Half Light

°CHAPTER 24°

"Taehyung-ah...please try to understand ...you're not like him", HyeShin tried to explain him

But he didn't listened to her and dashed out of the room, he went straight to the cafe

He saw Amber at the cashier's spot and words of his mother rang in his brain

"Are you crazy?!....how can you be so dumb?...do you think he will spare her life just because you're obeying him?"

He couldn't understand anything he just wanted to keep Amber safe ,he entered the cafe with a fake smile

"Good morning ", he chimed

"Well I would not say this a good morning ", Amber rolled her eyes

"Why?...did something happened?"

"Would you bother to tell me that why am I not supposed to go to my home?, what's going on? ,I've been sleeping here for 2 nights"

"Uh...I'll pick you up today then you're free to go to your home"

"You didn't came yesterday!", Amber said with a straight face

"I'm sorry I got caught up with something", Taehyung scratched the back of his neck

Then suddenly he felt an urge to suck her blood...the blood he's been craving for , the blood which will calm down his lust

Taehyung started to sweat, he shut his eyes tightly trying hard to control himself

"Are you okay? You're sweating",Jin asked coming from the kitchen

"What?...Taehyung are you feeling all right?",Amber touched his forehead

Taehyung grabbed her wrist and removed her hand from his forehead gently

"I-Iam okay... it's just the heater here maybe",he licked his lips while looking at the veins on her wrist

"I-I have to go to toilet", Taehyung  excused himself and rushed into the toilet, he quickly took out a small bottle of his potion and gulped it one go , his head became a bit dizzy, he shook his head and looked himself in the mirror

He could see the reflection of his father in himself , he closed his eyes and took deep breaths 

"Taehyung are you sure,you're okay? Let's go to hospital ", Amber knocked on the door

"No I'm fine!",Taehyung opened the door and came out

"Taehyung now can you tell me what's going on?", Jin crossed his arms

Now Jin and Taehyung were alone

"Not now Hyung...you're not ready for that"

"For what?...I'm not ready for what?",Jin was very curious

"Just wait for the right time...anyways leave it and let's focus on Amber's birthday...it's in 2 days",he smiled

"Oh yeah...I'm thinking to celebrate her birthday at cafe , we'll decorate the whole cafe and some of my other friends are also coming ",Jin suggested

"Oh that's cool", Tae gave a thumbs up

It was dusk , Taehyung and Amber were going home , hand in hand they were walking down the streets

"You know my birthday is coming?", Amber asked smilingly

"Yeah...I know and we're all gonna celebrate it together at the cafe...with balloons , party poppers, etc.", he cheered

"Celebrate?...really?...I never celebrated my birthday", she looked down with a sad smile

"Why?...not even with Jimin and Mina?", he asked curiously
