Missing Fall-se

1-8

Jeongguk's consciousness was immediately brought back to reality as his dream was distracted by the noise of his phone ringing on the cabinet beside his bed in Seokjin's house. As he lazily extended his arm to reach the phone, he answered the call without giving a glance at who called him in the middle of his sleep.

He stayed quiet as he placed the phone near his ear when he heard sobs and heavy breaths on the other line, which made his body quickly respond. He got up from the bed, and his mind was no longer drowsy.

When he took a gaze on his phone, the feeling he felt at that moment was fighting between nervousness and ease. Those cries, shaky voice, and heavy breaths that had been ringing in his ears made him unable to create a sound from his mouth for seconds.

"Noona?" he felt dumb as that was the first word that came out, but at the same time, it calmed him down a bit as he slowly had the voice to talk to his Noona. She was missing for not so long, and it would surprise the young man if this is what would welcome him from his Noona.

"Noona, where are you? Are you okay? Noona? Noona! Noona--" as soon as the call got cut off, Jeongguk's thoughts had gone through despair, and couldn't stop thinking about any negative situation that his Noona might be encountering at this hour.

Hands trembling while holding the phone, Jeongguk pressed Soogun's name in his contact but only to receive a ringing line.

The sound of the door being opened was heard behind him, and a man with wide shoulders entered the room. "What happened? Why are you shouting, Jeongguk-ah?"

As Jeongguk's back was facing the eldest, he turned around meeting the eyes of his hyung with those tears escaping from his eyes. Both men stared at each other, and Jin noticed his phone in his phone. He moved his feet closer to him without breaking the stare of the teary eyes of his youngest.

"What happened?" Jin tried to tone down his voice to calm Jeongguk.

As much as he wanted to grab his phone and find out what made him react like this, Seokjin gave him a time, and he wanted to hear everything from him.

"Noona called me... she sounded like in need of help," Jeongguk said in between those little sobs.

"Can I have your phone?" Jin asked and the youngest nodded in response without hesitation. As he opened his phone and the screen directly flashed the names of his recent calls.

Soogun's name on top, Jin pressed it and brought the phone in his hand to his ear. Just as Jeongguk earlier, Seokjin received a ringing line.

"Hyung, we have to find her."

Jin looked back at Jeongguk, and those eyes showed the desperation to find his Noona and bring her back safe and sound. The eldest also wanted that, they have known Soogun for years already, and their friendship is more like a family.

As the eldest of the group, he wants nothing but the safety of his friends. Seokjin thought one's problem shouldn't be faced alone.

At first, he misunderstood Jeongguk as Seokjin thought the woman was having mental problems and needed someone to be there for her as they should. But when he observed the actions of the youngest and how those hands were trembling in fear, it was worse than he thought.

"Let's bring that information to the police."

Just when Seokjin stepped out of the room, the door of the other room also opened and revealed Hoseok stepping out of the room, "Are you okay, Jeongguk?"
