"Is he your boyfriend Jin?" Jungkook asked me as soon as he walks into my bedroom.

Shocked by his question, I did not answer right away. I just stared at his angry face.

"Answer me! Is he your boyfriend?" He asked me again.

I lower my head. "We like each other." I said in a low voice.

"Fuck!!!" He cursed. "And you believed him?"

"I can feel it!"

"Ridiculous!" He uttered. "He is our father's enemy Jin. How can he like someone like you?"

I was taken aback by his question. "What's wrong with that? He likes me. I know he likes me. I can feel it."

"Jin, why are so weak? Just because a man is hot, handsome and good with words, you will let yourself fall into his trap? You see what happened to you and Hyunwoo?" Jungkook's eyes are glaring at me.

"That was father's will! He pushed me to Hyunwoo. You know that! That's not my fault!" How dare he brought that up again.

"You know how to defend yourself Jin. Why didn't you tell me earlier or why didn't you leave him? Wasn't it your fault?"

I let out a sarcastic laugh. "Are you crazy hyung? I can't believe those words are coming from you. I thought you understood what I've been through? Then why are you blaming me like it's all my fault?" I shook my head.

"Gosh Kookie. You know the reason why. If I will leave him, father will only beat me. He will lock me again in my bedroom with no food and water just because I disobey his orders. What kind of life was that?! And what will be the ending? He will only ask me to apologize and go back to Hyunwoo."

"If I will tell it to you, you will do something unnecessary. I don't want you to do something nasty because of me."

"I thought Hyunwoo really loves me. I am vying for love and attention from father because he never loved me. I thought Hyunwoo can give that love to me that I let him hurt me physically and rape me. Yes, partially it's my fault but I blame father for pushing me into this."

"So Taehyung is different is that what you're trying to tell me?" Jungkook sounds irritated with my answer.

"Yes he is and he is better than father and he is far more better than Hyunwoo!" I answered confidently.

Jungkook sneered. "Really Jin? That's how madly in love you are with him? I can't believe you!"

"Taehyung gave me the attention that I am looking for. He gave me reasons on why I should stand up for myself. He made me stronger. I found that courage to stand against Hyunwoo because of Taehyung. He's the one who opened my eyes against father's illegal activities. And you know what's painful? You know it and you're not telling it to me!"

"Why did you allow Taehyung to control you? Are you really crazy?" Jungkook asked me. Maybe he's trying to grasp why I became like this.

"I can't accept the fact that father fed us, sent us to the best schools and gave us an extremely comfortable life from illegal doings. Money coming from being a smuggler? How can you decipher that?! That is so disgusting!" I answered him.

"So you allowed Taehyung to destroy father's image to you?" Jungkook eyes widened.

My mouth fell open. "What destroy are you talking about? Father destroyed his own image to me. And you know what disappoints me even more? That you're part of that group! How long have you been doing that?"

Jungkook's face hardened. I know he wanted to defend himself. He run his fingers through his hair and walk back and forth in front of me. Clicking his tongue once in a while.

"What? You can't answer me because I'm right? Jungkook how could you?"

Jungkook remained silent then finally, he stopped from walking and took a deep breath. "Okay. I'm sorry. I know that's wrong but that's our family Jin. Why did you betray our own family?"

"I don't even like that family now!" I yelled and Jungkook was surprised.

"What did you say? So you mean you will choose Taehyung over us?"

"It's not that. But I don't like how father control our lives. He only cares about himself. He only cares about wealth. About power. Influence. I don't want that kind of life." I reasoned out.

"So Taehyung can give you a different kind of life? Jin he's just the same as our family. If our family is involved in something illegal, Taehyung is no different." Jungkook's tone aerated.

"He's just stopping all the illegal activities Kookie. He's not even a smuggler. Yes, he intercepted our shipments before but you're aware that those shipments arrived in the shores illegally. Father is a smuggler and Taehyung hates that. At least, he knows what he's fighting for."

Jungkook shook his head. "I can't believe how much Taehyung brainwashed your mind Jin. You think that's love? He's only using you against our father. He will not let you go in a very dangerous shoot out if he really likes you "

"I volunteered hyung. He tried to stop me but I want to go. I want to prove to father that I am not a weakling. I wanted our father to know that I am part of that group who stopped his men from stealing a truck of goods. I want him to feel regretful about giving me as a gift to Taehyung. I want him to regret what he did to me! On why he didn't give me the attention and love that I need! I hate him! I hate him!!" I screamed. I think those words somehow took some of my heartaches away.

Jungkook's face fell. His face turned gloomy. Maybe full of pity? Because his little brother has been long unhappy.

"And probably, you know that he gave me to Taehyung as a gift right? You knew! And you did not do anything! Where were you when I am stuck right here? Where were you when I feel so alone and dejected? You forgot about me because you're too busy pleasing our father!" I yelled at him. I know I should not blame him but I'm just so angry and disappointed.

"Jin no. I tried. I asked father to rescue you. I tried to do it myself but I'm alone."

I breathe out. Trying to find the right words to say. "I lost all my respect to our father hyung. You see, he don't love me. He don't need me. I will ask Taehyung to let you go so you can go back to your father."

"I will not leave this place without you."

"I don't want to go home. I love it here." I said. That's the truth.

"But why? Once father learned that you're now excellent in shooting, he will be really proud." Jungkook smiled. Trying to convince me.

I stared at him and shook my head. "I don't want to go back to a smuggler, thief, murderer and rapist father."

Jungkook looks confused. "Murderer? Rapist? What are you talking about?"

"Did you ever ask why Taehyung is father's mortal enemy? Did you ever try to find out why?" I asked and Jungkook cannot answer. Because what we both know is that Taehyung is just his business rival.

"Because Taehyung was 10 years old when father raped then killed his mom in front of him. Now tell me hyung, can you blame him?"
