Taehyung tried to swallow the lump in his throat, "What are you talking about?"

Namjoon smirked, glad to finally have the younger's attention. "Ask your uncle... or even your own father, for that matter. He's the one who's lied to you this whole time."

Taehyung stared at the older with wide eyes, not knowing what to say. He wanted to ask so many questions, but didn't know where to start.

"Tell me what you mean!" Taehyung raised his voice, catching the attention of some of the people around them.

Namjoon looked around before leaning closer to the younger, "Don't be naive. You know who you really need to ask."

With that the older walked off, leaving a paralyzed Taehyung with only his confused thoughts.

He needed a breath of fresh air before he ended up finding his father and going off on him with a bunch of questions. Taehyung knew this wasn't the time or place he wanted to question his father.

He walked outside and saw Jungkook with Yoongi and Jimin.

Poor Jungkook is third wheeling.

Taehyung started to walk over to them, but decided he wanted a little more time to himself to control his thoughts, which were all over the place.

Not long after, Taehyung caught sight of Yoongi and Jungkook walking towards him out of the corner of his eye.

"Mr. Taehyung, your father just said we're about to leave." As Yoongi said that, Taehyung saw his father and uncle exit the building along with a very bored looking gold digger.

Jungkook couldn't make his eyes shift away from his master, who looked uncomfortable at the sight of his father.

As soon as Mr. Kim, his brother, and Jennie finally made it to them, Taehyung spoke up.

"Everyone listen! I will be riding back with my father and uncle. The gold- Jennie will ride with Yoongi and Jungkook."

Taehyung's uncle looked like he thought the idea was absurd, "Why should my girlfriend have to ride with them?"

"Because I have a few questions for you two," Taehyung pointed between him and his father.

The determination in Taehyung's eyes must've shut his uncle up because he didn't argue any further.

Jennie, as Taehyung decided to call her from now on to prevent ever accidentally calling her by her nickname, was more than willing to ride in a car with Jungkook.

"Jungkook sit in the back with me!" She exclaimed as Jungkook tried to escape but she had already pulled him into the back seat.

Taehyung clenched his fists at the sight but decided it couldn't be helped since he had other important things to worry about.

He lead the way to their car with his father and uncle trailing behind.

Quickly getting into the passenger seat, he ignored his uncle's glare as the older proceeded to sit in the back.

Once Mr. Kim had gotten around to his side and sat down, Taehyung was ready to get straight to the point.

"Was mom's car accident not an accident at all?"

Mr. Kim and his brother shared an uneasy look, "Why would you ask such a thing, son?"

"I talked with someone earlier who tipped me off. Now, do not play with me. I want to know the truth." Taehyung stated clearly, wanting the truth and nothing but the truth.

Mr. Kim sighed, "I guess it can't be helped—"

"What are you talking about? Are you really going to tell him?" Taehyung's uncle cut him off with a look of disbelief.

"Brother, he deserves to know. Now shut up so I can tell him," He sighed, rubbing his temples. "No. It wasn't an accident. Her death was planned."

"But not by you?!" Taehyung gasped, subconsciously scooting farther away from his father.

Mr. Kim looked at his son like he was crazy and maybe a little stupid. "Of course not by me, what the hell, son?"

"Sorry, just had to make sure." Taehyung visibly relaxed, reprimanding himself for even considering it.

"Back then we had gained some enemies because of the business—"

"Do you know who did it?" Taehyung interrupted, sitting up straighter in his seat.
(because you know, good posture and all that shit.)

"Yes..." Mr. Kim trailed off, looking anywhere but at his son.

"Well, who?"
