"The Sound of Silence"

“The Sound of Silence”
The Dining Table

//

The sound of silence was a deafening one as loud cracks of thunder roared through the dark night.

Seven out of the eight expected guests for that evening's dinner sat rigidly in their own respective seat. Their backs were straight but the thoughts that floated around each of their heads were anything but.

The eldest of the seven men cleared his throat awkwardly, but managed to grab the attention of tension-filled dining room.

Each head shot in his direction.

"Namjoon, I think we are all owed an explanation of what happened last night," the eldest man in the room said. "You know... The girl."

Namjoon simply nodded his head, but said nothing. The look in his eyes, however, promised to give the men the explanation they were owed.

Another crack of thunder shook the brightly lit dining room, making to the extravagant chandelier above to cower and shake – almost out of fear.

Just then, the wide doors that led into the dining room were opened. The door was pushed painfully slow but allowed the amethyst-eyed girl to finally be revealed.

None but three of the seven men knew what she looked like. The driver and the doctor that assisted in her escape the previous night, as well as Namjoon – the mastermind behind it all.

No one said a word but the wide smile that appeared on their leader's face was difficult to miss. Kim Namjoon, one of the most feared men in the northern hemisphere, stood up calmly and made his way across the dining room. He pulled out a seat at the end of the dining table for the girl to sit in, before proceeding to his own seat at the other end of the table.

Malia gulped.

"Welcome our guest warmly and whole-heartedly, men," Namjoon said at once, his gaze dancing around each face in the room.

Each man greeted Malia politely in fear of the leader, confusion still fogging up their thoughts.

Who was this girl? Why was she so important to them?

"Since I am the bridge between both parties, I shall take on the responsibility of introducing everyone," Namjoon said, making direct eye-contact with the girl across from him. "Is that okay?"

The girl nodded her head slightly, too afraid to speak up.

Kim Namjoon stood up smoothly as he straightened out any creases made to his white, formal shirt. He proceeded to roll up his sleeves as he spoke.

"My name is Kim Namjoon and I am the leader of Bangtan, a group of trained assassins," he spoke confidently.

More thunder roared.

"Bangtan is made up of seven members that are each trained and skilled in different forms of combat. To my left..." Namjoon's finger pointed to a cat-like man that was seated in the first chair to his left "... we have Min Yoongi, also known as Suga."
