It's been a week of blissful routine for YN and Namjoon, with flirtatious good mornings and kisses, and their project nearing completion.
But suddenly, Namjoon's phone rings. He picks up, and his face pales as he listens to the voice on the other end.
Doctor: "Mr. Kim, I'm sorry to inform you that your father passed away this morning."
Namjoon drops the phone, his body trembling. YN rushes to his side, alarmed.
YN:(worried) "Namjoon, what's wrong?"
Namjoon:(voice breaking) "My father... he's gone."
He collapses into YN's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. The office falls silent, and everyone gathers around, their eyes filled with tears.
Jimin: (teary-eyed) "Namjoon, we're here for you. Stay strong."
Hoseok: (trying to comfort) "It's okay to cry. We're all here with you."
Namjoon :" my dad hoseok...."
The Funeral
The funeral is a somber affair. Namjoon stands by his father's grave, his tears unending, his guilt palpable.
Namjoon: (crying) "I should've been there for him... It's my fault."
YN holds him tightly, tears streaming down her face.
YN:"No, Namjoon. It's not your fault. You did everything you could."
They all take turns comforting him, but Namjoon is inconsolable. As the ceremony concludes and everyone begins to leave but Namjoon suddenly excuses himself
Namjoon:"You all go ahead. I need a moment alone."
As the group leaves, thinking Namjoon needs more time at the grave, Namjoon spots someone in the distance. His eyes narrow, and he excuses himself from the group, running towards the figure with a mix of rage and determination.
At night
It's night and Namjoon hasn't returned home. Everyone is tense, fearing the worst.
Hoseok: "It's not like Namjoon to disappear like this. He seemed different after the funeral."
Jimin: "He's sad , Hoseok. It's understandable."
YN:"No, it could be more than that. His father's death might trigger his anger personality, the shadow. Think about why he suddenly excused himself."
Hoseok:"You think he's... changed?"
YN: "Yes. And if that's the case, we need to find him before he hurts himself or someone else."
Hoseok and Jimin prepare to search for Namjoon, but YN insists on coming along.
YN: "I'm coming with you. I can help him."
Hoseok: "YN, it's dangerous. If he's not himself..."
YN: "I don't care. He needs me, and I can handle him. Please."
Jimin and Hoseok exchange worried glances but eventually agree.
Jimin: "Alright. Let's go. We need to find him before it's too late."
They head towards the forest, knowing it's where Namjoon often goes when his darker side takes over.
In the forest
They reach the edge of the forest, the darkness enveloping them as they move forward. Their flashlights flicker, casting eerie shadows.
YN: (whispering) "Namjoon! Where are you?"
They push deeper into the forest, the silence pressing down on them.
Suddenly, a piercing scream shatters the quiet, echoing through the trees. They freeze, exchanging alarmed glances, and without a word, they follow the sound.
They arrive at an abandoned house hidden within the dense foliage, its decrepit facade a stark contrast to the natural beauty surrounding it. Cautiously, they approach, the screams growing louder with each step.
As they step inside, they are met with a chilling sight. Namjoon stands before them, drenched in blood, a knife clutched tightly in his hand. Before him sits a woman tied to a chair, her face contorted in fear.
Hoseok: "That's... that's Namjoon's mother."
Namjoon's eyes are wild, consumed by a fury they've never seen before. He advances on the woman, his voice filled with rage and anguish.
Namjoon: (shouting) "Why did you betray us?! Why did you destroy our family?...WHYYYYY?
With each word, he stab the knife into her, his movements frenzied and unrelenting.
YN:(shocked) "Namjoon, stop!"
She rushes forward, desperation in her voice, but it's too late. In his blind rage, Namjoon turns towards her, and STABBED her.
YN's world spins as pain sears through her body. She collapses to the ground, her vision blurring as darkness encroaches.
YN: (weakly) "Nam...joon..."
But there's no response, no remorse in his eyes. With a final effort, YN closes her eyes, the world fading into nothingness as her consciousness slips away.
