He leaned on the table with his elbows and hid his face behind the palm of his hand.

"What happened, Jinnie-ah ?"

He jumped up startled at the sudden sound and turned to look around only to sigh in relief when he saw his father.

"Appa."He said exaggeratedly.

"Don't scare me like that."

Mr. Kim just chuckled and walked in his room with a glass of warm milk.

"I am sorry."

"I didn't mean it."

"Here."

He put the glass on his table and turned to place a hand in his hair.

"Drink it and go to sleep."

Jin shook his head.

"No."

"I have a lot to do."

"I can't just stop right now."

Mr. Kim gave him a small smile.

"You have been stressed all day long, son."

"I know that I may not understand all your work and how you do this."

"But I know that if you are tired and exhausted, you won't be able to do anything."

"Just for your old man, go and get rest, yeah ?"

And Jin sighed.

"Okay."

"I'll get some sleep."

The elder smiled satisfied with his answer.

"Good night."

"I'll leave you to rest."

With that he walked away.

Jin leaned back on his chair and closed his eyes.

But soon his phone buzzed with a notification.

And he unlocked the device only to be greeted by message from an unknown number.

He just shook his head and put it back on the table as he moved to his bed to get some sleep.

'I am sorry.'

Taehyung looked at Jungkook and tried to hold back a sigh.

He was doing the other's tie and the elder acted as non-chalant as ever.

"Are you even going to look at me ?"He said after a long silence.

The elder did meet his eyes but refused to say anything.

"You have been avoiding me for a while now."
