Another Shade Of Love

Coincidence

The phone rang again, showing up 'Min Yoongi', and Jin's father snapped out of his thought. He picked up the phone with a trembling hand and answered, "Hello?"

"Hello, Sir. I'm Jin's friend, sir. Is Jin somewhere near you? Can you please give him the phone? It's important." It was Yoongi. He wanted to invite Jin to his studio to start the work.

"Hello, sir, are you there?"

"Yes! Um... Jin is in the kitchen... Please wait... I'm going to give the phone to him." Jin's dad said with a shaken doubtful voice. And he went to the kitchen.

On the other hand, Yoongi's eyes widened. He could not speak anything. "That voice... That voice... It can't be true! Am I mistaking? It can't be." He whispered to himself with a painful voice. Then he heard Jin's voice from the other side.

"Hello, Yoongichi! I'm very sorry that I could not meet you earlier. I was in a hurry."

"Um... It's okay Jin. Can you come here today? I was planning to start working with you and Kook." He hesitated.

"I'm sorry, Yoongichi. I can't go there today. I want to spend some time with my dad. Can I go tomorrow please?"

"It's okay, Jin. You can go there if it's important." Yoongi heard Jin's dad was speaking from afar. "That voice again! I'm not mistaking. It's him. It's him..."

"No dad, it's okay. I can go there tomorrow. I need to discuss something with you, dad. My friends will understand. Right, Yoongichi?"

"Yes, Jin. Enjoy your time." Yoongi cut the call. He was spacing out when the phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Yoongi, I called you so many times. Your phone was busy..."

"I was talking to Jin. Where are you, Kook?"

"I'm in your front door. Open the damn door. I'm waiting for too long. Your doorbell is not working, I think. I even knocked so many times."

"Okay, wait. I'm coming."

Yoongi ran to the door and opened it. His mother was not home and he didn't notice the knock. He felt bad for making Kook wait.

"Sorry, Kook!"

"Oh, no! It's okay. Let's start our work. I have to return home, you know!" He smacked Yoongi's back.

They were in Yoongi's studio. Yoongi was lost in his thoughts about Jin's father.

"Hey, Yoongi... Suga?!" Kook shook him and yelled. "What happened? You're not paying attention at all. Is everything alright?"

"Um... Sorry! I'm alright. What were you talking about?" Yoongi said lowering his head.

"Look, Yoongi. I know that you think I don't like you. But It's not like that. I like you, you're my friend. You can tell me what is bothering you."

"Hmm... I was thinking about Jin. Not really about Jin, about Jin's father."

"Oh, yes! Jin told me that he'll not come today because his father has come. Is it the reason you're upset?"

"Can I tell him? I'm not that close to him..." Yoongi thought.

"If you don't want to tell me then it's okay. Let's work."

They started discussing the lyrics.

# At Jimin's house

Jimin was rolling on his bed. He was curious about Jin and Yoongi. He could not wait and called Hobi.

"Hey, Hobi, what're you doing?"

"Just helping mom."

"Okay, then I'll call you later."

"No, it's okay. I have finished. Tell me what do you want?"

"I'm wondering what is Jin's father's name?"

"Why so sudden?"

"Nothing, I just want to do some research on Jin. You forgot about our mystery, Hobi. We have to work on it."

"Ah, if you were this much dedicated to your study... Whatever Jin's father's name is Min Ji-Hoon..." Hobi was not very interested in the conversation. He was just chilling.

"Wait a minute, Is not Yoongi's surname also Min?" Jimin was excited.

"Oh, yes. So what? Joon and Tae are Kim."

"Let me explain. First, I'm calling Joon. Wait!"

"But, why Joon..."

"Can you please stay silent for a second?" Jimin said annoyed.

"Okay!"

"Hello, guys! What's up?" Joon said with an excited tone.

"We're just chilling and talking about Yoongi. You know, we became closer to him. But we don't know anything about him." Jimin said.

"But I know lots about him. It's not that he told me himself. I got to know about him from our industry, I mean music-related."

"We know you're a genius, Joon. You care about your surroundings. If we could be like you." Jimin giggled. Hobi understood what Jimin was doing. He was just buttering Joon to get some information.

"Hehe, Thanks! Ah, I can tell you. We're friends, Jimin. So, Yoongi was in my middle school too. But we didn't talk for a single time. He never talked to anyone but a girl. I didn't know her."

"Girlfriend?!" Hobi asked.

"I don't think so. He never gave much attention to that girl. She cared for him. That's all. I don't know anything about their relationship... One more thing I know about him is that his father left him and his mother when he was little. He didn't return. From that time Yoongi wrapped himself up inside." Joon felt bad for Yoongi.

Jimin and Hobi also felt bad. But Jimin continued, "I'm feeling bad for him. We have to help him to be happy as he was in his childhood. Poor Yoongi. Joon, do you know his father's name?"

"No. Why? We don't need his father's name to help him. Now I'm getting doubt on you two. You surely are up to something." Joon said doubtfully.

"Ah, no, no... we're just curious. And... and my uncle works for the government. He is in a high position. So, I thought he can help us to find Yoongi's father." Jimin lied. He felt bad for lying but his intention was good.

"Is that so? Then I'll try to know his father's name. I'll let you know. Now I have to cut the call. My mom is calling." Joon said and cut the call.

"I told you that Joon is a spoiler king. You saw that, Nah?" Jimin was happy with his acting skills.

"You are too good at acting and lying, Jimin." Hobi mocked him.

"Is it a compliment or an insult? Whatever it is, I'm considering it as a compliment. Now let's wait for more information. I love solving this puzzle", Jimin said.

"Yeah, that's right. Now, good night. I have to go. Bye!"

"Bye, Good Night!"
