameras in the dorm so you won't be in the public's eye. As for your parents' murderers, I have an idea of who it is, but I am not sure, I need more proof. I will investigate further and let you know then I will leave it to you what you want to do with them."

"Okay thank you," I say

"You are quite welcome"

"Wait what about Bob?"

"Oh, the driver is unharmed"

He signals to the men and we leave the dark alley.

The car ride was quiet the whole way because I was lost in my thoughts, and Sejin didn't speak to me which I was thankful for since he might have known it was too much to take in all at once.

We reached the company and I was taken to a secluded building on the left, the building must have been very important or not at all because it was on its own. We took the lift to one of the floors and came to a door which was labeled BTS, for some reason it was familiar to me but I couldn't put my finger on it. We walked in and there were seven people standing in a line as if they were waiting. Wait…How long have they been waiting like that? My eyes shifted to one of them and I gaped. It was Taehyung.
