"Leave him for now. He is not in a position to help you but I can." A masculine voice hinting derision chopped the thickness of the atmosphere, sending an far-fetched echo which resonated with questions.

"How is the Cupid's arrow supposed to take life?" Pari looked back, eyes boringly meeting the sparkling ones of the cupid, Seokjin. "For you red stands for love, stopped living in the myth or what?"

Namjoon lifted up his head, breathed out a huff, red eyes diverting from Jin to settle at the brown t-shirt of the goddess, dripping down at the black pair of jeans.

His teary eyes equipped with all his misery, all of it trailed down, spilling through the corner of his eyes.

Just a drop.

But...

It contained every clip, every memory that still haunts the supreme god of heavens.

Like a slipped out word from one's mouth, it was a cannonball fired from a cannon on its one way trip dripping down, out of the coverage area of the heavens.

It descended down in the levels of earth's atmosphere, just to reach a heart.

A person to curse or bestow the feeling of the supreme god. There must be one who will have to absorb the tear, until it doesn't find a heart, the person, the lone tear will pass through every material of earth.

It will go round and round, the gravitational force of the earth will keep on bouncing off the drop towards humans until a heart absorbs the emotions in the tear.

The phenomenon could bring anything, maybe something good, something great but also can be something terribly destructive and bad.

And these deities might not be able to avert a calamity. As they are so clueless about the whole emotion thingy.

Even Namjoon, he is sitting there with that pouty look watching the other two leave him alone as Seokjin demanded.

"You better not be wasting my time, Mr cupid." Jin smiles warm heartedly at the word of the goddess of the underworld.

She wasn't complimenting him, it feels that way to the god of love. "I will turn out to be more helpful than any other god in here."

"Believe me, Pari." Jin looked at her as he bowed, making a way for the goddess.

Pari bowed her head a little with respect, heels following the direction Jin gestured her to move in. It was a hall, away from the spell. This was a place where the two can show genuine emotions.

"You sound so confident." Pari's lips curved in amusement, cupid is willing to kill, this is not an everyday thing.

"I guess, I should be because I know something more than you do." Jin had this rush of excitement thinking about Yoongi's untold love for the goddess.

'I wish I could tell you this straightforwardly but you will not understand how much Yoongi does love his boss.' Jin suppressed his excitement thinking rightfully and waiting for the time to reveal everything.

"What do you know?" Pari asked Jin.

Jin scoffed as if he would tell her, then gave her a smug smile. Pari frowned, her nose and forehead crinkled.

"The real magic, love." Jin spoke up in pride, "The emotion you have never been through, I know that."

Pari rolled her eyes and looked back at the cupid. A window facing her back, giving Namjoon enough space to hide and listen.

"I forgot you're always overconfident."

"Thank you for wasting my time, I'll take my leave now." Pari added, irritated but not surprised. Rather looking down on her remembrance, how can she forget the nature of Jin.

"Call me overconfident but I'm not wrong."

"Whether about my looks, love or you." He took her words to his heart, "I know what you need. I have seen you grow up with me. I know what will help you find the only thing you are missing in this life."

It was their era to rule and be the god and goddess, they were not immortals but they were divine, blessed with a countless life yet not reaching eternity.

These deities grew up together as a kid, went through everything and achieved their own title, none of them was blessed with the title of God.

As kids they used to play together, learn and grow but everything had to end.

It becomes messier when one grows up, they have to be sensible enough. Heavy loads on their shoulders as they have to run through the twisted and puzzled life.

Pari and Jin were not so close in childhood but their presence was known by one another. And Jin had watched her running away from love ever since that incident.

This time he needed to jump in because it was the last wish of the angel, the god of love can at least do this in the name of it.

"Just do me a favor." Jin begged.

Namjoon heard him, puzzled but relaxed a little, he had controlled his emotions for the time being. In between the two men, Pari was finding everything so comical.

"Do you a favor? Wasn't you the one who offered and claimed to help me?" Pari snickered, shaking her head.

"Yes, but for that. You will have to do this favour." Pari looked at him, not believing that she forgot another important thing.

'Nothing comes for free.'

"What do you want me to do!?" She raised her voice, enough pissed to not tolerate anything at this point.

Jin heavily sigh, his shoulders down but head straight, giving his eyes a full view of the goddess's greeting teeth look.

'Don't take stress, Jin. You can deal with her.' Jin thought as breads of sweat formed on his forehead. 'Fighting!'

He fisted his hands in tiny, giving himself a boost. Pari thought of chuckling at his state but only an eye roll she could do.

"Fine. I'll kill him by myself. I don't need your help, about that favour. Help yourself." Pari had enough.

The goddess of underworld had no such power to take life, her duty asked her to be fair with the souls. She can judge and punish but only if the soul is at fault.

Was Yoongi at fault?

"No Pari. You can't kill him!" Jin retorted.

His hand on his chest, eyes wide open.

"He is a pure soul." The voice came out depressed. Slowly reached the still calm goddess but the word snached that state of serenity right away.

She became furious.

"That pure soul of yours kissed me without my consent!" She shouted loudly.

The action had an equal and opposite reaction. Jin was taken aback but he soon came up, reflecting the same tone of Pari, "and you let him!"

"You didn't push him away!" Jin voiced lower, heart sinking in uncertainty.

They both froze at the sight, heavy breaths and glossy eyes. Jealousy, hurt and pain rush in the sneaker's veins, Namjoon bang his head backwards to ease a little.

His head hit the wall, the pain was calming him. His head facing up the sky, dropping more of his content.

More liquid added in the tear of the supreme god. Which revolves in the atmosphere of earth in hunt of that one heart.

The tear passed through rocks, passed through mountains. Even passed through human bodies but never touched a heart, yet. The phenomenon was yet to come.
