Jisoo's eyes slowly opened

Jisoo's eyes slowly opened. She was feeling heavy, lousy and the whole world spun around her. Adjusting her vision, she saw a white ceiling. Where was she? Heaven. They say when you are in a different setting, you think about where you are.

Jisoo on the other hand was thinking about chicken balls. 

As she fluttered her eyes fully open, last night's scene replayed in her head again, and for a second Jisoo would have believed that it was a dream but when she tried to move, she felt a stinging pain on her wrist. 

"This is not a dream," she muttered 

Probably her voice awakened the others, as she then heard the sound of her best friends. "Jisoo," Lisa's voice was the first one she heard. She turned her head, there stood her "nine" best friends. 

Jisoo whimpered as she slowly tried to get up, "slowly," Rose said as both she and Yoongi helped her from both sides. As Jisoo finally managed to sit, she looked around. It was a hospital. She is alive. 

She scanned the faces of the ten people who surrounded her but then her gaze struck upon Jin. He looked like he didn't sleep last night, one look at his face and you could tell he has been crying. 

The other eighth exchanged glances, a bit hesitant but then nodded. They quietly left, leaving the two alone. Jisoo smiled at their actions and then signaled him to sit.  He did. 

They had a brief looking into each other's eyes moment until Jin finally asked her, "How are you feeling?" She sighed. Depressed. Down. Happy. Relived, but then she gave an honest answer, "I am hurt but still happy that it's finally over," 

They looked at each other, smiling sadly at her response. Then their eyes did the talking as Jin understood what she wants to ask with that silence of hers. He told her, "Namjoon was going through sociopathy issues for more than three years. He was visiting a therapist. Right now he is in a hospital, receiving treatment," 

Jisoo felt a lump in her throat and she averted her gaze. A tear in the corner of her eye, great. We lost another friend. She looked at her bandaged wrist. The inner pain she was feeling was way more than this. 

Then suddenly she felt Jin pull her in a hug, a much-needed one. He hazily stroke her hair as she continued to replay that same scene in her head. It was finally over though. They stayed like that for five minutes before pulling away. 

The three years wait was finally over, something that could have happened 3 years back when their former best friend dared Jisoo to kiss him was now happening. The kiss wasn't full of lust or anything, it was filled with tenderness, it showed a connection that would last forever. Finally, their love story was complete. 3 years was a long time but this was the perfect way to seal it. 


4 WEEKS LATER


Soojin and Jimin sat on the lush green grass together on Friday evening. The weather was warm as if Spring had already started. The faded sounds of people talking accompanied by the noises made by children surrounded the whole place. It was finally peace now. 

No more threats, no more blackmail, no more xoxo. 

"What are you thinking?" she asked, noticing his gleamy smile. He looked at her affectionately,  tucking one of her hair strands behind her hair, "Just happy that now it's just me and you," 

'What movie dialogue is that?" she asked, noticing his cheesiness. "How did you even know it was from a movie?" He asked, surprised by her immediate guess. "Just like that," she answered


"Oh My Goodness, Jungkook, are you kidding me!?" Rose shouted as she held two tickets in her hand while he lied on the couch laughing at her reaction. 

"2 tickets to Park Bom's concert. I seriously cannot believe this," she said, dramatically, hugging his waist and muttering a sly thank you. "No problem," he said smiling at her cuteness. Everything was finally over. 

"I seriously love you so much," Rose said loudly, so loud that he had to cover his ears while laughing


"How much do you preheat it to?" Taehyung asked leaning on the counter, trying to set the oven correctly. Jennie who sat on the counter, holding a chef book in her hands, answered, "180 Celcius," 

"Jennie can I readout and you rather do this?" he asked, stretching and pleading with her as she shook her head, "No Taehyung, last time I was the one who made cupcakes, this time you bake," 

Taehyung whined but then got an idea. He sighed and started to continue his work and Jennie smiled in victory, but then he said, "Great, I will burn the cake happily today,"

Jennie immediately climbed down the counter and took an apron, "As I was saying, start reading, I will do it,"


Lisa and Hoseok walked on the shore of Han River, a silent walk filled with comfort, sympathy, and happiness. The city finally seemed normal and it finally had a "home" feeling to it. But something that still wasn't fine was Hoseok and his feelings. While all his friends were probably having wonderful dates in a French Restaurant, he was walking with Lisa and tagging her just as his friend. 

Hoseok was staring at their synced footsteps as they walked, his head down unlike most of the time. God knows what was churning through his head, as he kept walking and lost track that Lisa had stopped walking along. He was finally out of his little bubble when he heard her call out his name 

"Hoseok," 

He turned his head, immediately astonished at the sudden sound. She was smiling, widely. "Yeah?" he asked 

"When are you planning to confess?" 

His jaw dropped, she knows? His eyes widened at her sentence, is this really happening? She walked up to him and said those words which were enough for him to climb cloud 9 

"I think I like you too" 


"The food here is amazing," Soyeon said relishing the food as both she and Yoongi sat in an Italian restaurant. "This restaurant is really good," he said, nodding to her words taking a bite of his own food. 

"I can't believe we are now finally graduated," she said, smiling. Graduating this year seemed impossible but they finally are. "And I still can't believe that mess is over," he said, faintly smiling. She held his hand, and said, "It is, it's finally over," 

"I am still feeling dizzy," he said, chuckling at his own words. "Now shut up and enjoy the food. No matter how many times you say it, it's really over," she said, playfully hitting him.
