Chapter 71

"Everything was great. I passed the happiest moment of my life with her. I was so into it that I got carried away and forgot that I was not just someone who was allowed to love so casually." His expression showed his sadness as he uttered that bitter reality that was an obvious scar for him and right there and then, for a brief moment, you could relate to him. To the fact of being deprived by things that would be considered normal by other people.

"The night of her death, we had a date. We were supposed to meet at her house in Busan. I arrived there around 9 and found her cooking dinner. He chatting normally and told me that she had been there since five then we just enjoyed each other's company as always. Everything was so natural and the dinner was great as always. I remember telling her that her smile was what made my days less tiring as we both were gathering the dishes to wash them and she smiled brighter for me."He slipped into a personal scene as the sweet moment couldn't help but appear on his mind and he got sunk into his memories, forgetting that he was around people that had their eyes on him.

"And I ..at that moment couldn't help but think that she was the most beautiful scene I had ever seen. She was always someone so different from me. Her spirit was full of light and positivity. Her generous heart and life philosophies, her artistic nature, and the way she loved people. Everything was just so different from me but it was also what attracted me the most to her. It was really a perfect night..till the doorbell rung." His expression changed as he spoke of the sound that had turned to be a significant change in their lovely night. A sound now related to the terror that he has to hear around all his life because it is everywhere.

"We were watching a movie and I remember the time precisely because we had just finished it and she looked at her phone, suggesting that we should go to sleep. It was 23:32 precisely and of course a doorbell ringing at such an hour was more than suspicious because we weren't expecting anyone." TaeYong continued,  his face growing paler as the minutes went by because he was reliving a traumatic moment of his life while speaking of it. He had gotten so deeply involved that he could even feel the same uneasy feeling he felt back then when he stood up and went to check who was it.

"I told her to wait there as I got up and went to the door, planning to just open it a bit while the safety chain was on and just see who was it that was ringing her doorbell at such a late hour...If I knew i might have not done so, really but yet again, there was no escape either way because I later got to know that the house was surrounded." He laughed for a moment, feeling stupid and hopeless as he did at that moment and you just looked at him, feeling the uneasy feeling growing on your stomach as his story wasn't going to anything pleasant.

"I was met with a gun on my forehead and the man ordered me to open the door fully. I initially just froze in place, but soon I started thinking that this may be some kidnapping case or anyone that was after me because of my position so I told them that I could just step out, hoping that they weren't aware of MinHee's existence and as such she was to not be put in danger. However they already knew and the man just kicked the door open, breaking the small chain." You took hold of your knees as he spoke, finding the situation he was talking of anxious and scary, even though you now knew the outcome of it.

"They broke in and I was pinned on the floor in no time. Her screaming voice reached my ears as she tried to run towards me but a guy pointed a gun at her, bringing her steps to a halt, while I just yelled out of fear, to leave her alone...She was trembling as she looked at me and the guns that were now above my head while several masked men had invaded the once peaceful space we shared...I will never forget the fear in her eyes and the fear in my heart of losing her." He smiled in an attempt to cover up his breaking emotions and LeeGuk lowered his gaze, feeling extremely empathetic for his friend at that instant while Namjoon just kept staring, analyzing his behavior and body language that till this moment, was guiding him to the conclusion that TaeYong was really telling the truth as no acting could reach this level of emotional conflict of his persona and his true feelings, that were meant to reflexively battle when someone was to be facing something that they have complex feelings overdoing, and him speaking about it was obviously a decision that he took hardly and was costing on his psychological state greatly.
