''Good, you're here.'' Tae lets Yoongi in. Jin and the rest of the guys were already here discussing the letter and the pictures. As well as possibilities of who could have sent it. 

''Where is he?'' He asks. 

''In his room, losing his shit.'' He points upstairs. In a heartbeat, Yoongi's already up the stairs, and walking into Jimin's room, who is pacing back and forth in his room. Contemplating, hyperventilating, and crying. 

''Hey baby,'' Yoongi calls out to him gently, and Jimin runs into his arms, scared and already a crying mess. ''It's going to be okay.'' He falls to the floor with the younger in his arms. 

Jimin says nothing, but sniff and have his tears completely soak Yoongi's shirt. After a few minutes, he speaks. ''I'm scared. I mean who has been following me home. What if they have it out for me?'' All these questions are blurred out. 

''Calm down. It's fine. We'll figure it out.'' He continues his pep talk but is interrupted by arguing downstairs. 

...

Everyone is discussing all the possibilities about the package until they're all interrupted by a knock at the door. Jin being the oldest, and the most irritated at the moment that someone is threatening his mochi gets up and answers it.

He's at a loss for words when seeing who's at the door. ''What in the actual hell are you doing here?'' He asks. 

Tae, rushes to his side, him as well, becoming infuriated. ''Why are you here?'' 

''Hey, Taehyung. I came to talk to Jimin.'' The person responds. 

''And what makes you think he wants to talk to you?'' 

''Because he's in danger, and I think he might want to hear me out.'' 

''You left when he was a kid, about to graduate high school! Who the fuck do you think you are to come up at his door, wanting to talk?'' Jin snaps. At this point, his loudness has erupted throughout the house catching everyone's attention. 

''I think you should just leave. He didn't want to see you then, I doubt he'll want to see you now.'' Taehyung lets him know. 

But all the talking stops when Jimin comes downstairs, followed by Yoongi. ''Dad...'' He whispers, voice breaking. 

''Jimin-'' 

''What are you doing here?'' He asks walking up to the door. 

''This cheater, claims that he knows why you're in danger, and he wants you to hear him out,'' Jin explains. 

Thinking for a moment before speaking, ''Fine.'' He agrees and both Tae and Jin steps aside letting him walk-through. He takes a seat on the couch and clears his throat. Every eye in the room is eyeing him down. Jimin is seating down with Yoongi behind him gently rubbing his shoulders. 

''Are you going to speak, or sit here and have your presence be annoying by the second?'' Jimin asks. 

''Okay, so how you been?'' He asks and Jin jumps on the question. 

''Nope, don't get familiar. Say your piece and get the hell out.'' 

''Fine. Do you remember Damon?'' 

''The guy who used to come over to the house all the time when I was younger?'' 

''Yeah, my best friend at the time.'' 

''What about him?''

''So a couple of months, before you graduated high school, he stopped coming over to the house.'' 

''And why?'' 

''Jiaying and I started fooling around, and he started getting suspicious, but never was sure-'' 

''Wait, Jimin cuts him off.  ''Jiaying Queen, as in his wife?!'' He asks, and Jimin takes his father's silence as a ''Yes'' 

''Jiaying Queen?'' Yoongi asks, the name rings a bell...

''You cheated on mom with your best friend's wife? What the actual fuck?!'' 

''Wait, Damon, as in the Damon Queen?'' Yoongi asks. 

''Yeah, why?'' 

''You crossed the most wanted dealer in South Korea?'' His eyes were as wide as they could possibly go. ''I can't believe what I'm hearing? How are you still alive?'' 

''5-6 years ago, Damon wasn't who he is now. He was a caring man who loved his wife and life.'' 

''Until you took his wife.'' Jimin mumbles. 

''I know, but he wasn't treating her right, and your mother and I were having issues at the time.'' 

''Unbelievable...'' Jimin's hands flew in the air and landed at his sides with a loud slap. He stands up. ''What issues? You left one night and ended up never coming back.'' The tears were already streaming down his face. ''When you did come back, you divorced her without an explanation. I had to watch her wither away in drugs, alcohol and constantly having to watch her so she doesn't end her life.'' He pauses. ''I guess I wasn't watching hard enough. You didn't show up to her funeral, to check up on me-- Ugh!'' He exclaims and storms off up the stairs. 

''Jimin!'' Yoongi chases after him. He grabs him midway into his bedroom. The younger burst out crying onto Yoongi's shoulder, the older grabbing ahold of him. ''Shh...'' Yoongi solace, ''It's fine.'' 

''I-I just don't get it.'' Jimin pulls away wiping his eyes. ''After eight years, he comes back and doesn't even apologize.'' Yoongi could do nothing but comfort him. He knows all too well how hurt he was when his father was in the mix. 

As he comforts Jimin in his room, a pissed off Jin decides to finish the conversation in the living room. 

''You just pissed off Jimin, I already hate you a little more than I did when you walked into the room...'' He sits down. ''So let's make this quick, and summarize your point.'' 

''Short version, Damon probably wants revenge for what I did. He can't get to me because I'm off the grid, so he's going after Jimin.'' He explains. 

''How do you know?'' 

''Come on Jimin, your judgment may be clouded by your resentment towards me, but don't deny anything.'' He points out. 

''My judgment isn't clouded, yours obviously was when you slept with your friend's wife-'' 

''Jin?'' Namjoon calls his name with a warning tone. 

Clearing his throat, he gets back on the topic just when Jimin is coming from down the stairs with Yoongi in front of him. 

''So what do we do?'' Jimin asks... 

''I don't really know.'' He looks up. 

''Useless.'' Jin mumbles. 

''I came to warn you. Because I know how dangerous Damon is now. Stay off his radar is the best I could do.'' 

''Great, you made your point. Get out-- now.'' He points to the door. Jimin walks over and opens it for him. 

He gets up and walks towards it. He pauses and looks at him. ''I am sorry about what happened.'' 

''Do not pretend to care. It's fake.'' He replies with wide, red eyes. 

''If that's how you feel. But I approve of your boyfriend I assume, he seems to care about you.'' Jimin stood there quiet, slightly shocked that he picked up on that. ''I'm very observant Jimin. You're still my son, after all, nothing can change that.'' He smiles. 

''You want to bet?'' He slams the door shut in his face. 

''Are you-'' Jin was about to ask. 

''I'm fine. Let's not talk about it.'' He nods and walks up the stairs. Yoongi who was leaning on the counter table just looked at the water bottle in his hand contemplating. 

Jimin was broken before, and seeing his dad again, probably shattered him into dust. How was Yoongi going to fix that?
