Chapter 38

Days had turned into weeks, and Jimin's life had taken a turn for the better.

The weight of his past troubles had begun to lift, and he was finally experiencing the joys of a more normal high school life.

However, on this particular day during lunch break, Jimin found himself once again walking the familiar corridors of school.

He had decided to take a break from the cafeteria and enjoy a solitary walk. But as he made his way through the dimly lit corridor, a quiet voice suddenly called out his name.

"Jimin."

Startled, he turned to see Wonwoo standing in a quiet corner, his presence sending a shiver down Jimin's spine.

Jimin hesitated but walked over to him, his instincts telling him that something was amiss.

"Y-yes, sunbaenim?" Jimin asked, his voice trembling slightly.

Wonwoo, who had seemingly changed for the better since his suspension, looked at Jimin with a strange expression.

"Jimin, I need to tell you something. It's about Suga."

Jimin's heart skipped a beat. "Yoongi hyung? What about him?"

Wonwoo leaned in closer, his voice barely above a whisper. "He's waiting for you on the third floor. He asked me to inform you."

Jimin surprisingly scoffed, his suspicions resurfacing.

"do you think I'm that gullible? I've been observing you, and I know you've been trying to manipulate me, pretending to have changed."

Wonwoo's smirk widened, and he didn't deny Jimin's accusation. "Oh, so you knew, huh?"

Before Jimin could react, Wonwoo's hand shot out, grabbing him by the throat with a strength that took Jimin by surprise.

Panic surged through Jimin as he gasped for breath, unable to break free from Wonwoo's unyielding grip.

Wonwoo's voice, chillingly calm, whispered into Jimin's ear, "Now, I don't have to act anymore."

The corridor seemed to close in on Jimin as darkness threatened to swallow him whole.

He struggled, his vision growing blurry, and realized that the demons of his past had not truly let go of him.

And now, it appeared that Wonwoo was one of those demons, wearing a mask of deception that had finally slipped away, revealing his true, malevolent intentions.

Yoongi entered the bustling cafeteria, his eyes scanning the tables for any sign of Jimin.

His worry deepened as he noticed that Jimin's usual seat was empty, and a sense of unease began to creep over him. Something wasn't right.

He turned to Jin, who was sitting beside him, and asked, "Hey, Jin, have you seen Jimin? He's not here."

Jin furrowed his brows in confusion. "Jimin? I thought he went out to look for you."

A chill ran down Yoongi's spine at Jin's words. Jimin had gone looking for him, but they hadn't crossed paths. The feeling of unease grew into full-blown anxiety, and he couldn't shake the sense that something was terribly wrong.

Just then, his phone rang, and Yoongi's heart skipped a beat when he saw the caller ID: Wonwoo.

Anger surged through him, but he couldn't afford to ignore the call, not when it might be related to Jimin's whereabouts.

He answered the call with a mix of frustration and concern. "What do you want, Wonwoo?"

Wonwoo's voice, smooth and eerily calm, responded, "Suga, always in such a rush. I thought we could have a little chat."
