Chapter 55

As the sun began to cast its early morning glow through the curtains of Wonwoo's modest apartment, he awoke with his usual routine.

The first order of business was to reach for the pack of cigarettes resting on his nightstand.

He fumbled for a lighter, struck it, and took a long drag, the nicotine offering a brief respite from the worries of the world.

Wonwoo padded across the room in his bare feet, navigating the maze of discarded clothing to reach the fridge.

A half-empty carton of milk and a few cold slices of pizza were his only companions as he contemplated breakfast.

But just as his fingers grazed the fridge handle, the doorbell rang.

Startled, Wonwoo hastily stubbed out his cigarette in an ashtray. His heart raced as he made his way to the door, wondering who could be visiting him so early in the morning.

Upon swinging open the door, he was met with an unexpected sight.

Two uniformed police officers stood before him, their expressions stern and unyielding.

Wonwoo couldn't hide his confusion as he stammered, "What's the matter, officers?"

The taller of the two officers stepped forward, a somber look in his eyes.

"Mr. Hwang Wonwoo, you've been accused of bullying and sexual assault. We have a warrant for your arrest."

Wonwoo's eyes widened in shock. He was unable to comprehend the gravity of the situation as they handcuffed him and led him away from his apartment.

As they arrived at the police station, Wonwoo's mind raced with disbelief.

He continuously asserted his innocence, each protest growing more desperate.

To his astonishment, he spotted his friends sitting together, their expressions filled with a mixture of concern and shock.

Their presence only deepened his sense of dread.

Then, he noticed Yoongi, sitting alone with a stern and unreadable expression.

The police officer in charge, Detective Kim, showed Wonwoo the evidence compiled against him.

Text messages, witness statements, and photos that left no room for doubt.

Wonwoo's shock turned to guilt as he realized that he and his friends were now caught in a web of their own making.

Before the police could take any further action, a female voice cut through the tension in the room.

Eunhee entered with a determined expression.

She stepped forward and declared,
"I was a part of this crime too, and I deserve the punishment."

Wonwoo's world had turned upside down in a matter of hours. As the weight of their actions pressed upon him, he couldn't help but wonder how it had all come to this.

As the crushing weight of the evidence and accusations bore down on him, Wonwoo's desperation became palpable.

He realized that his career, reputation, and freedom were all hanging by a thread, and the only person who could potentially help him was Yoongi.

Wonwoo's ran towards Yoongi and pleaded "S-suga, please help me, I-i am sorry, I made a mistake please help me.."

The room seemed to hold its breath as Yoongi, with a heavy sigh, nodded reluctantly.

"Okay," he muttered, his voice low and filled with conflicted emotion.

"Let's make a deal.
You give me my Jimin back, and I'll do what I can to save you from getting jailed."

Wonwoo's heart sank at Yoongi's words.

He knew that Jimin had been dear to Yoongi, and his loss had left a void that could never be filled.

But the realization of Jimin's death and Yoongi's grief made the situation even more dire.

Wonwoo, tears in his eyes, continued to plead for help, unable to fathom the consequences of his actions.

His desperation grew unbearable, and in his anguish, he reached out to Yoongi. But before he could utter another word, Yoongi's mood shifted dramatically.

In an unexpected and sudden move, Yoongi grabbed Wonwoo by the collar, his expression twisted with anger and disgust.

Without warning, he delivered a harsh punch to Wonwoo's face. The force of the blow sent Wonwoo reeling, blood trickling from his broken nose.

Yoongi's voice, filled with rage, cut through the chaos of the room.

"Jimin was pleading for you to stop too, you sick bastard!" he shouted.

With a seething anger, he struck Wonwoo again, the violence of the blow causing a painful throbbing in Wonwoo's jaw.

Before Yoongi could unleash further retribution, the police officers swiftly intervened, forcibly separating the two.

One of the officers grabbed Wonwoo and, with stern faces, led him away, locking him in a cold, unforgiving cell.

Alongside him were his friends, who were now his co-conspirators in the eyes of the law, and Eunhee, the unexpected accomplice.

As the cell door clanged shut, Wonwoo was left to confront the harsh reality of his actions, the weight of his guilt, and the knowledge that he had lost not only his freedom but also the trust of those who had once been his closest allies.
