The Shadows of power

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Dr. Jin was busy confronting a young patient who was terrified of getting an injection. His laughter echoed in the small room, soothing the child until he was ready to comply. Moments later, BTS arrived at the hospital, where they were immediately recognized, even if their faces remained unknown. The name BTS struck fear and respect into the hearts of those who knew them.

Approaching the receptionist, they inquired about Dr. Jin’s office. Upon receiving directions, they walked through the halls, their presence commanding attention. As they reached a large, transparent glass door, they observed Jin’s gentle demeanor as he engaged with the child, clearly a stark contrast to their own world.

Knocking on the door, Jin looked up and welcomed them in, feeling a wave of intimidation wash over him at the sight of six imposing figures filling his office. They took their seats, and Namjoon began, “Look, Dr. Jin, we work for the people. I can’t reveal the full extent of our work, but we collaborate with the government to combat international threats. We need your help.”

Jin raised an eyebrow, intrigued yet cautious. “You seem to be quite the secret organization. Why do you need my help?”

“Dr. Jin,” Namjoon explained, “we have every talent and skill in our organization, but one thing is missing: medical expertise. Dealing with criminals often leads to injuries, and I don’t want to lose any of my members due to a lack of medical attention. We thought it best to add a doctor to our team. All the paperwork is done; we just need your approval and signature.”

Jin, who often felt bored in his current position, reflected on his life as the head doctor. Though he enjoyed helping patients, he was weary of dealing with entitled families who didn’t respect his medical authority. The prospect of change excited him. “What kind of change will this bring to my life?” he asked, curious.

Namjoon smiled. “You’d come live with us in our mansion.”

Jin nodded slowly, intrigued by the offer. Namjoon’s ability to present their dark world in a light that felt almost appealing was impressive. Jin considered his own desire for respect and excitement, contemplating the leap of faith this decision could represent.

As they discussed the details, Jin felt a spark of hope for a change in his stagnant life. Namjoon’s words promised adventure, though the underlying truths of their organization remained unspoken.

“Let’s see how life unfolds for these figures,” Jin mused silently. What awaited him in this new chapter? What would become of the powerful men who had walked into his office?

The possibilities were exhilarating, and as Jin signed the papers, he felt an adrenaline rush at the thought of a new beginning.

How do you feel about the story so far? What do you think will happen next?
