EXPLANATION

Hello everyone!

First of all, thank you sooo much for all the precious reads, votes and comments!! Each one of them are appreciated and mean a lot to me. I'm so grateful for the support 💜

Now that the story has finally ended,
(even though it had somewhat bittersweet ending but I think it was pretty satisfactory, right? But I'll come to that later.)
What I wanted to say is, I know there must be a lot of unanswered questions and/or confusions considering the format and theme. So I decided to make this detailed explanation chapter to clear out everything :D

===================

TIME SETTING

1. Prologue 

I guess it is pretty clear, the prologue is set in the time when Yoongi and Jimin were still in elementary school. It is a significant memory for them, since it was the last time they saw each other as little kids before Yoongi moved to Daegu.

2. Chapters 1-21

This is set in the time when they are in middle school. Yoongi is still in Daegu and Jimin is soon transferring to Jeju island. That's why he wanted to meet up with Yoongi one last time.
Here, in every chapter Jimin is slowly reading parts of the final letter Yoongi sent to him and reminisces of their past days. - Their growing up together, special moments as well as how he was doing now.

Lines in this font 
consist of Yoongi's letter which Jimin is reading. That's why it starts with 'Dear Park Jimin' is chapter 1 and ends with 'From - Min Yoongi' in chapter 21. It's the last ever letter exchanged between them that was sent as a reply to a letter Jimin had sent few days back (telling about his transfer and desire to meet up).

Meanwhile lines in this font
can basically be considered Jimin's thoughts of memories which he is reminiscing as he reads the letter.

And lines in this font
I used them in two of the chapters I think. They indicate Jimin's memories about few random parts of Yoongi's past letters he had sent to him over the years.

3. Chapters 22-30

They take place on a prominent event. The particular day when Jimin was going to finally meet Yoongi in Daegu.  Jimin's transferring to Jeju also happens to be on that day, just few hours ahead of his schedule with Yoongi. The narrative is quite clear and in accordance here so I don't think any explanation is needed.

4. Chapters 31-45

These are set in their highschool days.
This was a quite interesting change in pov as most of the story is from Jimin's perspective.

This font was used
because its now Taehyung's point of view, a native Jeju boy who fell for Jimin in middle school after his moving to that island. Taehyung has a beautiful but unrequited love for Jimin which he tries to deal with over the chapters along with glimpses of his own life.
