Epilogue: No more Dream

Jinjinjara: If I finish the practice early, I might be able to come tomorrow. If not

Jinjinjara: ㅠㅠ

Y/n: Don't worry too much. If you can come, then you can come. If not, there's always next time. Don't force yourself

Jinjinjara: Chinggu-ya ㅠㅠ

Jinjinjara: But everyone else is coming

Jinjinjara: Even namjoon's done

Y/n: Everyone? Dunno, haven't heard from Yoongi. He's not replying in the group either

Jinjinjara: probably holed up in his studio again

Jinjinjara: It's almost comeback season so he practically lives there now

Y/n: Then is it okay to still hang like this? Aren't you super busy?

Jinjinjara: It's an excuse to have fun

Jinjinjara: It's nice to take a break once in a while

Jinjinjara: I wanna take a break tooooo ㅠㅠ

.

I laugh quietly, shaking my head as I stare at my phone screen. Even though the study café I am currently at is almost baren of people, it feels awkward to be producing any noise higher than fifty decibels at a place like it. I slowly sip my sickly-sweet tea infusion.

Since the big birthday bash, or whatever that was, and the dinner that followed, we all exchanged contact info and now officially have a group chat over at Instagram. We don't talk there every day, with all of us being various levels of busy, but when we do, the group chat gets flooded with memes and strange existential questions that tumblr would be proud to adopt, such as, the other day, Namjoon suddenly sent a long message saying:

Why are human, 'human kind' in english? Is it kind as in a kind of fruit? Or is it a hint that we are in core intrinsically kind but are corrupted by society? Also, why is there 'mankind' but no 'womankind' in the dictionary? Who decides that man should represents all of human?

There were various reactions, one being a keyboard smash from Jimin at the sudden turn of the conversation when previously, we were talking about food recommendation. It went mostly ignored, however, until Yoongi replied. "I heard that until 1946, there were more female than male."

Koalajun: I'm pretty sure the word 'mankind' is invented before the 1946. Isn't that even stranger?

.

Then food talk forgotten, everything shifted to that topic.

.

Min Yoongi: It can't be from before the invention of the wheel, can it?"

Koalajun: That's like when a western character in some movies refers to Asians as 'exotic' even though almost 60% of the world population is Asian. So, we're actually the common one."

Min Yoongi: Ah, that's right. We're the mainstream.

Mini_park: What are you guys doing?

Y/n: I have no idea

BunnySeagull: When was the wheel invented?

Y/n: Google say 4 entury BC

Y/n: *Century

Jinjinjara: They've been around for that long?

.

That conversation sadly didn't last all that long since Tae got too hungry to ignore the previous interruption in the food discussion.
