"Then I guess almost all of us are in the same compartment?" Meera said earning herself a nod. "Actually if you guys are hungry, you should eat something at the next station. That's probably the last one where food will be available. The next would be around 9 I guess" meera added. "I'm hungry" Jimin sat up. "Me too" Jin said. They all turned to look at the manager who was the only one amongst them that held Indian currency. "I'm not sure about how to use it" the  manager said nervously scratching his nape. "I'll help you" Meera volunteered. "Thank you" the manager smiled.

"We hope we're not making you uncomfortable or being bothersome" Namjoon said cautiously. "Of course not" Meera smiled. "Yepota" Jungkook blurted making the rest glare at him. "Thanks?" Meera said confusedly. "You understand Korean?!" Taehyung exclaimed. "A bit. Thanks to K-dramas and K-pop." Meera shrugged. "That's impressive." Jungkook added. "Well almost every K fan knows simple words like yepota" Meera explained. "K fan?" Jin asked. " K-drama or K-pop fans" Meera answered. Her phone buzzed and she had to attend to it. 

"Hello?" she asked. When being questioned if she ate something , she answered yes. She also told her friend about the fanboy she met and his companions. "Woah that's impressive. Even I want a fanboy friend!" her friend answered. "Yeah and it's time for your tutor so go and study" Meera added chuckling.

"Your friend?" Taehyung asked. "Yeah. She's whining about how she wants a fanboy friend as well." Meera said breaking out into a smile. "Why can't she just have one?" Taehyung asked. "Well because fanboy friends are really rare in India. Once in a blue moon types" Meera explained. " Moons are blue?" Jin asked. "No, it's like an idiom for something that is rare" Namjoon elaborated. "Rare?" Jimin asked. " Something that doesn't happen often" Namjoon said. "

"Why are they rare though?" Hobi asked. "Because people here aren't really supportive of the asian love and stuff, especially the males. Not all but about  60% of the males I've met or known" Meera answered glumly. "Even after the white house event BTS took part in?" Yoongi quizzed. Meera nodded. "Never mind. I'm not commenting on that" Yoongi said as he leaned back into the support and closed his eyes. 

"He really seems to like sleeping" Meera noticed. "He sleeps the most out of all of us. That's probably because he's the most hardworking one. Explains why he is so tired all the time." Taehyung said fondly gazing at Yoongi. " Reminds me of Suga" meera smiled. "Yeah... like Suga" taehyung answered unfaltering-ly whereas Jungkook visibly gulped. "Well we have ten minutes from now, let's hurry up" Meera said getting up as the train came to a stop. The manager nodded and left with her. 

They came back Five minutes later with both their hands full of food packages, paper plates, juices and soft drinks. "I was wondering what we should do if the train left without you guys?" Taehyung asked. "Nothing, we'd take the bus to the next stop and await the train and board it again" meera answered calmly as she laid out the packages in her hand. 

"Here" she said handing each of them a plate as taehyung woke yoongi up. " How are we supposed to eat the fried rice without a spoon?"  Jungkook asked. " Well you could use your hands? Of course after you wash it. And that's lemon rice not fried rice" Meera said. "Hands?" Namjoon asked looking in disbelief.

"Well that's how we eat in India actually" Meera explained. "I don't care. I'm hungry and I'm eating". But, show me how?" Jin said as his stomach rumbled. "See like this" Meera said picking up a small portion and extending it in Jin's direction who reflexively opened his mouth. "Hold it with your fingers and push it inwards with your thumb. Simple" Meera said feeding it to Jin. "Uhmm... This is actually so good" Jin said munching. "It's a really famous dish" meera said. "Now, I know why it's famous." Jin commented. "Am I doing this right?" Taehyung said as he held a large portion in his hand. "You should try lessening the amount" Meera pointed out. 

A little later, they were all full and giggling around making jokes~
