"Let me get this straight," Jungkook said while him and Charlotte sat down for dinner. "you saw a feral man in the jungle?" Jungkook asked somewhat skeptically.
"Yes, he had black hair that was grown out, and he wore loincloth" Charlotte explained astonished by her discovery.
"A loincloth?" Jungkook blurted right after her, and she nodded.
"Yes and he moved around on mostly all fours like an ape." She continued. Jungkook looked at his older sister for a few moments before taking her arms and glancing over them to check for any bite or stings that could resolute in result and hallucination. She yanked her arms back and said, "Its true! He was right there and touched my hand." She shouted enthusiastically, there have been tails of feral children raised in the wild in parts of south Asia but very few had ever lived to adulthood. Here there was one that looked to be no younger than his early 20s. "And the fact that he touched my hand indicates that it will be possible for him to interact with people! Do you see how huge this is!" She said with a large smile.
Jungkook had been following along while eating his stew that was still much to hot to be eaten. He was still somewhat confused but nodded while fanning his mouth with tears in his eyes. The rest of the night the two siblings talked about what they would do if they encountered the boy again. They agreed that they would try to befriend him and learn more.

The next morning Charlotte and Jungkook awoke in their tent when they heard a crash that caused Bam to start barking. Charlotte was the first out as Jungkook followed close behind holding a shotgun. Much to their surprise there was the feral boy. He was crouched next to their frying pan which he had most likely dropped given the bang and the left over food scattered on the forest floor.
Jungkook lowered his gun and held Bam back as Charlotte slowly approached the boy. He seemed to remember her because he showed little fear. Still Charlotte lowered herself to seem less threatening. She sat a few feet away from where he sat with her hand out like she had done the day before. He looked at her hand for a moment before coming forward and placing his hand against hers again.
"Charlotte," He spoke causing her to smile. She pointed at herself and repeated her name before pointing at him. He thought for a moment before pointing at her and repeating her name then to himself and saying something she wasn't expecting. "Jimin," He said.
"Jimin." She repeated again. before looking at Jungkook who looked shocked as ever. She pointed at herself "Charlotte," then to him, "Jimin," then to Jungkook, "Jungkook," and finally Bam, "Bam,".
