Why did you made me this way?

(No One's POV)

"We have to go as fast as possible," Jihoon said to Soonyoung, who was driving the bike with Jihoon sitting right behind him.

"Where are the others?" Soonyoung asked, trying to focus on the road at high speed.
"They're stuck in traffic, so we have to go by ourselves," Jihoon shouted, focusing on his tablet and monitoring Mingyu's location.

The moment they both received Mingyu's message, they started to panic.

"That's the building," Jihoon said as Soonyoung slowed his bike a little distance away. Soon after, Jihoon spotted Mingyu's phone, which was most likely thrown by him, Jihoon assumed.

Both of them took out their guns, covered each side, and looked at each other, counting 1, 2, 3 before they barged in.

"FBI, hands up!" Jihoon shouted, pointing his gun at no one. They walked inside the building, expecting whatever threat awaited them.

"Here!" They heard a familiar voice and turned around, aiming their guns.

"Mingyu!" Soonyoung sighed with relief upon seeing his friend alive. Both of them ran towards him and hugged him tightly.

"I thought you were dead," Jihoon said, his voice muffled.

"Oh my god, the Lee Jihoon getting sentimental for me?" Mingyu tried to lighten the mood.

"But the way you just messaged 'danger' got us scared," Soonyoung said.

"I was late..." Mingyu looked to the side. When Soonyoung and Jihoon saw where Mingyu was looking, they gasped at the sight of a body with a white mask on top of it. They ran towards the body, removed the mask, and their assumptions were confirmed: it was Minsung.

"Shit, they got another one. Mingyu, what exactly happened here?" Soonyoung asked Mingyu, who seemed lost in his thoughts.

"I heard some loud screams here. When I entered the building, it was pure silence. I thought they had seen me, so I messaged you guys. But when I looked around the building, Minsung was already dead," Mingyu narrated, as Soonyoung and Jihoon examined the body.

"I assume he was beaten before someone brutally slashed his throat," Jihoon said, and Mingyu flinched a bit.

"Mingyu, don't blame yourself. We can't save everyone. We tried our best, but it was harder this time with everyone against us," Jihoon said sympathetically.

"Our team will be here soon. Mingyu, you better leave. We will tell the others that we found him," Soonyoung explained. Mingyu nodded and left, looking at Minsung for the last time.

Mingyu reached his home, his mind in turmoil. He took off his clothes and headed to the shower, letting the cold water run over his bare body as he tried to rethink what had happened.

"Xiumin, as in Kim Xiumin? YOU ARE SAYING MY FATHER IS INVOLVED IN THIS, WONWOO? YOU ARE SAYING BULLSHIT!" Mingyu snapped back.

Wonwoo pulled his collar down, showing him a scar. "YOU WILL SAY THIS IS BULLSHIT? YOU WILL SAY THE BODY OF MY BOYFRIEND WASN'T FOUND IS BULLSHIT?" Wonwoo startled Mingyu with his outburst.

"I lost everything because of him. My life, my love, even myself. This isn't me," Wonwoo pointed at his bloody hands. "They did this to us, and your father is part of this. He will pay for the consequences," Wonwoo said without emotion.

"So all this time was a lie? All those moments we shared were a lie just so you could get to my father. But Wonwoo, how can I believe you this time when everything you told me before was a lie? How can I believe my father is involved in this?" Mingyu's eyes were threatening to break.
