Melting Your Metal Heart

outburst

Taehyun pov.

I was very confused by Jackson sir and Jin hyung's behaviour at first he hugged sir. I thought that in this mansion of monsters there is someone who could help him. But the next moment he became like other people.

Jackson sir called me untrained and made me hit hyung. i instantly started to cry silently. I don't have any options here. So i complied with a heavy heart everytime he ordered me to hit hyung.

But when hyung asked for sometime just to think an answer Jackson sir started to beat him constantly. I had enough of it. So i stopped his whip when he was hitting.

I shouted to make him realise what he is doing but master suddenly shouted in between and gave him just twenty minutes. I mean it took him hours to complete the homework of one person than how can he do it in just twenty minutes.

After twenty minutes Jackson sir hugged him asked about his mistakes like a caring elder. And hyung confessed what he did. He said he today also he did some mistakes to save someone named taehyung. Well the name is very similar to mine.

After sometime of their conversations i asked who is taehyung. Hyung didn't said anything but Jackson sir suddenly said taehyung is hyung's brother and told hyung to sleep. He took my hand and left hyung's room.

He took me to guards quarter and we reached i think his room. He made me sit on his bed andd told me to wait.

"I guess you are confused by our behaviour. But it is always like this." He said making me nod at his first sentence.

"So let me make it clear to you that the taehyung about whom Jin was talking is his only brother. A real blood brother. But he is not allowed to reveal it to anyone. He can't even use a nickname or call him tae or taetae which he is longing to call him. He is living all these years seen just as friend by his own brother. Means his brother doesn't know that what is his and jin's relation. They are just friends." Jackson sir explained the relationship between hyung and taehyung guy. And continued to explain further.

"But Jin is grateful to atleast he is able to see his brother. Instead of being unable to see him because he knows that pain. He has not seen his father from the day he left the house. He hadn't even had that chance of meeting his brother too if they accidentally were not admitted in the same School." He said all this in one go and lots of emotions.

"I understand his pain but how...?" I couldn't say anything.

"No you don't. No one can." He shouted.

"I can i am also getting some guard training and i also dropped my studies. I also don't get to see my parents for many days." I tried to reason out my side.

"What you would do if at your age. I mean you are 12 right? So if anyone drag you away from your family and lock you in a pitch dark room with heavy shackles that you could barely move and make your everyday worst by some ridiculous painful trainings. And you have no control on yourself. All you can do is just obey." He said making me wordless.

"Ohh yeah you can't utter a word or complain about how much pain you are feeling or in any training or your master will increase it or any other punishment will be added. And what you you do if you are not allowed to say anything even if it is beyond your enduring capacity. All you can do is say yes master for two years straight. Don't forget he was not allowed to meet a single soul other than master kim. And master kim never talked to him. He always trained him by most painful techniques. Poor boy, he already knew how slavery works and it's rules but still master kim choose to break the fragile boy and create an emotionless slave. For the two whole years all that boy was allowed to say was yes master " At this point Jackson sir was crying his eyes in river.

"Y-you know if he had not been admitted in that school than he would still be the same emotionless slave. But i thank to all gods that he united the poor boy with his brother and didn't let his emotions die. Sometimes it creates problems as he gets into punishments but its better than to live like a robot on command." Sir's voice was wavering.

"B-but sir if know about this and feel this bad then why do you hurt him? Or why don't you help him out?" I asked the question which was popping in my mind.

"Well i am not Korean. When i was five years old i was trained by my mafia father but due to some unknown reason my father exchanged me with master kim. So i am his slave. ohh that days were worst but still i was kept in better condition and i think less pain than jin was kept. Since i was trained and master kim saw that i was very nice fighter whenever i used to oppose any slave rule or fight back my punishment he added me into guards and i knew kungfu which made me fastest learner so here I am head of guards." He said like he is living the memory.

I opened my mouth to say something but he again started to speak so i didn't said anything just kept listening to his side.

"I got some plus points and i was allowed to live a personal life. But i am still his slave and i can't do anything about it or he will take my daughter under him. As being my daughter she can also face slave life if any of the master decides it and i can't see her in that pain which i have seen in jin's eyes. Those scars and all. So i am basically to follow every order of master kim, master Namjoon and master yoongi, other friends are also included but my ji ah can be slave of anyone of these three if anything severe is found." He said that in a very fearful way making me guilty for accusing him.

"I am sorry for my outburst but it is necessary for you to know that if we don't behave with Jin like superiors or if we love or give him any sort of comfort or special treatment than it will hurt him the most. And i am not faking it. I am telling you by experience. It makes us suffer but Jin is the one who faces the most most painful things if we get caught." He explained.

"So it is necessary to behave accordingly. It has happened so now i talk to him only when i have permission. He already has too much i don't want to add more. Please don't be soft on him. In this way you can save him from many other punishments if master will think that you are strict." he pleaded further.

"I am sorry sir. But if you allow than can i also call you hyung," i asked as after knowing that in this country he has only family are just his wife, kid and Jin hyung i felt the urge to become his family.

"It's ok you can call me but only if you behave the way how it is needed with Jin. And for some days don't call him hyung. I know it will break his hope but don't worry he is very brave that he will cope with it. And you have to be much more cold and punish him on every mistake. Because master will have an eye on you and you are not allowed to do such sweet things like hugging or showing love, care or sympathy. I know i do them but it is based on how many minutes i get permission of." He took promise from me and i left his room

Before going directly to my room i went to hyung's room and saw his exhausted body on that torn out matress laying lifeless. I can't imagine how much tired he really is.

Then i moved into my room and went to my bed thinking how easy my life is. As Compared to my both hyungs specially Jin hyung.
