"You are my sin that lost me my wings"

Urgh, this shit again.

Everything I ask him, is replied with wings. That was the only answer he had.

"Taehyung told me that. What I need to know is why I'm your sin that lost you your wings?" I asked, hoping for a more sequenced answer. Jimin glanced to my side, smirking at my figure. This wasn't the first time he tried to mock me, a mortal human.

He lifted his finger to his chin, scratching them with a confused expression "Who knows? Does Taehyung know" he replied, laughing in a silly way to mock me yet again.

"I'm serious"

"And I'm a Demon, nice to meet you" he said, gesturing his hands towards me even though there were metal bars separating us. It was clear he was just having fun.

But more than just joking around, I felt Jimin was just trying to emphasize back on the fact that he was an eternal power that has no needs to answer a being like me. Quite a trick he used.

"If seeing me won't help you gain back your wings, then how do you think I can be of any help?" I asked, not bothering to play back on his games.

"I'm not quite sure of that yet. But you can't leave until I do"

"What if I do?"

"I'll find you"

"How? You don't have your wings to do so"

"I don't need my wings to find an earthling. Somewhere in the dark I will shade you and find you in a blink of an eye" he said, creasing the metal bars that were distant from my side. He dragged his fingers from one bar to another, coming closer to my side until he held my fingers that grabbed the bar closest to us.

"And I will make sure to cease your existence" he continued while I quickly snatched my hands from his grip and all Jimin did was smile like the devil he is.

"You can't do that? You s-"Jimin's neighboring psycho was about to yell a question but that didn't last before he waved his hands over at Hoseok, and he couldn't continue. Hoseok's mouth was sealed with an invisible tape? He looked confused, trying to talk ahead but was only able to mumble.

"It's your fault too, Human. If you would have done that act instead of me then we both wouldn't be in here-" Jimin spoke with anger and frustration dominating his features. He tried hard to breathe like anybody would, pursing his lips to stop any more words from escaping his mouth.

Any more words that would unravel my need for him.

His eyes suddenly met mine before continuing.

"Nor would you ever be here either"

His words only confused me. It wasn't fare that I'm the only one that's unaware about anything that is going on in his mind. Even Hoseok knows something. Why can't I know?

"What did you do to him!? Let him speak" I demanded, glaring at the Demon with every strength I had as a human. Jimin just shrugged before sitting down with crossed legs and his hand that rested his chin. He simply looked cunning and carefree of my words.

I'm the doctor? Why do I feel like the slave then?

"You have to stop what you're doing to him. He's struggling" when I looked at Hoseok, he was still trying to figure out what made him stop talking. Hoseok tried to open his mouth using his hands and when he realized that it wasn't going to work; he sat on the floor and started whining like a six year old?

And not to mention the heavy tantrum he was throwing by spinning himself on the floor? I find him somewhat cute?

Jimin, sighed seeing me worried. He quickly took his eyes of me and concentrated them on Hoseok. Out of the blue, Hoseok stopped moving completely. He turned himself to face Jimin. And by the looks of it, it looked like they were talking or something? But both of their mouths weren't moving?

After a few seconds Hoseok started shaking his head up and down, in approval? And that was when it struck me.

Jimin was talking into his head, like he did to me.

After they looked like they were done conversing among themselves, the Demon stood up and snapped his fingers. With the snap I noticed Hoseok wide open his mouth. He looked relived and started to breathe in, heavily.

"Dr. Minrae"

I had my eyes enlarged with the familiarity in his voice. Even though we haven't yet faced each other, I knew I wasn't ready to meet him yet. Anxiety was covering me up and building my fear more as I turned to face him.

"Dr. Joon"

It was the CEO.

It wasn't just him. Behind Dr. Joon was another man. A man that wants me kicked out as soon as possible. He peeked through Dr. Joon's shoulder and mouthed something. 'Look who's in trouble' after which he started giggling.

Jeon Freaking Kook.

I was more than sure Jungkook bought Dr. Joon here. It was quite obvious when he giggled like a kid that had his revenge at last. What a baby.

"Dr. Joon, I can explain" I was about to confess everything, except the part of him being a Demon. Wait? Then what's there to confess? Urgh, I'm such a mess right now.

"You still have that useless human" he asked Dr. Joon, looking at the boy behind his back. Jungkook was a little taken back. He tilted his head to the side, not approving his words in a funny way.

"He's my son" he replied, boldly. No fear written on his face? But Jimin, he looked rather more careful with his word.

"Pft, why are you even here. I thought I scared you the last time you visited me" Jimin asked Jungkook who looked a little frightened at the sight of a psycho.

"I'm sorry, I don't speak psycho" he replied, walking to stand next to me. A gang leader confidence spread across his body. But it was obviously to show off.

"Do I look like I speak human, weakling"

That would have been hella savage if they knew his identity. But if I keep them in here, I fear Jimin would just have a slip of tongue and lose his little secret.

Excuse me, did I just say little secret. My bad.

"Umm, let's talk upstairs" I suggested, pushing Jungkook to the stairs and gesturing Dr. Joon to join respectively. Even though the boy kept trying to get loose from my grip, I just strongly pushed him out while Dr. Joon followed.

"I'll come up in a second"

"No you can't, you are so fired—"

"No one gets to fire my staff except me Jeon Jungkook. SO STAY AT YOUR LEVEL" Dr. Joon seemed furious at his son's behavior. Once again slashed by his dad. Why do I feel so good?

"Sorry, dad"

That face of his, I feel like clicking a pick.

"Meet me when you are done, Dr. Minrae" he said, going upstairs. It's quite weird how he acts as a CEO. If it was someone else they would have wanted answers quickly. I wonder what Jungkook said to him that he had to rush all the way here to see me.

And that too keep his pace. Why was he so calm?

There was one thing that I was even more curious of. Jung Hoseok.

Feeling a little curious and having a bit more hope than before, I walked to the side of Hoseok's cell. He was sitting in the same position as he was before.

When he saw me sitting next to his side of the cell, he excitedly held on to the bars, almost wanting to crease my hair. He realized my presence was closer than ever before, because of that probably his eyes were almost filling up again?

"Rara" he called.

"But I'm not Rara?" I asked, catching his hands that hesitated. I slowly moved it to my hair, allowing him to pat me.

Hoseok smiled, melting my heart.

More than him, I was the one wanting the sudden consolation. I held on to his hands like I wanted him to hold on to mine? I didn't know why but I felt warm and protected next to him.

"You are. You just can't remember. Its okay" he said, not risking to take away his hands from my head.

"Why? How do you know him? Rather how am I related to him"

"Rara, it's because he-" he stopped? "I can't tell you, I'm sorry. It's the only way I can protect you"

"Why would you protect me? Are you an angel too?"

"No, but it was because I couldn't protect you back then that we both have ended up in this situation. If it wasn't for my coward heart, we wouldn't have even met him" For once Hoseok's words seemed so normal. He doesn't seem all psycho anymore. He seems rather soft and welcoming.

"We shouldn't have played hide and seek back then. I should never have left you out of my sight" he continued.

"What do you mean? I don't recall playing hide and seek. And why would I have played it with you?"

Hoseok sighed, taking his hands off my head. Somehow looking depressed.

"You still can't recall me?" He asked with a mountain of worry building over him.

Having no clue, I shook my head, answering him. But now that I think of it, why did I ask him that? Why did I care? Why was I curious and most of all why am I emotional over a stranger. All this was answered. But nothing still runs clear.

"I'm your brother, Rara"
