Tainted Heart

Chapter 8

Everyone tried to bail her out but she was not getting any bail at the very moment as she herself confessed her sins.

The whole night was really long for everyone. Even though both international and korean fans turned haters along with haters were hating on her. But there were some fans who were still there and believed in their girl no matter what.

Moon was sitting in her cell being numb. She was not talking to anyone. Her family wanted to meet her. They got permission to meet her too but she didn't meet anyone. She let her body fell on the harsh ground and squeezed her body into ball hugging her body. She just wanted her nana to be alright as she couldn't bear to carry another burden of death on her shoulders.

Beom Seok was at hospital taking care of the things that would need for nana's treatment as per Moon asked him before getting on the police van. His soul wanted to go to his sister and protect her from the world but he knew that nana was someone who was more important to her than herself. She wouldn't be able to handle herself if something happen to nana. She would be shattered.

Suddenly his phone started ringing. He saw that the screen was showing 'Haejin noona calling'. He looked around him and got near a quiet place, near a wall so that she wouldn't be able to know anything. He wiped off his tears and sweat and answered the call. It was a video call. The six girls were tense for Moon.

"Where are you? Why was she in hospital? Why were her clothes covered with blood? Why did she surrendered? What happened? " Haejin asked all these questions in one go.

Yunhee took the phone from Haejin and Yerin asked her eonnie to make her calm down. She asked Beom Seok, "Tell us, please."

"I can't tell you anything. Mianhae." Beom Seok replied.

Haejin felt a sudden anger and took the phone from Yunhee and said, "What kind of brother are you? For god's sake, tell us." But Beom Seok remained silence which caused her anger even more. "Beom Seok, you said you loved me. If you do, tell the damn thing."

That information was new to others but they didn't really react that time. With a heavy heart, Beom Seok said, "Noona, I love you. I really do. But Mianhae. I can't tell you. But I promise that nothing will happen to my sister." saying he cut the call.

Beom Seok used to follow Twilight's group activities for his sister, Moon but during that time, Haejin caught his attention. Even though, Haejin was older than him but he slowly fell for Haejin and meeting her almost regularly due to his sister made the feelings more stronger.

Other hand, Haejin was really upset with Beom Seok. She fell for him too. She was about to say that too. But his nonchalant behaviour when his cousin was in so much danger was making her anger. She didn't say anything and left the room and went back to other room while other girls just stared at her disappearing figure. They didn't follow her as they knew Haejin needed some alone time.

Haejin reminded the time when Beom Seok kissed her and confessed his love for her. Haejin was so shocked. She was not used to all these lovey dovey confession that time.

"Noona..." Beom Seok called out and pulled her closer. Haejin looked into his eyes. "W-what?" she stuttered but didn't know why. He locked her hands behind her back and pulled her more closer which made their bodies touch. He slowly captured his lips which made Haejin's eyes go widened. But she was not pushing him away. She closed her eyes. Their tongues were meeting each in a searing kiss. Beom Seok broke the kiss after a moment for air. They were panting when Beom Seok said, "Noona, saranghae."

Haejin stared at him for a moment being dumbfounded and after a minute she finally said, "y-you are joking." she was stuttering.

"I am not." His voice was clear. He was dead serious. Haejin couldn't be able to decide what should she say. She was feeling something but she didn't know what. "Aye, kid. I am elder than you and you are my bandmates brother. What are you even talking about?" she said all these keeping her voice as still as possible. But inside, she was really nervous.

"This is just attraction. Forget this." Haejin said and turned around to leave.

"If it was, then why didn't you push me away? Why did you let me kiss you? Why are you stuttering? Why are you blushing?" He asked and Haejin touched her cheek feeling the heat without turning around. She knew he was right and she had no answer for those questions. So she didn't turn around and kept going away.

"Noona, just for you to know that I won't give up on you anytime soon." he shouted on her disappearing figure.

Haejin was lying on her bed thinking all of that. Even though, Haejin always kind of give Moon cold shoulder because of her behaviour towards Yunhee, even though, they were together for a very small small amount of time, but she admired her always. Her hard works, her protective aura towards them. She never wanted to be away from her group or her bandmates to be in any trouble.

The next day,
During the night time,

It had been almost 24 hours since Moon was in the custody. She didn't eat anything the whole day. She was sitting on the floor still wearing the same bloody clothes when a female constable came to her cell and opened the door, "Your bail has been approved. Come out."

It seemed like Moon couldn't understand what she said. She looked at her in a daze but eventually got up. She got out of the cell and went out to see Madame Shin waiting for her with a lawyer.

"What did you make out of yourself?" Madame Shin asked her looking at her messy situation. But then she said, "Let's go."

"I don't want to go to my parent's house." Moon said for the first time in a while.

"We are not going home. We are going to the person who bailed you out." Madame Shin said. Moon looked at her but she just gestured her to get into the car.

Time skips,

She was sitting in front of the person who bailed her out. There were different types of food for them. She was looking far better after taking a shower and changing the bloody clothes. They were eating and drinking peacefully without talking. There was a pin drop silence until Moon decided to break the silence and said, "I bullied you too. Then why did you bail me out?"

"Because we are a team, a group. Twilight is made of seven members. 7-1=0 anytime." the person replied.

"You know, Yunhee?" she asked and sipped on her champagne. "I don't really hate you. I am just jealous, insecure. I am jealous that the person I love, loves you." she paused and took another shot and a bite of a sushi. "The person I love, is dating you. I am just hurt. You love a person but the person doesn't love you back and his lover is somone closer to you, it hurts you know?"

"I love loooveeee Min Youngi. But I thInK yOu tOo dOn'T rEALly lOoK baD toO." Alcohol started hitting her. She got up from her seat and went near Yunhee and hand shook with her and said, "TaKE cARe oF hIm, MiN YuNhEe. All tHe beSt. I gIvE uP."

"You don't have to give up." Yunhee said but it seemed like Moon didn't hear that at all as she passed out. Yunhee sighed and chuckled. She sent a message to someone, "She is with me, safe but passed out due to alcohol. I gotcha, oppa."
