Kim Taehyung : 19 Years Old

"I think this suits you well" Jimin who is with Taehyung looking for something to wear for the upcoming graduation ball. Though, Taehyung asked for Jimin's help since Jisoo is his date for that night. He still couldn't get off his mind that his question hasn't been answered.

"Who are you?"

That question is stuck in his mind. That even Jimin couldn't think of an answer but only help him look for it.

"Hey, you listening?" Jimin seem to notice how Taehyung was spacing out. Until then, when Taehyung realized that Jimin was calling him. He immediately answered.

The older one could only sighed and said

"Still thinking about who that little girl was" Jimin started as Tae nodded.

"No matter how hard I tried I couldn't find any answer" frustration can only lead Taehyung dumb.

"C'mon. Let's look for a suit on the next day. You need to freshen up. I'll help you" Jimin took Taehyung to a place where they usually spent quality time together.

"I think this help a little bit" Tae bitterly smiled.

"You know what. I think the only thing that can help you find that girl...." Jimin paused

"Is what Hyung?" Taehyung asked. Jimin turned his head to the younger one.

"Is through your brother" Jimin answered.

"What? I can't do that" Tae said.

"Just listen" Jimin said. Jimin knew the story of Taehyung's brother Soo-Hyun, all of them ever since Taehyung was a kid Jimin is always been his best friend. And he knew basically everything.

"You told me, that Soo-Hyun Hyung wants you to take care of that little girl on the frame. Don't you think it's the best time for you to reveal something about your brother? Coz what if that girl is looking for your brother too. But she couldn't unless you help her" Jimin said. Taehyung went for a deep thought.

"I don't know Hyung. Would Dad like this idea?" Taehyung asked

"I don't know. But it's what Soo-Hyun Hyung would've wanted" Jimin answered. And he was right.

"If Soo- Hyun want you to look for her. He would also want you to help her look for him. As far as I'm concerned, the girl is still not aware that Soo-Hyun is already dead. Don't you think" Jimin said and smiled.

"Alright Hyung. Shopping for graduation ball can wait" Taehyung started

"Where are you going?" Jimin asked

"It's WE. We are going to visit Soo Hyun today" Taehyung answered as Jimin smiled and followed Taehyung.

"Welcome Mr. Kim and Mr. Park" the woman from the counter has greeted them with a warm smile. She knew that whenever Taehyung calls and visit his brother. The whole place must be close. And she never leaves the chapel.

She often sees Taehyung with Jimin along so she has gotten used to them.

"Marie has dad visited Soo-Hyun recently?" he asked

"Yes he did, Mr. Kim the other day" she answered as Tae nodded. As he walk away heading to her brother's shelter.

Soo-Hyun's ashes was located somewhere safe and secured. A room with no one else but only his. For once, Taehyung felt that his brother was only inside this room with only himself.

He gave respect as Jimin did the same before standing up. Taehyung's hand went inside his pocket and said.

"I have face something tough recently, Hyung." Taehyung's eyes were straight looking to his brother's ash jar.

"First, Sam cheated on me, and dated me for money. Second, I got beaten by bullies. Third, I've been settled to marry someone whom I just met. And she wasn't happy of course who would be. Fourth, I'm stuck of something you have given years ago" Jimin was silently listening but feeling sad for what Taehyung has been facing recently. And he knew it was too much for a boy like Taehyung facing it.

"Everyone has been asking where my brother is through this years. And I wasn't able to answer their questions up until now. I wanted to hide it so that you won't be the topic, but seems like I've been selfish brother. Without thinking about that girl you mentioned before you left. I don't know how to look for her, but Jimin said" he stopped and look at Jimin as the older one raised his head to Taehyung.

"That only you can help me find her. By raising the concern of your where about" he continued

"So is it okay. To announce where you are through all this years?" he asked. He waited for a sign. Until he saw some flyer that got stuck on the mini-window.

YES. It was a newspaper with a cover page enlarging the word 'YES'. And it is the sign he was asking for.

"Are you sure about this son?" his dad asked

"It's the only way for me to fulfill the promise I made for Soo-Hyung. I'll deal with the clue you left after" Taehyung said

"What clue?" his dad asked

"The Book Mom wrote" Taehyung answered

"Oh" is all his dad could say. As Taehyung went upstairs he washed himself. And after that he dried his hair after dressing himself a pajama's. Right when his eyes landed on the picture frame he found not long ago. The picture he found from above.

He took that frame and sat on his chair. Thinking that there might've been a clue inside. As soon as he opened that frame he found only one thing.

"A key?"
