Yoongi pushes Jimin backwards and kicks one of the men on the abdomen.

Jimin exclaims, 'Hyung!'

Yoongi twists the hand of one of the men and pushes him to the ground.

Jimin starts to breathe heavily as he panics.

Yoongi tries to grab something from the suit jacket but fails as one of the men slits Yoongi's left upper arm with a knife.

Jimin screams upon noticing blood flow over Yoongi's suit jacket.

A man punches Yoongi's nose; he starts to bleed. Yoongi manages to grab his pistol out of his jacket with his right hand and shoots the man on his abdomen; he falls to the floor.

Yoongi manages to shoot another man on his leg. The other two men get into a car and drive away.

Yoongi hisses and keeps his pistol in his jacket. He turns around and spots Jimin frozen at where he is standing—tears roll down his eyes.

Yoongi notices people staring at him. He clicks his tongue and holds his left arm. He walks to Jimin and holds his hand.

Yoongi squeezes Jimin's hand and says, 'Honey, please... You can't go through a breakdown right now.'

Jimin blinks letting the tears in his eyes fall. He breathes deeply and gazes at Yoongi.

Jimin gulps nervously upon noticing blood flow down Yoongi's upper arm. He takes off his jacket and T-shirt. He wears his jacket and ties the T-shirt around Yoongi's bleeding upper arm.

Yoongi hisses and says, 'Go sit in the car.'

Jimin shakes his head in disagreement.

Yoongi clicks his tongue and grabs his phone from his trousers pocket. He makes a call to someone.

'Hello, Jung Hoseok?'

'In front of Hotel Diamonds. Four of them. Got two of them. Shot.'

'Aye. Be quick.'

'He's fine. I'll bring him home soon.'

Yoongi hangs up and slides his phone into his pocket. He holds Jimin's hand and walks to the parking area.

Yoongi unlocks the car and gets in. He fastens his seatbelt up in a hurry and Jimin follows him. He starts the engine and begins to drive.

Jimin whimpers and starts to scratch his thighs over his trousers. Yoongi manages to reach Jimin's hand and stops his from scratching further.

Jimin breathes deeply and stops scratching his thighs. He looks away from Yoongi and sheds tears. Yoongi lets go of Jimin's hand and holds the gear.

Shortly, Yoongi and Jimin are walking into the mansion. Everybody around looks at Jimin and he hides his revealing body with the suit jacket.

Yoongi says, 'I'll go get my wound dressed.'

Jimin looks at Yoongi with a clueless look on his face.

Yoongi asks, 'Should I take you to your room?'

Jimin stands still without a word to Yoongi.

Yoongi holds Jimin's hand and begins to walk to his room. He takes Jimin to his room and makes him sit on the bed.

Mr Park rushes to Jimin's room and exclaims, 'Park Jimin!'

Jimin flinches and stands up. He gulps nervously as Mr Park steps closer to him.

Mr Park holds Jimin by his shoulders and asks, 'Are you okay?'

Jimin nods once in response.

Mr Park says, 'Good.' and lets go of Jimin. He turns to look at Yoongi and asks, 'Are you all right?'

Yoongi answers, 'Yes, sir.' and bows to Mr Park.

Mr Park says, 'Go get your wounds dressed. You can stay off work until you recover. Come back to the mansion after recovering.'
Yoongi says, 'Sir.'
Mr Park says, 'And good job, Min Yoongi.'

Yoongi bows to Mr Park and spares a brief glance at Jimin. He bows to Jimin and walks out of the room.

Shortly, Yoongi is sitting on a chair wearing suit trousers. A lady in her 50s is suturing the cut on his arm. He clenches his jaw and sits still.

She says, 'You'll be fine. Don't worry.'
He says, 'Thank you, Doctor-nim.'
She says, 'You'll have to take medicines for a few days. You're not supposed to drink or smoke until the medicines get over.'
He says, 'I understand.'

Mr Park is standing in Jimin's room. A man in his 30s stands in front of the room and bows to Mr Park.

Mr Park says, 'This is your new bodyguard.'

Jimin sniffles and says, 'I don't want any bodyguard.'

Mr Park says, 'You almost got yourself killed today, bastard. Shut the fuck up.'
Jimin says, 'I won't step out of the mansion.'
Mr Park says, 'It doesn't matter.'

Jimin says, 'Father, please.'
Mr Park says, 'Try to understand the situation, Park Jimin.'
Jimin exclaims, 'I don't care if I fucking die! Let me be!'

Mr Park slaps Jimin and shouts, 'Son of a bitch! You're not dying yet! Do you fucking hear me?'

Jimin stands still without a word.

Mr Park walks out of the room and pats the new bodyguard's left shoulder once. He bows to Mr Park and the latter walks off.

Jimin walks to the door.

The bodyguard bows to Jimin and says, 'Hello, Jimin-nim. I'm Jung Hyun-Jin.'

Jimin says, 'All right. Whatever your name is, you gotta stay outside.' and slams the door leaving Hyun-Jin to flinch.

Jimin walks to the couch and takes off his jacket. He puts it on the couch and steps to the bed. He falls to the bed and curls up as he begins to sob silently.

He whispers, 'Baby... I'm so sorry.' and whimpers.
