A young male looks towards the audience behind the curtains of the stage.

"I'm sure they will come Hyung! They usually don't miss one of your showcases! I doubt they would especially miss this one," Yeonjun, a classmate tells a worried and stressed male that keeps looking at the audience behind the stage the best he can. Waiting to see the people he loves and calls family.

"I hope they don't. I worked very hard for this song and performance. However, I can't help but start to feel like they won't or like in other words I am losing hope. The showcase is about to start in two minutes," The male replies with a worried tone.

"Well, you are our almost closing act so maybe they wish to see your performance only. Don't start overthinking, okay? The night is not over yet," Yeonjun tries to keep the older male positive.

Jungkook looks one more time at the audience and nods, "Let's hope that's the case, anyways let's go get into position, we need to go out there and not go in distracted no?" The older asks trying to be positive himself though he was still losing that positivity and hope with each minute.

"That is true, let's go kill that stage!" Yeonjun excitedly says the male and Jungkook pats his shoulder as an indication to start moving.

"Please don't disappoint me today. Please tell me you made time for at least this. It is very important..." Jungkook mumbled to himself and frowned before taking a deep breath and trying to smile and seem okay. He had to go there and be professional, his grade counted on it

"Man that reunion party was so nice huh? It was nice to see some of our old classmates and friends again," Tae thinks back on the reunion that he had with Jimin two hours ago.

"It was! I had fun but for some reason I can't help but feel that something is wrong?" Jimin replies with a smile and then sees the time it was already 12:30.

"Hey, did you end up finding out where kookie went? It's 12:30 and he's not home yet, he usually is home by this hour," Jimin says out to Tae who looks at his phone.

"No, let me text him? Maybe he went out with some college buddies or had something to do for Hobi hyung that we don't know of?" Tae replies texting Jungkook. They weren't so worried because the younger one always showed up and let them know when he was arriving to their shared apartment late.

"I'll do the same too just in case, let's wait for him for the meanwhile or wait his response," Jimin says as he looks at his phone while he texts the younger.

They were hoping for a response but it had been an hour and there was still no response from Jungkook. It was then that they started to worry, the youngest had never come home this late at night.

The rare times he did he always let them know but the fact they hadn't received any messages from the younger set in some panic. They knew he was a capable 22-year adult who can look after himself, but they still couldn't help it.

"Okay, it's one thirty and he hasn't responded to my messages or calls, has he responded to yours?" Tae asks worried and Jimin shakes his head.

"Nope, I haven't tried calling though but let me try doing that," Jimin details the younger male's number and hears three rings but no answer.

"He's not answering me, why don't we ask one of the hyungs? Maybe he's with them and he forgot to charge his phone or hasn't looked at it? It's weird of him to do this, in fact, he never has but there's a first to everything," Jimin suggests and the other boy nods.

"Gosh where could he be at this hour? Can't be with Mingyu and Eunwoo seeing how they are on a school trip to Jeju. I hope everything is okay. It's really strange that he hasn't responded to us," Jimin shakes his leg after being told by his hyungs that they hadn't been with Jungkook.
