Jin's POV
An hour later, a heavy downpour had started as we were leaving, "I'm having a gut feeling, like something is wrong" Hoseok said, Jin brought out his phone, "Hyung what are you doing?" I asked, "Checking the house CCTV cameras, Min ji helped me connect it to long distances, and it's more clearer
and I can see from anywhere" "So far.. no disturbances, uh.. what? Shit driver speed fast!" "what happened?" We asked, " Min ji, I don't know, Yoongi locked her out and you know she has phobia for thunder" "Why would he do that?" Jimin asked, Hoseok picked up his phone to dial Yoongi's number but the connection wasn't going, "Shit the connection is lost" "Let me see the video" I passed the phone and I watched when she knocked on the door and woke Yoongi up, he was mad and he shut the door on her face, "The house phone call isn't going too" Jungkook said, I continue watching how she was knocking and begging until she sat down there by his door all scared and vulnerable, until she laid on the floor. When the car finally reached home, Jimin, Namjoon and Taehyung rushed upstairs and so did we, Jungkook held her, "She's so hot and she's unconscious" I knocked on Yoongi's door hard until he opened it, "You guys are back already?" He looked like he just woke up from sleep, he looked at all of us, and then Min ji who was shaking and shivering, "what happened to her?" He wanted to touch her but I blocked his way, "You know she has a goddamn phobia for thunder, how could you just leave her like that!" "Hyung what you did right now is really bad, min ji is scared of the rain, how dare you ignore her cries for help!" Jungkook carried her up, everyone was visibly mad, Namjoon threw him the keys, "Let's go, you're driving " "To where?" He asked, "Where else the hospital damnit! You know she stays with us when the rain falls! We accommodate her but why can't you?! And she loves you obviously but you shut the fucking door in her face! I could practically hear her tears from the CCTV cameras" He shouted, " Don't yell at me! If you're all so concerned why didn't you come earlier when the rain started? No? Because you didn't care!" "Don't you tell us we don't " I said, Taehyung punched the wall, "Ah, my back " Min ji whispered, the scarf around her neck fell and when I moved closer I saw the strangle and finger mark, "Yoongi?" "Hey, I was having relapses I had no idea what I was doing" "So you almost broke her neck??" Hoseok said, "See your fingers" Namjoon said, "My back, it hurts ahh" "What's wrong with her" "Something might be on her back, let's check it out, come on" I opened her bedroom and Jungkook carried her to her bed, I turned her over and was about to zip down her dress, "Hyung what are you doing!" Jimin asked, "I'm checking out her back relax" I zipped down her dress and stood up, "Woah" she had tattoos on her back, angel wings, "Are those tattoo?" Yoongi asked, "No, not that, look closer" That was when they saw it, "Whip mark" "Okay I'm not the one that did this come on" "No, you're not, the mark looks faded, something old, like it's been here already" Namjoon said, Hoseok tried to touch it and traced his fingers on the mark and tattoo and she immediately shuddered, "No don't touch me, I won't do it again I promise" "Is that-" Yoongi was asking, "Yeah, relapse" Jungkook said, I carried her this time, "Let me do it" "No, if you care about her why don't you just show her instead of treating her like crap, she enjoys your company and don't think we haven't seen the way you both look at each other" we went downstairs and Yoongi drove us to the hospital where she was admitted, after waiting patiently the doctor came out, "She's alright physically" "But why do I sense a but coming?" Taehyung said, "Tell us everything doctor right now" Jungkook said, "Her mind is locked, she's not waking up" "What do you mean she isn't waking up " Yoongi asked, Namjoon stood up and looked at the doctor, "I-i mean her mind and body isn't in sync, she's experiencing a traumatic event in her mind so she can't wake up until someone brings her out of it" "What do you suggest we do then doctor" Jimin asked, "Take her to see a psychologist" I didn't even wait any further, I picked up the phone and called Sung yeol, "Call the doctor to come over to the hospital now" I entered inside the ward along with others, min ji was just unconscious not moving.
About an hour later, the doctor came inside, and he checked Min ji, "I would need no one in the room , this is gonna be hard she's deep inside her subconsciousness" "Can't one of us stay at least?" Jungkook asked, "I'd like to stay" Hoseok said, "It can't be, it's not possible" all of us had to leave the room, we were waiting outside, when we heared screams and we rushed inside immediately, Min ji was awake and crying, when Yoongi wanted to touch her she shifted away scared, Jimin hugged her immediately, "It's us, it's okay" "What are we doing in the hospital?" I looked at the doctor, as if knowing what I wanted to say he said, "She's alright now, she can go home" "You are sure? What if something happens" "That will be up to her, right now her mind is a maze, only she can bring herself out of it" "Can you walk? Can she walk?" Jimin asked the doctor, "Guys what's wrong with you? I can walk, see" she stood up, but was about to fall but Yoongi caught her, "Not too fast or you'll be dizzy" He said, "Let's go" Taehyung led her outside and the guys followed her, when I was about to leave the doctor stopped me, so only me, Namjoon and Hoseok was remaining, "I think part of her brain has been wiped" "What do you mean wiped?" Hoseok asked, "I'm guessing it is just my analysis but it seems a part of her memory is frozen" "Maybe it has something to do with her past trauma" Namjoon said, "Yeah, a way of covering up the pains, she's blocking it because it might be too painful" "Please be watchful of her, she's going to be having serious relapses and brain fogging, do not let her experience something traumatic or painful" "We understand doctor" Hoseok said and we left. We joined them in the car and the driver drove off, Hoseok took off his jacket and covered Min ji, "We're going tomorrow right, my things have been packed already" Min ji said, I wanted to say no because of her health but Namjoon beat me to it, "Yeah, we'll be going tomorrow, it's a promise after all" "How long are we going to stay?" "probably just a week because of leaving the base unprotected and stuff like that" Taehyung said, "Well that's fine by me I'm okay, as long as we have a lot of fun, where are we going to?" "Gyeonggi-do here in Seoul" Jungkook said, "Really, I'd like to go skiing first and swimming and also hiking in the mountains, let's go camping please!" She started coughing and held her throat, "Are you okay?" I asked, Yoongi gave her a handkerchief, she looked at him, and took the handkerchief, "Is it not your fault when you strangled me" "If you don't want it you can give it back" she hit his hand, "Why would you collect something you have already given, how petty" "Oh so it's petty now?" "actually, it's just one of your attributes, you're forever handsome baby boy" "So you still have mouth to talk huh?" "It's actually sweet, want a taste?" "I'll shoot you" "I'm looking forward to it " they were bickering and fighting and we were laughing, it was like what happened an hour ago didn't just happen but at the back of our minds we knew that Min ji was someone who suffered on a whole new range just like us or maybe more who knew.
We arrived home and Min Ji went straight to bed, "Good night guys, see you tomorrow" "Min ji, if anything happens at all, come find me first okay" "Ohkay I will" she went upstairs while I went to my room, the moment I changed I didn't bother showering and just slept off.
The next day, I woke up quite late, I came downstairs yawning and went to the table to eat, "Good morning everyone" I started eating, "Have you packed your things yet Hyung" Namjoon asked, and I shook my head, Min Ji came down so excited, "Good morning guys! Guess what?" "What is it?" Jungkook asked, "I picked out the outfit you guys will wear, suits are too formal and boring, we're going on a vacation so it's to let loose okay" she sat down to eat, "Really? What's it?" Jimin asked, "I'm sure it's shorts and tank top" Yoongi said, "Huh! If you want that I can give that to you, anyways it's really great" I nodded, "I'm looking forward to it" Namjoon said, "Me too" Jungkook said. "Are you done packing?" Hoseok asked, "Of course I'm done with that, will Sung yeol and dae young be following us?" "you want them to follow us?" Taehyung asked, "Yeah, I have grown fond of them besides we need bodyguards too, please" "No" Yoongi said obviously angry, "Yes,it's okay, I'll tell them" Taehyung said, "Hey" Yoongi shouted, "Hyung it isn't bad, it sounds like you're jealous that she's close to them" Taehyung said and I laughed, "Me? Jealous? Don't talk shit" "Guys I'm done, thanks for the food, what time will we be leaving?" She asked, I checked my time, "Since this is just 7:58, maybe uh.." "9 is good" Taehyung said, she nodded and went back upstairs, "Hyung! Pass me the hotdogs" Jimin asked, "It's finished" "What?" "Min ji ate the four" "Really? In that small body? Aish, I really wanted some" After breakfast I went back to my room to start packing, I saw the cloth Min ji dropped and laughed, "It's been so long" I held the cloth, dropping it I continued packing up a few simple clothes and sweaters and everything we would need, then I went to shower, after that I dressed up, carrying my bag I went downstairs and saw others too and I started laughing, "Hyung it's not fair, she gave you, Jimin and Namjoon jeans" Jungkook said, all of them were on shorts, "I like it" Hoseok said, as he wore his jacket, Sung yeol and dae young came and was taking our bags to the car, Min ji came down wearing a white crop top with a brown leather mini skirt, and brown leather jacket with brown leather knee boots, she was wearing a bandana around her hair that she curled letting down, "That's because it suits you all, I really love it, thank you for wearing it" Sung yeol came in to carry her bag, "Sung yeol! You know you're coming with us, we're going to have fun okay" she rubbed his hair like a child and he flushed, "Hey, why would you rub a man's hair like that!" Yoongi shouted, "why? I'm not the one who told you to give me a cute bodyguard" she sighed, "Finally going out without all the suits, and having dealings with all the mafias" she walked out of the house to the car, "Wait for me" I followed her out.

The trip lasted about an hour, and in the car min Ji talked non stop keeping us entertained and updated about the Mafia world especially most of her missions, when we finally arrived she got down first and raised her hand, "Finally! I hate riding in cars, bike is more better" "You got that right baby" Jungkook put his hand over her shoulder, "Yep, with the wind in your hair" Namjoon said, "I'm so glad you agree with me" "Hey, we agree with you too" Hoseok said, "Yep, she's forgotten us already" "Well maybe, I don't think so, if you did, you wouldn't give me those rules and regulations" "Woah, this unfilial girl" Taehyung said, all of us laughed, "We have already booked the hotel in advance so let's go" "Let me help you Sung yeol" Yoongi threw his bag to her, "Hey" "Get working slave" "It's only a very week till the deal is off right?" Hoseok asked, "Yep and then I'll beat this crappy master" Yoongi laughed, "I look forward to it " he entered the hotel, then we followed behind him, the place had a lot of tourist attractions so people were much, as we stood waiting Min ji bumped into a little girl, "Be careful" Taehyung helped her stand up, "Oh, where is the girl, I'm sorry okay I didn't see you there" the girl used her hand to gesticulate that she couldn't talk, "Is that sign language?" Jimin asked, "How-" before Taehyung could say anything Min Ji started talking to her in sign language, "Here you go sirs, your rooms are ready" "Thank you" "You know sign language?" "yep" "You shouldn't be too surprised, knowing the kind of person she is" Yoongi said and Min Ji stuck her toungue at him, "Jealousy! Where's my room" I opened the door to a room and looked at her, and she entered, the first thing she did was started checking out the entire room, "What are you doing" "Hidden cameras, or anything suspicious" "Wow, you're too insecure" Hoseok said, "Call it habit, thank you guys, so what are we going to do now" "Guys can we just rest for a while please, I'm hungry" Taehyung said, "Fine" she closed her door, I turned to the others, "Here's your room key, let's meet downstairs at the restaurant for another round of food" I entered my room, after arranging my stuff, I opened the door, bumping into Jungkook, "You're ready?" "yes Hyung " I put my hand on his shoulder, "Let's go" we went downstairs, Min ji was already there waiting along with Sung yeol and dae young, Jimin and Yoongi were also coming, all of us met at the table where Min ji, Sung yeol and dae young was, immediately they saw us, Sung yeol and dae young stood up like protective bodyguards, "Guys come on, this is the table with the best view" all of us sat down, "Did you order anything?" Namjoon asked and she shook his head, "Let's go order" I told Namjoon and we both stood up and went to place orders, we ordered only snacks and drink, just something light, then we went back and waited for them to bring it, after a few seconds they brought our orders and all of us ate everything, as we were talking and laughing, a waiter came to us, "This is an invitation letter from the hotel, being special guests in our hotel you're all invited exclusively to the wedding being held in our hotel, it's just for fun" Hoseok took it, "Tell the manager thank you" Taehyung said, and he scurried out, ad if he was afraid, "Are you going?" I asked Namjoon, "Maybe, I don't know" "I want to go" Jungkook said, "Me too Hyung" Jimin seconded, "Do you guys even have formal wears?" Min ji asked, we smiled, "I knew it!" "it was a just in case scenario" Yoongi said, "Huh- of course it would be, and let me guess, you brought guns too?" We didn't say anything, "Okay" "Are you going to the wedding invitation?" Hoseok asked her, "Yep, I'm surely going" "Who's going to be your date to the wedding?" She pointed at Yoongi, "No way, keep dreaming" he said, "Oh really? It's your loss then, maybe I'll take Sung yeol" "No way I forbid you" Yoongi said, "why forbidding her if you don't want to take her?" Namjoon said, "Because - whatever I don't have to explain myself to anyone" Min ji stood up, "If you guys don't want to go skiing or skating we could go swimming, the hotel has a pool you know" "I think I'll pass" Jimin said, "Okay suit yourself, I'm going back, I'm full" she walked away, "I'm going to sleep" Yoongi said, Namjoon opened the letter, it starts by 9 this night" "What a nice timing" Taehyung said.
After eating, I went back to my room and just laid down to rest, after some time, I brought out my laptop and just checked out some frequency and activities, after Jungkook came into my room and we played for a while, "I'm tired, let's go swim" Jungkook said, "Okay, I'm even feeling hot" We wore swimming pants then shirt and shorts and went downstairs, the moment we arrived, Yoongi and Jimin came down too, "Thought you didn't want to come" "Changed my mind" Jimin said, "Guys did you see what happening" Hoseok said, he was all wet too, "Min Ji is causing a pretty big commotion" Namjoon said smiling, all of us turned towards the pool where she was, some guys were staring at her even though she was doing nothing, "there's no harm there of course" I said, the pool was quite big, some people were swimming including girls in bikinis, "Wait for it" Taehyung said, min ji now moved to the entrance of the pool and came out immediately, "What?" I said, every boy in the pool turned immediately, she wore a purple bikini and her shape was.. wow, she even had a little ab, she wore a purple gown for sun bathing and came to us, "Told ya" Taehyung whispered, "Thought you guys said you weren't coming?" She rubbed her wet hair, "I'm glad we did, see all these boys ogling you" Taehyung said , "Uh.. I didn't realize, don't worry, you told me not to get a boyfriend, besides they are all ugly, I only have eyes for him" she looked at Yoongi, "Be dreaming" he said, "That's enough, come on, let's go for a swim!!" Hoseok dragged all of us and we fell into the pool"

That night as I buttoned up my suit, I looked into the mirror admiring my handsome face, then I turned around and left the room, we all agreed to meet down at the lobby, so I went on, Yoongi and Hoseok was already there, so I sat down, Sung yeol and dae young came down too, we talked a few sentences and we were all busy on our phones, we heared whispers from time to time which is a normal thing already, very soon everyone was down, "Where's Min ji?" Jungkook asked, "There" we saw her approaching us all made up, her long hair cascading down her body like water on the white long gown she was wearing that had a split by the side and a white ribbon on her hair, "You would think she was the bride tonight, "Are you the bride?" Jimin asked, "I don't care, I dress for myself" she said, Taehyung took her hand and wrapped it around his arm, "What's going on?" I asked, "I'm her date tonight" Taehyung said, "What?" All of us shouted, "Not fair I wanted to be her date" Jungkook said, "Me too" I said, "Well you came late" "Could we go now?" Namjoon asked and we nodded so we walked to the venue, when we entered everyone's eyes fell on us, we occupied one table, Min ji grabbed the glass of wine when I took it from her, "No drinking remember?" She pouted, "I'm just smelling it" the wedding began and finished, at some point min ji was crying when they were exchanging rings, "Hey, why are you crying?" Hoseok asked, "It's so good to be true" I smiled, "looks like you'll be crying on your wedding day" Namjoon said, "No way" "We shall see" Yoongi said.
During the reception, everyone just had eyes on us, we knew it was to talk about business, and the other half was because of Min ji, she was quite lively tonight and so beautiful, her beauty was dangerous, only a few brave ones came up to us to talk, but we immediately sent them away tactifully, after the couple dance, it was time to throw the flower of the bride and groom, "Aren't you going?" Taehyung asked, "Yeah who knows you might be lucky?" I said, "Yuck no way, I'm sitting here, I have no interest in that" when the bride threw the bouquet we watched it go higher than anticipated and as our table was the closet, we thought it would land on the table but Min Ji caught it immediately, everyone started clapping, it was amusing and we even laughed at her, "No! It was going to hit the wine that's why I caught it, it's not me, do it over" "There's no do-overs" I laughed at her, "Now it's time for the groom to throw his bouquet, who would be the lucky man to dance with this beautiful enchantress" "what? Dance?" Min ji said, just as the flower was thrown, we were watching were it would land, all the men were eager to catch it making me disgusted when someone caught it in the air and landed, it was Yoongi, "Really?" Taehyung said, "Suga Hyung? When did he reached there" Jimin asked, he looked at Min Ji and gestured for her to come, "Great we have the lucky winners of the day, please come to the dance floor, "Yoongi Hyung is better than all this ogling demons around" Namjoon said, "That's true, go min ji" she finally stood up and went to him, the music started playing as they bowed and danced, we watched the performance, "Does it look like they have chemistry? I'm not seeing well" I asked, "It does look like, I can't read their lips from here" Namjoon said, "It looks like they are the bride and groom instead" Hoseok said, "Hyung you read my thoughts" Jungkook said.
Min Ji's POV
The rest of the week was so fun, we went skiing the next day, and camping the third day, on the fourth day, I was beginning to think that my extended happiness won't last as I thought, we were hiking up the snowy mountain, and I was carrying my bag and also Yoongi's bag, "Ah, I'm tired" I complained, "Hyung you're not being fair to Min ji" "It's already late should we be going down?" Hoseok said "this is just 4:15pm" Jimin said too, I fell down then got up angrily, removing all the bags on me, "That's it, I'm fed up, I'm tired and won't carry them again!! And I'm done being your slave, I don't care if it's just a week to finish, no, I'm breaking the deal I don't care what the consequences is and-" we heared rumbling and saw an avalanche falling down just in front of me and I was suddenly paralyzed having flashes of memories I don't remember having, "Min ji!!" All of them shouted and Yoongi immediately pushed me out of the way, both of us fell down a cliff with water, I immediately reversed making both of us land on the safer side especially Yoongi but I jammed my shoulder a little against rocks.
