Night In Two Sides

With the tick-tock pass of a usual night,

At one part of the city, you will see a house full of lights, dazzling not less than a bright sunny day.

At another part, you will also see a house in the grave dark, with no drop of fuel left to light up even a match.

The night doesn't remain stopped for any of them. It is equal for all, the way time is...

Y/N's P.O.V-

Know everything about me? What is this person? A stalker? Wait. I cocked my eyes. What if he is indicating about…? But how can…

Y/N : What do you mean? Who are you?

... : It's not that difficult to recognize me. Try to make a guess. Who am I?

Just some stupid sleepless nocturnal people trying to spoil others sleep too by annoying them, what else? I was about to quit the conversation without giving any reply but he sent me a message again.

... : Okay, I am giving you a hint. Think about the person you were with near a lake today.

...I paused for a moment...before my fingers moved with my jaw clenched in annoyance.

Y/N : Jimin???

... : BINGO!!

Y/N : How did you get my number? I don't remember giving you any.

... : C'mon. You are our manager. Would it be really difficult to collect yours?

: I was getting bored so I decided to send you a text.

: How're you doing?

Y/N : Good

… : Things got solved with you bae??

Y/N : Bae?

… : You told earlier that you were through some probs with your boyfriend. Is everything okay now?

Y/N : Did I?

… : ?

Y/N : Oh yeah, yeah. We're good now.

: In fact, I was just texting with him a moment ago.

: We were planning on to hangout soon...

… : Typing…

: Typing...

: Well. That's good.

: Am I interrupting? Good night then.

Y/N : He went offline.

… : Oh I see

: Won't you introduce him to us? We would like to meet him.

Y/N : Currently he is really occupied with his work, but I will ask him.

… : Oh, okay.

: Anyways. Y/N ah! ~~

Jimin's P.O.V-

'Hyung, who are you texting with?' Jungkook leaned over at the edge of the couch tilting his head towards me. 'Nothing. Just some time pass.'

Me : I need to go now.

Y/N : Why didn't you go already?

Me : Rude noona.

: Sleep well!

Y/N : Bye. 👀

I put down the phone exiting the conversation then looked at the maknae.

'Namjoon hyung wanted all of us to come by to talk over our next task.' Jungkook said.

'Suga, are you done with analyzing the prints?' Namjoon asked the male wearing a hoodie who had his head down engaged before the screen of his laptop. 'Yes, all done.' He did the last click and stretched his arms. 'Here you go.' he turned the laptop around to let all others take a view on its screen.

'Great. Now that we know about the security the whole place,' Namjoon glanced over the enlarged photo, 'Next task is to find out the blind spots to escape through without alarming the men.'

'Leave that to the genius.' Yoongi turned the laptop back to him blowing a whistle playfully. 'But before that, we need to collect more information about him. He is one of those bigger targets that we have had till now.' Hoseok said.

Namjoon replied nodding his head, 'Yeah, you're right. Besides that, what about the fake profiles? They must be precise and of high quality. He can't be suspicious of us. JK, you will help me with this.' The youngest nodded.

'However,' Hoseok said, 'We won't be able to conduct out the task before our show.' Jin reminded, 'Also, don't forget the promotional activities coming by.'

'That means our hands are tied before the schedule loosens up a bit.' I said, 'So, why should we rush things like this? Let's just take it slow.'

'Yeah,' The oldest said, 'We didn't get any spare time at all past weeks for our rehearsal. We got two days off only. Therefore, let's just relax this weekend.'

Everyone else agreed with him while releasing a deep breath. The stuffed schedule with no space in between to rest, the pressure was real.

'Anyways,' Namjoon took over the silence, 'Have you all forgotten about that man Duksoo?'

By his words, all immediately remembered about the past incident, giving us back the earlier temporary jolt, along with the tension. Hoseok said in a worried voice, 'Yeah, about that- we can't still find out how his body disappeared. Someone must have come in the alley after we were gone.' 'It was probably some associate or friend of that guy.' Jungkook said. 'Who else could it be?'

'I don't think there is any need of prioritizing the thing.' Yoongi decided to speak up a bit, 'When Kookie was talking with that guy, I checked the place in and out. No one else was there. Or even if someone actually saw us, he won't be able to identify us later time because we were completely in disguise. Duk Soo himself didn't know about our real identity, the one we are to the outside world. The cover on our face didn't move an inch from its place. Besides, we left nothing back in there that could lead anyone to us.'

'Yoongi, are you the one who's saying this? It was you who was quite worried of all at first when the body was discovered to be gone.' 'Yes, but then I thought about it and came to this conclusion of not worrying anymore, you see.'

'I don't wholly agree with you, Yoongi.' The leader continued, 'I can't find the exact theory behind someone coming to the alley after we left then taking the body away in silence like that. Like, why would they? Why would someone? If they didn't know about who we were, who the guy was, why would they?' There was logic to his words.

'I think…it was probably someone who was actually aware of our work or sensed something was going to happen. Even though I trust your logic, we should be more careful in the future. I am not feeling really good about this.'

'Our rivals?'

'Can think of a name?' Namjoon asked. Hoseok shook his head, 'Not any, currently.'

'What if it was the police?' Tae asked.

'Don't be stupid, Taehyung-ah.' Yoongi sounded annoyed, 'Did you ever see any police come by in silence and take a dead body away without making any noise? There would have been sirens, police cars- surrounding the spot, dead body mark, 'crime scene do not cross' tapes and all. The most part, at least a news about a mysterious dead man on the TV!'

'And also, the place was totally secluded. When not even general people pass by that place, what would the police do going over there? Or how are they even supposed to be aware of any crime held in there this soon?' Jungkook said.

'Then who else remains?' All seven of us glanced at each other.

'Can it be...'
