Chapter 97
Jimin drove home to the mansion, he and Unmei had driven in silence. Both of their thoughts were at the event which would be happening the day after tomorrow.
He stopped before the gates and waited for it to open, he drove slowly up the driveway and stopped the car. "Will you be alright?"
Unmei unhooked her seatbelt, "I will be fine. I guess I will see you the day after tomorrow."
Jimin nodded, "Yes... May it go well."
Unmei opened the car door, "We will have to put all of our trust in Hoseok."
With that said she closed the car door and headed to her car. Jimin watched as she got in and left for the gates.
He let out a soft sigh, climbing out and stood before the mansion. "I guess I need to relax- alone."
He slowly dragged himself to climb the stairs and enter the house through the front door.
Tae was driving frantically through the streets of the city to look for Namjoon, he feared what he might be doing.
After an hour of driving, he found him sitting on a bench in front of non-other than the Yunamei building. 'Strange.'
Namjoon sat staring, 'So the building is pointing the way... Why is it pointing the way and what is the connection?'
He didn't notice the car that stopped in front of him, not even when the driver got out and stood before him.
'Yunamei... That should be the clue and-' He blinked as a hand waved in front of his eyes and he looked up, "Tae?"
Tae chuckled, "A penny for your thoughts?"
He sat next to Namjoon, "So are you going to tell me what is going on in that head of yours?"
Namjoon sighed, "I have figured out Jin's clue but I am thinking about the connection it has to his plan."
"What is the answer to your clue?" Tae asked while folding his arms.
"He said that the tallest building would point the way and I found it," he pointed to the Yunamei building.
Tae followed his finger, he didn't let out a sound. He knew full well what it had meant, "What about the building?"
"I think that is where Yumei will be the day after tomorrow, I want to about the building but they didn't want to let me in." Namjoon spoke quickly, "That is why I am here trying to figure what the connection is."
Tae licked his lips, "Why don't we go home and get some rest. The answer will come to you eventually."
Namjoon turned his gaze to Tae, "My mind will not rest... I need the answers now."
"What will you do with the answers?" Tae asked slowly, he was worried that Namjoon might find a way to sneak in the building. He had to keep him away.
"I will then come up with a plan to save Yumei. I- Tae... Jin sent a proof of life foto a few hours ago."
Tae let out a gasp, "That- I am sorry but that means she is alright."
"How can she be alright?" Namjoon asked in a low voice that Tae had to lean closer to hear, "What would you have done?"
Tae unfolded his arms and placed his hand on his shoulder, "Joonie... You are not going to help her by sitting here trying to find answers. Let us go home."
Namjoon stood up from the bench, Tae followed suit and they walked to his car. After they climbed in, Tae started the car.
They drove in silence, Namjoon was staring out the window and his thoughts returned to the Yunamei building.
'I have to find the connection, Yunamei is the building that Jin wants to end this.'
He took in a small breath, 'The building is part of the Yakuza so why would Jin... It is not part of the Kim family so it makes-'
"Namjoon you are thinking too long, you should rest," Tae said as he pulled the car into his driveway, it was already getting late.
"You say that but my mind does not want to switch off," Namjoon replied without looking at him.
Tae opened the car door, "Come on. I will make us some dinner and then we can talk."
Namjoon followed Tae up the stairs to his apartment, he wasn't in the mood to talk he wanted to take action. "Tae... I am tired of talking we have to do something."
Tae didn't reply as he opened his apartment door, 'That is what I am afraid of.'
The door opened and Tae dropped the keys and turned to Namjoon, "I will make us some dinner."
Namjoon nodded and went to sit on the couch, his hands laid on his knees. 'Yunamei, so part of the Kazuma and the meaning... Yunari and Yumei?'
He blinked, that was it! Jin wants this to end on Mr Kazuma's building of the two people he loved most.
Yoongi waited twenty minutes before he opened his bedroom door, he peeked his head around the corner and he smiled.
It was dark and no sounds were coming from anywhere, he stepped outside and he closed his bedroom door silently.
He crept a few feet left, keeping himself against the wall, 'I just need to make sure she is alright.'
He counted as he kept himself along the wall when he stopped three doors down, "This should be it." He whispered to himself.
His hand reached for the doorknob it was locked, he cursed silently and took a look at the knob and them the lock.
He took out his wallet and a bank card, luckily the knob is old fashioned and he would be able to click the lock with the card.
Yoongi took a glance left and right before proceeding to place the card between the lock and the doorway.
He stood there for five minutes before the lock clicked and it slowly swung inward. He stepped in and his eyes fell to the bed, 'She seems to be sleeping.'
Yoongi closed the door behind him and made his way to the bed, Yumei was sleeping soundlessly and he knelt at the bedside.
His hand reached out and his fingers trailed her cheek, "Yumei," he said her name softly.
Yumei's eyes fluttered open and her lips parted but Yoongi's hand reached out and covered her mouth. "Do not make a sound."
Yumei nodded at him and he removed his hands, his lips formed a smile. "I have missed you..."
Yumei blinked slowly, she thought that she might be dreaming. "Ooni? I am not dreaming am I?"
He shook his head, "No. You are not dreaming fairy princess, I am here."
"Have you come to take me home?" Yumei whispered, her eyes full of hope.
Yoongi felt his heartbreak, "No. I have to talk to you about something and this might break us."
"Break us? Ooni, what on earth are you talking about?" She sat upright, her gaze not leaving his.
Yoongi bit his lip, was she going to understand when he tells her? Would their friendship survive this ordeal that Jin had placed them in?
"Yumei..." He started, "You are in my family's house and Jin is my brother..."
