As the three sat in the living room, they had heard a scream coming from the bed room. Which immediately caught their attention. Yeonjun ran to the room and busted the door open, seeing Kai holding Taehyun close, tears falling down his face.
"Hyuka!" Yeonjun ran over to Kai's side, looking at the boy that he was holding onto, "What happened?!"
"I-I walked in to check up on him..a-and when I went up to him he was pale, h-his body felt cold, he wasn't breathing!" Kai broke down after mentioning the last part, his subtle tears soon turned into sobs. His grip on the boy became tighter and the tears soon damped his shirt.
"Wha- one of you go call 119! Hurry!" Yeonjun yelled at Soobin and Beomgyu, who were just standing there.
"O-Okay!" Beomgyu pulled at his phone and walked out the room, dialing the emergency number. Soobin, again, just stood there. His face was dull, no expression whatsoever.
It creeped Yeonjun out.
"I-Is it my fault? I should've checked on him earlier! I'm so sorry!" Kai cried out, his tears continuing to fall down.
"No, don't say things like that! It's not your fault, we don't even know what happened to him." Yeonjun hugged Kai, drawing circles on his back to calm him down. As much as he, himself, wanted to be calm, the tears started spilling from his eyes.
His friend was dead? How could that be? Did he possibly die in his sleep? But Taehyun never showed any symptoms of a health condition that could lead to this. Everything happened just so suddenly.
The paramedics soon rushed through the door, Beomgyu following, and before they knew it, Taehyun was in a stretcher. There was no point though, cause there was no way in saving him. He was dead, gone forever. What could they possibly do?
"I'm gonna go talk with the paramedics. One of you please try and help Kai." Yeonjun said to Soobin and Beomgyu, then walked out the house where the paramedics were. Beomgyu just stood there, and Soobin had a smile that had plastered on his face as soon as Yeonjun left.
He was laughing.
Beomgyu and Kai looked at him with fear plastered on their faces. Laughing at a time like this? What was there to laugh about?
"What's your issue? This isn't the time to be laughing!" Kai said, wiping the tears off his face and made eye contact with Soobin.
"Aw, how come? It's for the better right? That brat is finally gone." Soobin said with a pout on his face, clearly mocking Kai.
"For the better?! Taehyun is fucking dead! Nothing is happening for the better right now!" Kai walked up to Soobin, gripping his shirt, "Our friend is dead, and all you can do is laugh?!"
"Friend? Pfft. You truly believe he was my friend? I wanted him dead! I needed him dead. It would've been better if I killed that bitch myself, but also, I'd rather not be locked up in a cell."
After hearing what Soobin said, something had clicked. Something triggered him. Kai blacked out, just standing there, not moving at all.
"Are you done being a cry baby now?" Soobin said with a bored tone, "It's not that serious, y'know."
'For the better? It's for the better that Taehyun died?'
And just like that, Soobin was on the floor, with his face bruised. Kai had punched him in the face, his anger and hatred for the older in the moment had taken over him.
"NOTHING IS FOR THE BETTER!" Kai yelled out, pulling Soobin up by his hair, "You fucking psycho bitch! What the hell did Taehyun do to you?! What did he do to deserve to die?! If this is the way you truly are, I would've rather had you go instead and not my friend!"
"Yah! Why are you getting mad at me? You should be doing this to Beomgyu, he's the one that committed the murder after all."
Beomgyu flinched at the mention of his name, and soon tears rolled down his face. He was scared, really, really scared. Kai immediately turned to make eye contact with him, his body shaking from anger.
"I-I'm sorry..I didn't want to, I really didn't.." Beomgyu mumbled as he held back tears, his body shaking.
"You..? You killed Taehyun?"
He didn't respond, he just stood there, looking at the ground as the tears started to fall.
"You son of a bitch."
"Huh?"
Kai grabbed a enough, and his grip on it became tight. His hand was shaking, but he was mad. Really mad. He just couldn't believe that his friends, or better yet, "friends," would go out to kill someone.
"I trusted you." Kai stepped closer, bringing the knife up higher.
"I-I'm sorry Hyuka! I really am! I didn't want to do it!"
"If you didn't want to, then why the hell did you?! SORRY ISN'T GONNA BRING HIM BACK!" Kai yelled, and plunged towards the other with the knife. But someone had grabbed his wrist, and was holding him back.
It was Yeonjun.
"What the hell are you doing?! Why were you just trying to kill Beomgyu?" Yeonjun said with sternness in his voice, like he was scolding a child.
"I TRUSTED YOU! I FUCKING TRUSTED YOU! I DON'T CARE HOW MANY TIMES YOU APOLOGIZE, SORRY WILL NEVER BRING HIM BACK!" Kai yelled as his continued to plunge towards Beomgyu, not caring that Yeonjun was there. He didn't care about how many people were watching him. He just wanted the boy that was standing there right in front of him gone.
Beomgyu started breaking down, he fell to the floor and he started sobbing. It had really hit him right then and there that he had fucked up. He was the one to blame. Taehyun was dead because of him.
"I'm sorry Taehyun," Beomgyu said through his sobs, "but I really do love you."
