Chapter 72

There have been plenty of times in your life when you have found yourself astonished either by things you would see or hear however all those times seemed to fade on impact when they came to be compared to what Mrs Park had just uttered to you.

Silence engulfed the room as you just stared at her with wide eyes and a slightly open mouth, shocked because her version didn't sound like any kind of saving to you. This was Jimin's worst nightmare. From what you know, he has been suffering for so long with his personality trying to maintain himself and not get overthrowned from his consciousness. Yet, here his mother stood, talking about saving him, by keeping alive only his body.

"I know what you may be thinking "She broke the silence as she stared at you with an unwavering and confident gaze. "However you should be aware by now that you can't back out. Now you know too much. "

The realisation hit you as she spoke making you understand why she had started telling you all these things, to begin with. It was a trap to ensure you would be working for her after this because simply you would have no choice. It's not like you could unhear all this information and if you were to reject cooperating with her, most likely that would not end up being a wise choice for your life. To not mention that she had also threatened you with the safety of your sister, which most likely was still at stake, depending on your reply. 

"There has to be some other way. I refuse to help you in such a thing!" You snapped at her despite all the fear and anxious thoughts that were circling in your mind, making your breathing tight and heavy. Your fists were gathered by the sides of your body as blood was rushing through your veins out of anger and unfairness. Why, just why did it have to be like this? Why did you have to be in such a spot to begin with?

"You think I haven't tried to find other ways? "She scolded at your ridiculous assumption and rolled her eyes. " Even if I kill all the agents that are after him, there will remain the higher-ups. And let's say I kill those too. Even the Minister of Defense, till the president of this country itself, do you think anything will change? This is a file that can't be deleted from the National Services secret archive. No matter who comes after and sits in those positions of power, they are going to want the information P3 holds onto. He will never be free to live so he has to give them that information and be through with it!"

"They will kill him! And your alternative is no better! He will still die!"

" No! " She raised her voice for the first time before you "I won't lose my son! After that medicine, he won't remember how to talk or walk. He will be like an infant. It's a total brain reset. But I am his mother. I will raise him again from scratch I will make him the Jimin he is now slowly with time. And this time I will do it right. Without his father putting him in trouble with any unnecessary secret information. No matter how many years it will take to make him a functional human again. I will never give up on my son! Do you hear me?"

You stared at her as she had raised a finger towards you, speaking with passion and a certain hopelessness flickering in her orbs that made you think of her as a crazy woman ... Yet she seemed like a mother. A mother driven to madness out of desperation to save something from her son.

The air felt like it was forming a cord and getting tied around your throat while her words were sinking further and further into your mind. Like a disease, that hopelessness that remained in her gaze seemed to have travelled to you, crawling into your veins and leaving bruises in its path that you couldn't shake. For it was true. No matter how much you wanted to think that you and him would make it out of this safe and sound, it was true. You were both two individuals without power against many who hold more than enough power to erase you from existence and have no one ever wonder where you have gone.
