Jungkook returns back to his car now that he has the address, peeling out of the parking lot, mentally preparing himself for what might happen. He knows he can take Mr. Cho, he's a lot younger and stronger than him, he's not worried about that. He just hopes it doesn't get more complicated and he can safely whisk Jin away.
He's already caused him pain, he doesn't want to add onto it anymore.
He nears the quiet neighborhood and stakes it out a few ways back, it's too light out still so once the streetlights come on, he'll take action. He'd be of no help if he gets caught so all he can do right now is keep watch.
He sits in silence, drumming his fingers against his steering wheel. Maybe he'll go out or something, maybe this man isn't completely pathetic and he has a life outside of teaching. Even if he drowns himself in alcohol at a bar, as long as he leaves the house, Jungkook doesn't care.
While he waits, he starts thinking about what he should do and how, racking his brain to find the safest solution for the both of them.
Night falls upon him and no activity in the last three hours is making it hard on Jungkook. But this is the least he can do.
His phone's buzzing stirs him fully awake and he sits up frantically, his eyes darting straight to Mr. Cho's house. Fuck, his car is still parked.
He huffs and picks up his phone to see who's calling him and it's his uncle. He ignores it and lets it go to voicemail, ruffling his hair and rubbing his eyes of sleep. Fuck it, he might just barge in there and kick his ass instead.
Well, he doesn't have to now. Mr. Cho walks out of his house towards his car, backing out of his driveway and before he passes Jungkook's car, Jungkook sets his seat back to hide from him. Once he knows he's in the clear, he fixes his seat and exits his car, jogging to the house.
His phone starts buzzing again in his pocket, making him curse. In annoyance, he pulls it out and hastily answers it.
"What?"
"Woah, is that any way of talking to your uncle?"
"Sorry. Hey, I can't talk right now," he replies as he looks around for a way in.
"What are you up to?"
"Um, just hanging around. I'm real busy."
Jungkook misses the snarky little 'humph'. "Listen Jungkook, Dara got back to me on a little disturbance in my office. You wouldn't happen to know anything about it, would you?"
He swallows hard. His uncle is real cool about letting him in his office while he's working on stuff, but it's always when he's around. He's never allowed in there without him. Too much important information lying around.
"No, I wouldn't," he lies. "I gotta go."
He hangs up and puts away his phone as he makes his way around the house and to the back. The back door looks old unlike the front one and he wonders if he can break in through here without making a scene.
Ji-yong purses his lips as his nephew hangs up on him rather rudely. It could've been anybody who had snuck into his office, but his gut is strongly telling him that it was Jungkook. After all, there's a document missing from Mr. Cho's file. Dara and the counselor have their own copies for emergency purposes so it wouldn't be them. But there's some info that they don't have.
He's well aware that Seokjin has been absent for a week and he's also aware on where he is located. He's covered Mr. Cho's deeds for a while now since they've known each other for years and he's not going to stop now. Not after their solid deal.
He hid away Jin's file and made sure it was believed he simply dropped out and left.
He sighs as he dials the professor's number.
"Oh, Ji-yong! What can I do for you?"
"Where are you?"
"I'm grabbing a bite to eat. Why?"
"You might want to hurry back home. You may be getting a visitor."
Jungkook makes it inside the home and immediately starts snooping around. Since he finds nothing downstairs, he quickly goes upstairs and begins opening random doors. He enters a room, using the flash light on his phone to look around and his heart drops once he spots a lump on the bed covered by a blanket.
Cautiously, he gets close and once he pulls the blanket off, he's met with Jin's dirty and greasy hair, his back facing him. He starts to cry when he gets a better look at his body, which are covered in bruises, scratches, and hickeys.
"Jinnie?" He says shakily, getting no reply. He wraps him back up in the blanket since he's completely naked and he picks him up bridal style.
He bites his lip as he looks at his pale face, careful not to drop him on his way down the carpeted stairs. He walks across the living room towards the back door in the kitchen when he sees car lights through the window.
"Shit."
He hurries, almost tripping over his own feet and right as he exits the house, Mr. Cho barges in and immediately goes upstairs to make sure Jin is still there.
Jungkook gently sets Jin down in the back seat and runs around to the driver's side, starting up his car and peeling out of the neighborhood, not wasting a single second. In the rearview mirror, he sees Mr. Cho run out of his house and onto the street, watching him drive away with his hostage.
He keeps glancing back at Jin as he weaves through late night traffic. If it wasn't for his soft breathing, he would've thought he was dead because of the bad shape his body is in.
He reaches the hospital and pulls up into the ER entrance, ignoring an employee who is yelling at him for the way he parked and carrying Jin inside the huge building. He fights with the staff to take Jin to get him examined until finally they do after he somewhat explains the situation. He tries following them but they deny him entrance, saying he can visit once they're done with him.
He really wants to be there, but he's going to let them do their job. He'll stay out of the way.
