In which Park Jimin, a cat hybrid, meets the top, most notorius gang member Min Yoongi.
But is his initial kindness ill-intentioned or is Jimin just paranoid.
I quickly followed Namjoon as best as I could. He had longs, I didn’t. He led me into the most hospital-like bathroom I’ve ever seen in my life. The cold, white walls reflecting the lack of emotion or attempt to make the house seem welcoming. That made sense, I guess. Whatever this guy was into, he certainly wasn’t doing it to make friends. I must’ve been zoned out again as Namjoon had to wave his hand in front of my face to get my attention.
He turned around and caught his foot on the bathmat, tripping, throwing the towels into the air and falling into the tub. For the first time in a while, I smiled, laughed even. The poor man seem extremely embarrassed but I helped him up and felt my guard loosen up a little.
“Ah, pardon me. I’m not the most coordinated..” he explained as he began picking up the towels.
“I-It’s fine” I reply, internally cursing myself for stuttering and helping him with the towels.
“Oh! Thank you so much. I appreciate it.” He smiled at me, his dimples showing. That perplexed me but it was the first sign of warmth I’ve seen in this house. It was… lovely, actually. “So if you would just bathe here, there are the clothes on the counter. Please take your time, come down to the kitchen when you are finished.” With that, he bowed and left the bathroom, locking it before he left. How kind.
I turned around to face the bathing station. It was much different than what we had at the lab. The lab had cold, steel tables with hoses for the cruel “groomers” to use. If we were lucky we’d get a bucket of cold water and left to our own devices for 10-15 minutes until it was time for the next group to go in and bathe with the same water we had just used…
I shook my head to rid myself of the memories and set out to figure out how this bathing station worked. I turned one of the knobs and squealed in surprise as I saw steaming water coming out of it. Astonished, I touched it and was so mind-blown that the heat didn’t even seem to phase me or hurt me. ‘Their bathing station must be broken…” I thought out loud as my brows knitted together with concern. I thanked my lucky stars I heard a knock at the door, however.
“Uh, boy?” said what seemed like the pale man from earlier.
“Y-yes sir?” I asked, half-fearfully.
“You can call me Yoongi. Is everything alright? I heard a… squeal?”
“Oh! Yoongi! I think your bathing station is broken! I swear I didn’t do anything to it!” I called back, still staring at the hot water streaming from the faucet.
“Broken?” He asked, concerned.
“Yes, Yoongi. Hot water is coming out of it.” I said.
“I.. I would hope so? Hot water is supposed to come out if you’d like it to be that way..” he said, his tone a bit softer than before.
Tilting my head to one side, I replied a quiet answer. “Would it be okay if I used some?”
“Of course.”
“Thank you so much.”
I heard the shuffling of his feet grow fainter and fainter. That’s when I finally decided to undress. The uncomfortable soaking clothes being taken off was like heaven had shined down on me. My tail wiggled and stretched with a mind of its own, enjoying the freedom. I stepped into the bath and all but moaned at the amazing feeling. Hot water? Who would have known this was a thing? I had never experienced it but God knows how much I loved it. Maybe I’d actually consider liking bath time if it was like this. I stood there for a while under the hot water before taking in what was happening. And I cried.
I cried because I had finally escaped that hell hole. I cried because it would probably be a dream and I’d wake up tomorrow back where I was. I cried because of everything that happened. I cried because I was stuck inside this freak body. I cried because everybody has been nothing but nice to me since I arrived at this place. I cried because I knew with everything good that happened to me, something worse would come along and ruin it. I cried because I was heartbroken. I cried.
