DISCOVERING LIFE(NAMJIKOOK,TAEGI,HOPEJIN)

CHAPTER 22

In the early morning of the next day, all seven gathered in the lobby as instructed by SeokJin.

"Good morning everyone, as per my previous plan we are supposed to hike further up in the mountain to enjoy the view and relax. Since Hoseok is slightly injured I'll take him to the nearby viewpoint of the mountain. Is it ok for y'all?" Jin looked at Hobi for a response. When he got a positive one he explained to everyone that, after hiking they had to gather at the waterfall to spend some time there and have lunch. Yoongi reluctantly agreed to hike up further. NamJiKook and Yoongi almost reached the viewpoint when they noticed that Taehyung was missing. With them freaking out and calling out for Tae, Tae joined the search party and started to look for himself. Around 30 minutes later he realized that instead of playing Hide and Seek with him, they were actually searching for him.

He pulled NamJoon's Arm, "Joooniiieee?" NamJoon shrieked as he heard Tae's tiny voice.

"Thank god, Tae. Where were you?"

With puppy eyes, Tae explained his misunderstanding.

Tae, being a mischievous person stuck his tongue out and hid behind Yoongi when he got an earful from Joon. At last, along with Tae, they reached the viewpoint. The sun was almost up with its rays shining on the nearby waterbody on the left, mountains being the frontier of the sun and bustling city life on the right. The scenery was so beautiful that Namjoon teared up unconsciously. Jikook were silent the whole time as they were trying to be courageous to make a move on Namjoon, Tae was engulfed in his own thoughts and became so quiet that Yoongi and others thought Tae got lost again. Until, they saw him sitting on top of a rock, hugging his knees like hugging someone and begging them to stay with him. His breathing started to fluctuate radically. Yoongi somehow felt that Tae needed a bear hug so he started hugging him so tightly with words of comfort coming out of his mouth as a melody. NamJiKook gave them some space even when Namjoon badly wanted to be there for him. "I never knew Tae had panic attacks too." Namjoon thought out loud. Parallelly, Jin and Hoseok shared small talk while comfortably sitting together and watching humankind and their activities.

Suddenly Hoseok felt a tug on his sleeve. "HI, Hansome." A small baby girl shyly called him. She dug a hole by scratching the ground with her little feet. When Hobi gave her a heart-shaped smile she ran away to a cute chubby woman holding a baby in her arms. The mother and daughter seemed to have a cute interaction before the little girl came back to them. Hobi waved his hand and the little girl with full blush waved back. She stretched out her right hand and was hiding something in her grip. "Am I pretty?" She asked while pointing herself with her other hand. "Of Course Dear, you are adorable and pretty." Hobi replied as he looked at the girl. He continued as he whispered to the man sitting right next to him "Sexy, caring, sweet, and hot too." Jin's ears turned deep red. "Mhmm." The girl cleared her throat, "Here. A gift for you." She handed over a piece of paper and quickly ran to the woman again. Jin and Hoseok curiously opened it to see a cute drawing of two figures with loads of hearts around them, even though the art was barely art Hobi and Jin found the gesture a cute one.

 Soon the kid and the woman with the baby were having small talk with Jin and Hoseok. The small girl's name was Lisa, the woman's name was Rosé, the name of the baby was Jennie and apparently, Rosé was the girlfriend of Jisoo(A distant relative of Yoongi). As two hours passed, Rosé finished the story of how Jisoo got custody of both the children from her ex-husband and how they ended up here as a part of its celebration. The group concluded their chit-chat when Lisa became hungry and started biting Hoseok, imagining him as strawberry candy.

Jin flirtatiously whispered to Hoseok about sweet he smelled with the strawberry scent on him till his face turned red. They laughed it off as Hoseok lifted Lisa, made her sit on his lap, and gave her a bar of chocolate.

*somewhere in the visible distance*

*shutter sounds*

"Shit, every day I stay here, I'm finding something new. I'm gonna be super rich in no time."

By lunchtime, all seven gathered at the hotel's buffet. Soon enough they were giggling and flirting so much that the staff in the room started squealing at almost all flirtatious comments given by the boys. Around half a later the boys met Jisoo, Rosé, Lisa, and Jennie. Yoongi and Jisoo made small talk while they were enjoying the company of the other three girls. By nighttime, they gathered around to play group games like Jenga and Uno. Lisa was with Hoseok at the beginning of the game but ended up with Jin at the end of the night as he kept winning all the games which were fascinating for the little girl.    As the clock hit 10 everyone dispersed to their respective rooms, except NamJiKook. JiKook requested Namjoon to spend some time with them.

" We need to tell you something."
