"She's gonna find out. She's gonna know, sooner or later. And when she does, she's gonna be broken. Broken in a way where nobody can fix her."

His voice is strained, and I can tell he's crying. She's gonna find out.

Find out. Find out what? Why do Yoongi and Jimin sound so concerned on the other end? What do they know that I don't know? Why is Jungkook crying?

I keep the water running, but press my ear against the door.

"I just don't know what to do. I don't want to hurt her." Hurt me?

"Do you...do you want us to break the news then?" I hear Jimin say.

"No. I don't want to tell her. I can't bring myself to."

"Are you sure? What if it's doing more harm than good?" Yoongi says.

"I think...I don't know. I have to sleep on it. For now, I'm not telling her. I don't feel like it's the best time to."

I sigh in disbelief.

I'm just so tired of this. My brain, my body, my heart—everything hurts. I want answers.

And I'm gonna do whatever it takes to get them.

phew, whata short chapter. it's literally

only 200 words, sorry! they'll get longer though!
