mention of blood and murder)

-•-

the events ran through my mind.

i was scared beyond my wits.

never in my life i felt so frightened.

taehyung's wound showed, just on the corner of his mouth, and he was advised not to speak much.

by jeongguk of course.

"hyung are you feeling better?"

"i heard what happened yesterday." yeoubi's forehead was creased.

"the janitor has gone to check the laboratory."

"i am still scared to be honest." i mumbled

"scared?" jeongguk looked at me confused as he wiped his glasses with his shirt and placed them back on his nose. "of what?"

"whatever happened yesterday jeon."

"what's there to be scared of bae? it was the weather." he shrugged.

was it?

i was about to tell them, how cold it felt, shivers still running down my spine when i think of yesterday.

when i was collided with a shoulder.

really hard.

"ow!" i rubbed the sore spot
