"Who the heck are you?" Said the man. The frown on his face was telling that he was in absolute perplexity when the stranger suddenly popped out of nowhere. As if he was facing a mirror, his expression was completely reflected on the latter's flawless face as well. Silence was taking the place. The tensed ambience unexpectedly turned into an awkward one.

The pale one then cleared his throat while dragged his gaze from the stranger's blank eyes to his fingers that lingered on the frame of the car's window as if asking him to pull away. Taken aback at the fact that his grand plan was a total failure, he was unconsciously allowing his prey to slip away from his grip when the car literally dashed out as soon as he let his hand down. In a second, the car was totally out of his sight, left him dumbfounded.

Min Yoongi might had a straight expression. Min Yoongi might had a flat tone of voice. Yet, the shiver on his spine and the trembling legs which stepped on the pedal under the wheel could not hide his fear.

Those eyes. He trailed. Those brown eyes were inevitably recognizable. Somehow they brought back all the vague pictures of the teenage boy he knew years back. Took a sharp breath, another realization hit him hard as the face that he barely glanced minutes ago portrayed at the back of his mind. The flash of grownup version of his childhood friend and the awkward figure of Jungkook's blonde friend who he could not recall the name of were mixed into one face. That face.

Fuck! It can't be! He cursed under his breath while accelerated the speed of his car as the very familiar pair of eyes kept coming to his head. Tightened his grip on the wheel, his only wish for the moment was that his idiotic trick would do his a favor in prolonging his life span even for a minute.

Already struggled to maintain the wheel with his sweaty palms, a sudden thunder which was flashed right in front of his car wasn't helping either. Oh, please don't. He was pleading in panic as the idea that the furious friend of his had finally found out his silly lie.

This time, he was out of luck.

Heavy rain immediately crashed into the roof of his car which obviously took his breath away, made him startled and pushed the break in no time. Panted harshly, his heart was beating wildly as if it was asking to be freed from his rib cage as soon as his eyes caught a silhouette under a certain streetlight on a raining empty road 2 feet away from his idle car. Oh, I'm so dead.

"Oh, yes you are"

Not even had a time to catch a single breath, the terrified Yoongi was loosing his soul as a husky deep voice came from the very next of his driver seat. Paralyzed, he could only closed his eyes as the grip of his hands on the wheel got tighter, waiting the furious brother to karate chop him and send him straight to the hell.

"Aren't we gonna do something about this?" A bored voice was breaking the silence as he lamely turned to his colleagues, who were calmly sipping their tea on a comfy couch.

"Your call" Kim Seokjin said as he lazily pointed his cup to Kim Namjoon who was sitting next to him.

"That kid can't even kill a damn mosquito, what is the worst thing he could do to that poor guy anyway?" Namjoon said.

Jeon Jungkook shrugged his shoulder and put his attention back to the mirror, unamused, till he heard a shrieking high pitch voice came out from it. His black doe eyes were widened at a moment but immediately disappeared into a thin line as he exploded his laugh out loud.

There was a picture of Min Yoongi struggling to keep himself alive by pathetically grabbing the fluffy hair of his potential murderer with all his might. He was clinging at the furious man's back like a damn baby koala as the latter tried so hard to balance himself in the air.

Yes, they were somehow floating in the air, above Yoongi's car, under the heavy rain, while screaming and bickering to each other.

"LET. GO. OFF. MY. DAMN. HAIR!"

"PUT ME DOWN YOU PSYCHO BOGEYMAN!"

"OH DON'T YOU DARE MIN YOONGI" Taehyung growled.

It was to late for Yoongi to take back the words as Taehyung flung them both to the nearest streetlight and literally dumped Yoongi on the top of it harshly. Shivered by both cold rain and Taehyung's presence who was scarily floating in front of him, Yoongi could only pathetically clutching at the slippery light in disbelief. Stayed under the pouring rain, Taehyung unwavering gaze was piercing through Yoongi's lifeless eyes.

"Did you put your dirty nasty hands on my baby?"

Gulped as he already predicted these words from Taehyung, Yoongi threw his stare away from Taehyung's deadly one. I don't know. He mentally said.

"ANSWER ME!"

"I DON'T KNOW! I SWEAR TO GOD! I DON'T KNOW! I don't know.." Yoongi frustratedly shouted out with a noticeable cracking and trembling voice. His eyes were closed, the grip of his hands on the pole was tightened.

"I don't know Taehyung, I don't fucking now what happened that night" His voice was barely heard but Taehyung could get the hint of the confusion, frustration and tiredness behind it.

"Shithead"

"I am" Yoongi replied weakly, surrendered to the situation. He was ready to receive the brother's wrath in all cost, even if it's death.

As if answering his deep thought, he heard Taehyung chuckled deeply with a sinister smile painted on his drenched face. "If life is the price you should give for unconsciously tainting my sister, then she should be the one who take it from you, Min Yoongi"

Then he's gone, disappeared behind a thick fog which came after the rain. Leaving nothing but silence and a bone-freezing night. And of course, the speechless and soulless Min Yoongi on the top of flickering streetlight.

Ah, what kind of sin did I do on my precious life?
