Present
It's a Saturday afternoon, and the weather had been playing with them. It's 26 degrees right now. Earlier this morning, it was a little hot. Jimin as usual was swamped with his workload, there were piles of paper on his desk, and he thought of going to the rooftop, he watched the skies and he had a clear view of the city. He sensed that the sky was a little gloomy, from striking yellow, it changed to light blue with a hint of pink and orange with clouds covering it. "It will rain in the evening" Jimin mumbled to himself.
Taehyung was in his normal self, as there were no signs whatsoever he had been feeling on and off for the past week, he followed Jimin and watched the skies along with Jungyeon. The toddler was showing little improvement, he got Jimin's hands and clasped them to his, he also got Taehyung's and they started to twirl. "Ring-around-the-rosy" was the game that he would like to play, after a few minutes he got bored and just run. He went back and forth until his tiny feet gets tired. Minji followed them after. "Mommy, I love you! " as she kissed Jimin on his cheeks. "I love you, Princess!" Jimin replied while they were walking hand in hand. They were just strolling as Jimin tried to relax his mind.
"I will miss this, I will miss this place," Jimin said to his head. Minji's class will soon end and that means that they are about to leave. They will be living on the property that Taehyung's parents gave them. Jimin had mixed emotions, the place that their living now has tons of memories, good and bad. The condominium that he is renting has a mark on his heart. He got this when he and Jungkook had finally called it quits in 2017. And this is where he also felt pain when he lost the baby in 2018. Lastly, Taehyung moved in with him in 2020. A lot has happened to Jimin's stay in this place. It witnessed a few phases of his life. Jimin is scared and excited about what's going to come. He hopes that he could brave it all like he had been doing for years now.
Minji, Jungyeon, and Taehyung were off to bed early. They all got tired from playing on the rooftop and Jimin was alone, working on his assignment. He was doing some research on the case. "Mr. Park, we have another lead to the Cha Case," the person said on the other line. "Wow! that's great news, Mr. Lee". Jimin was assigned with his new partner Lee Minho. Mr. Baek's leave will take a while, and he will be assigned to a different case, so they thought of giving Jimin a new partner. " Email the details to me Minho and I'll cross-reference it with the one that I have here," Jimin said and he hung up.
Jimin checked on the reports again, he went to the picture that he last took and had it submitted to another specialist. "Good evening Mrs. Cha, sorry to. disturb you, but we would like to invite you on Monday to the office, we just have
a question, we have another lead to your husband's case." Jimin said as he was looking at the papers in his hand. "Thank you, Mr. Park, I'll be there" Mrs. Cha replied and she hung up the phone.MRS. CHA's POV
I shouldn't panic, I better remain calm. It's his fault. If he just gave me what I'm supposed to have then it wouldn't lead to this. How did they find out? I'll just tell them that it was an accident.
