Hi. I am so sorry for not updating regularly, but I haven't really been able to be on Wattpad at all. This chapter is pretty mediocre and I am only halfway happy with it, but I hope that you still like it at least a little bit. Oh and as per Killer, I don't have any inspiration as of right now to write it. As soon as I can, I will. Don't forget to vote and comment. Love you ❤️

"I said get out!" Hannah screams at the top of her lungs at both Jin and Taehyung, voice breaking in the middle of her sentence.

3 A.M. 3-fucking-A.M. is when they woke up from her screaming and yelling. It's only when they enter her room in a frantic state of mind that they realize- she's sleeping.

She's screaming in her sleep, not waking herself up. She wakes up when Grandpa finally shoves the knife into her heart and twists it.

"Get out!!" she cries, hands rubbing all over her body in an attempt to make him go away. "Get off of me, you son of a bitch! LEAVE ME ALONE!!" she yells as she starts scratching at her arms.

Hannah looks up and sees them at the door, gasping sharply in fear.

Don't let it show.

"Get out!!" she barks, gritting her teeth in warning.

"Hannah, baby it's okay-" Jin speaks shakily, tears clouding his own vision at what he'd just witnessed. She interrupts him before he can talk further and it's that much more devastating at what she says.

"I am not your baby. You are not my parent. Now leave." she's calm as the words leave her mouth and it's concerning how convinced she sounds.

It's painful how convinced she sounds. But it's not Hannah, Seokjin knows her, this is not his little baby girl. She's just afraid. Mortified.

"Baby, please, just talk to us, we're here-" Taehyung talks this time and Hannah seems to listen for a bit.

"I don't wanna talk. I just wanna sleep," she pouts and starts to sniffle and quietly cry.

Hannah walks towards them from the spot she'd been standing at- the corner of her room- and stands in front of Seokjin.

"I'm so sorry Jinnie," her sobs are broken. "I- I didn't mean to say that, I really didn't want to be m-mean," she wipes at her eyes and hiccups.

Seokjin crouches down to her level and caresses her cheek softly, Hannah leaning into the comforting touch. "It's okay.." his voice is very soft, barely above a whisper and she sobs again, unintentionally.

"C-can... hug?"

He coos at her and kisses her forehead before pulling her in for a tight hug, all the while Taehyung watches them.

The younger pouts at them and crouches down too. "I don't get a hug?" he says playfully and Hannah only extends her other arm for him to hug her too.

"Hannah," Jin starts, pulling her away to look at her face. "Is dr. Kim helping you? Do you feel better since talking to him?"

"Kimchi? Kimchi's great! Kimchi taught me how to fight back against Grandpa in my dreams.. I'm just not very good at it yet, I guess," Hannah's face twists up at her own mention of Grandpa.

"Kimchi's been good?" Taehyung repeats the nickname, still not understanding how his daughter's brain works when it comes to nicknames.

"Yeah," Hannah chirps- or tries to, but her red face and teary eyes aren't helping the impression- "why?"

"We were just curious," Jin states and smiles. "Are you okay now?"

Hannah hesitates, then nods. Jin doesn't buy it and he asks her if she'd like to sleep in their bed that night.

And as you would expect, he knows her just a tad too well, she agrees.

"We'll have to report this to Kimchi," Taehyung states once she's asleep.

"He is Dr. Kim!" the elder male whisper yells at him, both quietly giggling at the nickname and it's finally time to sleep, or try at least.

"Mr. Kim, I will try my absolute best but the nightmares might just be something a psychologist can't solve. Sometimes it's not subconscious and it's something simply embedded into her being, if that makes sense." Kiha says, slightly slumping in his chair in relief when the threating look leaves Taehyung's eyes.

"So my daughter can't be helped? Is that what you are saying, Doctor?"

"What I am saying is, maybe it's a phase that she has to go through by herself. You've tried to help her before, correct?" the doctor asks him with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes," Taehyung nods.

"And has anything worked?"

"Well, no, but-"

"Then there's your answer. Usually, psychologists take cases like this specifically to take money, but I am being completely honest here. Don't waste money. I will investigate and research further but if I find nothing, don't force more stress on her, please."

"Thank you," Taehyung bows then leaves the office after bidding farewell to the doctor.

Outside, Jin is waiting for him, anxiously waiting for him on the couch in the waiting room.

Yes, indeed, the elder let Taehyung do something he'd wanted, running out of ideas himself. Maybe it's not so bad to let him decide for once.

"And?" He jumps up as soon as the younger is in his line of sight.

Taehyung sighs and rubs at his temples. "I didn't get much. He did say that this might be something doctors can not fix or get rid of, that he could easily take our money but because he knows what Hannah is going through, he just wants her to feel better and stuff like that."

"So he can't help her?" Jin pouts, eyes glossing over. "I mean.. maybe he's right but, I just, I don't know, I felt that he'd be able to,"

"He kind of did baby, didn't she say he helped her learn how to fight Grandpa off?"

"But she still woke up screaming that night and I-"

"But she's been okay since, right?"

"Right," the elder nods, walking into Taehyung's embrace, seeking comfort.

"She'll pull through, I know it!"

"Pull through what? What is this? What is happening to her? I still have no idea what we're fighting against and that is what's stressing me out! Is it a demon? Hallucinations? A stalker? What?"

"I don't know baby, I really don't. I wish I did. Whatever it is, it can't last forever. It will stop, I'm sure of it." Taehyung whispers the words into Seokjin's hair and it's almost therapeutic.

"You promise?"

Taehyung frowns, but assures anyway, "I promise."

"A trip?" Hannah repeats, confused. "A trip where?"

"Wherever you'd like. You choose where we're going." Jin smiles at her, taking a hand into his own.

"Really?"

"Yes baby, really," Taehyung assures.

Hannah hums in thought, tilting her head slightly to the side. "Thailand?"

The adults furrow their eyebrows in confusion and look at each other before asking in unison, "What?"

Hannah smacks her lips in annoyance. "Can we go to Thailand?"

"Why Thailand, baby?" Jin asks.

She shrugs, "I don't know, I just wanna go."

"Are you sure you don't have to think a little more? Maybe we could get you a map? Something to help you decide?"

"No, I wanna go there!"

"So.." Jin starts, turning to look at the younger. "Thailand?"

"I guess so,"

Thailand it is.
