The prison bus that was transferring her from the detention center in Seoul, got flagged by a few unidentified vehicles just outside of Seoul.

Taehyung watched the news report with sad eyes. This has been the news of the day and every broadcasting station has been running a similar story for hours now. Taehyung was with mixed feelings. The public may never know the true nature of Sana's crimes but Taehyung, and people around him knew. While Taehyung was able to escape the death sentence she ordered for him, two other people lost their lives. Innocent people, who were just doing their job of protecting him.

But even so, he couldn't help but feel a little sad for the way her life ended. She had a bright present and a future, and was loved by millions. And anyways, who's to say what people might do when they get heartbroken. Everyone reacts differently to different circumstances, Taehyung won't be as presumptuous to say he understands.

For a long while, he had this animosity in his heart for her. And while he knows that it's completely justified, he doesn't want to have it anymore. What's the point of thinking bad of a person who was no longer alive?

Jungkook, of course, was a little more at ease with the situation. He's not a one to wish death upon anyone, but he couldn't help but think it was deserved. He wouldn't exactly call himself 'an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth' guy but if the universe is handing out appropriate punishments, who is he to question that.

The main thing right now is that she is no longer in their lives. And that's more than enough for both of them.

Taehyung was discharged from the hospital about a week after Sana's incident. He still had physiotherapy every other day and a therapist, vetted by Seokjin, is coming to his house for it. He also had a nurse and a cook, helping him with his daily living. Jungkook wanted to take care of Taehyung himself, but he had prior scheduled arrangements which could not be postponed. They also decided that it would be better for Taehyung to have company around the clock, to avoid a similar boredom he suffered with his shoulder injury.
