"They stole the name," Jimin said one lazy Saturday, only a week after Suzu got attacked. She didn't have to wear the wrapping but anytime she looked down at her hand it was sickening and not only for her.
Everyone around seemed to be affected by it too, even Taehyung. He's only seen her once since the incident and though Suzu knew she shouldn't care, she did. It made her feel guilty since he was with Yunha but even Yunha seemed on edge about something.
Suzu read the article Jimin was showing her on his phone.
"Crime is at an all time high this month with the recent attacks in __ neighborhood. Authorities are looking into a possible serial attacker with two victims ending in death and one seriously injured. The attacker has been nicknamed 'Ghostface' due to their anonymous attacks and his choice in wardrobe. Dressed in all black with a Halloween mask of what appears to be a ghost face, authorities are urging any witness to come forward with more information. At this moment the city is doing everything they can to end this tirade of terror and a curfew has now been set at 10:00pm. Please remain indoors once in curfew and students around the east campus of __ University keep aware of surroundings."
Suzu couldn't even focus on the article as she kept looking to Yunha who looked visibly upset and exhausted. She called out to her, "What's wrong?"
"Huh?" Yunha asked looking caught off guard as she snapped out of her own thoughts. Everyone looked to her now waiting for her to say something. "Nothing, just tired."
"How's it going with your boyfriend?" Jia asked about Taehyung trying to keep the clear distaste from him out of her tone. Yunha released a deep sigh, "It's going okay. I think he's stressed."
"Why? Did something happen?" Suzu asked more alarmed now. If Taehyung did anything to hurt Yunha verbally or mentally she needed to know now.
She shook her head, "Not necessarily? I mean, He's been on edge all week and we've just been having small arguments here and there about practically anything."
Jimin huffed in annoyance, "You've only been dating for, like, two months. Isn't it too early to be having fights often? Isn't that, like, a bad sign?"
"He's just stressed about work. Someone took over leadership for an exhibit that was supposed to take place at the museum and I guess he's been working on it for months," Yunha explained, or made excuses. Suzu knew all about his job as Art Curator. When they dated Taehying was still a University, three years her senior and he had been preparing for an internship at the local museum for once he graduated. Now he's been hired full time and makes a decent amount of money off it.
Part of her was proud that he'd gone as far as to have his dream job, the other part felt guilty for still caring. Except, if she was honest, even when he'd have to create exhibits he never took his anger out on her. It was quite contrary actually. He'd come over after a long day and all he'd want is to be pampered. He'd ask Suzu to take a bath with him where he'd hold her so he wouldn't be as stressed. He would get even more touchy looking for some comfort that could ease his nerves. He never once got stressed to the point where they'd argue.
That either meant he wasn't as comfortable around Yunha yet to rely on her. Or that work wasn't the reason he was stressed.
When Suzu was ready to leave she was surprised when Yunha asked to tag along, "Can you drop me off at Tae's? I'll tell you the address."
"Um, sure," Suzu reluctantly agreed and the two left.
"This is the building," Yunha said showing her the phone. Suzu knew it all to well, clearly he still lived at the same place. She cleared her throat awkwardly, "I think I know the place. I don't need the address."
"Okay, thanks for the ride."
When Yunha called Taehyung asking him to let her up he already sounded irritated. She's not sure what's up with him but he clearly hasn't been himself lately. Though, if she's honest, she's not sure what he's like when he's himself. They've been together for about two months and still, she feels like he's not open with her.
"Hey," Taehyung said plainly as she wrapped her arms around his midsection when he opened the door. He patted her side to make her let go and let her inside. He couldn't help but sigh as she started going on a rant of what she did today.
"Who drove you here?" He asked as he left into his bedroom for a moment, opening a drawer up and shoving an old picture of Suzu inside it. Yes, he still had photos of her at his place. Yes, he hid them whenever Yunha came over even if he was curious to see how she'd react if she saw them. The only reason he puts them away is not because it'll hurt his girlfriend.
It's because he knew that if she found out that he was in love with Suzu... in the past, then it'd start problems between them two and he couldn't hurt Suzu like that. He knows how much she values the few friends she's made since moving here.
"Suzu," Yunha said as she threw herself on his bed. His jaw clenched when his pillows moved out of the order he put them in. To be honest, he just wanted to be alone but of course his stupid girlfriend couldn't get the hint.
He avoided his bed moving to sit on his desk chair across from Yunha as he debated asking the question on his mind or not. "How's Suzu?" He asked. He liked the idea that Suzu remembered his address and for some reason that left a rush in his veins. He was anxious though and that's why he's yet to see her since the accident. He can't bring himself to see her hand.
"She's good, I think. I don't know? Suzu doesn't really talk about things," Yunha said with a shrug, before a smirk appeared on her face beginning to move off the bed. Taehyung pretended to be distracted on his phone hoping to ask her for more information.
She came around to him, hands on his thighs before trying to sit on his lap. He couldn't hold back the roll of his eyes as he moved his phone to the side. Yunha smiled, "Wanna have sex?"
"Is that all you think about?" Taehyung asked bitterly, "I'm asking about your friend who was attacked and all you're thinking about is fucking?"
"Don't you care about her at all?" He kept going, his patience running thin with Yunha lately. She was just annoying, he doesn't care to explain. Yunha's expression saddened, suddenly embarrassed with herself. He was right. Right? It was a week ago and clearly Suzu wasn't thinking about it but Yunha hasn't really felt as bothered by it as the others.
He huffed in annoyance at her broken puppy expression, "Get off me. I'm gonna shower."
"Are you, like, mad at me or something?" Yunha asked clearly dejected when Taehyung basically pushed her off his lap. With his back to her gathering his clothes she missed the way in annoyance.
"Of course not honey," he forced a smile on his face as he turned back to her, "I'm just really stressed right now."
"Oh okay, is there anything I can do?" She asked standing up. He thought about it for a moment. If he kept being mean he'd lose Yunha and he needed her. Maybe if he gave in and had sex with her like she wanted, she'd stop complaining.
Besides, nobody ever said he has to think about her when they fuck.
"Want to get in the shower with me?"
