Dark Side (Kim Taehyung & Kim So Hyun)
Episode 19 - Feeling

Review:

Namjoon could only lick his lips, then exhale. His eye lens had turned shiny because of the beautiful girl who suddenly appeared.

Namjoon looked at the girl sitting inside. But suddenly, Taehyung and Jimin walk over to Namjoon and So Hyun. The two men seemed to have mixed eyes. Between disbelief, confusion, and cold.

Jimin stared around with a frown in confusion, "What are you guys doing early in the morning in this locker hall?"

***

Namjoon instantly removed his gaze that looked so glaring because of his eye lens.

So Hyun who had seen the eye lens from his sunbae, was still silent. He was glued to the shiny color of the lens. Taehyung walked towards the locker whose door was still open. As for Jimin, he walked over to So Hyun.

"Why is this hall a mess? You guys did something, huh?" jimin asked again as his pair of eyes caught one of the lockers collapsing. The books So Hyun carried in his bag were also scattered like trash.

So Hyun and Namjoon remained silent. Namjoon rubbed his eyes and exhaled heavily, "It's okay. So Hyun almost got hit by the locker."

Hearing the reason based on a lie from Namjoon, So Hyun immediately looked at Jimin with a confident look. In fact, it's a lie. "Y-yes. Thas right. I slipped and the locker almost hit me."

Taehyung did not care about their chat. But, he was able to listen to their chat clearly.

He walked over to the locker that So Hyun knew belonged to. He picked up the scattered books, along with an old piece of paper. He looked at the three books he had in his arms. His two slightly sharp eyes, immediately squinted. He quickly picked up the paper, then read it.

"I just found out, if it's almost a locker, you can be slammed into it. That too... Why did the big window open? If he's helping you, why is that window open?" Taehyung sneered while reading the old paper. Unfortunately, the paper was just plain paper without a single scribble.

"Ah, that..." So Hyun turned his head towards Taehyung. "No! Don't touch!" The girl immediately got up and galloped towards Taehyung.

Jimin stared at So Hyun's panicked reaction as Taehyung touched the scattered books. As So Hyun ran in front of him, Jimin immediately grabbed So Hyun's arm and stopped the girl.

"What if he touches the book? Are you keeping a secret from us, huh?" serdik Jimin's. He also had time to swerve towards Namjoon who was silencing his mouth so as not to make a sound.

"La Bella Muerte?" taehyung said with a heavy voice. Namjoon and So Hyun immediately exchanged glances. Their faces looked panicked.

Make sure the book is not read by anyone else...

Namjoon's words when in the library at that time back ringed in So Hyun's mind. He took Jimin's hand off his arm quickly, then ran towards Taehyung. The girl was about to push Taehyung to release the books.

The man, who was reading a few paragraphs from the book called Muertte, glanced at the girl who was running towards him. Quickly, he raised both of his hands grasping the three books at once.

"Give me!" so Hyun said a little loudly.

"If you're not keeping anything with that man, then this book I can read. After all, this is just an ordinary book. Why are you and that man so scared when I read this book?" Taehyung said as he stayed away from So Hyun.

Jimin looked at the two people who had been away recently. He can no longer say anything. Taehyung whose mind was too logical with the mystery was too powerful.

Sometimes, Jimin can only keep quiet when his friend begins to suspect a new figure for no apparent reason. But for Namjoon, Jimin believed in it.

"Give me my book!" So Hyun did not comment on Taehyung's words in the slightest. It was still tugging at Taehyung's armpits stretched out over it.

With a bit of violence, Taehyung flicked his arm so that So Hyun would stay away. The effort was successful, but inevitably So Hyun's body slightly lost balance. Taehyung stared intently at the girl, he also threw the same gaze at Namjoon for a moment.

"I became suspicious of you" Taehyung said. "Why has your nature changed so recently? And why... You spend more time with a suspicious figure? Are you one of 'them'?" Taehyung asked with a cold look.

So Hyun was silent not answering. He took his eyes off Taehyung. He should not have stirred up a sense of annoyance so that Taehyung does not suspect. But what power, because he was too panicked, he reflexively forbade Taehyung from touching the book.

"Then you did all this? You asked him to kill your own friend? I don't think with your way of mind, Kim So Hyun!" keep Taehyung up again.

"Not... I'm not a part of them. Really!" So Hyun started talking and dodged. But it's true, isn't it? He's not really part of 'them'.

"Then? Just because this book was touched, you get angry like that? Now I want to ask..." Taehyung returned the books to So Hyun's persistence with a bit of roughness.

So rough and tight, So Hyun's stomach was slightly distressed and made the girl sniff a little, "Who is actually keeping secrets?"

So Hyun looked at Taehyung with confused eyes. He recalled what happened a few days ago. The incident where he accuses and gets angry with Taehyung about an incident that concerns Eun Soo. Taehyung stared at him sharply for quite a long duration, then he ended it with his silence.

"You, right? Not me! But I don't want to force you to tell, because... Because you already have a more certain person. Why do you believe that guy?!" Taehyung's question is getting bigger. His voice pressed down slightly and pointed towards Namjoon.

"Taehyung-ah, stop..." Jimin finally retorted from a distance. He came back as a divorcee who had no idea what was happening.

Taehyung glared at Jimin, then smiled cynically. He fumbled her cheeks for a while, then brought her closer to So Hyun. So Hyun turned away from Taehyung's cheeks, so that his lips would not touch the man's cheeks.

"You remember this bruise? It's because of who? It's because of you. You hit me without knowing why I was and Jimin lied to you. But, I'll never demand you to tell me what you're keeping right now..."

So Hyun stared at the bluish bruise that had faded slightly. He felt his heart break. The girl tightened her hold on the ancient books and lowered her head.

He feels guilty now. But there is a truth to Taehyung's words, lately his nature is easily changeable uncertain. He also doesn't know why.

"That's not the secret. He also only found out a few days ago." In the end, Namjoon was also involved in the quarrel. Anyway, he was involved with that too.

Taehyung, Jimin, and So Hyun turned at the same time towards Namjoon.

Taehyung snorted dejectedly, "Oh, so. Then you can solve your own problems. I think he's the one who's going to solve everything for you. And, he is also the one who will probably protect you even more." Taehyung said very cynically.

So Hyun looked back at Taehyung. His mouth is a little bit open. His guilt was more and more rounded, "Tae-Taehyung-ah.." he muttered softly.

Taehyung snorted, then turned his body quickly. He slightly took a deep breath, as it was seen from his slightly raised shoulder.

Then he put his hand in his pocket, "Do you see now? Who was actually being lied to? Me or you? Jimin-ah, let's go! It seems, we are no longer considered."

Jimin slowly opened his eyes. For the second time, he became neutral and knew nothing. It is like a weathered wood that drifts the ocean currents. Wherever the wind blows and the waves go, it will be carried away. Yes, he felt himself like that wood for now.

Taehyung immediately took the step of leaving the locker hall alone.

Namjoon looked at So Hyun who looked like he wanted to cry. The girl looked at the back of the man who had poured out a sense of disappointment directly at her.

Jimin looked around, then hissed. He ran after Taehyung's steps that were getting further away.

While running after Taehyung, he whispered softly to So Hyun, "I'm sorry, So Hyun-ah."

So Hyun who could hear clearly a brief whisper from Jimin was. He looked at the two who had helped and were there for him was lethargic. Shortly after the two men disappeared, he immediately sat down. A patch of clear water fell from his eye patch. Ah no, not just a scroll, the water flowed nonstop.

"Sorry.." said Namjoon who is now behind So Hyun.

He stood with his head lowered to look at So Hyun who was sitting down. "I'm sorry... I think I gave you the book at the time..."

"That's it," So Hyun interrupted Namjoon's speech quickly.

He wiped the water with the back of his hand. "If they leave me like this, then I've protected them from killing their next target, right?"

"Ah... You sure?" tanya Namjoon hesitated. He could not catch the slightest sense of calm on So Hyun's face.

"I'm sure. Wasn't it me they were after all this time? So, if the two of them aren't with me anymore, then no one will die, right?" So Hyun replied by trying to get up from his position.

"But I don't think you can be alone." said Namjoon again.

"I'm willing. I'm sure it is. Never mind. As long as they're not targeted, I'll be fine. With them knowing this, they will not hinder or help me. So. they may not be the next target. Kan, I'm alone." explained So Hyun, the girl stuffed the three ancient books into the locker.

.

Suddenly, the school environment became crowded with students who began to arrive. Many of them talked while walking to their classes, some even stopped by the locker hall for a while.

So Hyun locked his locker quickly, then draped his bag on one of his shoulders. He exhaled, then smiled faintly at Namjoon.

"Thank you, sunbae. I appreciate what you said," he said a little lethargic.

"Then, I'm going to class now, huh? Annyoung." So Hyun waved his hand slightly stiffly.

The girl walked with her head slightly lowered. Namjoon looked at So Hyun who started to disappear among the students who were passing by in the hallway. Then he looked to his left, then breathed heavily.

"It's a danger." said Namjoon slowly, then walked quickly to his class.

***

The class felt so different for So Hyun for now. He circulated his slightly dejected gaze because of the incident this morning. When he got to his seat, Jimin's bag wasn't there.

The backpack Jimin used to wear was on the back desk by the window. So Hyun frowned as he found out his countryman was not Jimin.

"So Hyun-ah," call someone. It was the voice of a woman, and it was the girl wearing glasses back then.

"Y-yes?" sahut So Hyun listlessly.

"From now on I'll be your friend. Jimin asked me to exchange my friends. He said you agreed. In fact, you're the one who asked." explained the glasses girl while correcting the position of her glasses with her index finger.

So Hyun was silent for a moment. He slightly licked his dry lips, then looked at Jimin who was playing with the male students in his class. Hearing the explanation of the glasses girl, So Hyun again recalled his words a few days ago.

"And I hope that after the break is over, you don't sit next to me anymore."

He recalled his own words when he was disappointed with Taehyung and Jimin. Yes, this is not after the break, but before the entrance bell rang.

So Hyun's heart was getting worse because of the guilt that was becoming more. He exhaled his sorrowful breath and rubbed his forehead until his bangs were lifted up. He couldn't believe it, Jimin would keep that word. Although, they 'four' made up.

"So Hyun-ah?" call the girl again. "You all right?"

So Hyun regained his senses from the cursory reflection. He shook his head lightly and fixed his eyes a few times.

Shortly after, he smiled faintly or rather bitterly, "Ah, yes. I asked Jimin to switch seats with you. Me? I'm it's okay. Just a little dizzy."

The girl's forehead shriveled slightly, then loosened slightly. He looked at So Hyun with his glasses lens slightly blurry due to the steam of his breath, "You sure? I think you're fighting with him. "

So Hyun put his bag on the table, then looked at the girl who was now his best friend. He smiled back, "Yes, I'm sure. Besides, can't Jimin play with a girl friend all the time? Let him hang out with the others as well." So Hyun spoke again with conviction. Although, forced.

The glasses girl exhaled, "Yes, already. Whatever you say. But I'm still not..."

So Hyun immediately interrupted the girl's words quickly. He began to smile his story with dry lips, "I told you. I'm it's okay. Jimin and I are not fighting. Even if you fight, it will not be as severe as people who are dating. Just relax."

"Alright," said the girl relented. He did not want to force So Hyun to tell him. This time, he sat down with So Hyun. "I went to the library first, huh?"

"Yes." So Hyun said briefly, a cheerful smile that he forced still adorned his facial expression. But that smile did not last long.

After the glasses girl left class with her groupmate, So Hyun sighed.

Suddenly his eyes felt hot, he also felt the roundness of clear water re-assembled in his eyes. He supported his chin with one hand supported also on the table. It withstands the heat and aie's circles as best it can. She doesn't want to cry in class. Moreover, crying for his own best friend.

Slowly, both of his eyelids closed. Her tears just flowed straight from the fertilizer and instantly fell onto the table. He feels very guilty now.

In his mind, he cursed himself. He also did not know why Taehyung could be that angry. And worse, he also just found out that is the real target. Taehyung's words of disappointment returned to spin and ring.

He lowered his buttocks, then folded his hands on the table. He was down on his own hand. Next to his eyes that were visible from a crease of the hand, still issued a clear circle earlier.

"You're right... I lied to you..."

***

Taehyung walked to a place, which was none other than his favorite place all along.

He closed the door of the room hard, then locked it with a silver door. He gritted his teeth hard, then kicked the table there. His feelings suddenly overflowed.

"Damn it!!" kesalah.

The noise continued to be heard in the room. Taehyung was unceasingly hitting the wall of the room. He also screamed. Fortunately the room was like a vacuum, no one would hear his screams from outside.

He cursed out loud. Angry, disappointed, and there is another feeling that he feels in his mind. Jealous... He felt that he was a little jealous.

"Why?!" taehyung's last curse made him accidentally let out his tears just like that.

The man's left hand was bruised and flushed. The palm of the hand seemed to be unable to function to grasp something.

Taehyung still held the weight of his body that stood firmly on the wall that had become the place of his 'victim'. His breathing was irregular, so a loud sigh could be heard.

Not knowing how much lung capacity he had, Taehyung unceasingly exhaled loudly. He looked at the wall before him with a slight look of eyes filled with disappointment.

He clenched his teeth again, and punched the wall again. As a result, the bruises on his hands became more and more.

The man was still angry. I don't know how many tears have just fallen. Taehyung slightly clenched his hands that were resting on the wall. He lowered his head for a moment. Shortly after, he lifted his head and looked back at the wall.

"Why... You lied to me?" said the man with a voice that sounded a little heavy.

The doorbell rang loudly, but Taehyung did not rush out of the room. He kept both his hands on the wall.

Her tears stopped flowing. In fact, his gaze was no longer sad. Except, creepy and sharp. He hit the wall again. The final blow caused a foreign sound in the ear. His middle and ring fingers may be broken.

Even though he felt a biting pain, he remained silent and focused himself on his overflowing emotions.

However, that sharp and sinister gaze did not last long. A patch of clear water fell back from his eyes. Taehyung finally let go of selfishness in his anger, he also could not dodge with his own mind and feelings.

He looked down again, feeling the pain that was so felt in his left hand. He was sure that the bones of two of his five fingers were fractured. Taehyung harbored the pain and refocused himself on his feelings.

"You knew... My disappointment seemed bigger than you at the time. Because.. I'm starting to like you.." he murmured slowly.
