-Funeral-

Tae saw the light of the day just for it to be followed by a surprise, Even though Tae was facing the other way from Hope when he first awoke, the young man was startled to discover that the leader was still in bed with him when he opened his eyes. This had never happened before because no matter how many times they had shared a bed, the leader was never there the next morning.

Turning around, Taehyung saw the leader's bare back when he was dozing off, the lethal scar finally coming up close to the younger in all its majesty.
While the sight of it made him feel extremely uncomfortable, he brought his hand forward anyways because he wanted to touch it. He couldn't really tell before, but it was clear that it hadn't healed completely and appeared to be a really deep cut.

What exactly happened that time ? Was the only thing on his mind, eyes fully focused on the scar.

The leader was evidently conscious at the time because he abruptly turned the younger over before he could get his fingers close to his flesh. " You really shouldn't do something which you can't handle the consequences of Tae, so I suggest you keep your hands to yourself." with that said the elder walked out of the room.

The younger said, " That was close." However, it wasn't anything new, so it didn't really bother him.

[ Taehyung's pov ]

After a few days, I am hopeful that something is definetely going on with him as he has become incredibly quiet, has stopped arguing with me and is once again acting in a patronising manner.

It was pouring outside as if his tears were given to the clouds, like the clouds could feel the agony of what was below them. A male in a black suit stood there in the rain, emotionless, watching as the body was buried. He had a stern face and was unmoved by what he was seeing.

An elderly woman patted his head and said, "You were a great child Hoseok, she must have departed without any regrets of taking you in. "

"It's okay if you let it all out, my child," the woman said before leaving, one by one, the others followed.

Namjoon was also present there, but he did not console the man who was standing in the rain; instead, he discreetly withdrew since he realised that the leader needed some privacy. Hope infront of the gravestone, gazing at it for what seemed like an eternity before finally bowing down and weeping his heart out, he can't recall the last time he cried, but today he just needed to let it all out.

"Grandma, how could you abandon me so quickly? I had no other family except you." The leader simply continued to sob while placing his head on his grandma's grave and reciting the same phrase again and over.

" Are you sure that man's alwight thwere? " inquired a little girl as the sight was quite disturbing to her.

" I honestly don't know." to which Namjoon honestly replied.

" But grandma just went to the stars rwight? Why is he so sad about it? "

" He was the first child that Grandma adopted; this was long before you entered her life, that man simply did not want her to leave."

" B-but she will be coming back so w-why- "

" Yeah she will. " answered namjoon not looking her in the eye.

Namjoon was also disturbed by the scene because it was the first time he had ever seen Hope cry so violently. The heavy rain only added to his worries for the leader. Then, he had an idea and turned to the young girl standing next to him and said " "Want to help me out, Suran? After all, that man characterises your brother somewhat." Upon glancing at the young girl, age five, Namjoon said, causing her eyes to sparkle.

" I-I have a b-bwother? " she questioned to which Namjoon nodded hesitantly.

Although Jung is extremely vicious, I don't believe he would hurt the girl, but I'm not sure if I should have told her about his brother thingy, Namjoon thought to himself.

The rain had stopped by the time the little girl with the umbrella went to where the boy was. Over the man's head, the girl held the umbrella while she said." You are swuch a big boy and yet you are cwrying this hard, grandma is gonna come soon I pwomise so don't cry."

Of course he knew who she was, but the young boy never really warmed up to her and didn't understand why his grandmother had taken her in. The fact that she could keep grandma company and the fact that he didn't want to upset her at the time kept him from speaking.

" Who the fuck said she's going to come back. " Hoseok spatted at her causing the little girl to flinch but he was not the one to care and continued. " Now get away from here or else I'll-" the leader paused mid-sentence when the young girl forcefully embraced him." Grandma always used to hug me when I would cry. "

All the grieving made the man weak, he did push the girl away but she would cling back to him, clutching him ever so closely. The leader didn't hug in return, but he eventually caved in and let her to. As she released him, the man's eyes were filled with tears as he turned to face her.

The girl patted his head mumbling a small " It's okay " and the male cried to his hearts extent there. The young child, unable to stop herself, began crying as well. She wiped away her tears with one hand and patted the elder's head with the other. The male finally stopped crying after what seemed like an eternity and turned to face the girl, her eyes still wet.

" Now why are you crying ?" He asked wipping his tears away.

"Because it upsets me to see you cry."

He stood up and asked, "What?" as he watched the female reach out and grab him.

" Pick me up you meanie I am tired. "

He responded, "No way in hell am I doing that you ant," with a disgusted expression.

" I MADE YOU STOP CRYING YOU MEANIE, PICK ME UP ALREADY! " she yelled angrily, now teary eyed.

" Whatever, come on. " he said, picked the girl up and headed towards the shelter.
