chapter 4

Taehyung's POV

"turn around, "

my breath hitched when i heard that whisper. it was so low, and every syllable made me shiver.

"turn around, "

i held my breath as i continued staring at the ceiling. my hands started shaking as i can feel some movement near me. i gasped as i saw a hand slowly approaching mine, coming from under my bed.

"h-hyungs, " i muttered shaking as the hand gripped my hand tightly. i whimpered in pain as the grip is too strong.

"hyungs! jeongguk! " i said loudly, hoping that they will somewhat wake up from their slumber. i saw jeongguk's fingers twitching. my eyes glistened with hope at that movement.

"jeongguk! " i called as loud as i can. jeongguk suddenly woke up, standing from the shock before falling on his butt. he winced in pain as he rubbed his eyes.

"yes, tae? "jeongguk said as he slowly approached me but stopped halfway. he squinted his eyes, eyeing something. i tilted my head, confused.

"hyung," jeongguk trailed off.

"whose hand is that? "

is what i last heard before an ear piercing scream broke out under my bed. i closed my eyes, ears ringing from the sudden yell.

i opened my eyes yet it's just pitch black. no beeping of the monitor, no noise because of the aircon.

" ggukie? hyungs? where are you? "i called out for them helplessly. i hugged myself, the darkness is creeping me out.

"if you stare at the abyss, the abyss will stare back, " a voice said from behind me. she hugged me tightly, not letting me go.

"turn around, " i shook my head, too afraid to look. the grip became tighter and tighter until i couldn't breath anymore.

"turn around, " she commanded me, voice stern.

"no! " i yelled as my vision got blurry from the tears and not having enough oxygen. i started hyperventilating yet she still haven't let go.

"turn around, "

"turn around, "

"i said, turn around! "

-

i opened my eyes, sitting up straight while panting. i let out a relieved sigh when i heard the heart monitor. i looked around the room, the members are still sleeping soundly.

i remained sitting, too afraid to do anything. she might come back soon. i heard a groan and looked to my right. i saw the hyungs slowly waking up.

they all stretched before greeting each other good morning.

"how are you, tae? feeling better now? " jin hyung asked me while patting my head. i breathed deeply before answering with a small smile.

"i feel a little bit better. thank you for staying, hyung, "

"i'm glad and all but, "

"who's that woman beside you? "
