Heartless

{19}

It seems as if the universe was spinning in the right direction lately. Everything went according to plan and as Jimin took the time to search through the information on the hard drive, it was quite convenient that in only two weeks, the annual gala would take place, giving the perfect opportunity to publicly execute their target.

The satisfied smirk on his plump lips was going to be difficult to wipe off. This was meant to be, and once he was notified the rest of his men came over from Russia, he had more than enough to start business here in New York and prepare for war if that's what had to happen.

Taking out Min-Su would be easy, he already had the schematics for the building so he could position his men and take out the guards. And there was a perfect elevated floor that wasn't ever used except for aesthetic purposes in the main ball room. Bingo. That was the perfect angle to set up a sniper rifle and take out the mafia boss without getting caught and having more than one ensured escape route.

Every piece of the puzzle was coming together quite nicely, so once he thoroughly planned out everything, he called a meeting in his office with Runa, Jungkook, Dong-Wook, and their newest addition Yoongi who showed up only five minutes late and got the side eye from the consigliere.

But once everyone has their attention on him, he explains why Jungkook would be the perfect man for the job. His skill set was impressive considering the years of training and experience he's had as a hitman, and oh the irony. Runa seems to like the idea, and just one hopeful smile from her makes Jungkook agree.

There was no better man to do the honors. He had the most accurate shot out of everyone and seeing as he had the most knowledge of using sniper rifles and disassembling them quick enough to escape, he was the most logical option. Once Jimin explains every step as to what happens and everyone's key role, he dismisses them.

Although they had plenty of time, they needed to make sure this was going to happen no matter what. No cancellations, no surprise visits, nothing could go wrong or else they might not have this perfect opportunity again and Min-Su's death will end up messy and causing more chaos than it originally would.

Since Jimin had finished making a few calls, he sat in his chair and leaned his head back, taking a moment to let everything soak in and his sister popped into mind. Just the thought of having her here by his side after many years of patience and hard work made a heartwarming smile grace his lips. Then, like the genius he is, he gets the perfect idea.

As he walks down the hall to her room with a pep in his step, he smooths down his favorite purple suit that he intentionally just changed into and knocks upon her door thrice.

"Runa? Are you busy?", he calls out, hoping he wasn't interrupting important business.

When he hears her feet pad against the floor and the door swings open to reveal her relaxed expression, he sighs in relief, "What's up?"

"I was wondering if maybe you'd like to go to the mall with me. I need to pick out a new suit for the gala and I'd like for you to come with me so I could buy your things as well."

The consideration makes her melt inside and she grins, intrigued by the gesture, "I'm not busy and that sounds like a great idea. Just let me get-"

Jimin holds up his hand to stop her from making her way to Jungkook's room next door and he leans down to speak lowly, "How about just you and I go out? Hm? I'll have men watching us nearby but you won't even notice they're there."

Immediately her expression morphs into skepticism because she knows Jungkook would have an absolute fit if he knew she left anywhere without him, especially because his duty was to be by her side always.
