Kim Seokjin

"Yes Namjoon, I'm trying my best to help all of you too especially Taehyung but I can't just do it alone okay? All of your cases are too big to hide and I don't have enough power-"

"Sir, the package has arrived.", I looked behind to see my staff and nodded. I turned back to my proper position, sitting infront of this beautiful mirror that shows my perfection.

"Still Jin, if you can do anything about it please do it fast. We are all suffering and you are our only hope." I sighed at how desperate Namjoon's voice is.

"Alright I'll try my best", I hung up the call and put my phone on my glass table. I turned ny swivel chair around and opened the television to see the news.

"There's a lot of cases about missing people these days. The police officers who are investigating the case still has no lead about the suspect. It is still unknown if they are still alive or not but we sure do hope it's not the latter. Private investigators have taken some action too about this case. It has been a great trivial case these days and became one of our top priority cases not just because of the huge number of the missing people but also because of the people's curiousity and support to find the missing persons. Han Yi An reporting, Good Day!"

"It's a bittersweet news huh, people missing, people supporting, just how sweet people can get? They are so sweet..." , I said with a smile... "so hypocrite.", people can always say something about certain things but they also do it. They will all turn their backs on you like how they talkshit about people who turned their backs on them. They will comfort you, befriend you, do somethings with you but in the end, when they get what they want, when they have some power, they will just turn like someone they hated. People are so hypocrite. People are so fake. That's why I just laugh out loud when I see people. I just fucking hate them.

"You are now an old one Jin, sorry I took your position." Jari, Kim Jari. We were highschool friends. No, more like, we were 7th to 8th grade friends. I was the class president during the 7th grade and like the usual class officers, the whole class wanted to befriend me. I always had someone with me because people liked me for being rich and a good leader. But one day, Kim Jari approached me. Kim Jari is a shy rich kid student, she's always alone.

"Hey Jin, can we... eat together?", I was hesitant at first but since she was a girl, I just nodded and accepted her. After our first meal together, I just felt so comfortable with her. She was so active and she even praised me so much for being the 'cool' class president. Of course I was so touched and glad because I had someone like her. Someone who made me realize that I've done a good job.

She and I became so close to each other. I even treated her more than any friends I got because she was somehow special. My heart was touched more when she said something that made my heart ache. Her friend just betrayed her and left her after getting what she wanted from her - money. It was devastating but we tried to be brighter. We just dissed, talk some shit about her friend and some people like her so we can somehow ease the pain. But I didn't know that she was just like her friend too.

"Our class president for this year is Kim Jari", I was shocked when she took my position and more than that, my other friends. I was so enraged, I was so mad at her.

"Why did you do that to me?", I threw her hand away. I dragged her to our rooftop because I wanted to talk to her.

"You are an old one now Jin, sorry I took your position.", I chuckled when she said that.

"You are so nice Jari, very nice. You used someone like me, befriended me and then took something from me. What a nice person you are, indeed a true friend.", I said to her while she's crossing her arms infront of me looking elsewhere with her bored look.

"Okay then, you took my friends away, you took my position, oh, I bet you'll even take my work from me. I'm so dumb to tell you about my campaign." I stepped in closer to her. "But it's okay Jari, I just hope you know what you just did.", I pressed her left shoulder hard and left her there.

"Just wait Jari, just wait"

Soon after that, before our Supreme Student Council opening for new officers, I took my problem out. I asked my bodyguard to take Kim Jari to my secret tree house when I was a kid. It was in the middle of an unknown forest and I liked to play there before. I went there after class and saw her sitting on the floor of my tree house. I slowly climbed my way up and kneeled to her.

"Hey Jari, nice seeing you again. Though you can't see me because of the blindfold, and you can't talk because of the cover, it's still nice seeing you." I slowly removed her blindfold and held it in my hands.

"You are so witty Jari, but you can't outwit the devil, you little demon.", I chuckled and soon laughed maniacally. See you in hell sweetie. You just made me lose my shit during the past days so I want you to lose your life too.

I guided her to stand with brute force and placed her on the edge of this tall tree house filled with hard soil and broken branches below.

"You hated someone like your friend but also did the same... hypocrite", I whispered to her before pressing her shoulder. She was so shocked and it made her fall off the tree house.

She looked at me in the eye as she falls down. I watched her drop flat on the ground until blood comes off the back of her head.

"I'm sorry, but snakes like you aren't allowed in my life", soon after I watched her die, my phone rung. I picked it up without even looking who was calling.

"Hey Seokjin, where are you? It's getting late. Anyways, you wanted to manage one of our restaurant right? I have a job for you." Job? What kind of job is it? "Some inventors will take a look at one of our restaurants and taste some of our finest dishes. I want you to look after that and get them, if you do it right, I'll give you the restaurant. Okay?", I smiled ear to ear, this is a dream come true.

"Yes father, I'll take good care of it.", I was about to hung up the call when he spoke again.

"Oh by the way, we have to find tasty meat to present to them. Find the tastiest one okay?"

Meat?

"...consuming cooked human flesh is no more dangerous than eating the cooked flesh of other animals. The same goes for the majority of the human body; the health implications are similar to that of eating any large omnivore..."

I also heard someone said human meat is tastier...

I looked back at the dead body below me and smirked.

...

"Hmmm, this dish is very delicious Mr Kim. It is the best from what we've tasted so far. If this continues, people would surely buy in here and would cause us great profit.", this middle aged man said to me while his accompany just agrees with him while nodding his head.

"Does this mean you'll invest on us Mr Lim?", I asked while looking at him eye to eye.

"You know you're too young to be in this kind of discussion but I like you. Alright, we'll sign the contract in your father's office next tuesday." We all stood up and I shaked his hand. Great. Just great. Sometimes, snakes can have a value.

"Mr Kim, the car is ready. It's almost time so we should get going.", I nodded at my personal secretary and stood up off my chair. I fixed my coat, looked at the mirror and smiled.

...

The scenery is as usual unique and refreshing. People with high status wants to have their own factory nearby or somewhere hidden and the latter is what I've done. We are passing by some cows and the smell of the soil and trees have been reeking for a several minutes already. It only means that we are almost there.

A few more minutes later, I finally saw a big barn. It looks like an ordinary barn from the outside, but when you see the inside, you won't know what to feel. I stepped out of my car and fixed my coat once again before walking towards the door at the back. No one aside from me and my personal secretary can go in here, well, of course except for the people who works for me. In addition, you have to have a strong stomach because if not, good luck.

"So what's the condition of our meat?", I asked my secretary as I walk towards the main factory where they process the meat.

"They are all good sir, plus, the ones we've been hunting are those who have no family or are convicted to death in prison.", my secretary tries to walk the same pace as me.

"Good, we don't want anyone to suspect us.", after a few more step, I opened the main door and saw how busy they are.

I walked around it and see fresh meats. It is properly organized, the whole meat section is in the front, the chopped parts that are divided neatly station is in the middle while the ready to go meat section is on the last. I smiled as I see the fresh meat lying and hanging.

"People don't even know what they are eating. Of course, the meat I found out is extremely confidential and we only address them as fresh meat. We stopped people and press from asking any further questions about it and that's how we maintained our high class cuisine.", I stated happily to my secretary as I smile widely looking over my sweet great factory.

"Yes sir, we are extremely careful with our products too and this should go well for a very long time-", a sudden loud knock on the door stopped us all from doing what we are doing. I slowly walked towards the door and softly turned the knob. My heart's beating fast I don't even know why, this sudden interruption has gotten into my nerves. Once I opened it, I saw police officers, some reporters and other farmers here. What the fuck is going on? How??

"Mr Kim Seokjin, we have a warrant to search your factory which was accused of using human meat."

"W-what? Who told you that?" He disregard me and came in. I was too shocked that I haven't gotten the chance to stop more people from entering and from getting my hands a handcuff.

Flashing lights, too much noise and screams are ovelapping the thoughts on my mind.

"Mr Kim, how did you do this?"

"Mr Kim, did you use human meat to all of your dishes?"

"Mr Kim, why did you use human meat?"

Too much questions, too much is happening around me. I am so shocked.. I looked at my factory and everything is a mess. My secretary is handcuffed like me and is being taken to the police car. They guided me in as well as my secretary and I was only taken back to reality when I felt a buzz in my pocket. I picked up my phone and saw a text message.

"Because you dug my deathbed, I dug yours too..."

What? What the hell is this? I tried to disregard it and tried to dial my father's number when it suddenly rang. An unknown number is calling me. I ended it but it rang again and again. I answered it in frustration.

"What the hell are you doing?!"

I will be here

When you think you're all alone

Seeping through the cracks

I'm the poison in your bones

My love is your disease

I won't let it set you free

Til I break you"

"Who-"

"I tried to be the lover to your nightmare

Look what you made of me

Now I'm a heavy burden that you can't bear

Look what you made of me

Look what you made of me

I'll make you see"

"W-what? H-how?"

"You'll never know what hit you

Won't see me closing in

I'm gonna make you suffer

This hell you put me in

I'm underneath your skin

The devil within"

"Jimin?!"
