The Assignment ✔️

Here We Go Again

He sat there across from  me his elbows on his knees and his face on the palms of his hands. When he walked into my office the first thing he did was walk directly to the chairs and he has been sitting like this for about 25 minutes. His breathing was even but other than that he didn't move a single muscle. I sat across from him crossing my legs waiting. Waiting for him to say something...to move...anything. But he didn't. He just sat there breathing in and out...in and out. I cleared my throat quietly hoping it would make him jump even a little but it was as if he was stone.

"Namjoon." I said softly.

Finally I saw his shoulders rise and fall as he inhaled and exhaled deeply. His hands fell and his head lifted slightly as he looked at me.

"I don't know what to say."

"Well...I have a lot to ask...so why don't we start there?"

He nodded.

"What do you remember about last night."

He visibly swallowed. "Everything." He croaked out.

"And how do you feel about the actions of your alter."

"Ashamed."

"Why? You didn't do anything...did you?"

"No...it wasn't me...I would never hurt someone...especially someone who is trying to help me." He dropped his head again, it hanging above his parted knees. "I'm so sorry." He croaked again this time tears falling from his eyes.

"Namjoon I'm not upset with you..." I stopped in my tracks as I watched him sit up straight, he stretch his arms out and crack his neck to the left, then to the right. His eyes opened and he slowly turned his head towards me.

"Namjoon isn't here right now."

"Why not?"

"Because he doesn't like talking about things."

"Bring him back."

"No."

"Bring...him...back..."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

Just then we heard a knock on the door. "Come in."

Jin walks in and locks the door behind him walking towards Namjoon and I. As he gets closer I see Namjoon's breathing get heavier and faster, his eyes never leave Jin, and I can see some sweat bead on his neck. Jin locks eyes with him and he walks over to the 3rd chair and takes a seat. They continued to stare at each other until Jin tore his gaze away from him and looked over at me.

"What do I have to do?"

I looked over at Namjoon who did not look away from Jin once. "Bring Namjoon back." I said darkly. That's when Namjoon's eyes flickered towards me. Before he could speak Jin looked back to Namjoon.

"Bring Namjoon back." He said with a voice I never heard before.

Namjoon looked back at Jin. "Why?"

"Because I need to talk to him."

"Well he doesn't want to talk to you."

"I don't give a rats ass what he wants...Bring him back."

I had never heard Jin speak so sternly towards anyone before...and Namjoon looked...scared?

"What do you want to talk about?" he asked.

"None of your business."

He tilted his head a bit that smirk that doesn't fit him forming back on his lips. "Is it something to do with being a fag?"
