"I'm sorry!"
"I can't help you even if I want to." Says Taehyung as he hears D entering the room.

"Why do you have to be sorry? Everything is happening because of me. I made you to lie, I made Yoongi hate me by trespassing his property without his permission and I still kept lying to him."
"I deserve all these." She says

"What's even right between any of us? It's not you trespassing, it's our elders who played games on each of us just for the throne and crown."
"Please don't be mad at me, I have to let you go. I can't turn down my brother." Taehyung says.

"You will not lie to him about anything again. If there is anything I wanna do, I won't tell you either. If I do, you will be forced to lie to him. And this mistake can't happen again and again."

"So you are up to something again?" Asks Taehyung.

"Remember why I had to return again? I had made up my mind to help Jimin and get seokjin out. Moreover, Jungkook is still in there and there's Hoseok and Yoonji on the other side. Everyone should get what they need and I promised to help them." D says

"What a soft hearted person you are! Even after facing so much of hurdles, you still want to walk in this path?"

"Not in this path Taehyung. Away from this path, but to same goal."
"Isn't it possible to take Seokjin along with me?"

Taehyung stares at her without a motive.

"Huh? Are you hearing me? I said I want to take Seokjin along." D asks

Taehyung takes his eyes off her, continues to pack her clothes and mutters, "He is all yours. Why do you have to ask me? I'll just go and tell hyung. He will definitely let him go."

"Then go do it. I will pack my stuffs myself. I want to get out from here as soon as I can."

******************************************

The King lets Seokjin go with D without speaking a word out. Also, he didn't wish to see her for one last time nor wanted to say a final good bye. But D hoped to see him for one last time before leaving.

"I asked him if he could come down to see you, but he didn't speak a word out. I wish you could have stayed here a bit longer. It's been few days and it feels like we have been living together for a month. Doesn't it feels the same for you?" Asks Taehyung

"I don't know. I never thought like that. Thinking about it now makes no difference to me."
"Just to let you know, I won't be going anywhere. I will be here in this village until I succeed in helping Jimin. Make sure you tell Jimin about Jungkook and get him out from there."

"Jimin doesn't know that you are leaving. I didn't think of informing him about this."

" That's good then. Tell him after I leave, so that he wouldn't come looking for me." Says D.

"I will keep that in mind."
"But... Will you be able to do everything on your own?"

"You doubt that Taehyung?"

"A little bit. You couldn't do anything yourself until today, how will you do that here after?"

"I will follow the same. I believe I can get help from people around."

Saying so, D turns around to take a leave.

"Wait!" Shouts Taehyung
"You forgot something."
He takes the sword that the servant passes to him and hands it to D.
This belongs to you. The rightful owner of this sword.

She refuses. "I agree I got this along, but this belong here. It was never mine to take along."

Taehyung speechlessly looks at her.
"Then who is the owner of this sword?"
