~FLASHBACK~
THIRD PERSON'S P.O.V
He continues walking, basking in the now eerie silence of the suburbs. The thin layers of ice on the pathway crackle under the rubber soles of his shoes. In the distance, a lamppost glows amber. As he starts walking towards the small guy, looking down the bridge. Matt black gloves cling on his hands for precaution. And as he was near, It was obvious that the guy leaning against the bridge, breathing heavily due to running away from his make-believe killer must have sensed his presence as he turned around and gasped.
"Hoseok hyung?".
The poor guy, barely able to catch his breath started panicking and tried to get away, but Hoseok didn't let him escape in time, The voices of his late sister that were in his mind all the time didn't let him, As he grabbed Jimin by the shoulder and pressed a suspicious handkerchief on his face, The younger started grunting, struggling, trying to set himself free but he couldn't resist the chloroform for a long time and soon the struggling stopped.
Throwing Jimin's body in the water, Jhope drove away from the bridge- Stopped near a bus stop and burned the gloves in an empty tin trash can, got inside his car, and waited. Sometimes later he saw Jin's car pass by, He smirked and started his car and soon enough, he was behind Jin's car when he got a call from the said person.
"I am behind you, hyung..."
~PRESENT TIME~
JHOPE'S P.O.V
Right ahead of my feet was there Jin on his knees crying with his head in the sand and there was Namjoon who hid his face into his two hands to hide his drenched face, wet of the salty tears that I have caused. And just ahead lay the peaceful Han river, fish, twigs, leaves and he swam in its water.
There he was. JIMIN, HOW DOES IT FEEL NOT TO SPEAK NOW? DOESN'T IT FEEL GOOD? OH WAIT YOU WON'T ANSWER, YOU'RE DEAD. YOU-You-you are d-dead? who killed you? oh wait, IT WAS ME, that's right it was ME, YOUR BLOOD IS ON MY HANDS JIMIN. and now you're on a permanent mute, well at least you can sleep without worrying anymore.
I walked away without making much noise and I needed to escape quickly, there were still 2 people left so I couldn't spare my life so early, it would have taken at least a day for the police to find the note I left and give it to them, in that time I had to get rid of Namjoon.
I opened the car door and hopped onto the driver's seat and turned the car on as quietly as possible while I drove off. the moon looked beautiful as always and the street dogs were asleep. The Sagittarius was visible in the clear night sky and the tranquility was rarely disturbed by a shooting star, even the skies were weeping at the sight of Jimin's death is what I thought as I drove off the lone road with only one thing going in my head, repeatedly-
"You did well...You did good brother, you killed him. But you still have two of them left..kill them too."
The light from the dots was disturbed by dark not observable clouds and I could hear the owls gazing upon the movements.
NAMJOON P.O.V
After I got out of my dilemma. I took my phone out of my pocket and dialed the number "119" with shaky hands and blurry eyes.
"H-hello? This is Kim Namjoon and I have to report the dead body of my friend in the Han river."
I didn't wait for any response from the other line as I hung up and hugged Jin hyung.
"J-jin h-hyung.."
But he pushed me away and scurried back with fear written on his face. While I just sat there, with confusion and empty arms which used be to be always ready to hug someone when they needed it. But now, when I need it...he was backing away?
"DON'T TOUCH ME, YOU KILLER! YOU KILLED JIMIN! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW! DID YOU LOVE JE SUN THAT MUCH, THAT YOU STARTED KILLING US ONE BY ONE! IF YES, THEN LISTEN TO ONE THING, KIM NAMJOON. YOU HAVE AN EQUAL HAND IN HER DEATH! After All, who closed the door when she was running to get out of that burning house? Who destroyed the only hope of her being alive? Isn't it you?"
"H-hyung...I didn't do it..he ran away from me and when I reached here...he was already in the water... I-it can be Hoseok too.."
"Liar, Hoseok was behind me the whole time."
"Was he? Was he behind you ALL the time?"
By the way, he went silent, I knew it was Hoseok. It has to be, And somewhere deep inside I bet even Jin hyung knows who is it...but he is just in denial. Well played Hoseok.
I was snatched out of my trance when I saw Jin hyung hurriedly walking towards his car. I scrambled and stood up, ran towards him, and grabbed his hand.
"Where are you going?"
"Home"
"Hyung, I think we should stay together right now..."
Then he snatched his hand away from mine, Turned around, and spat out some words laced in bittersweet poison before he got in his car and left, without even sparing a single glance. As I fell on the ground with my hands on my knees with his words roaming in my mind.
"Why? So you could kill me too?"
