"Really? Oh, even Hosook is gone. What good is a vacation if I don't have my friends. It's nonsense."

"At least you have a vacation."

"Now it'll be a quiet vacation in the studio recording Covers with Yoongi."

"Sounds good to me."

"I wanted you to help me drag him out of there, not lock me up too. Anyway...have a good one. Don't overdo it."

"Sure, sure. I'll call you back Jimin."

Jimin hangs up the call and stares at the stunning Seoul. No time seems to pass. Graduating, working, traveling, in short, nothing to bother her! She is happy and satisfied with her life. The accumulated achievements. Constantly being called to be a choreographer, to be an actress in music videos or supporting roles in series; a dancer in the same; advertising brands on social media She has many achievements and is proud of them!

She is glad she has been able to continue and that, in doing so, this where she is. Yawn and check out her social media for a while. She notices a comment on the last post she made. Being a photo with rapper Jessi.

JJK_Bunny: no one can resist honey huh.

Congrats on meeting another singer you like!

Go into the profile and in theory there's no one there. I mean, all the pictures are drawings of different style, some made tattoo; a beautiful view of Seoul and finally he comes to two vital ones: a Doberman dog looking out the window and wasted leaves where there is a drawing of himself. Jimin furrows her eyebrows Does Jeonggoo even use Instagram? Barely remembered before.

Jimin checks old posts and there's nothing on any of them; half of this notifications are of her giving heart to every photo in these thirty hours I take to check. Finally a private chat message arrives.

JJK_Bunny: Can we meet?

"Good afternoon."

Jimin takes a seat at the crowded coffee table. Removes her yellow sunglasses, places her bag on the seat and orders a coffee and cake from the waitress. Finally, she removes her mouth cover and fixes her bleached, pink streaked hair. In front of her is Jeonggoo who has not really changed in one aspect: staring at Jimin like a fool with nothing on her mind. Jimin analyzes her briefly. She has tattoos on her hand, her whole arm; lace bra, harness, a black see-through blouse revealing it. Her face looks less round and eyes less big, but it would be impossible not to recognize her. Even with the undercut, the waves, the green locks; the red lipstick. Jimin's order arrives and still nothing is said.

"I see you finally came to Seoul." Jimin comments casually. Jeonggoo gives an awkward laugh.

"Yes. Actually, I did it two or three months after you."

"Oh."

Jeonggoo pulls her hair back, discovers that both sides are shaved. Takes a deep breath.

"I wanted to apologize to you."

"Uh?"

"You were right you know? Back then" Jeonggoo pushes her hair back again. "I was desperate to have people next to me, I didn't care that they were bad for me; I didn't even know how to see it."

"You were under twelve at first. No wonder. You were a child." Jimin puts pie in her mouth.

"I also wanted to apologize for not being a good match" Jimin blinks in surprise. "Having displaced you, not respecting what you decided, pushing you into things that got you in trouble and... ignoring a lot of what you said, which in the end was just to help me. I'm so sorry."
