KIM NAMJOON along with his friends can be found on the dining hall, having some lunch for themselves. Taehyung already went back to his room to take some rest. He needed lots of it, he was still weak. And he already ate his food and took his medicine so there's no problem.
The dining hall was pregnant with silence. No one was talking. Not a single word was exchanged. They were just eating their food seriously. Jin couldn't stand the silence. He wasn't used to it. Usually, when they're eating together, they kidded and joked each other. The atmosphere should be bright, not this. The atmosphere was dark.
Jin decided to broke the silence. "야! Why are you all so silent? You are not usually like this!" He whimpered.
[REVIEW: 야 or Yah means Hey.]
And with that, he successfully caught their attention.
"You should be talking to each other. Kidding to each other or playing like kids. Why are you all suddenly like this? Your auras are very strong and dark!" Jin added.
Jungkook chose to speak. "Everything was all piled up. Information overload," he replied monotonously, with a pang of dulliness in his voice as he took in a spoonful of food.
Jin stopped eating. "You are not the only one. Do you think that I am still feeling good after I learned all about it? No! I am affected too. Just like you guys. It weighs heavy on my heart too and sometimes I just wanted to break up myself and take a rest but I know I don't have time to do that! 'Cause I still have you who are depending on me! Taehyung was looking up to us! He needed us. Our support. Our care. Do you get that?" He said, scolding all of them as he let out his inside feelings he had brought with his heart.
All of the five latter looked down and felt guilty. Jin was right. They shouldn't mourn. Instead, they should be enthusiastic. Maybe not for themselves, but atleast for Taehyung.
Hoseok smiled brightly. "Yeah! Who said I was sad?! I'm your hope-" Jimin joined with him.
"I'm your angel, I'm J-hope!" They said in unison as they laughed together.
Jin smiled. Finally, the atmosphere came back. It was lively again like it usually was.
"야! Hyung! Why did you take my steak?! It's mine!" He whined particulary at the older male beside him, Yoongi.
Yoongi pretended not to hear him as he took another steak from Jungkook's plate. "Hyung~ It's mine!" He whined once again, pursing his lips.
Jin gave his steak to Jungkook who screams merrily. There were plenty of steaks on the table but Jungkook still whined about Yoongi stealing his steaks. Were they also lifting up the mood?
After several minutes of numerous chitchatting, Namjoon finally burst his silence. "Anyway, when will Mr. Hsu and Jihwan arrive?" He questioned, taking a mouthful food on his mouth.
Jin swallowed his food before answering. "He already arrived. A day before yesterday. Jihwan temporarily stays in a suite on one of the hotels that my family owned. "
"Then in that case, when is the court date? It should happen as soon as possible, right?"
Jin wiped his mouth. "I'm not so sure. I still need to confirm it. I heard, the court date happens the day after tomorrow. I'm not really sure but me and Mr. Kim organized everything for the upcoming hearing. We need to win the case," he replied, munching the small bits of food in his mouth.
Jimin diverted his attention at Jin's answer. "Mr. Kim?" He questioned, wearing a confused look on his face.
Jin nodded at him. "Yeah. Remember the lawyer who defended us at the previous hearing? I hired him again to defend us. You know, he's the most prestigious intelligent full-time lawyer around so no need to worry," he responded, finishing his food up.
Everyone seemed to finish eating their food as they all been wiping their mouths with a table napkin. They were all focused on what Jin and Namjoon has been talking about awhile ago.
Namjoon looked at Jin intently, processing something on his mind. "The court hearing should be done as soon as possible. If not, Dr. Kim and his accomplice will try to find a way to escape from the watch of the police. We can't underestimate criminals. Especially that they were ex-doctors. They're clever than what you think," he concluded in between his breaths.
The five looked at each other. Namjoon was right. He had a point. If they don't do anything soon and let themselves rest assured because the police were watching them, Dr. Kim and Ms. Song would really find a way to escape. If they'll escape, then that means Taehyung will be in danger again and they couldn't risk that. Taehyung had suffered enough in his hands and they couldn't afford in letting Taehyung experience that hell again.
"No..." Jimin whispered as soon as he realized Namjoon's point.
Namjoon nodded in return even Jimin didn't saw him.
Suddenly, a loud scream broke the mansion's silence. The voice was coming from Taehyung's room. The six latter all looked at each other like they were communicating in their minds as they seemed to know what could be the reason.
All of them quickly rushed themselves upstairs towards Taehyung's room. As soon as they opened the door, there they saw Taehyung was screaming while he flung his head sidewards back and forth. He was also sweating. The situation was obvious. He was having a nightmare.
Namjoon quickly went to a small round table inside the room where Taehyung's medicines were accordingly placed. He was trying to find the medicine that Jackson instructed them to inject Taehyung when he needed to calm down. After he found it, he went beside Jin and dragged him beside Taehyung who was still screaming uncontrollably.
Namjoon handed Jin the syringe with a sharp needle. Jin looked at him confusely. "Inject it to him so that he'll calm down. You're the eldest, you should do the honor," he told him who just nodded in response, taking out the syringe from his hand and positioned it to Taehyung's bare arm.
Jin then injected it to Taehyung, pushing the plunger of the syringe so that the medicine will be transferred on Taehyung's body. Namjoon handed him cotton balls which Jin accepted it after he pulled out the syringe. He pressed a cotton ball in the injected area for a couple of seconds before he applied the band aide on it.
Finally, Taehyung calmed down and he's not palpitating or releasing cold sweats anymore. The medicine did helped.
All of them sighed in relief. They were glad that the medicine worked for Taehyung. This was the second time after the hallucination on the other day. This must be some of the drug's adverse reactions that Jackson told them.
"I'll watch him today. You hyungs should get some rest," Jungkook unexpectedly volunteered.
