“Who is this Ken, Jimin?” Jungkook asked, his eyes affixed on the name written in corner of letter. He rolled the paper over and saw no other information of  any sort.

“He’s Seokjin’s maternal cousin.” answered Jimin and he caught back Jungkook’s gaze who couldn’t put any of this letter man’s quite random characteristics for he never met him but reading this letter, it showed he was good close to Kim Seokjin.

“Do you know him?” the painter asked.

“Yes, we met on brother’s wedding since then never saw him. He was a lively and warm lad. Very close to our Seokjin.”
     “Ohh, where does he live?”

“I don’t know much of him but before marriage, he used to live with Seokjin, and after that he went back to his town that I don’t know of.” Jimin yawned and laid his head on the bed and half sitting on chair. “Why are you asking of him so much? And before that, why did he write such letter to my brother? That letter we found in the garden—if it is written by Ken then what is the cause of adressing my brother as Taetae. He was never suppose to know and say that name.” Jimin sighed.

“Maybe he heard it from Seokjin’s mouth?”

“Seokjin never says this name in front of anyone, not even us only when he’s alone with Taehyung. I don’t know if he did know about this.” 

And suddenly, “If he is trying to harass us!” Jimin snapped. “Seokjin’s family held a bitter face to us when their son committed this vile. They couldn’t bring themselves to accept their son’s profane act and blamed us for if we caused him any unwanted atmosphere here. I swear if they are on any idea of bullying us!” his eyes raged.

“Jimin-ah!” Jungkook whined at the loud voice used by Jimin. “Hush! Why they would do such? They lost their son, I don’t think they would do such.”

Jimin tamed too. “Yeah maybe. Even I don’t think of them behind this. Though they looked upset with us after death of our Seokjin but they are kind and forgiving people, honestly.” he shook his head denying his own earlier accusation.

“Then these handwritings matching and written by Ken—how will we put this all?” Jimin asked.

“Maybe it’s a coincidence. Maybe they are written by two different people.” Jungkook shrugged his shoulders.

“Let’s get a handwriting expert!” Jimin stated.

“I don’t know anybody who is a handwriting expert.”

“I know a pastor, who part time works for laws. It’s his speciality. We can go to him, he knows my brother very well, well whole towns knows on my brother for good, he is very kind... and shall help” Jungkook yawned at jimin’s words. “So yeah let’s go to him, morrow.”

“Okay morrow then, good night for now.” Jimin exited out for his own room.

“They are the same.” the pastor now the handwriting expert stated, his eyes confidence on his words. Jimin stared at Jeon who opened his mouth.

“You sure?”

Pastor long stared at young new man. “More than sure. The letter with no name written is being little anxious scribbles but that didn’t puzzle me for for being sure these both are written through same hands.

But the thing is...” pastor kept his magnifying glass aside. “What is the matter? You are Taehyung’s brother right?” he looked at Jimin, resting the magnifying glass on his chin.

“Yes I am his brother and nothing happened of any serious sort just my friend you see here beside me got this letter from his friend, which he had to confirm before taking it seriously.” he said. Pastor looked at Jungkook who agreed on lie nodding his head.
