Harsh static filled my brain.

I couldn't comprehend what the letter said fully until a few seconds of holding my breath. My chest was heaving but I still couldn't feel any air entering my burning lungs. Every breath I took was like swallowing a fiery knife of pain and regret, the blade cutting at my throat, leaving open wounds inside of me.

I'm nothing.

Rosé was in front of me, her eyes brimmed with worry and fear and her arms flailing in a panicked mode.

I'm nothing.

She began screaming for something but it was just an inaudible hiss which made me crouch back from the anxiety that enveloped my brain. In a few seconds, around three men and two women from inside of the house came rushing from behind me. My eyes became unable to differentiate faces so all I saw were figures of people frantically waving their limbs at me. I didn't respond. I couldn't.

I was being lifted off of the floor, the heaviness of my body being equivalent to a dead man's.

Everything I've ever done for the TA and they just.. let me go so easily?

Images of the men, women, and children who I had brutally killed or led to their deaths overcame my mind. How their bones would simply break from the amount of pressure the  rejection of the second blood type put onto their body. How their whole being went into convulsions from everything within them imploding. How their minds begged for them to be killed.

How Jisoo slammed her head into the floor twenty-six times because of her headache.

There was nothing I wanted more than to be taken back, but that will never happen. Because the TA is ruthless and cruel, throwing away anything unnecessary.

"Taehyung.. Where are you? Come back.. please.."

[Taehyung]

"Helloooooo?" I drawled with my phone being held between my ear and my shoulder loosely.

"H.. ll.. Ca.. ou.. ear.. me?" Replied a broken voice from the other line.

"I'll call you back, hold on,"

I placed the plate of croutons on the counter of the breakfast bar and held my phone as I called Lisa once more. The line rang around three times before she ultimately picked up, "Hello?"

"Oppa? Can you hear me now?" she asked with a questionable tone to her voice.

I smiled in success, "Yeah,"

I walked around the counter of the breakfast bar and sat down in the stool where I put the plate of croutons. I picked up six of the crunchy goodnesses and popped them all into my mouth, the sound of the crunch satifsying both my ears and my mouth.

"Are you eating fucking croutons at six in the morning?"

I went quiet once she pointed out my weird idoisyncracy. "Nao." I replied with my mouth filled with chewed up croutons.

"Umm.. okay,"

I swallowed the mixture in my mouth and sighed, "How was the plane?"

She groaned, "Boring. You know me, oppa, I can't sit still for the life of me."

There was probably no one on this earth who understood that sentence more than me. The past month has been insane with Lisa trying her best to help me settle in the penthouse she bought me in California. It was a bit too extravagant for me, considering that I was a die hard minimalist who enjoyed space, but it was nice. The theme was modern bohemian so it was a mix between both Lisa and I. The rustic pillows and couches had a similar grey color that matched almost everything else in the penthouse if it wasn't white.

"What are you doing now? Are you gonna explore the city?" Asked Lisa's familiar, clear voice from the other side.

I shook my head although she couldn't see it, "Nah, I'm just gonna stay home, maybe draw.. or take pictures."

She hummed in response, "What about you?"

A faint chuckle resonated within my ear, "I'm gonna find Jennie, dummy,"

I smiled at her answer, knowing it before the whole question left my lips.

At first, I was distrustful of Lisa, not sure if I did the right thing by giving her a chance with my beloved and only cousin, but over the past month, she's been growing on me. Like an annoying weed. Although she can make me want to stuff a chair in her mouth, she has proved to be more than capable of taking care of someone. While Min Yoongi's technical company (Min Mainframe) dominates almost all of Asia, Lisa's company (Manoban Mainframe) most definitely controls the West.

Any computer, phone, tablet in the states will have two M's on it, standing for her company name. She has an endless amount of money and influence, being serious when the time calls for it. Lisa also has the ability to make someone happy, which is all I want for Jennie, the only person I've been able to rely on since birth. If Lisa is willing to be there for my cousin for the rest of her life and care for her ten thousand times more than she did for me this past month, I will never condemn their relationship. Hell, I'll support it.
   
However it's up to Jennie to decide if she'll accept another soul than mine into her heart.

"Well when you find her, and I know you will—"

"Hell yeah," she interrupted but I burst into a smile at her confidence.

"When you find her," I repeat, "tell her that I love her.. and that I'm sorry,"

The line went quiet for a second but then she quickly answered with a peppy voice, "Of course,"

[author's notes]

I didn't make the deadline. I'm upset. Although I knew it was impossible, I tried my hardest.

I'm sorry for the people who are reading this, but omega will be completed promptly. There's going to be around fifteen to twenty chapters left:)
