The sterile hospital room had transformed into a scene straight out of a psychological thriller and you couldn't believe your eyes. Jin lay still motionless in the hospital bed, his face pale and vulnerable. While to your surprise, Jimin was sprawled on the floor, equally unconscious. But despite the unpredictable sight what sent a shiver down your spine was the sight of a woman standing silently in the corner of the room, with a bloodied wound on her left shoulder and it was marring her clothing.

As the woman's gaze met yours, a sense of unease washed over you but you overcame it quickly as you moved swiftly toward the emergency button next to Jin's bed, and reached out with your free hand towards it while your other hand safely left the coffees you had brought by his nightstand. However, before you could complete your action, the woman uttered a name that froze you in your tracks—"BreeAhn".

You turned slowly, your heart pounding in your chest as you faced the woman. A strained smile was playing on her lips, adding an eerie layer to the situation.

"You are Y/N, aren't you? You sure have been getting involved with my son more than I would like," the woman said, her voice laced with a mix of accusation and amusement.

"Your son?" You repeated her words as your mind took a moment to put two and two together.

"Mrs. Park? What is going on? What did you do?" You stammered as your shock and confusion grew. You didn't know much about Jimin's mother, but from what you had heard during Jimin's phone conversations with Jiya, you sensed that Jin had been on his way to see Jimin's mother before this accident occurred. And that alone was a strong enough fact to consider this woman, not trustworthy, for despite everything Jin was someone very logical and would never go after someone without a good reason.

"Don't be delusional, dear. I am his mother. No one loves him more than I do. I am trying to save him, but you all keep interfering. You ignorant fools keep getting in the way of his salvation."Mrs Park narrowed her eyes as she regarded you

"Save him? How? By doing all this? By making him unconscious and going against his will? I don't know you, but Jimin is under my protection, whether you like it or not. You are not trustworthy right now," You retorted as your protective instincts kicked in and you positioned yourself before Jin's bed and Jimin's unconscious form on the floor. However, your defiance seemed to amuse Mrs Park, enough to put a smile on her lips.

"Under your protection? What makes you think you have any power to protect anyone, to begin with? You can't even protect your own sister," Mrs Park hissed, her words dripping with venom, that actually made you feel instantly uneasy as it was the second time this woman was mentioning BreeAhn so confidently.

"What do you mean?" Your heart raced as a sense of dread washed over you.

"You better step out of this case on your own. Erase yourself from this mess, or I will make sure your sister pays the price for your choices," Mrs. Park threatened with a chilling intensity that left you feeling vulnerable.

The mention of Bree's safety struck you deep in your core, for your sister was very dear to you. She was all you had left, despite the fact that you don't always get along. The thought and only that your sister might suffer because of your decisions was making you feel helpless.

"Jimin is my son, and I am the only one who can truly protect him and save him from this mess. Don't try to play the hero, honey, because heroes lose people dear to them. I don't think sticking by Jimin's side is more important than your sister's life, now is it?" Mrs. Park continued, driving her message home. She moved closer to you as you stood still, trying to appear unfazed, despite the fact that you were overwhelmed by everything that was happening, including the fact that this woman was bleeding but showed no signs of distress.
