SPOILER: Namjin's past.




====================

"It's not the future that you're afraid of.

It's repeating the past that makes you anxious."

====================


3rd person's POV

It was past midnight when the work got done and she seemed pleased about her end product.

A woman in her 40's already rested on the floor of her own bedroom. Her eyes were opened wide as her face was flat on the floor bathing in her own pool of blood. Her head was hit with something hard for a few times so there's no doubt that she would really bleed to death.

Taehyung was there standing on the doorway of the bedroom with the documents he ransacked from Mr. Jeon's office that was just beside the said room. He stares at her with a blank expression and she glanced back at him with a contented smile, her face splashed with a few drops of blood. 

"You really like to show off, don't you? Now who's going to clean that mess you made?" Taehyung commented, clearly unamused. His eyes then landed on the sleeping figure of Mr. Jeon who was also hit on the head but just enough to make him unconscious.

She only chortled and dropped the golf club she used to hit the woman until she's no longer conscious and breathing.

"I'm not an amateur in this. I could handle it." She told confidently.

"Why would you even kill her own mother?" Taehyung asked her, not missing to see how her eyes darkened.

"She didn't even visit me once so how could I not kill her." She finished with a chortle and Taehyung rolled his eyes already walking downstairs.

He was about to wait in the car to wait for her there when his eyes landed on the organ in the living room. He marched towards it and sat on the chair before he dusted off the keyboard. His fingers slowly touched the keys as if he's familiarizing himself with it. 

"It's been so long since I saw it here." He mumbled in amusement.

His thoughts flew back to that night at the restaurant in that double date. For some reason, he couldn't help himself but wonder from whom he heard that familiar melody before. He was so sure that he's not just getting confused. 

He heard that melody from someone of his past.

Taehyung started pressing the keys in order of how he heard it. He was studying the right keys to hit the right notes and after a few tries, he somehow managed to play some of the melodies right. 

He keeps on playing with the keys, closing his eyes and he played it over and over again.

Until he opened his eyes wide in realization, his fingers stopped all at once.

"It's him..." He uttered after a few moments.  But then he shakes his head as if he's confused about something. 

"But is it possible?" He thinks of things that might support his own absurdity but every time he thinks of something, it just falls right back into his idea. 

So he just stares at the keyboard of the organ looking for answers. 

"But he's the only one who knows how to play that."
