Jung Kook Retrospected POV
(AN: I use big words but still suck at spelling XD )

Everytime the clock strikes 1 in the afternoon Mr. Choi would enter my father's study and sit in front of me.
"Hello Jung Kook" He is incredibly robotic, "Tell me everything that happened this morning and last night, and please include your dreams". I always thought it strange that an adult would want to know how a kid's day went like they don't have lives of their own. Especially this guy.

"Uhm well, I got home from school, did my homework, played with Jjangu, and Jimin, then went to bed..."

"Yes? What time?"

"As always Mr. Choi 8 pm" This is the fifth day. I was running out of words. My school is not too far so every lunch time I go back home just to have these sessions. Then come back 1 hour later.

"Hmmm, anything that you thought was interesting through out last night?"

"Not really, oh well Jimin brought patbingsu and we ate it before finally going to bed!" I smiled thinking of the good patbingsu.

"I mean the visions you speak of, anything?"

"N-no" I answered very nervous as Mr. Choi scribbled more.

"What is that? Why do you always have that?" Again whenever I am the one asking, always I was ignored.

"How about your recent dream. Jung Kook?" He look up, smiled small.

"I don't dream Sir" He nods.

I really don't. Jimin said everyone dreams and just forgets them, its impossible not to have dreams he says. But I know for a fact I don't. Because when I close my eyes at night, everything stops for me, it feels like I closed my eyes for 1 minute and when they open its morning.

"not..remember....dreams" Mr. Choi spoke as he wrote.

I stared at the clock. its been fifteen minutes. Fifteen more then.

"Jung Kook, how are your parents?"
I look back to Mr. Choi
"What do you mean?"

"How. Are. Your. Parents?" Again he smiled this time he did not masked his irritation, and ironically , despite giving me his time and attention my mind knows that I had always been ignored.

I hated Mr. Choi.

-------------------------

"See you tomorrow!" Mr.Choi faked his smile towards my parents and left me in the doorway with them.

"Son! I heard some improvements" My father probably been told that I had no visions for how many days.

"My synesthesia isn't going away dad!" I sarcastically commented and walked away from my father knowing that he was talking about my clairvoyance . I heard him huff and soon he pulled me harshly.

"You would not understand you BRAT! I am doing everything to keep us safe, to keep those rumors at bay!" Father shook me and I could feel myself holding my breath, I was scared. My father is not kind but never had he lifted his hands against us before, this is new.

"Let him go!" Someone yanked me from grasps. Jimin pushed me behind him. Father purse his lips and I saw his patience disappirate. He slapped Jimin with the back of his hand. Jimin collapsed.

"JIMIN!" I kneeled and hugged my hyung tight. Jimin was trying to move his lips, which was bleeding a lot.

"STEP AWAY FROM MY SONS!" Our mother soon appeared in front of us. She pushed our father away. He attempted to hit her but what she said next made him leave.

"LAY ONE MORE FINGER AT ANYONE OF US AND I WILL HAVE SEO JOON RUNNING AFTER YOU !"

Father did return however, 2 days later. Just when I thought that the three of us were beginning to be happy.

"Jung Kook" Father called me that night of his return.

"Father?"

"Come please" Father turned and I followed him in his study.

"Yes father?"

"I was thinking of, a vacation"
"Oh?"
"For the family" He was sitting at the sofa, not really looking at me.
"That's..." Am I supose to be happy about this?

"But don't tell them first okay! I want it as a surprise!" Father smiled at me. "It'll be betweens us Jeons! Yeah?"

"But dad...we're all Jeons"
As soon as those words left my lips he frowned and stood quick.

"That's enough nonsense boy! go to bed!"

Three days later...

"Father its been a day, When will Jimin and mom arrive here in Jeju?" Father was speaking with a maid.

"They are not coming."
I was confused. What is he saying?

"Jung Kook. I have to go."

"W-where are you going dad?"

"Home"

"Oh are we going back now?"

"I am. You'll stay here"
"Oh, what time will they arr-"SLAP!!

"I DON'T HAVE A RETARDED SON SO STOP ACTING LIKE ONE!"

"Fa-father?!" I cried as my face burned.

"Jeoyeon! I told you to bring him to his room now, ARE YOU DEAF!"

The maid still in shock of what she saw started to scamper towards me.

"I will have no one laughing at my name so you stay here boy! Just in case you plan to act out again."

"Father!" I run to him but two maids had held me down "Please sir, stop or he will hurt you more!"
"Master Jung Kook please stay down, just wait please!"

"No! Dad! don't leave me here DAD!"

It had been another day. I keep dazing off, crying when I remember what had happen. The maids doing all they can to make me smile, eat and not cry.
A day I kept thinking about mom.

Are they looking for me?

Mr. Choi visits every 3 days. I preferred to be left alone in my room rather than face that horrible man.

One day a maid came back from the main land. She handed me a letter from Jimin. Reading the letter made me cry out my eyes.

Mother had been beaten, she is still in the hospital. She called and reported my father for kidnapping his own son. My father made the accusation nulled. He probably paid a lot. Jimin was sent to a boarding school somewhere in South Korea, he is prohibited from coming home.

Mr. Choi still comes. I started seeing him just for the sake of talking to someone. Except with every passing day I am loosing interest in spoken words. Mr. Choi bends everything I say so why bother?

"You know my services are not cheap so why not make good use of it?"

I know you only want my father's money you monster!

"I saw your mother today, she came back home"

Don't you dare say her name you asshole!

"Congratulations by the way, I heard your class will be moving up a grade? You are still home schooled right"
He smirked. This fucker!

"Alright. Anything else you want to say?"

As if I would trust you with anything.

"Shame, just when I thought you were improving. You probably need divine intervention" He shook his head and left. That demon should go back to hell!

I stared outside. The waves crashing was the only sound I hear.

"Mom?!" I cry for the nth time
"Jimin?! Help me!"
