"Just call me V", he spoke up again, with an amused smile.

There was something about his smile that made me believe him. It made me believe him, that his smile was real. The way his eyes twinkled and his lips stretched from ear to ear.

I returned the gesture and turned back around when he walked over to my side. I looked at the beautiful scenery infront of me.

The sunset was taking place. The harbour of this kingdom shone beneath the red and orange lights of the sky. The town looked peaceful.
A light breeze of ocean and flowers was in the air. It was calming and really beautiful.

I smiled to myself and closed my eyes to enjoy the sunlight that shone on my face.

"It's beautiful, isn't it? ", I asked him and turned to him.

"Yeah...it really is.", he said while looking at me. A frown got visible on my face when I remembered that I had to attend this gala and go back inside.

I turned around and looked at the gate with a rather sad expression. V seemed to notice.

"You don't want to go back, do you?", he asked me slightly amused.

"To be honest, no. Everything in there is sickening. The way the people smile at eachother fakely and ask for their hands just because they want their money.", I spat and looked back at V.

He nodded and also fixicated his gaze onto the door. His face got blank from any emotion and he looked like he didn't want to go back in there either.

"Well, what else can we do?", he asked me and walked back inside. I looked at his back while he was walking away and turned around again. I glanced at the view one last time, before going back inside too.

The rest of the gala went like every did. People laughed, danced and ate.
I was bored and sick of the same thing.

Suddenly, a voice boomed through the loudspeaker.

"Welcome everyone. ", everyone turned around and looked at the man who stood on the little stage.

"Firstly, thank you all for coming. I'm very happy because without you, all this wouldn't be able to happen. Today, I wanted to celebrate something very special. I wanted to celebrate the reunion with an old friend of mine. Sadly, he couldn't attend today...but he sent us something. Today I want to celebrate the engagement of my son, Min Yoongi and his soon to be fiancé, KANG SOYEON!", he spoke out brightly.

And that was when everything stopped. It seemed like my world stopped and I forgot how to breathe. My hands started to tremble and breathing ragged.

No...

He couldn't have done this...

Tears filled my eyes, but I wiped them away quickly. I got my composure again and made my face clear from emotions. All the lights seemed to be on me, while I was walking up the stage. I looked into the big crowd of cheering people.

Fake

All fake

I looked at their uninterested faces while they were pretending to be happy for us. I also faked a smile and looked at the king, or should I say my soon to be father in law.

My gaze went to the other side of the stage. A young and handsome boy came up the stage. He had very pale skin a and brown eyes. His hair was darker than Vs and his figure was very slim. His eyes were narrowed at me and his face slightly resembled the one of a cat.

I looked back into the crowd to search for a certain person, but frown slightly when there's no trace of him.

Yoongi was already beside me and he stood as stiff as a tree. All the sounds around me started to fade and a little whisper echoed in my ear.

'Kang Soyeon'

The voice was as deep as the ocean and it's roughness resembled its big waves. A shiver crawled up my spine and my body became colder than the nights of winter.

I looked around to search for the owner of the voice, but I couldn't find anything.

Strange

I looked back into the crowd to search for V, but there was still no sign of him.

The rest of the night went as usual. The same announcements, talks, gestures and food. Nothing was new to me and I was bored the whole night.

It happened that Vs face flashed through my mind one or two times. I even kept looking for him, but to no avail. It was like he disappeared into thin air after going back inside.

I was curious. He was like a mistery. He came out of nowhere. He just looked right through my soul, like he was a mind reader, and disappeared.

But well, most of the time I had to think about my father. I thought of how cruel someone can be to marry his daughter to a stranger. Of course, for money. I was angered and disappointed of him. I didn't want to marry that Yoongi-guy.

Everyone was enjoying the night for themselves and everything seemed to go the right way. But everybody was ripped out of their chats and meals, when a shrill and loud scream echoed through the whole
room. With shocked faces, everyone looked at the origin of the voice, because there was a woman.

A women, her chest covered in blood, and as lifeless as the corpse in a cemetery. I scanned the whole room, and then my eyes stopped on a certain person.

V

He was standing in the crowd, and looked at the dead women. He had a blank face, like he wasn't shocked nor surprised.

He stood there still, in the crowd while lookin at the corpse. Slowly, a smile formed itself on his lips, and his hand twitched a few times. He gave everyone a last glance, and escaped the scene through a nearby corridor, and even if it was very faint, I still managed to catch the red dot that soaked through his sleeve.
