The Kim siblings thought they were finally free-free to live, to laugh, to escape the shadows of their past.
A trip abroad was supposed to be a time to unwind, to strengthen their bond after all they had endured. But peace is fleeting, and darkness...

"W...what?" Namjoon's voice cracked as he finally broke the painful silence. His eyes darted between his brothers, desperate for them to say it wasn't true.
The room felt heavy, none of them able to meet his gaze. Jin rubbed the back of his neck, while Yoongi simply looked at the table, his jaw tight.
"Say something!" Namjoon's voice grew louder, more frantic. "What did you say, Hyung? You can't just drop something like that and stay silent! Tell me it's not true!"
His voice echoed in the small room, raw with pain.
Hoseok winced at Namjoon's tone but kept his composure as much as he could. "Namjoon, it's true," he said softly. "Rebecca had a miscarriage... your baby is gone."
Namjoon froze, his breathing shallow. "No... no, you're lying! She was fine! I talked to her just before I was accused; she said she was fine! This can't be true!"
Yoongi finally looked at him, his voice firm yet laced with sorrow. "We're not lying, Namjoon. We found out this morning. Mark called and told us everything. Rebecca was coming home after a walk when a car hit her. S..she is in hospital and unconscious while the doctor couldn't save the baby girl"
Namjoon's legs gave out, and he slumped back onto the bench, his handcuffs clinking loudly. He gripped his hair, his mind reeling. "This... this can't be happening," he whispered.
The siblings watched helplessly as their once unshakable brother broke down completely, his sobs filling the room.
Hoseok couldn't take it anymore. He stood up and moved closer, sitting beside Namjoon on the bench. Gently, he wrapped his arms around him, pulling him into a tight embrace. Namjoon leaned into his brother's hold, his body shaking with each heartbreaking sob.
"W...why is all this happening to me, Hyungie?" Namjoon choked out, his voice muffled against Hoseok's shoulder. "First this... this murder... and now this. My baby... she's gone. I couldn't even see her..."
Hoseok's own tears welled up as he held his brother tighter. "I don't know, Joonie. I don't know why this is happening... but we're here. We'll get through this together, I promise."
Jin knelt down in front of Namjoon, placing a hand on his knee. "Namjoon, we're all devastated, but we'll get justice for you, and we'll make sure Rebecca is taken care of. You're not alone in this."
Yoongi's voice came from behind, low but steady. "And you're not to blame for what happened to her or the baby. Don't carry that weight, Namjoon. It's not your fault."
Namjoon shook his head violently, tears streaming down his face. "I should've been there for her. I should've protected her... my baby, Hyung. She's gone, and I couldn't do anything."
Jungkook, standing near the wall with YN, stepped closer, his eyes filled with tears. "Hyung, you're not alone in this. It's not the end."
YN sniffled, finally speaking up. "We'll make it through, Oppa. You're the strongest person I know. We'll fight for you, for Rebecca Unnie, for everything. Just don't give up."
