I performed in the large stadium with people cheering for me. After the performance, I went backstage, got changed into something bit more comfortable, and went out with my bodyguards and assistant. The place was crowded to have a look of me and I managed to get into my car through the little spaces left between the cameras pointing at me.

*time-skip*

The plane landed at Icheon International Airport, Seoul. All my life I've been waiting to come here. I always got excited whenever I thought about coming here but now when I looked out of the window I felt my heart being stabbed and the bright sunny sky suddenly seemed to darken as if the sun has been down for years.

I got out of the airport and thought about taking a bus as there was no need for a private car or bodyguards to keep me safe here because I am not much popular in Korea. I got on a bus and it was completely empty as it was about 4 in the morning.

I sat by a window and put my earphones on and played the playlist 'This is BTS'. Surprisingly only emotional songs were playing that day which made the environment even more melancholic.

[JUNGKOOK'S POV]

I woke up from a bad dream and went to the kitchen to get some banana milk.
Why does it have to be like this? I'll go out and buy some....at least one store must be open.

I took my phone and my wallet and went out to buy my banana milk. No, I no longer need a mask and worry about people following me. It's so much more comfortable....so much that I kinda miss being uncomfortable.

All nearby stores were closed so I thought about going to a 24/7 open store that was quite far. I saw a bus coming. I got on and swiped my card and noticed that the bus was almost empty, only one person was there sitting while looking out of the window.

I walked up to her and sat on the empty seat beside her even though there were a lot of other seats empty. Even for a short moment, I wanted someone to be by my side even if it's a stranger.

It started raining. Suddenly I heard her singing Spring Day in a low and sad voice. I got shocked and looked at her. She was looking at a picture of me and my hyungs on her phone. It was us...the seven of us, together.

I got lost in the picture and suddenly I saw a drop of water fall on her phone screen.

"Excuse me....Are you crying?" I asked while making a big effort to speak the little English that I know.

"Why did they do that? Why?" She replied in Korean while sobbing.

I remained silent. I knew what she was talking about. She was one of those who thought we broke their trust. Again, my heart felt hollow, felt like it stopped.

"Why did they have to go separate ways like that?" She said which made me shocked. She wasn't one of them.

"Couldn't they rely on the few who purely loved them and trusted them? Few? There are so many who still love and trust them, still waiting for them to be back." I just stared at her while she spoke crying harder. I lost words.

"I hate them so much!! How could they leave us like that? What are we without them? I-It must have been hard for them..." she sobbed.

I was about to say something but got interrupted.

"Miss your stop is here! Please get off." Said the driver.

Before even I could ask her name she left.

There are people. Who still love and trust us, still waiting for us...patiently. They were here all along. This is the time I realized we were never alone and everything can be back again.
