32- The Undiscovered Power I

Taehyung

My eyelids snap open when I'm being terrified by the prophetic dream which I've used to dream of. Heaving in cold breathes with my widely opened mouth, I manage to look around the place. Occasionally, I'll shake my head frantically when Bogum's husky, low threats ring in my head like amplifiers.

"I will make you regret, Kim Taehyung." That is literally not him. The usual Park Bogum won't talk to me like this. He uses to be a nice person when we first meet.

By the way, what is this place? I don't remember entering this wait, that picture looks familiar. I try to move my limbs and luckily, they are free as not expected. If my memory isn't faltered, I remember being shot and taken... here? By Hoseok-hyung.

Unconditionally, I stroke on the wound which is supposed to ache on the right side of my chest. Yet, it doesn't. In fact, I think Hoseok-hyung has avoided my heart purposely when he shoots me. Before I manage to process further, the door in front squeaks and it's opened. Upon this, I've unconsciously sit up and backed away although it's not going to keep me safe.

My back leans against the headboard when my figure shakes in fear. Everything turns silent and the only thing I can hear is my heartbeat which continuously stamps on my chest in the most violent way. As the door is completely opened, there stands an unfamiliar person at the entrance.

She is about the height of my legs. Yes, it's a she. Besides that, there are small but feathery wings plastered on her back, neither she is like an angel nor a fairy. "Nae nugu ya(Who are you)?" I blurt out as the girl eyes me coldly with her icy blue orbs.

"I'm Gibby, Mr Jung's stand-in when he's not free, like right now." The girl who claims herself as Gibby admits. To be honest, I nearly laugh as I've thought 'stand-in' as 'one-night stand' before she mentions the phrase 'right now'. "I'm here to take you to Ms Heidi." My attitude meets a sharp turn after hearing that girl's name.

"Where's Mr Jung by the way?" Scratching the back of my head while hopping down from the bed, I ask lazily. "Why isn't he here?" Instead of answering, Gibby gulps as if she has been slapped with a brick.

"He's ermm.." Now she's hesitating. "He's having a meeting, since he's the most senior cupid in here." Gibby answers as her face blushes slightly. Is she so fond of Hoseok-hyung all along?

Although I know she's lying, I prefer to keep quiet next as I'm so eager to see Heidi-goma now. "Take me to her now, and also my siblings as well. I want to umm..." I look into somewhere on my upper left side as I'm lacking of vocabulary here. "I want to m-make sure that they're okay." Gibby nods in acknowledgement as her lips form a circle.

"Sure, come on. I'll bring you to their respective chambers." She gestures while explaining her next move to me.
