《The Retribution Contract》38.
Advertisement
Nothing is limitless in the mortal world. There is a limit to what a person can endure and Taehyung had reached that limit. He couldn't hope more. He couldn't endure more. Not when his reason to live had willingly left him. There was no one to embrace his tired body. There was no one around to wipe his tears. He was all alone. Alone with his tears and loneliness.
After Jungkook's departure he had gone everywhere to search for him. He visited AD Corp. and the headquarters of Asmodeus. He tried calling him a million times but there was no reply from the other end. Han-na, Pildo, Jimin and the others were gone too. It was as if none of them existed. There was absolutely no sign of them. He tried his very best to look for them but had to return home dejected.
The room was completely dark. The only source of light was the moon but that too was slowly getting covered by the clouds. Just like his life. The light in his life had been shadowed by the dark clouds of despair. He wanted to ask so many questions but there was no one to answer them. Not even Ji-ung, who had gone out of Seoul to arrange a secret meeting with the investors and board of directors. He felt as if everyone had abandoned him.
Sniffling he dialed the phone number he had been calling on for the past few hours. Just like before it rang and then went to voice mail. "K.. Kook." He stuttered. "Why are you not talking to me? Why did you send me those papers? Atleast give me a reason. I f..feel so empty. You took a decision for yourself but what about me. I don't even know my fault. I'm alone and scared. It's scary to be in the dark. It's tiring. I'm tired Jungkook. I'm so tired of this l...life. Everytime I start doing something for myself I fail miserably. Do I not deserve any happi.....happiness Kook? Am I that bad?"

He laid down on Jungkook's side of the bed and continued "It's difficult to hope when all you can see is darkness. It's difficult to try when there is no one to cheer you up. I.....I can't do this anymore Kook. Please come back to me. Please take me in your arms and protect me from this world Kook. Ple......Please." The broken boy kept on repeating that word. His eyes closed off with exhaustion and he slowly drifted into a painful world of nightmares. Even in his sleep his eyes didn't stop shedding tears. Tears of losing his lover. Tears of losing his hope.
Jungkook held Haneul closer to his chest. The little baby was the only thing keeping him sane at the moment. He felt broken. So broken that he couldn't even cry anymore. His tears had dried up from the darkness inside him. He couldn't face Taehyung for now so he decided to relocate himself.
At present he was at his farmhouse in Busan. A place Taehyung was unaware of and Jungkook was glad about that. He just needed some time to gather himself again. "Jungkook we are there for you." His mother caressed his hair and looked at him with sad eyes. He glanced at her and just nodded. He was out of words. The boy was numb and blank.
"He and his father won't get away with that Kook. Take your time to heal and then show them that they messed with the wrong person." Pildo exclaimed. He was beyond angry on the news of Taehyung's betrayal. He would have confronted Taehyung but Jungkook had convinced him against it. The old man had reluctantly agreed because his son mattered to him more than anything else.
All of them were shaken up with the information. While Han-na and Pildo were showing their sadness by shouting and talking, the others had gone extremely quiet. Jimin too had not spoken a word. They all had given Taehyung another chance. They all had tried to look past his deeds but now they regretted it. "We shouldn't have been kind to him. He doesn't deserve our love." Jin muttered under his breath.

Jungkook though heard his every word and each of them felt like a stab to his heart. Hyung is right. He doesn't deserve my love. He assured himself. It was the only way he could convince his heart to not hurt for Taehyung. The ravenette didn't want to think about the situation anymore so he looked at Haneul instead. The baby was sleeping peacefully with no care of the world. Jungkook wished to be like that too.
"Sir there is an injured man outside. He wants to meet you." A guard came inside to inform him. The ravenette's train of thoughts broke from the sudden information. "Let him come inside." He instructed. The guard bowed before getting into action. Soon he entered again with the man in tow. Jungkook stood up surprised as his eyes landed on the new presense.
"Park Seojun?" The ravenette exclaimed out in disbelief. Seojun staggered towards him with his daughter in his arms. "Help me Jungkook. Please protect my daughter. Please." He pleaded getting on his knees. His state was sad. He was injured with bloody wounds. It was clear that he had fought his way to Jungkook.
"Did your master abandon you? And why do you think I will help you? Go to your Master Taehyung since he trusts you a lot. He'll definitely help you?" Jungkook handed Haneul to his mother and took a few strides towards the kneeling man.
"I don't know why your master is ready to kill you so suddenly but I don't care. You can go wherever you want to. Don't show your face to me again. Remember who I am. You get that." He took out a gun from his belt case and pointed it at Seojun. "I might have fallen victim to the the foolish feeling of love but I am still the mafia leader of Asmodeus. Do not try to play with me Seojun and get the f*ck out before I empty out these bullets in your head."
Saying this he turned around and started walking away from there. He had just taken a few steps when he haulted. The words Seojun spoke next froze him in place.
"Taehyung never betrayed you. Not today. Not even two years ago."
