Hold on
I still want you.

°°°°°°°°°°°

Taehyung couldn't help but feel a little worried about the sudden anxiety that slowly settled into Namjoon's features. He fidgeted at the door as Tae slipped out of the bed and softly asked him what the matter was. But Namjoon ducked his head down and told them to wait.

Taehyung exchanged a confused look with Yoongi, trying to find any trace of a prankster in his expression. But it was clouded.

The door opened when Taehyung was still looking at Yoongi, for some reason he wasn't able to avert his eyes away. As if looking at Yoongi gave him a sense of calmness. But then the expression of the other suddenly morphed into a burning furry, he couldn't help but look over at the cause.

Standing in front of him was Yeonwoo. The mafia looked up at Taehyung tentatively, his past behaviour seemed to be hanging at the edge.

Taehyung's nose curled into a look of disgust. Yeonwoo gulped, his eyes looked sunk in and lips pressed together in a thin line. His entire face was littered with purple-black bruises which gave a sense of triumph, he did that.

"What's you business here?" Taehyung said. Even though he tried his best to put the needed calmness in his words, they still came out sounding like sharp jags of knife.

"You killed him.." Yeonwoo trembled. The submissive behaviour made Taehyung confused, his left eye twitched. Yoongi took a step forward, and pressed his hand firmly on Taehyung's back. Probably equally confused.

"I didn't" Taehyung snorted,"His own daughter did"

"Tae—"

"And if you don't want a similar fate but from my hands. I suggest you crawl back to the lousy hole of yours"

"Listen"

"There is nothing to listen Yeonwoo. I'm done with this shit and I don't want to get my hands dirty once more. But if you tried crossing any lane, remember that I'm still a professional"

"I'll go, I promise. But please can you listen to me once!"

Taehyung frowned, his eyes flickered from Yeonwoo's face to his hands which trembled at his side. "What?" He finally asked.

"Thank you and I'm sorry"

"For what?" It was Yoongi who spoke.

"You killed him. I'm finally free"

Taehyung let out the the loudest laugh possible. The sudden impact caused his stitches to tighten but he still managed to let out a teasing chuckle. He turned to Yoongi but pointed at Yeonwoo and said.

"Look hyung. Doesn't it sounds like some old black and white cliché?"

Yoongi chuckled awkwardly, tugging his lip up a little to reveal half a smile. Taehyung turned his eyes back to Yeonwoo, the laugh dead on his face.

"Just shut the fuck up and leave. I'm not going to give you any old man mercy here."

Yeonwoo nodded but still stood there. Taehyung raised his eyebrow and crossed his arms over his chest. "Now? What is it?"

"Also I apologize for my inappropriate behaviours with you in the past" The hand on Taehyung's back tightened. "But I had my reasons"

Taehyung rolled his eyes. "Now blurt them out too"

"I—...Cause I wanted you to get out of there. There was something you should have know since the start of all this. I'm the reason you got in this mess"

Now Taehyung was more confused.

"What?"

"Your mother..." Yeonwoo hesitated to continue as he saw Taehyung's hands curl into a fist.
"Don't you dare say her name on your lousy tongue"

"No Taehyung! I....knew her..." Yeonwoo knew he was stepping in dangerous waters when Taehyung's confused gaze turned into realisation and then nothing but pure white hatred.

"So...you were that guy.. weren't you?" Taehyung's voice trembled with anger. Yeonwoo took a step back as Taehyung advanced towards him.

"I had to...your mother she—.."

Before Yeonwoo could continue Taehyung had his fingers around Yeonwoo's collar. He flung the old man again the table, his head crashed against the tray of medical supplies.

"How could you have the audacity to come and stand in front of me?" Taehyung growled,"When you watched your own daughter die!"

"Tae—..lis—..en.." Yeonwoo chocked against the hold of Taehyung's hands around his neck.

Taehyung banged his head against the table. Yoongi was saying something along the lines of stop it, you're gonna kill him. But Taehyung didn't stop squeezing the life out of Yeonwoo.

"I'm ...sorry" Yeonwoo wheezed but it's too late right. The life slowly drained out of Yeonwoo's eyes and he watched Taehyung's face blur, as the black took over him.

"Taehyung..." He chocked and pressed his hand against Taehyung's cheek,"Son..she..—..is ali..ve.."

Taehyung's eyes widened and he quickly backed away. A grave silence fell over the room as Yeonwoo crumbled on the ground with eyes open wide but dead.

"Get up!" Taehyung shook him,"Get up and say that again!"

But it was no use. He was gone.
