What has he done wrong for gods to be so cruel? The last person who he could show the real him without harsh judgements was laying in his arms, her body cold as ice and face hard as stone.

"GRACE" he shakes her vigorously "wake up please please wake up"  his begging eyes moved to her "father" for help but his cold eyes showed no mercy, Tae was trembling in fear not for himself but for her, is this why she always looked lost  .... is this why she always wore a sad smile while going "Home". How could a father be like this?

Grace is his daughter, his only daughter. No matter how precious she was to him but for Jihoon she was not more than a threat to his honour and his duty.

Tae feared not her father but the man who was wearing long black cloaks and hard eyes, the one Tae saw in his dreams, the one who took Grace away from him.

His footsteps rang in the silent room, it made Tae tear up more. He held her tight not wanting to let go but his affection was nothing in front of Jihoon's wand, a swing was enough to push him away.

His nightmare came to life, only Grace was not watching him but he knew how she would if she was awake, she won't recognize him now, she is not Grace anymore.

"Don't ever come near her, never try to find her ever again because she won't remember you. A sly smile shadowed her father's face which represented his authority and fear and confidence"You have done enough damage. It's because of you I had to do this, ............not that I regret it" 

Within a second Tae was alone again, crying in the cold night ...... knowing what he had done.

"And to think I had high expectations from you" the voice sounded bored and emotionless. Tae was seeing the man for the first time. A dark aura lingered around him as he walked from the darkness and showed his huge figure in the dim lamplight. Grace's hand trembled in fear and it made him anxious.

His curiosity was answered before any questions.

"Dad...." Grace's shaky voice gave away the identity.

"It's her dad," he thought vaguely
but why is she ........

Her grip got tighter and it made Tae's hand numb

"Grace why are you..." He wanted to ask her the reason behind the fear but

" Shhhh..." she shushed him and jerked him behind her, he was quite tall for him to hide behind her but it was an act of love he felt from her. 'she is trying to protect me' he thought

"Ohhhh why do I keep seeing unexpected things" The man showed a fake smile, it made Taehyung's back hair stand. There was a feeling in the air that made Tae have a sense of deja vú as if he know what's gonna happen next, he knows and he don't want it to happen.

"How did you know I was here" Grace tried to sound strong but her voice didn't help, she was trembling but her eyes never lost her father's face.

"How can I not notice what you do when you're actions screams for attention .... if you were not so stupid as you are. You May care to use the "gifts" I get you" he played with his wand as he spoke, knowing the fear his words gave her. He enjoyed watching this ..... he liked the taste of power.

"What...what d-do you me-mean ?" Confused she backed away a little, her father's face was hard to read. Who knows what he might do next? Grace remembered the intercom, a little crowd would help them escape but she was too far from it ... she felt helpless not for herself but for Tae, how can she protect him when she is cause for this situation, all her happiness was drained away ... the fear was making her more and more weak ... as if her father's stare was sucking her last bits of energy.
