"Jimin!" - Jungkook yelled and started to cry.

He knelt down to my body and put my head on his lap.

"Jiminie, you-you'll be fine, okay?" - Jungkook told me through his tears.

"D-don't worry... about m-me!" - my eyes were going to close every moment.

"Why did you do it?! Are you crazy?!" - Jungkook shouted at Lisa.

"You had to die, not him! I need him alive, since only he knows where my money is! But the jerk took the bullet!" - Lisa replied.

Jungkook stood up and approached Lisa, who was still holding the gun.

"Do not go any closer!" - Lisa pushed the trigger and shot Jungkook's shoulder.

"J-Jungkook...!" - I said, barely in conscious.

"Why-why are you doing this?! I trusted you! Was everything a lie?!" - he asked her, while holding his shoulder.

"I have a reason! But he only messes up in our life! I'll kill him" - she directed the gun at me.

"I won't let you do it!" - Jungkook took out his father's gun and directed it to Lisa.

"If you push the trigger and kill Jimin,.... I swear I'll shoot myself, but I'll take you with me, no matter what!" - Jungkook was explicit.

"You don't understand! I need that money! I didn't want to hurt anyone, but the cruel life made me do multiple crimes! I'm not such a bad person!" - Lisa yells.

"Then why?! Why do you keep doing this?! Look, it's not too late to change! If you surrender now, it will be the best for everyone!" - he told her.

"I didn't have a mother. My father was beating me every day because I am the offspring of the family. He even sexually harassed me. I kept seeing him negotiating with various weird guys to sell them weapons.

I went to bed every night thinking that he loved me because I was his daughter, but it wasn't. I longed for him to hug me at least once and tell me 'that's my girl'.

When I was 15, he left for Mexico and left me alone. Then I had no other choice except to work for him. I want this money to escape and hide from this man! Let the police catch him!" - Lisa started to cry.

"We all have problems! Jimin and I are both completely alone! But we don't commit crimes just because life has punished us! Because everything that happens to us in life, we ​​had deserved it in some way!

Even though you think you didn't do anything bad in life, everything has a reason! We struggle with problems and try to change to better, not looking for faults in others!" - Jungkook was looking straight in her eyes, while both of them were holding the guns.

"No, life made me that way! I didn't do anything wrong! But life is unfair, cruel and rough! Look at your friend, I'm sure, he didn't do anything bad in his life, but look... he's laying and dying there." - Lisa responded.

"You're right, but this does happen, because of unfair people like you!" - he yelled.

"You're both dying now!" - she told Jungkook.

"Not sure about that!" - he said with a smirk.

A police sirens were heard.

"You, bastard!" - Lisa understood that we phoned the police.

Right then a police cars arrived. They got out of their cars and handcuffed Lisa.

"One day life will punish you just like it did to me! You'll end up killing people, because of that! Don't forget these words,... Jeon Jungkook!" - Lisa got in the police car and they left.

Jungkook missed the gun.

"J-jimin,...we did it!" - Kookie fell unconscious on the ground.

I was still conscious, but when I saw Jungkook falling, I also closed my eyes.

A few days time skip.

I was trying to open my eyes timidly

I was trying to open my eyes timidly. The first thing I saw was the doctor staring at me. At first I thought I was dead, but then realized I was in a hospital.

"Jimin, open your eyes! You're in the hospital." - said the doctor.

"H-huh?" - I touched my head.

"You have returned from death, boy! Luckily, you're alright, and we'll discharge you tomorrow!" - she added.

"How-how is Jungkook? Is he okay?" - I asked.

"Yes, he's very fine, don't worry! He's recovering." - said the doctor.

The doctor and the nurse left. I was left alone with thoughts.

Suddenly, someone entered my room. It was not anyone else, but Jungkook.

"Why did you got up? I heard you're not recovered!" - I told him.

"I couldn't stop myself, sorry! Jimin, I wanna talk with you, if you feel better, of course." - Kookie uttered.

"Yeah, sure." - I responded

"I'm sorry, that I couldn't open my eyes, when it was the right time! How would I know that Lisa is a psychopath? I feel terrible for messing you in problems and dangerous situation. Thank you for protecting me, but don't do it again, okay?" - he said.

"Don't worry it's okay! Everyone does mistakes! I hope, I at least helped you get the truth about your parents' death." - I uttered.

"Now, I get what was everything for."

"What happened with the money?" - I inquired.

"Oh, the police searched your house and they took the money. Dirty money, happened to be the reason for that many people's death! Money isn't happiness!" - Jungkook was categorical.

"You're absolutely right!....." - I went sad.

"What's wrong?" - he asked.

"Nothing, I just feel dumb. Like there is no one who wants to visit us. I wish we had any relatives or a family. Do we deserve to be alone?" - I said.

"No, because if life met us, then we don't deserve to be alone, right?" - he uttered.

"Definitely!" - I laughed.
