It had been three days since everyone was back home. Tanya was so happy to have YoungBae and both of her babies back, and so was everyone else. Since Tuesday no one had heard from Jiyong but HyunAe said she heard he was back in Seoul. After hearing this news Tanya started to get upset again and wondered if Jiyong would try anything else, but YoungBae reassured her that he wasn’t going to let anything happen. But the thought of him still crossed her mind.
That afternoon they both decided to stay home and relax that day. As of now they were in the living room watching television. Tanya was sitting on the couch and sitting in between her legs was YoungBae. Both the babies were in their room sleeping.
“I want ice cream.” Tanya said suddenly.
“I don’t think we have any.”
“Can you go check?”
YoungBae got up and started to walk into the kitchen but before he could her heard his cell ring he went over to the lamp table and picked it up.
“Hello?”
“YoungBae!” a voice that seemed to be Daesung cried. “You have to get Tanya somewhere safe.” He added with an alarmed voice.
“What’s wrong?!” YoungBae went into the bedroom closing the door behind him.
“Kye Hoon is dead. And we think Jiyong killed him.” Daesung warned.
YoungBae couldn’t express in words how he felt at that moment. But he did believe that this was the final resort for Jiyong, he has been against the relationship from the start and would do anything to stop it even if it meant death.
“All right, I know where we can go.” YoungBae then opened the door to come face to face with Tanya. He then hung up the phone.
“What’s wrong now?” she asked with a worried look.
“Just get ready. We’re going to my parents’ house.”
Tanya didn’t question him and proceeded to get her and the twins ready. After everyone was ready YoungBae rushed them out to the car and on the way.
Big Bang’s Apartment
The rest of the boys and HyunAe were sitting on the couch not saying much to each other. On the other hand Seunghyun was furious, he couldn’t believe Jiyong would stoop so low to get what he wants. But he promised to himself he wouldn’t let him get anywhere near the apartment or even let him in.
“If anyone knocks on the door, no one’s home.” He expressed in a serious low voice.
Everyone nodded in agreement. They all seemed to be afraid.
“I know something bad is going to happen. I just know it.” SeungRi expressed in a depressed tone.
“Don’t worry.” Daesung patted his back.
Back with YoungBae
They had safely made it to his parent’s house and were sitting in the living room with his older brother. Tanya’s father had also come over to make sure everything was okay. His parents had taken the babies into their room and set the carriers on the bed, then coming back into the living room and sitting down with everyone else. Everyone kept an eerie silence to themselves until Tanya’s father decided to speak.
“Does anyone know where he is?” he asked in a seriously concerned voice.
YoungBae sighed. “No, no one’s heard from him.”
“You think he might try the boys’ apartment?” HyunBae added.
“Probably” Tanya answered blankly. She really had nothing to say at this point. Even though she wanted to break down and cry but she knew it wouldn’t solve anything.
“I never thought he would stoop so low. It’s just unbelievable.” His mother said resting her head on her husbands’ shoulder.
“Nothing’s going to happen. Let’s just make sure he doesn’t find out you two are here.” His father reassured.
The room fell silent again.
The Boys’ Apartment
After an hour HyunAe turned off all the lights in the main areas, and everyone retreated to their rooms.
HyunAe was lying down on the bed watching Daesung use the computer. They were both alarmed by the sudden ring. She looked down at the caller id to see unknown number; she knew it was Jiyong so she let it ring. But it continuously kept ringing every second after it hung up, so she finally picked it up in fear.
“Hello?” her voice was shaky and nervous.
A laugh appeared from the other line it was then followed by complete silence. “It’s been forever.” Jiyong finally talked.
“What the hell do you want?” She questioned in a cold voice.
“Where are they?” He got straight to the point.
“I don’t know.”
“This really isn’t the time to play any games. You heard what happened to Kye Hoon? That might be your fate if you don’t cooperate.” He warned with a tone of annoyance.
“I said I don’t know.” HyunAe shouted and hung up the phone throwing it on the bed. Daesung came over and tried to console her but it wouldn’t work. She sat on the bed and told him she knew someone was going to get hurt badly.
Back with Tanya and YoungBae
The couple had finally put some of their troubles aside and actually started to talk about everything that was happening. After they poured their hearts out the best they could a new understanding was found. That they both wanted to end this for good and no matter what they’d always admire and love each other.
“How long do we have to stay here?” Tanya asked.
“When I think he’s gone.” YoungBae replied sternly.
“You do realize he might stay until he finds us. Right?”
Clearly frustrated he turned around to face her and held her left hand. “I know him and he can’t wait for things especially if he can’t find them. He’ll just give up awhile after that, so just wait.”
All she did was nod, trusting he knew best.
They ended up falling asleep on the couch and didn’t wake up until 9 that night. The couple decided to go back to the apartment and leave the babies’ with his parents since they didn’t mind. The ride back to the apartment was quiet with only a few words being spoken.
When they got into the apartment Tanya went to sit on the couch while YoungBae went into the bathroom to take a shower. She sat there for a few minutes and took off her shoes, then deciding to get up and go into the bedroom.
YoungBae was just about to take off his white t-shirt until he heard Tanya give out a loud shriek. He ran out of the bathroom to see that the bedroom door was closed. For some reason he knew whatever was behind that door was something he would dread to see. But that didn’t stop him from opening the door to face his worst fear.
And what he saw was his worst fear.
There it was.
Tanya with tears flowing down her cheeks. All while she was being held at gun point by no other than Jiyong himself. YoungBae walked closer to the horrible sight but was startled when the gun was suddenly pointed at him.
“Get any closer and you’ll be dead.” Jiyong said in a loud booming voice, sending the message all around the apartment.
“I’m getting sick of this shit! What do you want?!” YoungBae raised his voice to a degree no one had heard before.
Jiyong laughed and grabbed Tanya tighter. “I’m sick of it too. You know I didn’t approve of this relationship in the beginning! Leave her!” Jiyong replied not letting his guard down.
YoungBae knew this was a critical point but he wasn’t going to back down from this, he wasn’t going to let Tanya go even if it meant life or death.
“I’ll never leave her.” YoungBae said sternly.
“Why do you have to be so stupid?!” Jiyong was amazed at how even this situation didn’t shake him.
“Because I love her.” He paused and took a breath. “Shoot me instead.”
“No!” Tanya shouted with more tears falling. Jiyong roughly threw her on to the bed. And stayed positioned now aiming at YoungBae.
“It didn’t have to be like this.” Jiyong replied with a snarl.
YoungBae’s world suddenly went black.
-----
“YoungBae? Baby you’re up.”
YoungBae heard a faint voice call his name. He rubbed his eyes and opened them to find Tanya sitting beside him on what was to be a hospital bed. He tried to sit up but felt a sharp pain in his stomach causing him to lie back down.
“What happened?” He asked as he looked at his surroundings to see he was in a white hospital room.
“He shot you in your stomach.” Tanya stroked his pale cheek. “Jiyong’s dead.”
YoungBae’s face dropped in an instant. “What happened?”
“After he left the apartment he drove to the old neighborhood and shot himself. Police didn’t get there in time. But they did find this piece of paper.” Tanya handed him a folded piece of paper from her hoodie pocket.
YoungBae unfolded the note and began to read it attentively.
‘I shot my best friend, I don’t deserve to live.’
YoungBae folded it back and slowly ripped it into pieces then throwing it in the trash can beside the bed.
----------------------
Everyone attended the funeral. Jiyong’s close and immediate family, YoungBae’s parents, Tanya’s father, the boys, and the YG artists and staff. It left an eerie feeling in everyone’s hearts to know that someone everyone loved and cherished had led such a despicable side life and died so young. There wasn’t a dry eye at the cemetery that day. After the service people left little by little but YoungBae remained in hit seat holding a white rose.
Tanya had just finished saying goodbye to the boys. She turned around to see YoungBae still sitting down quietly, also he was very still. She walked over and sat down next to him patting his shoulder. But still he gave no response.
“It wasn’t his fault.” YoungBae whispered those words as he got out of his seat and placed the rose on the closed casket gently. Tanya then walked up behind him and waited. YoungBae touched the side of the casket for the very last time and turned to Tanya holding her hand softly and leading them back to the car.
It was so. A whole new path could now be discovered for the both of them.
A Special World
A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.
Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.
And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.
