THE WIZARD [vkook]

22: a safe home

Taehyung and Jungkook had a calm morning, waking up in such a unique place felt a bit strange to Taehyung. This wasn't just a different landscape or nature. This was a completely different world.

So the first thing he did after getting up was go to their bedroom balcony and stare into the city in awe.

The city wasn't as busy as the big harbour where they just came from in his own world. But the people here all looked so wealthy and well dressed, in mainly colors from the blue hues. It matched beautifully with their environment. From the blue flags, the birds and of course the fountains on the plaza that he could see from there. It was like a piece of art right in front of his eyes.

"Good morning cutie" Jungkook's warm voice was heard followed by a chuckle. "enjoying the view?"

"it's beautiful here, everything looks so...Magical"

"That's what your world looks like to me. But i do admit that this city is very pretty. Not all of them are so light and welcoming. We will try to stay away from those unlucky places."

"You really grew up here? But your eyes don't match the citizens here"

"I grew up here, I was not made here. I didn't not live here with a family like others here did. I escaped here, and stayed with Seokjin who kept me safe until I could go out on my own."

"He looks like a good person, helping us and giving us a place to sleep." Taehyung smiled. "sooo, where were you born then?" Taehyung just took his shot and waited a bit anxiously for an answer.

"i don't k....Let's leave that for now, I actually came to get you for breakfast. I already set the table, seokjin is waiting for us." Jungkook turned back around and was about to leave the room again.

"Okay..." Taehyung sighed. again his question wasn't answered. Jungkook seemed fine telling him all about his experiences and abilities, but whenever it got personal he would avoid the question in any way he could. it left him thinking of seokjin's words even more.

The three had a delicious breakfast with flavours that taehyung never thought would be good together and even new flavours. Here in the Azure isles the people eat some kind of flower grape. It looked like a white bell flower but bigger and more round. the tips of the leaves were together closing off the flower. These would be plucked and eaten. The petal made ball would release a quite thick fruity flavoured honey that melted on your tongue. It was a special kind of treat, and very expensive. These flowers only grew at the bottom of the floating island, so harvesting them was always a hard and dangerous job.

"These are so delicious, such a shame it's hard to get those," Taehyung said and took another bite of the honey filled flower.

"I can get us some during our flight," Jungkook said. "We can pass by the harvest spots. then i can also show you what they look like, they are such unique flowers." Jungkook smiled and cleaned his sticky fingers with the damp cloth next to his plate.

"I would love to see that!"

"When will you leave the isles?" Seokjin asked while pouring each of them another glass of herb tea.

"I think after breakfast, I still have to take off Zuzu's wrapping."

"Zuzu, she is here with you? How is she doing? i haven't seen her in so long, "Seokjin smiled and sat back down with the tea cup in his hands.

"She is doing well. She grew into a very big girl. She is almost twice the size as when you last saw her, she grew fast"

"That's good to hear, give her lots of hugs from me, oh oh, and bring her this" seokjin stood up with the tea cup in hand and walked into his open kitchen. When he got back to the table he handed Jungkook a huge dried branch with green dried flowers on it. "her favorite treat, i still had it laying here in case you came visit again. "
