Kapitel 4: Episode 2: Not Today
~~~~~~Start of Lisa's PoV~~~~~~
I looked away from his face and at the dark winding road when I saw it. Sweat forming on my face, I drowned in those memories I regretted making.
A deep chant voiced inside me head in the background..."Throne Queens! Throne Queens! Throne Queens!" The voice of the whole school as we four had stepped on to stage to give our final performance for the graduation ceremony.
They weren't screaming our names because they worshiped or even loved us, they did it because they were scared, scared if we would rip them to their white bones if they didn't do otherwise.
The only thing I clearly remember was that we sang our hearts out that day...then, was it Miley? Or was it me who had called out Yoon-gi to come on stage?
He came on stage soon I guess and the crowd went quiet or did they snicker? I don't know. Yoon-gi left the stage soon after pictures were taken of his face.
I don't remember why we did that...anyway everything was past me. Even though I recognized Tae-hyung from then, he didn't know who I am. I would get out of the car and...never see him again.
I hadn't thought about them in so long...but now that I did, I remember their names one by one...
Kim...Nam-joon.
Park Jimin.
Kim Tae-hyung. I took in a steady breath, trying to keep myself calm.
Kim...what was the other one? Kim...Seok-jin. I bit my lip.
and Min Yoon-gi
Jung Ho-seok.....no. way.
Jeon...
Jung-kook.
These seven names...of those high school boys...the victims of Throne Queens were the very same names of the seven boys in the world's most trending band...
RM
Jimin
V
Jin
Suga
J-Hope
Jung-kook
I coughed and ripped open my bag in haste...my bottle...my water bottle...I tipped my neck and gulped half its contents. Tae-hyung...no, V looked at me while driving,
"Hey, you okay?"
I didn't hear him. My ears were ringing with all the words we had called them. All the times we had crashed them down to the ground, humiliated them. That night when we had locked them up in the sewers and sneaked out of there until some janitor had to open it the next morning to reveal seven suffocated teenagers...
I had done all that.
And now,
And now they were billionaires....I choked on the water and drank some more to relieve the hand grabbing at my throat, tearing me apart.
And look at me...and Miley. The "mighty" Throne Queens...working day and night to just earn a few bucks every hour and homeless and unemployed and just....I snuffed back my sobs.
~~~~~~End of Lisa's PoV~~~~~~
V didn't know what to do. Oh shit, there's a crying girl in my car, he thought to himself, what do I do? What should I say? Should I just let her be? Why is she crying? She was completely fine two seconds ago...literally, two seconds ago.
He tried to reach for her, but then retreated his hand. Finally he said, "Should I...pull over?"
She wiped that starting of her tears and chucked her bottle back in the bag and crossed her arms. Her voice thickened, "No," she ordered, pulling up all her defenses, "Just get me home."
Awkward silence stretched over them as thin as a rubber band until he turned over into MM district. "Tell me where your house is, I'll drop you till there."
She said the directions and V directed the car accordingly, wondering why she was telling directions to the house he was supposed to go to.
"Stop, it's right here," she said when V stopped in front of the house his party was. He looked at her confusedly, "Wha--"
She opened the door silently and gave a tight smile, "Thank you," she said, not really looking into his eyes and turned. V then dipped his head down and looked out of the passenger seat's window to see another similar house opposite the one he was supposed to go to. The girl opened the gate and her parents welcomed her, two little boys tugging at her jeans.
The door to that house shut close and V rolled into the house just opposite the girl's. Suga tried to slide open the window before J-Hope stopped him, "What are you doing? What if someone sees us?"
Suga scoffed and closed the window running downstairs to greet V. Jimin followed Suga too, smiling on the inside to meet that Meong-Cheong.
V stepped out of the car with the shopping cover in his hand and looked side to side before entering the house. He smiled and bro-hugged both Suga and Jimin, "Hey!"
Suga grabbed the cover from V's hand and smirked at him thankfully before running upstairs again where the music was playing from.
"You dropped the girl?" Jimin asked quietly. V nodded.
"Did she find out?" Jimin questioned further. V shook his head.
"Why do you look so dazed?" Jimin asked again. V just looked at him and shrugged, "Did you cut the cake yet?"
Jimin laughed, "No, Meong-Cheong how could we cut it without you? You're part of the seven!"
They both arrived at the second floor which was decorated with silly balloons and streamers. A karaoke session was going on! Jin brought in the cake from the kitchen and placed it on the table.
'Congratulations, BTS!' the cake read. The commemoration for breaking the World Record for the most number of awards in a year. Their head manager had run in with an infection and hadn't been able to organize an actual party, so this time they decided to have a personal one at their hometown, MM, where their dreams had been born.
They didn't think twice about the horrible past they would uncover if they returned and the process had already started, when Lisa got inside V's car. And it was building up, like a snowball when the cake cutting was over and the clock had struck 2.
They all had gone to sleep, but V was awake and staring out of the window whose curtains were slightly parted...at the opposite house. Only one room was lit, he guessed that was hers.
"I didn't ask her name," he muttered to himself. Jimin shifted sides in the bed next to Tae-hyung's and talked in his sleep, "No dating, Tae-hyung..." he muttered sluggishly and went back to sleep.
No dating, Tae-hyung repeated in his head and tried to get some sleep.
No dating.
