It was 3am in the morning. Jungkook was in deep sleep after packing his luggage. He has to leave early in the morning to the airport.. he is finally going home. A sweet smile adorned his lips.

He opened his eyes feeling his bed was shaking. He checks his body if he has a fever or not. Why is he trembling then? Then he noticed that it was not him that was trembling.. the whole bed was trembling.. the whole room was trembling.. the whole building was trembling.. the glass on the night stand fell off by the trembling . The lights on the ceiling were swinging vigorously. Something loud was hitting the window also.

Jungkook jumped from the bed in fear. He looked around and widened his eyes. Earthquake?? He picked his backpack which has all documents and ran out of the room. His room was at one end of the building along with Christopher's and Dr.Morgan's. The whole lights were blinking and some began to spark.

"JUNGKOOK..." Christopher pushed Jungkook along with him to a corner. They heard a loud noise behind them. Jungkook shivered in fear and looked back ..there.. the huge chandelier was shattered on the floor. A few seconds. If Christopher was late for a few seconds Jungkook would be under that huge glass hill.

"Wh..what's happening?" Jungkook asked in a shaky voice.

"Earthquake.." Christopher looked for a safe corner and moved there. The loud growling of earth is still hearing with shattering and collapsing noise. When they moved towards the door which opens outside.. the door along with the supporting wall collapsed in front of them. Jungkook screamed in fear. What the hell is happening!! He was experiencing something like that for the first time. More than the calamity his own fear was hunting him. They can hear some loud cries from the other side of the building. Jungkook was going to the other side but Christopher stopped him.

"We can't go there right now.. wait until this monster wave stops.." Christopher warned him.

They decided to stand there at their current position. The window panels of the hall broke down due to the storm and snow began to blow inside the room. Jungkook and Christopher secured their jackets.

"Dr.Morgan?" Jungkook looked at his room and asked Christopher.

"He is not there.. he went to the city in the evening.." Jungkook nodded in return. Suddenly trembling stopped. Jungkook sighed in relief. But not after a minute another loud noise came from the outside. And it's like something is coming from the up hill. And Christopher looked through the window and stunned at the sight.

"What? What's that noise again?" Jungkook asked worried.

"La.. landslide..!"

"WHAT??" Christopher pointed towards the uphill side and Jungkook saw that the rocks along with glaciers came down at an animalistic speed. That threw away a part of their building.. only spared one end.. where Jungkook and Christopher were standing. They both ran towards the tail end of that side. And it's over. The cries they heard from the other end are not hearing now.

"Wh..what happened to them...? Why.. they became silent..? " Jungkook asked Christopher even though he knows the answer. Christopher looked at him with a helpless look.

"Oh my God.. oh my God..." Jungkook shattered on the floor. These were too much for him. He is only nineteen for God's sake. Christopher came and sat beside him. Everything is over now. They two humans stuck in that cursed land.

Their building was totally collapsed. The upper two floors of Jungkook's room collapsed. If someone looked from the sky they can't say that there are two humans inside in their full senses. Even they can't say that there was a three storey building ten minutes back. Everything was covered by snow. And the electricity shut down completely.

Jungkook turned on his mobile flash light. He checked the network status. No signal at all.

"What will we do now? " he asked Christopher.

"We have to wait until morning. We can't do anything in darkness. There should be some way to go out.." Christopher said hopefully. They sat on the couch in the hall. Their room ceiling was completely broken. So they have no courage to go to the room.

Jungkook crossed his legs and elbows rested on his knees. He thought about his life. He was going to return home when the morning came. Look at him now. What has Moonie planned for him now? How will he go back now? When can he go back? He thought about Taehyung. Is she aware of what happened to him now? If she knew it.. she would be worried.. very much.. she would try to call him. But What will we do? There is no signal. What about his mom? Dad? Yoongi hyung? Hobi hyung? Eun ? Mark? He thought about everyone.

Taehyung was right. Now he knows how much he loves everyone.. how much he values everyone.. how much he misses everyone.. he knows everything now. The precious time we are getting with our loved ones. We don't know when they will be snatched away from us. We should appreciate each and every moment in our life.

He checked the time. Time was moving like a snail.It's only 4.30 am now. The sun will come out only after seven. Jungkook thought that when the sun came out he would go out from the building and he could somehow go to the airport and maybe he could leave for his country. If only he knows the truth. The trembling and landslide is over now. But the cold wind coming through the open window is freezing. By sitting on the couch both of them fell into a deep sleep.

"Jungkook.. wake up buddy.." Jungkook opened his eyes hearing Christopher calling him. Jungkook hurriedly stood up and picked his backpack to go out. But Christopher shook his head in disappointment and pointed towards the window. Jungkook looked at the window and his eyes widened. The windows were completely covered by snow. And the door to the outside was not there.. instead there was a big rock of the height of the floor. The only opening was the collapsed roof slab through which snow flakes were coming inside. Jungkook unknowingly dropped his backpack. So he was stuck. Stuck between nature's white blanket.. no food.. no water..no electricity.. no communication..no heat for survival!! How many days will they survive in that freezing climate?
