(Taehyung's POV)

After a few weeks, My sister, Luna, was discharged from the hospital. She seemed alright, or maybe it was only a front of her. She still couldn't remember Yoongi-hyung. Honestly, I don't know why but I still want Yoongi-hyung to marry my sister.

It was already two hours before lunch. "Tae-Tae, let's go." I heard my mom softly called out to me. "Jin is already waiting for us at the lobby." Snapping me back to reality. I took the bags while my dad wheeled my sister out of the room and mom following after them. I was the last one to leave the ward.

The entire car ride was silent but it wasn't awkward or heavy. We all felt light as if some kind of unseen weight was lifted from our hearts. It felt peaceful. After a half-hour ride, we reached the apartment where my sister and Jin-hyung are staying.

"Please come in." Jin-hyung said with a light tone. He looked refreshed and more dashing today. He was only wearing a simple street style clothes and white rubber shoes. "Feel free to stay as long as you need." He's very welcoming to us. "Luna's room is on the right side." He informed my parents as they assisted my sister to go to her room to rest while he got the necessary ingredients out of the fridge.

We were preparing the food for lunch when I suddenly called out to him: "Hyung, will she be able to remember Yoongi-hyung?" I looked at his eyes searching for answers. "Will they end up together?" I lowered my head while asking. I couldn't help but hope that maybe someday they will be together as they really love each other.


God, please let Your will be done.


(Yoongi POV)

I was at sitting at a cafe across the hospital. Sipping my ice americano. Today, Luna was discharged from the hospital. I didn't go to see her leave. I can't see her anymore. It will only be more painful. I was preoccupied; remembering Jin-hyung's words the other day.


*Flashback*

"Honestly, I don't know what to feel. I hoped that, with what happened, you will at least re-evaluate your decision." His voice came out harsh. If only looks could kill, I'm already dead.

"But I was wrong. You are indeed a fool. I know you will regret this later in your life but it will be too late for you." He looked at me dead in the eyes. I just maintained an expressionless face. I know I'm indeed a fool. I let her go without any hesitation just to maintain my current status. But what to do? Life must go on.

"Don't worry. I promise I will love her and take care of her all her life." With that, he stood and left the clinic.

There was no longer us but only you and I remain.


*End of flashback*


It was a bright sunny day. It was blinding just like the old Luna.

"Director, thank you for doing the surgery for Ms. Luna." The man in a faded blue polo shirt said as he bowed his head. "No worries Dr. Kang. She's important to me so I will do everything I can to save her." I said coolly and with that Dr. Kang took a seat beside me.

"I hope your girlfriend will finally remember you." I snap my head towards him. My eyes void of any emotion. I could notice his nervousness as if he knew he crossed an invisible line.

"She is my girlfriend until my parents decided that I should marry someone else." I stated with distaste in my mouth. "We broke up for quite some time now." I plastered a simple smile. Acting I was happy now. But I should be, right? I asked for this. I made this happen. And there's no turning back now.

"If she remembers me, I will be grateful. But the pain will all come back when she remembers me." I paused holding back my tear. "So, I hope she will never remember me."

I'm not over you but I'm done loving you.

"I'm sorry, Director Min Yoongi." His eyes offering some sort of comfort.

"No need to be sorry. She's just a chapter in my life which has a tragic ending." I took a sip on my coffee. In order to survive this heartache and move on, I must kill the love I have for her.


Suddenly, it felt eeriely quiet. A beautiful woman emerged in our view. "Hi, Director Min. Are you ready to go now?" Her melodious voice echoed in the cafe.

I looked up at her and told her: "Yes, I am. Let's go." With that, I turned to Dr. Kang and bowed slightly.

This life is only a game of survival for me. It's up to you if you would either be a hunter or prey.
