42 | Right, Brother?

I wasn't gonna be nice this time.

I didn't want to think about anything. I wanted it done and gone. I wanted all of this to be over.

Today I brought along Chan. Changbin ditched me for wedding planning, I didn't even know he was interested in the planning process and was gonna leave it up to Felix but no, anything to get out of work I guess.

I shake my head and let out a sigh looking to Chan who chuckles "Looks like he still doesn't want to talk"

We both look back to the male who wasn't sitting in a chair in the middle of the room like other times—this time he was hanging by his hands in the middle of the room, feet barely grazing the floor.

He was off today, Jae wasn't talking at all. Even after my continuous yells and threats or Chan grazing the tip of the blade along his pale skin. Nothing. He just stared at the ground, whimpering lowly at the harsh treatment. He didn't joke around or try to work my nerve.

"Do I just kill him?" I whisper, looking at Chan who was still looking at the bloody male.

Shaking his head, he says "No, I think we still need him"

"He ain't saying anything and honestly he's becoming a burden" I whisper-shout.

Chan looks at me "But he knows a lot"

I shake my head "No he doesn't—"

"Your right" The bloody male in the center of the room finally said, speaking up in a hoarse voice. We look at him and he looks up. "I don't know everything... or anything important right now"

"Tell us what you do know," Chan says, "That's all we asked and you are the one refusing to say!"

Jae looks down briefly and nods "Right"

"That's all?" I scoff, walking up to him and grabbing his face harshly to look at me "That's all you have to fucking say?!?"

Something flickered in Jae's eyes, sadness maybe? I wasn't sure because he gave me a sad smile and said something I didn't expect.

"You look just like her" He whispered and my hands fell numb along my sides as I stare at him.

"What?" I was almost afraid of my voice as I wasn't sure what was happening. Jae's eyes started to grow watery as he chuckles. "What did you say?"

"You have a lot to figure out Jisung, I want to help you but I can't"

"Because you don't know shit! That's why you can't help me" I spat

Jae shook his head "No, it's because you killed my brother" I stiffen up and he stares at me "But luckily I have another" He smiled at me but I wasn't sure if it was real. "Right, brother?"

I didn't notice myself stepping back but I did, hesitantly I look at Chan who is also confused, and looked at me. I look back to Jae "Don't call me that, I'm not your brother or your friend"

Jae nods and looks down "I'm done talking"

I look at Chan and he motions to the door, telling me to step outside. I look at Jae briefly and his words roamed my head as I walk out of the room.

"What was that?" Chan asks as I close the door behind me

Shrugging I said, "I have no idea" I look down and shake my head "He's got to be joking though, right?" I look up and Chan looks at me weirdly. "Right?"

Chan inhales sharply "Yeah, it's probably just a joke" He puts his hands on my shoulder, giving it a small squeeze. "Im gonna update Changbin and Tony"
