34 : Bangtan's baby.

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

It was the evening of their last day in Malta.

Like for the past season, they had to write letters, but this time it was to themselves, regardless of the time in their lives.

Maya sat in the living room with the others, squished between Hoseok and Taehyung, her head resting on the older male's shoulder.

"What should I even write ?" She mumbled, looking straight ahead. "I wrote 'Hey me' and it stops there."

The others chuckled.

"Can I take a peek ?" She asked Jimin, leaning as he sat on the floor.

"To copy ?" He answered, turning around.

".. Probably."

"Im Maya-ssi you can't do that." Seokjin said with a chuckle of disbelief.

"So first of all you didn't have to use my governmental name Oppa." She answered with a pout, sitting back on the couch.

The oldest didn't answer, focusing on his task.

Maya spaced out, staring at the ceiling as the sound of phone typing filled the room.

"May-ssi you wrote a letter on Bon Voyage season two." The staff encouraged her.

"Yeah and I thought it was the last time I'd have to.." She answered, making everyone in the room chuckle at how cute her despair sounded. "This is hard, what can I say to myself ?"

Namjoon came out of the bedroom, chuckling as well.

"You guys are so noisy, you're supposed to be writing." He said, crashing on the couch.

"Well if it's easy for you to write good for you literature boy." Maya responded in a sarcastic tone.

"What have you written so far ?" He asked, leaning forward to see her better behind Taehyung's figure.

She cleared her throat, looking at her phone.

"'Hey me', end of quote."

He laughed in disbelief as she sighed again, putting her arms around Hoseok's waist, her head on his chest as she curled on his lap.

The male was unbothered, continuing to type as Maya closed her eyes.

"Maya-yah you're not even trying.." Jimin poked her thigh with his pencil, her flesh covered by the sweatpants she wore to sleep. "There has to be something you want to say."

Maya was emotionally spent, no matter how at the end, her day got better.

She couldn't wish herself happiness because she wasn't sure she deserved it, she couldn't wish herself health because mentally it wasn't there and there were many things she wasn't brave enough to express on paper.

"I'm not being whiny, I genuinely don't know what to say." She answered with a sigh.

She saw everyone around her working hard, yet she had no motivation to do the same.

Again, what could she say ?

At the end, she ended up passing out on Hoseok's chest. Nobody really noticed since she had her eyes closed all along, until everyone finished their letters and had to present the gift to themselves.

She sleepily went to pick what she chose, coming back to the living room with her head on Namjoon's shoulder.

"Cutie Noona.." Jungkook said, pinching her cheek.

She didn't react, staring at the floor in front of her silently as she listened to Hoseok and Namjoon talk about their picks.

"May !" Namjoon said in an enthusiastic tone, patting her lap to wake her up.

She bent down to pick her package from the floor.

"So I picked this liquor it's pomegrenate.. I like pomegrenate."

There was a silence for a moment as words came out of her head, her brain still asleep.

The other members internally fangirled at how cute she looked, her mouth agape as she thought, her eyes sleepy and cloudy.

".. Yeah that's about it, I like pomegrenate and.. It's from Malta and.. I think it'd look good on the kitchen counter, since I don't really drink." She said, nodding with her own statement.

Namjoon gave her a head pat as she leaned forward again to put it back on the floor, listening to the others once again.

Once they were all done, the staff gave them a letter, intriguing the members.

"Mayaring do the reading, come on." Seokjin passed it to her, trying to get her out of her passive state.

She took a deep breath, opening it.

"Give me a minute please it's english, I feel dizzy." She said, making the members laugh at the way she said it so seriously.

"Take your time it's okay." Namjoon said, patting her thigh before squeezing it, his eyes lightly widening as he noticed how muscular it got.

When they first met back in 2009, she did had some muscle since she was dancing a lot, but nothing compared to today.

After all, she was only thirteen.

"So.. Dear BTS, you are invited to a s-speshwal ?" She turned to Namjoon, panicked at the pronunciation.

"Special." He corrected with a small smile of pride.

"S-Special, is that it ?" He nodded in response. "Special dinner event. Please dress according to this special occasion, dress to impress on this night.. I didn't understand anything of what I just read."

The members chuckled as Namjoon translated for her, making her groan.

"I'm always dressing to impress, what else can I pull ?" She asked in a disbelief tone, making them laugh at her fake anger.

"Surprise us, we know you can." Taehyung said.

She stood up, stretching her arms above her head.

"I'll try my best.." She answered, a small moan of satisfaction escaping her lips as she pulled her arms down.

"May-ssi please finish the letter, even on your phone." The staff said softly, trying to not push her around too much.

The male was with her when she fought with Taehyung this morning, he didn't want to put salt on her wounds.

He was her assigned cameraman for every show, from Bon Voyage to Run BTS and even though he was really professional, he could notice she wasn't as bright as she was before.

She was tired, and it wasn't physical.

"Sure.. I'll go find something now."
