Hoseok looked at the man who was sitting like a lost puppy. He felt guilty for saying mean things to the man. "Don't say that. Look, I am sorry. But maybe you are not dead. May be you are just....", Hoseok stopped mid-sentence. He didn't know what to tell Jungkook.

"If I could just remember who I was. I am trying so hard but it's not working. It's just that I just cannot do it myself", Jungkook looked at Hoseok sheepishly with hope. Hoseok looked at Jungkook who understood the underlying expression of Jungkook.

"Oh no no, you are not asking me to help, are you?", Hoseok said thinking the unthinkable. But Jungkook looked at him and whimpered like a puppy.

"Urghhh, fine I will help you, but stop whimpering like a dog", Hoseok sighed.

"Okay, let's start with the building." Hoseok's hunt to find Jungkook's identity has started. He began with the neighbors in the apartment. But no one knew who Jungkook was or the fact that he even lived there. He asked a few people who came him neutral answers.

"Ummm, I have seen him once, totally anti-social, didn't talk", said one.

"There was a dude living there? I don't know", said the other.

Jungkook sighed, "Maybe I was a ghost even before I died."

Hoseok rolled his eyes and knocked another door hoping someone would shed light on who Jungkook was. A man opened the door. He looked handsome; his six pack abs spoke volumes that he worked out well.

"Hi, how can I help you?"

"Umm, I am Hoseok a new tenant here."

"Hi Hoseok, I am Cha Enwoo. Come on in." But Hoseok just stood there. The last thing he wanted was to go inside a stranger's apartment.

"No, I have a question about a guy who lived in my apartment upstairs."

"I think there was a dude living upstairs. But he was so anti-social."

"Hmm, so we weren't friends or even acquaintances. No worries. Let's just go", Jungkook told Hoseok.

"Okay, this might sound a bit odd but would you like to come in, grab a beer?", Enwoo invited Hoseok.

Jungkook didn't like the way this guy was flirting with Hoseok. It made him gag internally.

"Uh-oh, I think he wants you to come in, you know "cum" in", Jungkook said air quoting the C word.

"Urgh get your mind out of the gutter," Hoseok said.

"What?" Enwoo asked innocently.

"Oh, nothing. I would like to help you out but I...I have dinner plans."

"Nice, Why don't you join me? I've got dessert", Enwoo said.

"Urghh, I wanna gag", Jungkook stuck his finger in his mouth pretending to gag.

"Yeah, well I gotta go. See you later", Hoseok said as he walked away hurriedly back to his apartment.

"Yeah byeee hoseokkkkkiiiiieeee", Enwoo cooed much to Jungkook's annoyance.

They were walking back to their apartment. Jungkook was murmuring about the guy not wearing any shirt. "Why would he not wear any shirt in winter? Doesn't he feel chilly? Why does he need to flaunt his abs?"
