LISA didn't want to listen to anyone and removed the IV fluid injected on her left hand.

"No, Lisa!" Jisoo tried to stop her but Lisa didn't listen.

She was about to leave her bed when Jungkook, Namjoon, and Hoseok pinned her down on the hospital bed.

"Let go off me! Taehyung!" Lisa cried out.

"Calm down, baby. Please!" Jungkook held her shoulders, and kissed her forehead to calm her.

"Jennie, call the doctor!" Jisoo instructed which Jennie immediately complied.

Jin and Suga looked at their dongsaeng with worry.

"Lisa, caln down. Taehyung will be here." Jisoo assured her.

"We'll find him." Suga spat next.

Lisa met Jungkook's eyes who were nearly about to burst into tears. She finally stopped wriggling herself and started to calm down.

The Doctor finally arrived and started to examine Lisa. Namjoon, Hoseok, and Jungkook finally let go of her.

"Her deep sleep must have caused her to have such a nightmare. I mean, her vitals are stable. But her heart rate is slowly increasing. I think her sudden consumption of her consciousness along with her possible nightmare might have triggered her brain and looked for your friend, Taehyung which she last saw in her dream." The Doctor hypothesized.

Jisoo's eyes squinted, "So is she gonna be alright, Doc?"

"Don't worry, she'll be fine. She just needs to calm down a little more. And it would be better if the friend she's been looking for will show himself." The Doctor answered and all of them looked at Lisa who is busy getting hugged and cuddled by Jennie on the hospital bed.

"We will get him here, Doc. Thank you." Jin said and escorted the doctor out of the room.

"What did the Doctor say?" Jungkook immediately approached Jin.

"She's fine. But first, we have to find Taehyung and get him here before Lisa wrecks havoc again." He instructed the younger.

"Taehyung..." They heard Lisa muttered.

She's been muttering the name for like an hour since she came back from her senses.

Jungkook is doing his best to kill the jealousy out of him and just focus on helping Lisa. But everytime she mutters a name that wasn't his, it slowly kills him. Like he's getting choked right in the chest.

"I'll call him." Namjoon brought his phone out of his pocket and went out of the room to make a call.

On the other hand, the door swung open again. Revealing Chaeyoung and Jimin rushing towards Lisa.

"Oh my gosh, Lisa!" Chaeyoung engulfed the youngest in a hug.

"Chae!" Lisa hugged her back with equal excitement and longing.

Well, what can they say? Chaeyoung and Lisa are the best of friends. They're like Romy and Michele in that one classic movie. Or you can even suspect them as sisters at first meeting.

They just love being together and always there for each other.

"I thought I'd lost you!" Chaeyoung hugged her tighter.

"Chaeyoung..." Lisa pulled away from the hug.

"Yeah?" She responded.

"I wanna go home. Please." Lisa begged her bestfriend.

Chaeyoung nodded at her immediately and hugged her again. She then looked at their unnies and oppa's who looked worried for their maknaes.

7:52 pm...

It's been nearly 24 hours since they last saw Taehyung. Only Jungkook and Lisa were left back in their house to rest. Jungkook volunteered to looked over Lisa while the rest finds Taehyung.

"Fuck, I can't reach him!" Jennie cussed and nearly threw her phone off of Jungkook's car, which they borrowed for a while.

She's been calling Taehyung's number since they left the hospital but she couldn't reach him and she's starting to get annoyed. But of course, worried too for her cousin.

"Calm down, Jen. Just keep on trying." Suga instructed her.

"I'm so fucking worried! He's been missing since Yesterday! Where the hell did he went?!" Jennie stomped her feet.

"We're heading towards his apartment now. He might be there. Don't worry, babe." Suga assured his girlfriend.

Jennie sighed deeply, "I'm gonna chop his head off if we find him." And continued dialling his number.

On the other hand, Jin and Jisoo are busy roaming around the city, asking people and showing them Taehyung's picture if they saw him.

"Excuse me, have you seen this guy?" Jin asked a random citizen but they just shook their heads.

"Excuse me, Sir. Have you seen him?" Jisoo showed Taehyung's picture to a random guy they passed through but got ignored.

They did this multiple times for the past hours. Not even one, saw Taehyung yet.

"It's getting late, Jisoo. We should head back home-"

"No. We have to find Taehyung. For Lisa. For... us." Jisoo cuts him off.

"I understand. But you look exhausted. You need rest, baby." Jin held her shoulders.

All Jisoo could do is lower her head and let out a deep sigh, trying her best to stop her tears from breaking out.

She felt the weight of responsibility when Lisa came. She felt like she had the need to protect that clumsy little brat. She felt the need to be that unnie as well as a mom to Lisa.

And now that their lives are messed up, she felt deep down her bones the failure she did in those roles.

Jin knew that face. He knew Jisoo too well that he engulfed her in a huge tight hug which she perfectly needed.

"Sshhh, it's not your fault. This is no one's fault but Han." Jin gave her kisses on top of her head.

Jisoo closed her eyes and hugged her boyfriend back. Letting out the tears that wanted freedom in the past days.

"It's gonna be alright. It's gonna be, okay." He assured her.

And Jisoo nodded.

On the other side, Namjoon and Hoseok were on their way to the Police Station to declare Taehyung's disappearance. Though, they can only declare a missing person if they disappeared within 24 hours.

They got 10 minutes left to report his disappearance.

"That kid is gonna receive a lot of headlock from me." Hoseok said.

"We're finding him to make sure he's safe, Hoseok. Not to kill him." Namjoon chuckled while he focuses on driving towards the station.

"Either way, he needs a piece of me for making us worried and for ditching his girl." He spat at him.

Namjoon furrowed his brows, "His girl? Who?"

"Lisa, duhh?" Hoseok shrugged his shoulders in the sassiest way.

Namjoon chuckled, "They're not even a couple."

"Well, if he's courageous enough and not acting like a coward like Jungkook, he'll get what he deserves." Hoseok said.

Namjoon glanced at him, "So, you're rooting for Taehyung all along?"

"Yeah. He's a good kid. Wait... Don't tell me, you're on Jungkook's side?" Hoseok squinted his eyes at Namjoon.

Namjoon smirked, "I'm the President. Jungkook's better than Taehyung."

"Oh nah, you did not..." Hoseok shook his head continuously as Namjoon only chuckled at him.

And the bet started.

8:01 pm...

"It's been almost 24 hours, Jungkook. Why can't he be here yet?" Lisa asked Jungkook while he's fixing her bed for Lisa.

"He'll be home, Lisa." Jungkook sighed, tired of hearing Taehyung's name from Lisa over and over.

"But it's been a day!" Lisa stomped her feet as she stood beside Jungkook who is also fixing his floor bed for him to sleep at.

"Let's just sleep. You won't even notice, he'll be here tomorrow when you wake up." Jungkook fed her with lies again.

"But-"

Jungkook suddenly held Lisa's shoulders, "Look, why don't you just go fix yourself in the bed and I'll buy you your favorite chocomilk to get you a good night sleep."

Lisa looked at Jungkook, thinking, "Really?"

Jungkook smiled at him, "I'd buy you anything. Now go to bed. I'll be back."

Lisa obediently nodded and gave Jungkook a warm smile before fixing herself to bed. Jungkooknwas about to leave when a sudden cold, chilly atmosphere walked passed him as if there was an actual person walking passed him.

He had goosebumps all over his body that he froze on his spot.

"What the hell..." He uttered to himself.

He looked back at Lisa who is still giving him the most genuine smile. Her smiles made him forget about what just happened and finally left the premises to grant Lisa her small hapiness.

Atleast, Jungkook felt like he needed to do it to get Taehyung off of Lisa's mind.

But little did he know, that was the biggest mistake of his life.

After minutes passed after Jungkook left, a knock came by the door. It was rather an aggressive knock than the normal ones.

Lisa heard the knock, which gave her all the rights to feel scared all over again. She couldn't move a single muscle because she's too scared to do so.

Her breathing was uneven and she couldn't seem to stabilize her movement.

"Jungkook, where are you?" She cried out to herself in a low voice.

The knocking wont stop and it's starting make Lisa lose her sanity. The knocking turned into banging when Lisa didn't choose to welcome whoever is behind that door.

She shut her eyes close and wrapped herself inside her blanket, praying to whoever hears her from above to stop the person, or whatever it was, knocking on the door.

"Stop... Please." Lisa cried out.

As if it heard her, the banging stopped.

Lisa noticed it too and slowly peeked through her blanket to check if someone went it.

She wanted to stay on her bed and in her room and just wait for Jungkook. But her curiosity is starting to kill her.

Her stubborness took over.

She slowly stood up from her bed, very very careful not to make unnecessary sounds. She opened her door and peeked through it, only to find the living room empty and seemed safe.

She went out of her room and her eyes immediately went to their entrance door.

The cold eerie feeling is starting to spread in the living room the more she take a step closer to the door.

But she finally made it to the door and held the door knob. She pushed her left ear on the door to hear if someone is outside.

Lisa's eyes widened when she heard loud panting of a manly voice. It was like a growl but in deep breathing phase.

"W-Who's there?!" She managed to asked.

But the person didn't respond. It continued to pant and catching its breath like it was badly injured or extremely exhausted.

Lisa felt scared but despite it, the uneven breathing of the person made her have a bit of pity.

Which caused her to finally twist the door knob and opened the door...

Only to find a very familiar face standing weak and pale.

"Taehyung!" Lisa's eyes widened.

She was about to engulf him in a hug but he lost his balance. Luckily, Lisa caught him by her arms. His weight was too much for Lisa to carry so they both ended up sitting on the floor, with Taehyung, half consciously leaning on Lisa's upper body.

"Taehyung. Taehyung, are you okay?!" Lisa worriedly asked the guy and cupped his face.

But Taehyung looked too exhausted and pale. He's soaking wet too and the corners of his eyes got darker.

"Taehyung, what happened?!" Lisa worriedly asked again. But she couldn't get an answer.

Instead, she stood up and helped Taehyung, walking towards the couch where he can rest. Lisa stood up and got a towel, wrapping it around Taehyung.

"Where have you been?! I thought you were gone!" Lisa hugged him.

All Taehyung could do was stare at his feet and wear his unusual blank face. Lisa noticed the oddness on Taehyung so she pulled away from the hug and looked at Taehyung with worry.

"Tae-"

She was cut off when her phone suddenly rang.

She immediately took it from her pocket and checked the caller ID. A smile crept up her lips upon seeing who was calling her.

Jennie Unnie
calling...

"Unnie!" Lisa excitedly answered the call.

But the next thing she heard, almost stopped her from breathing and froze her on her spot like a statue.

Her whole being crashing down and her surroundings darkened.

"Lisa, we found Taehyung in his apartment! He's with us now!"
