Minho literally knew about me the entire time?

And Eunho knew about that fat man's schemes while he worked for my father?

I should've known... my father should've known.

Was I being disrespectful for having my thoughts on these things right now?
Yes, completely.

But I'm pretty sure half the people here pretending to pray also had their thoughts on other things.
Thing is--that for the past couple of days on top of all the horrible events my mind wandered back to the newly found information from that day.

"He will forever be missed and may his soul rest in peace, amen" the priest finished as we all followed with mumbled amens. I slowly raised my head and felt Yoongi tighten his hold on my hand as if making sure I was still by his side, which I was, never letting go of his hand throughout the entire morning.

Considering how stressed, mentally and emotionally drained Yoongi probably was we have yet to speak about all of this. He put up a strong, unfazed front but I knew it was something he had to do as a mob leader.

A couple of men in suits approached us giving Yoongi a quick hug followed by their condolences, it wasn't a surprise throughout the entire funeral ceremony people unknown to me greeted Yoongi with the same words.

"Can I speak with you privately Mr. Min" one particular man whispered towards Yoongi as he quickly glanced at me.

"Whatever it is it can wait" he replied coldly.

"Boss I'm afraid it can't and it must be in private..." the man insisted. I don't recall seeing him before but I assumed he worked close with Yoongi considering the courage to insist on speaking with him. He was tall, a bit taller than Yoongi more muscular though with tan skin and a little stubble.

"Well, Eric whatever it is she can be present" Yoongi spoke as if he was a offended by the comment.

I slowly let go of his hand as I spotted Sori Na standing next to a gloomy Namjoon by the freshly patted dirt where we were all gathered around just moments ago.

"It's ok baby I need to talk to some people anyway" I kissed his cheek as he gripped my waist protectivelyㅡ I nodded as I sign I'd be fine and waited for him to nod in return to excuse myself.

As soon as I approached Sori she wrapped her arms around me, it was just what I needed. I'd spent the last couple days being Yoongi's rock and comfort but now I needed someone.
"What exactly happened to him?" she whispered as we pulled away.

I looked around the area, my eyes searching specifically for the only two people I needed to see but the crowds of people in black made it impossible.

"They call it a car accident but we're not so sureㅡ"
I returned to the conversation "ㅡyou know in this business it's impossible for 'accidents' to happen"
I finished as I glanced at Yoongi who seemed to be having a serious conversation with the man, Eric.

"Well I'm sorry for your loss, I didn't know about him much but I could tell he wasㅡ" Sori's words were cut short as a familiar voice spoke from behind me.

"Ellen?"

"Oh it's so nice to see you" Yoongi's mother hugged me followed by his grandmother who both had puffy red eyes.
"I would've much preferred under better circumstances but you know..." her voice trembled as tears silently fell from her eyes.
