The clock ticked quietly in the corner of the room, each second passing like a slow, deliberate heartbeat. Y/N sat on the edge of the bed, her hands clasped together in her lap, her eyes fixed on a spot on the floor that seemed to hold her in place. The events of the day swirled in her mind like a dark storm, the image of those two lifeless bodies etched deeply into her thoughts. But she didn't let it show. Not here, not now.

Seokjin watched her from across the dining room. He could see how her shoulders were tensed and how her breath hitched slightly now and then. He knew her well enough to understand that she was trying to keep it together, to be strong, but he also knew the toll it was taking on her.

Seokjin- You should try to get some rest Y/N. It's been a long day.

Y/N- *Dazed and distant* ......

Seokjin- Y/N?

Y/N- *In deep thoughts*

Seokjin- Knock knocks missy.

Y/N- *looks up* Yes Jin. Do you need anything?

Seokjin- *Leaning to the door frame* I was calling you for some time you know? But you were lost in thoughts.

Y/N- I am sorry. I was thinking about something.

Seokjin- Stop it. I know how your brain works so stop it. Get some rest, you need it.

Y/N- Mmhhm

Seokjin- It's been a long day and you pretty much ... no you just ignored all my words. So Ms. journalist please take some rest. We need your genius brain tomorrow. Okay?

Y/N- I know. It's just... I can't stop thinking about it.

Seokjin- *Sitting beside her on the bed* Overthinking will not solve anything Y/N. Rather it will detroit your health.

Y/N- *Looking at him* What can I do now?

Seokjin- *Cresing her face* I know it's a lot. And it's not easy to stop thinking about the things that happened today. It was too much. But, My life, if you don't then it will bring your headaches back. You don't want that, do you?

Y/N- It's already hurting though. *pouts*

Seokjin- And you are telling me now? You know your migraine is terrible. *Walking to the medicine cabinet* When it started?

Y/N- The moment I opened my eyes in the police station. *low voice*

Seokjin- -_- *Done face* Seriously Y/N?

Y/N- I am sorry but the situation all happened so fast that I didn't have time.

Seokjin- Do you want to take injections then?

Y/N- YAH! JIN. I said sorry, please.

Seokjin- I'm letting you go this time, but don't do it next time. Here, take these medicines.

Y/N- Why this many?

Seokjin- It's also the medicines the doctor gave today.

Y/N- Ow! Thank you.

Seokjin- Now turn around.

Y/N- Why? *Confused*

Seokjin- Just do it Y/N. No questions.

Y/N- Umm! Okay.

Seokjin- Good. Now open some buttons from the first of your shirt.

Y/N- EHHHH! *Covering herself* WHY?

Seokjin- Do it Y/N.

Y/N- NOOOO. What are your intentions, man?

Seokjin- Just shut the f*ck up and do what I say.
