BTS HYYH Notes (Book 1, 2, BUS Game) // COMPLETE [Part 2]

2022, May 21 - Taehyung (Seokjin Hyung's Reality & Dream)

[Place: Close-down swimming pool]

I got to the closed-down swimming pool earlier than the promised time. I lay down on the mattress in the middle of the pool. Dust rose up, but I didn't care. I lay there facing the sun beating down on me. It felt like I was floating on the empty ocean.

I blocked the sun light with my hand. I slowly turned my hand around. It felt as if the blood was still seeping from the yesterday's injury.

It'd been only a day.

I had opened the door and seen something expected but horrific. For a moment, I had gone blank. When I came to, my palm was bleeding. My noona was crying in one corner, and Hoseok hyung was telling me to snap out of it and shaking me like crazy.

With Seokjin hyung watching me as I killed my abeoji --- that was how the nightmare always ended.

The nightmare and reality became all jumbled up and avoided colliding with each other by a hair's breadth. When I asked Hoseok hyung how he knew, he said, "Seokjin hyung had called me. Hyung told me to go and see you. To ask you if you would like to go to see the sea."

I still had in me that unbearable rage and sorrow as I had lunged at my abeoji. I didn't know what to do about this raging heart.

When I slowly came to, I remembered scene after scene: Seokjin hyung deep in thought in front of the map of Songju and showing up at Yoongi hyung's accident, the phone call Seokjin hyung made --- If Kim Taehyung gets into trouble again, please contact Jung Hoseok---.

Were they just all coincidence? In the dream, hyung simply watched everything, detached. But in reality, he always interfered when we were in trouble. How could I discern what was real and what was a dream?

I couldn't forget hyung's face that I had seen in the dream. Was he helping us or was he pushing us into a certain future?
