A sudden ear-piercing scream resonate through the house. Mark was the first one to run into her room, no one has the very deafening voice of a girl.

"Younghee, are you in there?"

No sound was heard. He knocked while shouted, till he actually banged the hard wooden door. Jeno who just woke up came closer to him.

"What just happened?"

"Don't you hear Younghee's scream? Now there's no reply at all."

The others finally wake up and went to the aimed location. Taeyong made his way to the door beside Mark. He immediately knocked the door.

"Younghee? Open the door for us please."

And again, not even a sound of footstep was heard. Taeyong took out a bunch of keys and unlock her door with one gold key.

Mark was the first one to attack the room like there's someone inside it. He saw Younghe on the floor, unconscious. He checked her pulse. It was slow and almost hard to recognize.

"She's still alive. But what really happened?"

Jaehyun pushed aside her pillows, he even discareded the bedsheet to see what's behind it. Some members separated to find the real reason as there was zero sign of someone breaking into her room.

"I guess I know it now..."

Chenle widened his eyes when he saw her mother's special gun under the bed. Every NCT members already knew the story of her life since Younghoon once explained it to them all.

"Wasn't it should be in Spanish? The polices there took it years ago right after the incident."

Taeyong took the gun, caressing and scanning it. "This is the original gun, it has the original mark under this."

"The real question is, where the hell she gets this?"

Every eyes now were stuck into one figure, Qian Kun. He is the brain of the gang, it also helped him to gain some scientists, forensic team, and even police officer all around the world.

"I don't know. Don't even ask me why, me and this girl aren't even related."

"Why don't you ask the police officer there. It's my dictation, Kun."

He sighed, taking his words as a note that he would obey. Kun is a leader that could deal very clean and smoothly with everyone. If one leader needs a war to end everything, he just needs his sexy brain to do so.

That's one of the reason why NCT stay winning in the term of genius.

"Jaemin and Winwin, move her to the ward. Jisung and Yangyang both of you should try to track anyone by anything inside this house, once you find out who's the offenders just tell me."

All of the directed members split into teams to do their works. Mark was still there, frozen and confused just like the others. Jaehyun came to him, trying to give him a friendly pat on the shoulder.

"Mark,"

"No, Jaehyun. You don't want to see me mad, don't you?"

Jaehyun sighed, still standing there to talk to him. "Look, I know I was wrong but I didn't even try to make her love me back."

Mark's breath went heavy as Jaehyun threw the words. He then faced his friend, eyeing him up and down.

"Well, you don't receive one. No wonder you lose your girlfriend, you can't even let someone live happily,"

"Lee Minhyung!"

Mark shut his eyes, everyone didn't just witnessed a raging Jaehyun after awhile. Jaehyun launched a punch that striked right on Mark's left jaw.

He spat out the blood, laughing bitterly.

"I still hadn't found my soulmate and why the fuck are you mentioning her ever again?!"

Jaehyun again went closer to the youngest leader, pulling him by the collar and pushing him up to the wall. Mark couldn't take it, he kept on coughing like crazy.

"Jae-Jaehyun let me go!"

Jaehyun backed off, letting of his collar making him fell numb on the cold floor. Mark coughed violently, grabbing Jaehyun's leg tiredly.

"I'm sorry bro... I didn't mean it..."

"You should be thankful I didn't go rougher on you, Younghee could feel it too."

Mark now just learnt a lesson,

don't ever provoke him again. And he regrets his misunderstoods and overthinking that mixed at once.

It could kill him.

Younghee's eyes fluttered open due to the soft contact between her hands with someone's hands that even more warmer.

Her soulmate was sleeping soundly, waiting for her to wake up after the incident she couldn't remember.

Mark abruptly jolted up when Younghee kissed his cheek, he missed her soft small touches so bad.

He had been ignoring her for the past few days. He stretched, letting out some groan when a bone-cracking sound was heard. The girl that had been lying on the bed for the past fourteen hours sat up, adjusting her night gown.

"Was your sleep good? No bad dreams?"

She shook her head, leaning her head against the headboard. She then shifted a bit, patting a space beside her.

"Lay down here with me, it's been awhile since I hold you close."

Mark went into the spacious bed, feeling like he will fell into a deep slumber in her fragile arms. He inhaled her scent, his favourite one.

"I want to be the first person you think of in your tough times."

Her sudden words sent some shivers down his spine. She adores him that much, she fell all over him.

And yet, some things are really against them day by day.

"Forgive me, chubs. I'm not the good one, but we are meant to be and I'm beyond happy with that...

...it's just that I'm too busy on ruling my own world."

As seconds passing by, a kiss landed on the male's lips. He was shocked, but he closed his eyes, shutting it perfectly. Their lips moved into an unknown addictive rythm. He held her jaw, caressing his thumbs down her soft cheeks.

It doesn't last that long, she pecked his nose as a closure.

"We promised to stay with each other right? I don't mind as long as I have you by my side."

i swear the plot twist of the year (lol) is coming soon.
