Author's POV
"What's taking them so long?" Pacing around the room, Jin can barely stand staying in the arcade any longer. He wants to go outside and see what's happening but he stays where he is and waits for Tara to come to him instead.
Jungkook shrugs. "Relax hyung, it's probably nothing."
"Nothing? Both my mother and Chunhei's mother want to speak to her. And I'm pretty sure they don't have any good news or anything good in general to say." Jin fires back.
"At times like these you need to have a little hope hyung." Jimin tilts his head whilst watching Jin's nerves rise. "We tend to overthink the littlest of things."
"This isn't exactly little though Jimin." Taehyung replies with his arms crossed over his chest. "But he is right. They could be talking about anything."
Shrugging his shoulders, Jin frutratedly sighs whilst waiting for what seems like hours for Tara to arrive.
Their heads then turns to the double doors that's been swung open, and two people walk inside.
Jin jolts up into a standing position from leaning on one of the arcade motorbikes. "What happened? What did mom want to say to Tara?"
Seokjoong sighs and exchanges looks with Ahreum by his side. Jin's eyebrows furrow when his brother stays quiet, and the other three boys have noticed it aswell.
"What's wrong?" Jin asks, standing up from sitting on one of the arcade motorbikes. "Where's Tara?"
Ahreum closes her eyes, not wanting to say what she's going to say. She re-opens them. "She left, Jin."
Jin's hopeful expression starts to fade when hearing them words. "What do you mean she left?"
Seokjoong steps forwards. "She went a few minutes ago. She's going back home."
It takes Jin a couple seconds to register what he means. He stares at Seokjoong in disbelief. "You're lying. She wouldn't leave. Why would she leave?"
"They know, Jin. Both your parents and mine. About you and Tara. That you weren't really a couple." Ahreum speaks up.
Jin freezes. He looks at Ahreum in shock and then at Seokjoong. The three boys also stand in shock of what they're hearing, and they all glance at each other with uneasy expressions.
"I need to talk to her. Why the hell did she leave without speaking to me?"
"Because I told her to." Seokjoong says.
Jin's eyebrows furrow at his brother and his voice begins to raise. "What? Why would you do that? Why would you tell her to go home?"
"Because we have a much bigger problem Seokjin!" Seokjoong's voice also raises so that Jin will listen.
"What could be worse than this?"
Seokjoong glances at Ahreum. Groaning he grabs Jin by the arm and drags him out of the arcade. Ahreum sighs, rubbing her face with her hands.
"What's the bigger problem?" Jimin asks Ahreum out of curiosity.
Ahreum glances at them. She walks over, and begins to tell them what else has happened: what Seokjoong has to break to Jin.

"Hyung let go!" Jin yells, tugging on his arm. He finally manages to pree himself from his older brother and Seokjoong turns around. "What the hell is going on?"
Seokjoong sighs a painful sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose. He places a hand on Jin's shoulder and his face softens. "Remember when I told you ages ago about my arrow disappearing?"
