"It's not him."

"What do you mean it's not him?" JK's brows furrow as he looks at you and the man.

You look at Jungkook, needing a minute to think.... "He's the one who did it.. but he's not behind it."

"Then was it the people Taehyung paid off?" Jimin asks, looking from you to his best friend.

"Paid offf– wait- your shark loans?" Jungkook looks at all three of you.

"You knew??" Tae raises an eyebrow, a little upset you'd tell others but not him.

"She tells me everything."

"They were attacking her yesterday. Jimin was busy but I showed up, resolved it.. but I know she's still not safe," he sighs.. he couldn't stand seeing the man who did this to you any longer. He pulls you off the chair, sitting in it, "who put you up to it?"

The man chuckles, "She did."

Your brows furrow, looking at the man in confusion.

"Shut up and tell me the truth," Taehyung reaches over from under the semicircle space at the bottom of the window, holding the man's collar. The prisoner was cuffed so he couldn't do anything.

He only continues to laugh.

Jungkook shook his head at the guard who was watching the visitations when he jolted, seeing the situation, needing to pull Taehyung away.

There could only be one visitor but Jk pulled some strings knowing you'd still be traumatized if you saw him alone.

"She put it upon herself. She should've never opened her mouth," he grins, taunting the boys.

When you see the hitman's eyes, the feeling comes back. When you saw him through the semi truck window while you were flying in the air. You hug Jimin's torso, hiding your face in his chest as you hold your cries in. "What did I do wrong.....?"

Your best friend pets your hair, one arm around your back, "you didn't do anything wrong.." he kisses your hair, "we're gonna get your memories back."

Taehyung pulls the collar of the prisoner into the window to smash him against it, he stands up to exit the room, unable to contain his anger.

You sit bedside Taehyung in the restaurant, Jimin across from you, Jungkook across from Taehyung as Jungkook cooks the steak and pork in the middle griddle.

"Do you know what the person looked like in your dreams?" Jimin chimes, looking from his cup of water to your face.

"It wasn't clear. I just see someone in all black..." you look down, still thinking really hard about it.

"Do you know if she has any more shark loans to pay off Jungkook?" Taehyung asks, eyeballing the man's tattoos on his hand.

"No.. well.. there's 5, she paid off 2 before I met her.. her income as a nurse was enough to cover it.. but time was running out and they kept on jumping the numbers up. I don't know if that was the last one or not, sometimes she'd pay them little by little." Jungkook looks up to think to himself as he talks, not remembering everything exactly by the detail but he tried his best.

Taehyung sighs, "why didn't you just tell me," he looks at you.

You shrug in response, upset about how he described you, "is that how I was as a person.. borrowing money left and right?"

"No," Jungkook tweets, "no matter how many times I offer, you never took it. You only went to them because you had no choice."

Taehyung sighs to himself. If I never left her, she would've never gotten into so much life crisis. I could have been there for her all those years she's suffered... I could have made her dreams come true without financial problems..
