Taehyung's Point of View:

I ran and ran. "Please s-someone help me" I cried to myself. This is it. My death? My feet were hurting, and I was shaking cold. My breathing kept running while my heart was racing. I immediately stopped and saw a young couple walking. 'This is my chance.' I cried out. 'Freedom?' I thought.

"Excuse me! Please help me." I said getting the young couple's attention. "Oh my- are you okay little one?" One of them speaks out, "N-No my boyfriend has been hurting me and I need help-" "It's okay. We'll help you. You can come with us." The man smiles as I thanked both of them. 'Finally thank god I'm finally getting some help.'

We arrived at this huge place and my face awed in sight. "I'm sorry if I bothered you guys." I said, bowing my head. "No, you didn't. you know it's good that you got the chance to get out of there and ask for help." The man said smiling at me.

"Once we're inside you can take a bath and relax at the moment then we'll talk okay?" I nod and follow the couple inside they're home.

The couple had a nice home even if they're alone together. I continued to follow as one dropped me off in front of a room. "Okay, this will be your room for I'm not sure how long but hey... you know it's good to see someone here better than seeing your husband 24/7" The man windshield laughs and lets me be on my own. I smiled and entered the room and my eyes awed inside.

The bed was about a queen size with all the blankets pastel pink. And there is a lot of furniture in here. I walked towards the closet and opened it seeing some pastel clothing. Such as skirts, shirts, crop tops, sweats, hoodies that looked long, thigh gear, chokers, earrings, makeup, etc. Man, this closet is loads of goods I really like.

Eventually I took out my usual pajama fit which is a sweatshirt and some shorts or sweats.

I awed in sight for the 10 million time and entered the bathroom. The bathroom was huge, and the tub & sink was a color of rose gold. I'm always surprised because I guess I was just really poor and could not afford any of these things.

I set my clothes down onto the counter and then I slowly took my own clothes off of me and threw them in a bin. I walk towards the shower and turn the water on feeling warm water on my hands. Once it was fine I stepped inside and closed the clear door then sighed feeling the water hit my back. I haven't felt a nice shower in a month to be honest. Before I was always forced to take a 10-minute shower and use only cold water. Since I escaped that bastard I finally feel safe.

~1 hour later ~

After my relaxation I stepped out grabbing a towel, wrapping it around my waist then, I took my clothes and put them on. I can't wear a short sleeve shirt because of my bruises.

After I'd done my business I went downstairs and saw the couple eating dinner.

"Hey, I set down your food over there. Please sit and eat with us, don't be shy." The man said. I thanked him and sat down at my area grabbing chopsticks and began to nom nom.

"So, can you introduce yourself please?" I set my chopsticks down for the moment  and began speaking. "Uhm. My name is Kim Taehyung. I am 18 years old and I love studying & being in college." I said with a smile.

"Aw you're officially my child now Tae. I'm Jin and this is my husband Namjoon." Jin said, giving me a friendly smile. "Oh, and don't give him anything he might break it. I don't think you want your precious things gone. *windshield laugh*" I chuckled along with Jin meanwhile, Namjoon is pouting.

"So, you don't really have to answer this but what were you doing outside alone?" Joon said as I took a deep breath.

"My boyfriend is abusive towards me. And he has been abusing me for 1 year and 3 months. His name is Lee Eun-Sang and um... Eun-Sang and I have been together for 2 years now. At first, when I met him he was kind, sweet, and a loving boyfriend." I said smiling at our first memories.

"But then, it was around our 1-year anniversary and he assumed I cheated on him and talked to other guys for a long time which I didn't. I felt my heart broken because he didn't love me anymore and didn't trust me. Ever since then he stopped kissing, hugging, not giving attention, and he just hits me. Then one night he came home drunk and... started to yell at me. He grabbed his belt and beat me with it onto my thighs and arms and also my face. He called me a s-slut and told me to k-kill m-myself so-"

"Okay tae. That's enough you don't have to tell us more. We understand and I'm sorry you went through a lot." I wiped my tears and felt someone holding my hand.

"Tae... is it okay if we can see you're bruises if your comfortable with that?" I nodded and got up lifting my sweater and Jin's eyes widened. They both gasped in shock and I pointed & explained the bruises Eun-Sang made on me. I had them everywhere.

"Thank you tae for showing us. Follow me so I can treat your bruises." Jin says and gives me a soft smile while I follow him like a puppy.

Jin and I went to this small infirmary room when it was honestly cute. I sat and waited for Jin to treat me.

Moments later, I was good as new, and I gave Jin a bow and headed to my room. I laid on my bed feeling the blankets all over me as I got so comfortable inside the bed. I had a pillow with me to cuddle and I sighed. Is this freedom?

Jin's Point of View:

I was sad to hear Taehyung's story. No one should ever go through what he went through. I'm glad he found us.

"You okay babe?" My hubby said rubbing my back and I nodded. "I'm okay, just worried." Suddenly an Idea popped up.

"Hey... I think I know someone who'll take care of Tae." "Who?"

"Remember Jk." Joon gives me a 'I think I know what you're doing' face. "Jeon?" "Yes!! He'll like tae and I'm sure taw will too. They can help each other! I'm sure Jeon can keep him safe."

...

"Do you have his number?"
