A few days later.

"Hello?", Cheng said.

"I got the million dollars in my bank account", William said.

"As I promised", Cheng smiled.

"Yeah, as you promised. To get you out"

"Just make sure your man is not caught. Otherwise you'll end up in jail. And you just got out"

"So, did you tell him the real revenge plan?"

"Pfft, no obviously. I just made something up"

"Hmm. What'll you do till my man comes?"

"Drain my supplier's supplies dry"

William chuckled. "Right" Cheng smirked as he ended the call. He looked at Weng, who was asleep. Cheng transferred a few more million dollars to his own account and put the phone back in the hole in the wall. He crumpled the paper on which Weng had written the account number and password, and dropped it in the toilet, flushing it away.

"Revenge is on it's way, Kim Taehyung"

.........

The next day.

A policeman came to open the doors to let the prisoners out for daily exercise in the yard. As the prisoners shuffled out in the yard, a policeman caught Cheng's eye.

He was hand signalling Cheng by standing at the end of the yard, alone. That's what Willian and he had agreed on.


The policemen came towards Cheng and grabbed his arm with force. "What the-", Cheng started.

"Don't say a word", he whispered into Cheng's ear.

They slowly made their way out of the yard. "Cheng!", Weng shouted from the yard. Cheng looked back. "Where are you going?" Cheng gritted his teeth. This man would have him caught.

As he turned his head forward, he collided with an officer. "Where're you taking him?", he asked the policeman beside Cheng. He saluted. "Sir! The head officer has called this prisoner for inspection", he lied. Inspection was going since yesterday, so it was a believable lie.

The officer stared at them for a moment, the nodded, going his own way. They sighed with relief, but quickly walked off the yard and into the hall. "What's the plan now?", Cheng whispered. There were no policemen in sight for a while.

"I've disabled the officer at the gates. We'll quietly make our way from there. The security cameras will catch us, but we have a head start", the man said. Cheng nodded.

They reached the gates, where the officer was knocked out cold. Cheng whistled in amusement. They kept their heads down as the opened the gates, pressing a button. Cheng could hear the commotion inside the yard. They must've known he was missing by now.

"Quickly, run", the man said, and they both bolted into a run. Cheng smirked. Weng must be so so confused and pissed.

They didn't look back as the crossed streets.

.........

The seven were having their usual dinner at Sunshine's.

"...so, yeah. I just kissed Mary", Hoseok said. "That's cute", Yoongi said. "That's good for you. You haven't had a girlfriend since long", Jin said, eating his food.

"You're the only straight per-", Jungkook quickly closed his mouth.

Yoongi looked at Jungkook, puzzled.

Jungkook met Taehyung's eye, who looked at Jimin. "So, baby, how was your day?", Jimin said, turning to Yoongi. "Usual stuff. I just wanna sleep as soon as we get home", Yoongi shrugged. "Really? Don't you wanna play with me first?", Jimin teased.

They all chuckled. "Get a room, you two!", Taehyung said.

Taehyung's phone beeped. It was a message from a bar.

"Hey, guys. I'm invited to the ten year anniversary party of Star Bar", he told the others. "What? That's awesome", Namjoon said. "Wow, when is that?", Jungkook asked. "Day after tomorrow. Should I attend?", Taehyung said.

"Obviously. There could be paparazzi, for all we know", Jimin said.

"And it'll be good for your already perfect image. You're friends with the owner, right?", Jin said.

"I wouldn't say friends exactly. We're just acquaintances", Taehyung said.

"Then you should go. Have some fun. Take Kook with you. He hasn't been to a bar in ages", Yoongi chuckled.

"Yeah, he can get an outing too", Hoseok said.

Jungkook chuckled. "Alright" Taehyung and Jungkook looked at each other and smiled.

They were already planning to go together.

.........

Cheng pulled his hood over his head and shoved his hands down his jean pockets, as he walked beside William along the subway track.

"Is the plan working?", William asked.

"Of course it is. The owner of Star Bar is my cousin, he helps me all the time"

"Doesn't Taehyung know he's your cousin?"

"Nope, he never asked and I never told him"

"So, are you sure it's gonna be stormy on that day?"

"The weather forecast never lies. And stop fucking asking me things", Cheng said.
