The Invasion, Cannibals Vkook [1] (Being Rewritten)

27.) Selfish Monster

"Fair is foul, and foul is fair.
Hover through the fog and filthy air."

(Just a heads up, this book is ending soon or it should be ending soon. But I have a second book that will continue on from this one.)

"And you know where said brother is, right?" I ask the new boy while Yoongi started up the car. Ho-Jin had joined us in Jimin's truck after we decided that our half of the group will retrieve the brother.

"I told you, I'm not one hundred percent sure but it's worth a shot." He responds back.

"So your telling me that we are just gonna go knocking on sewer lids until we find your brother." I angrily spat back at him. I don't get a response out of the boy after that, I was probably too harsh.

Ho-Jin only speaks up again to give directions to Yoongi. I feel kinda bad that I chewed out the poor boy, he just wants to have his brother safe with him. I get that, that is how I felt about Yoongi when the invasion first broke out. All I wanted was to know that my other half was safe as well as my dad. I wonder what happened with my dad, Yoongi hasn't mentioned him and that makes me kinda worried. I was expecting to find both Yoongi and my dad together but my dad wasn't there. I keep wondering if he died when the invasion broke out, but Yoongi would tell me if our dad died, right?

My thoughts fly through my head while I try to find a better and logical reason to why Yoongi hasn't talked about dad. I didn't seem to notice though that I was starting to panic and my breath was becoming heavy. That was until I felt a hand on my knee, squeezing it as a way to comfort me. I followed the hand up all the way to the owners face. Jungkook was smiling brightly at me and I found myself giving a smile back to him.

Jungkook is a person who I have found immediate safety and comfort in. I know I've only known him for a small period of time but I feel like I've known him for way longer. Maybe it was the fact that the days seem longer when you are trying to survive, but I feel some sort of familiarity with the black haired male. I don't know how to explain it, but the boy just makes me feel like nothing is wrong with our stupid world. 

"This sewer should be where my brother is currently working at." Ho-Jin's voice brings me out of my burning thoughts. I don't dare speak up, in fear that I will only heighten the tension between me and the new boy. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the male I was just frustrated that we weren't getting out of this town as fast as possible.

Ho-Jin carefully gets out of the truck and walks over to the back of the alley way we were wedged into. Now that I recall I remember hearing some grunts coming out of my best friend's voice as I was lost in my thoughts. And this explains it, Jimin's car is at risk of being scratched up. I look back over at Ho-Jin who is just staring at the sewer cover that was in front of him.

I was about to roll down my window and yell at him for wasting our time, before the cover popped open and out came a younger looking man who looked odly like Ho-Jin. That was probably his brother, I guess he did know where he was then. The two came back to the truck, Jimin moving to the front middle and me to shot gun to make room for our newest arrival.

"Guys this is my younger brother, Ho-Sung." The smaller boy just waves his hand, not in a shy way but in a uncomfortable way. We are strangers to him and in this world you can't trust too easily. And thus the introduction came once again, starting with Jungkook and finishing with me. I was quiet and more timid in my introduction, I still had the guilt of snapping at Ho-Jin on my shoulders.

No one seemed to notice my personality change, or they did but didn't care to question it. We all were struggling and so it doesn't surprise me if they didn't care that I had become guilty in our truck drive. Maybe I could change cars with Hoseok or something since I feel awkward and uncomfortable sitting here and wallowing in my self pity –spurting from my guilt– and my wondering thoughts. Where in the world is my dad at?

It seems that I was wrong in the part where no body cared about my subtle change. It seemed that I missed Jungkook's worried looks, I was too consumed with my own self to notice it.

Gosh I'm so rude and selfish while we are in the middle of an invasion of cannibals. Goodness why am I such a selfish monster.

-(where is my dad is my biggest concern but my selfish ways is probably an even bigger concern.)-
