A PENDANT That United The Souls

75. ALLEGATION

Mr. HAN:- Do you know who killed your parents? Mr. KIM TAEHYUNG...

Y/N widened her eyes

Mr. HAN:- Yes, It's true.. well when you fled, he sought revenge. I empathize with your situation. But now, those beautiful eyes of yours... I will claim them....

Bang*

Taehyung swiftly strikes Han with a flower pot, rendering him unconscious.

KTH:- Y/N, are you alright? Did you sustain any injuries? Y/N! Please respond.

Y/N:- What happened to my parents?

Taehyung becomes apprehensive and hesitates.

KTH:- I had planned to tell you earlier, but...

Y/N:- Did you know about this?

KTH:- We will talk later, our mission is important now.

Y/N:- Were my parents actually murdered? It wasn't an accident?

KTH:- Y/N...

Y/N:- Despite everything, did you realize what I was going through? Why, Taehyung?

KTH:- Please try to understand, now is not the time to discuss all of this.

Y/N:- If you had let me see my mother, it could have been my final goodbye. They lost their lives because of you!

KTH:- I didn't do it...

Before Taehyung could finish, he felt a sudden sharp pain from behind. He turned, writhing in agony, as Han laughed and a piece of broken flower pot pierced his waist.

Y/N:- Taehyung!!

Han pushed Taehyung, making him collapse, and Y/N rushed to his side to remove the glass from his waist.

Y/N:- You're bleeding.

KTH:- I-I'll be fine, I just need a moment.

Mr. HAN:- Oh, just look at you, Y/N. I have never seen a more stupid girl than you. He has been tormenting you since the day you met him and yet you still care for him...

Han reaches for Y/N's hand and tries to pull her, while Taehyung grabs onto her as well. Y/N attempts to free her hand from Han, but he kicks Taehyung and forcefully pulls Y/N.

Y/N:- Han, let go of my hand...

Mr. HAN:- We don't have any personal grudges against each other, my dear. We have both suffered, and the cause is Taehyung. Let's end this...

Y/N pulls out the gun hidden in her choker and points it at Han.

Y/N:- Enough! I cannot bear to suffer any longer.

Mr. HAN:- Miss, Taehyung is the enemy of us both. Kill him not me. Shoot him like you did a year ago. He is your enemy. Your parents murdered because of him.

Taehyung struggles to his feet.

KTH:- Y/N, do what you feel is necessary. I am the one at fault, but do not let go of Han; he will betray you. If you want to kill me, then kill both of us.

Y/N's hands begin to tremble.
Tears welled up in her eyes as Y/N took a step back, gun in hand.

Y/N:- Stay back both of you. Don't come any closer. You've messed with my life. I just want to live peacefully.

Mr. HAN:- I'm sorry, Y/N. I'll leave you alone.

Y/N:- Kim Taehyung, why are you so quiet? Don't you have anything to say? Any explanations?

Taehyung stood still and met her gaze, silently acknowledging that he was the root of Y/N's biggest problem.

KTH:- I have no right to justify myself. My words won't erase your past. I've forfeited that privilege.

Y/N:- Then I won't hesitate to end you.

Mr. HAN:- Well done, Y/N! Shoot him, finish him.

Y/N confidently pulled the trigger.

Bang*

A bullet was fired from the gun but missed Taehyung. As Taehyung turned to Han, he saw Han on his knees, clutching his bleeding chest. Y/N slowly approached Han, nudging him with her foot and then placing her foot on his stomach.

Y/N:- You forgot, Han? I warned you that I learn from my mistakes. If I doubt Taehyung again, I'll lose my love and you'll win.

Y/N fired another shot at Han.

Y/N:- This is for mistreating me, for taking Taehyung from me. Bang* for ending my parents. Bang* for harassing Taehyung.

Even though the gun was out of bullets, Y/N continued to press the trigger.

Y/N:- Die! Go to hell!

Taehyung grabbed Y/N's hand.

KTH:- Calm down, Y/N! He's dead! He's dead!

Y/N:- Huh?

KTH:- Yes, look at him, he's dead.

Y/N let go of the gun and dropped to her knees, tears streaming down her face. Taehyung embraced her tightly and reassured her.

KTH:- It's okay, everything's fine. It's over now. We succeeded.

Y/N:- Hic* I can't handle this. Hic* Please just leave me alone. I'm a killer now. I don't want to be like this.

KTH:- You did nothing wrong, Y/N. It was self-defense.

Y/N:- I'm not a killer like you and Jimin. Jimin? Where is he?

Taehyung and Y/N rushed to find Jimin among the bodies in the hallway.

Y/N:- Jimin! Oh my god, where is he? What do I tell Daisy?

Taehyung spotted Jimin in a corner, injured and exhausted.

JIMIN:- All dead, boss. Not one survived. I made sure of it.

KTH:- You're such an idiot.

Y/N:- Jimin, are you okay? Let's get you to the hospital.

JIMIN:- I'm fine, Y/N. Just need some time to recover.

Taehyung helped Jimin into the car and drove them to his penthouse where Dr. Claudia treated both of them. Throughout the ordeal, Y/N took excellent care of them.
