Your voice made the girl stop and turn around shooting a questioning look towards you.

"You're the girl I met at the library," You spoke meeting her eyes.

Her eyes wavered as she tried to find a response but you continued to speak.

"What are you doing here?"

"Uhm....I--" She chuckled nervously.

"Y/n-ah? Y/n-ah!" Jin's voice blared through your earpiece.

"What!" You whispered trying not to be obvious.

"You haven't been responding to us," Jin says.

"Shh...guys I'm talking to a girl from my college," You spoke covering your mouth but the girl noted it.

"Who are you talking to?" She questioned still standing where she halted.

"Nevermind... So Zuyi, what are you doing here?"

"First of all, my name isn't Zuyi. Second of all, I must ask you the same question," She crossed her arms cocking her brow.

You didn't care to answer. Instead you replied with one.

"How did you come here?"

"Does that--"

Another loud thunder ruptured through the night sky. In no time, you felt the bridge of your nose get wet. Soon the rain began casting down making you both look around for somewhere to cover yourselves with.

"Where do you live?" She asked you covering her head with her palms.

"In the 18th avenue," You shouted in the pouring rain.

"That's quite far from here. My place is close by, wanna tag along?" She offered.

Franctically looking around for shelter, you found none. Your top was already half soaked plus she didn't seem bad. You didn't wanna catch a cold on top of all that you were going through.

"Okay," You nodded making her smile.

With that, you followed the girl without a second thought.

The rain faltered the signal but you were too busy trying to not get yourself soaked that you forgot the earpiece was no longer connected to Jin's mobile.

"The hell!" Jin panicked when he tried calling you multiple times but the phone failed to connect.

"What do we do now?" Taehyung's voice was tinted with panic as he glanced up at the pouring sky.

"Let's rush to the 57th avenue. Hope she couldn't have gone too far from there," Jin said sprinting off to that street with Tae following him.

But to their mistfortune, the girl they had come for was no where to be seen around.

I watched the keys jingle as she unlocked her door. Her place wasn't too big like the other houses I had seen here.

It looked like a small snug apartment which seemed enough for one person to live in.

Unfortunately our hair and clothes were soaking wet by the time we reached her house. She strolled into her room after grabbing a towel from a stand.

"I'm gonna take a shower. Here you can change into these for now," She said tossing me a loose top and pants from her wardrobe.

"No it's really fine," I refused the offer.

"You'll catch a cold if you stay like that," She said eyeing my top which was see through now.

She seemed bit too kind but I didn't judge her further.

"You can change in my room," She said before walking into her bathroom not forgetting to lock it.

Sighing I removed my wet clothes placing it in a corner changing into her dry ones. She hadn't finished showering yet so I took the time to look at the photos on her room wall.

First there was one with her parents when she was a kid, then with her highschool friends, one from her birthday party with another girl by her side

But wait.

Why does her friend look familiar?

I shook away the thought moving my eyes to the next picture which seemed to be taken at a wedding.

Looks like her best friend's wedding. My eyes slowly move from Tzuyu to the bride and then to the bride groom.

What!?

Taehyung?

Now I knew why her friend looked familiar! I had seen her picture in Taehyung's phone.

Remembering Taehyung, I almost forgot the reason I ended up here. That was when I realized that my earpiece was not working.

I quickly pulled out the mobile from my pocket calling Jin.

"The number you are trying to reach is not reachable at the moment"

What the hell? How do I go back home!?

I stressfully stare at the picture in front of me thinking of a way to contact them.

"That was taken at my friend's wedding," Tzuyu's voice made me turn around.

"Huh?"

"You were staring at that picture for too long," She laughed.

"Hehe sorry," I smiled lightly before she started narrating the tragic story of her friend's wedding.

"Jihyo, do you take Kim Taehyung as your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do."

"Taehyung, do you take Park Jihyo as your lawfully wedded wife?"

"Yes I do."

With that, they exchanged rings and Taehyung's eyes filled with happy tears with the thought of living with Jihyo.

"Aww look, your husband is about to cry," Tzuyu, Jihyo's best friend mumbled in her ear.

It was the most perfect day in their life.

Or that's what they thought so.

But Taehyung's face shrinked when one of his groomsmaid came and whispered something in his ear.

"Mr.Kim, it seems that the Hansol troup has reunited with Hansol's son as their new head. I think they will most probably come for us."

Tae spoke back saying that he cannot leave in the middle of the wedding but the other man urged him.

At that moment, a group of masked guys broke in and violently threatened the whole crowd there.

Everyone began running in every possible direction. Fear and confusion struck Jihyo's face.

"Who are they?" Jihyo asked him.

"Jihyo run out of here! That's the Hansol troup whose head I killed in the recent fight! His son Vernon has come to take revenge!"

A lot of gunshots and slashes were heard inside the Church. It was a massive chaos.

Taehyung grabbed a sword and began to fight back.

The battle went on for about 20 minutes.

The place was a total mess after Taehyung and his people killed most of their enemies.

Most of the people who had come to attend the wedding lay there with their necks slit or heads bleeding.

Barely a few of them managed to escape out of this.

Vernon had escaped immediately after things started coming down. The coward ran away when he knew he was going to be defeated.

But Taehyung didn't give a damn about him. His eyes frantically searched for Jihyo. He ran around opening rooms searching for her.

The next thing that came to his mind was what if Vernon had taken Jihyo with him?

Soon he breathed out in relief to find Jihyo opening the door of a room he was about to open. She immediately hugged him and breathed out saying, "Thank God you're safe!"

When they parted from each other, Jihyo looked into his eyes mouthing an 'I love you'.

That's when he took notice of her wedding dress. The upper half was totally cover in blood, her blood.

One of the enemies had broken into Jihyo's room and stabbed her chest leaving her bleed all alone.

Right after she said that, her lifeless body collapsed into Tae's arms. Watching his now married wife die in front of his eyes, he could've never felt anything painful than that.

Soon after, Tzuyu came running from the other side of the building screaming and crying seeing her dead friend.

But all her cries only sounded like a blur to him because he felt paralysed.

"I love you more," He kissed her forehead for one last time.
