ƎᗡOƆ 𝟷𝟿| Life is a joke
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The sound of the heart rating machine and the cry of agony felt triggering in the nerves of him. Still, he kept on watching the two sisters in the hospital room through the glass window. One lying on the bed, dead, and the other crying her eyes out. And there that machine kept on signaling the stopping of heart rate.
The triggering feeling wasn't new to him. He felt it before but for someone else.
He gulped as his feet stumbled backward in an attempt of getting proper support. As sweat beads rolled down his pale skin, he came out from the hospital with hurried steps while taking heavy breaths. The cold monsoon winds weren't enough to calm down his state.
Only one sentence rang in his ears.
"Sorry, we couldn't save her. She stopped to respond in the third defibrillation only."

He jolted up from his deep slumber which turned into a scary one after a long time. Sweat beads rolled down his pale skin as he looked at the clock. His shocked eyes started to look for the mobile which was kept in a stand beside his bed-
"What happened to the phone?! I remember putting an alarm though-" His expression turned annoyed when he found that the alarm rang for 45 minutes straight but he didn't even hear it! He tapped on the sound buttons on the thin edges of the phone and found it was muted. "What the-"
Shaking his head in disappointment at himself, he moved out of the bed and walked towards the bathroom swiftly. But he came out as soon as he heard his phone's ringtone.
This agency doesn't understand privacy I swear!
"What? What happened?" He asked lazily in his groggy morning-voice making the other question himself that did he wake up the older one with this call. Cause...no one dares to wake him up from his sleep in fear of the impact which is not so good.
"It's me, JK, bro."
"You- what you want?" Yoongi asked anxiously when the sound of chuckle filled in his ears. He was already late and on the other hand, this boy was making it worse. He rolled his eyes and asked in gritted teeth, "I asked what is it DUMBA-"
"Cool cool. I called just to inform you that, you received a mail from Dr. Cha last evening-"
He was about to touch the red option on the screen when Jungkook yelled from the other end. He knew Yoongi was in no mood to listen to work shits just after waking up from his slumber.
"Hey, don't hang up! Another thing is there!"
"Now what?!" Saying that he just entered the bathroom with his phone in one hand and the other struggling to squish the toothpaste out of the tube on the brush.
Jungkook prayed to God at first and taking a deep breath he continued, "Actually V hyung changed the password of your Netflix account as because we didn't know the actual one-"
Yoongi's attempt of placing the paste on the brush got wasted as soon as he heard that. The paste squeezed out from the tube and landed on the mirror. He groaned internally and cut him off with his raged tone, "Fuck off!"
"Eh?!"
Without any further delay, he ended the call and pushed the phone away from his sight. Looking at the mess caused by the toothpaste, he sighed and went inside the shower booth with the mouth washer.
⌝⌟⌜⌞⌝⌟⌜⌞⌝⌟⌜⌞
"Am I not going to use mouth washer after the filling is done?" Mr. Chang asked him, who looked busy doing something on his laptop.
He looked at him from the top of his specs and said, "No."
"But...I heard most of my colleagues did that-"
"That's because they weren't my patient...unlike you." He interrupted his confused thoughts and said that while closing the laptop. "And I even allowed you to visit the party tonight and there's no restriction in your diet as well. Just enjoy yourself...as long as you can."
"Oh yeah, Dr. Hong! I'll enjoy to the fullest!" And with that, the old man started to laugh out loud with him sending a soft smile more likely a fake smile at his patient's excited state. His eyes remain fixated like a panther at his prey which basically went unnoticed cause of his excited state.
Everyone should enjoy their last moment...

Yoongi looked at his watch and 'tsk'-ed at the timing. He usually comes before everyone and leaves after everyone but today his daily schedule of arrival got messed up due to that damn mobile alarm.
As he was about to enter the rotating door a hand tugged his shoulder and he looked around to find Hoseok standing...not in a good state.
Yoongi didn't seem shocked at his sudden act from last night which got him confused as he was quite expecting questions flooding around him from his co-workers. When Yoongi just patted his back as an older brother and smiled asking, "You good now? Got headache?"
"No...I'm fine. But-"
Yoongi pushed open the door for both of them and they entered the large building together. When Yoongi interrupted and answered Hoseok's thoughts and questions which got him confused and made everything clear.
"The watchman called me last night about you coming here." Yoongi kept on walking at his swift pace and Hoseok kept on trailing behind. "It was quite a ruckus, Hope." He chuckled at what info he got from the security office.
"I'm sorry- I was-"
"Drunk?" Hoseok's face fell and he looked down, without knowing what to say next. "It's ok. But remember that it could've caused your suspension from the case and...I need your remaining special force."
"I know..." Hoseok nodded as they entered the cafeteria to have some breakfast as Yoongi just came out hurriedly without any morning nourishment. "But- Youngdo hyung is also going to provide us with the Governmental Police Force during the operations. Then do we really need mine?"
Yoongi was grabbing some egg bread and walnut cakes and was about to take a pouch of juice but Hoseok's question stopped him in the middle. He turned to look at him and took a deep breath before placing his hand on his shoulder.
"I trust our agency first than anyone else. Just prepare your team."

"Hyung! Hyung!"
Taehyung came running in Yoongi's cabin and his eyes landed on the figure that kept on laughing at something with Yoongi's laptop on his lap. Taehyung groaned at the sight of him and marched towards him.
"Where's Suga hyung?" He asked pulling out the headphones from Namjoon's ears.
"What the- what're you doing here?" Namjoon got surprised at his sudden arrival which felt as if he dropped from somewhere right then and there, to him.
"I need hyung. Not you. Where's he?"
Namjoon got saddened at his choice of words and he pouted after blurting, "Taehyung, I'm also your hyung..."
"Fuck off! Because of you, I and Kook got scolded by him yesterday! And you didn't even care to defend us!"
And you're disturbing me when I'm watching Friends...wow...karma is seriously a bitch.
Taehyung rolled his eyes at him when Namjoon started to laugh nervously. He knew what he did. It was his idea and advice to the two boys to sneakily watch 'Friends' from Yoongi's laptop when they were out to interrogate some witnesses and not get bored in the office.
He didn't wait there for Namjoon's answer and left there to search for Yoongi.
"Hey, V! Wait!" Namjoon had to inform him about Yoongi therefore he yelled at the boy but he was too late to do that as because Taehyung was gone by then.
"...but Suga hyung told me to ask him about Mr. Chang's phone calls."
He kept on blinking at the now half-closed door of the room.

Dressed in a luxurious suit, Mr. Chang entered the hall with his PA following behind. Greetings from old and new couples followed as he walked towards the limelight of the night- the soon-to-be-married couple stood there, as the engagement was over. Well...Mr. Chang was running late.
He wished them wholeheartedly and told them how sad his son was for not being able to attend the engagement party of the couple.
"Oh Mr. Chang, I thought you'll not be able to come as well and wish us today...Dad was saying you were sick." Exclaimed the guy who was standing with his soon-to-be wife.
"Your Dad is sick not me. That also in the head." The joke made the couple laugh heartily when the friend of Mr. Chang entered in the chat.
"Oh yeah! Just like you were for money, right?" Both the old men started to laugh at their own jokes for each other loudly when the others beside them grinned from ear to ear. "Now tell me how your filling surgery went. All good? Will you be able to binge onto the meat and alcohol?"
"Yes, dude! All fine! And I'm here to binge onto meat and alcohol man!"
Both the old men went to the food section while chatting, leaving the sweet couple behind.
He was about to chug down the drink that was placed in front of him when his PA came and handed him his phone signing him an important call came. Mr. Chang took the phone from his hand and stood up from his stool when the other kept on drinking.
Taehyung set the headset on and started the timer in his smartwatch, and waited for him to take the call as his feet kept on tapping the ground. The call detector kept on circling on the screen in the connected phone with another tabulator window with the call, to detect the location and name of the caller.
How much time a person needs to swipe the accept button lol?! God-
"Hello?"
"It's me. Dr. Hong." A deep voice erupted from the other end- which sounded familiar to both the listeners somehow.
Why does he sound familiar-
"Oh, Dr. Hong! Is there anything you want to tell me?" A smile started to form curving the corners of his lips at the name of the caller.
Dr. Hong? Who's that?
He chuckled at the old man's excited state and said, "Nothing to worry about, sir. Just wanted to know if you're having any problem with the filling now or not."
"I'm totally fine Dr. Hong. All thanks to you." He blurted out his gratitude towards him while shoving down his other hand into his pocket.
"Most welcome. I hope you enjoy to the fullest" -just then a loud call was heard from Mr. Chang's friend who was asking him to join him quickly which made the old man fail to hear the last part of his line- "...the last moments of your life."
What?! Last moments? Whose last moments?
"Oh yeah- sure, Dr. Hong! Thank you. Apparently, my friend is calling me right now so will have to end the call. Good night!"
Is he deaf?! He didn't hear it?! Is that a joke then?!
"Sure. Good night."
He shoved the phone inside his suit pocket as he went towards his friend circle and sat down with champagne in his hand on the same stool. A few more also joined the circle by now and everyone put their glasses up in the air and yelled together, "CHEERS!"
The call ended, but Taehyung was now yelling his thoughts out while looking at the ended call. He stood up and exclaimed, "What kind of nonsense was that?! Was that a joke?!"
"No, your life is a joke!" One of the co-workers yelled from beside him which made the others chuckle.
Embarrassment didn't drown him this time but a pile of thoughts regarding the statement and what he heard in the call. He sat down in his chair quietly when the others went back to mind their own business.
Putting down the headset, Taehyung mumbled gravely to himself, "Life...joke...Life is a joke?" Interrupting his thoughts, his phone dinged as a message notification popped up on the lock screen of his phone.

Without thinking much he ran towards Yoongi's office room.
