Chapter 6: Bangtan Tracks Seorin Again

[ Jin's POV ]

It's already Tuesday but there is no sign of Seorin. J-Hope keeps giving hopes, Jimin keeps doing pranks, Jungkook keeps missing Seorin and me? I keep noticing them. No, but seriously. I'm worried for my

friend. She can't be contacted in any way.

"How about if we asked the help of our sungsaengnim? Or your father? I'm sure they have files of Seorin and we will try to contact her with those."

"Good idea."

"Then later, we will go to their house."

"This is really a mission for the J4!"

So at dismissal, we asked the help of our teacher and she told us she'll help with the files while we will go to Seorin's house.

"Now, this is teamwork!"

We became disappointed because the house is closed and obviously, no one's inside.

"Our only hope is Ms. Park", J-Hope said, crossing his fingers.

"Here are all the contact numbers which may lead to Seorin. I even scanned my call log!"

"Jungkook took a deep breath and dialed each digit. Unfortunately, even after several tries, it still can't.

Seorin, where are you? I hope you are safe.

[ Jimin's POV ]

Suddenly, I had an idea.

"Wait, we can try to contact her friend. Maybe she knows."

"Who? That Nikki?"

"Definitely!"

"But how?"

"By e-mail! I can still remember it! I played a joke on her", I confessed.

"Ah, that's why you made a peace sign when we saw Seorin the last time..."

"Yes."

They're making me guilty with what I did. Jungkook kept walking back and forth. "Relax, okay? We'll deal with this."

We are going to the coffee shop to perform the mission when we meet the group.

"Hi. Where's Seorin?", that very white guy asks.

"She's lost."

"Lost?"

"Yes, since she went to Philippines last Wednesday and promised to return on Saturday but until now, no Seorin."

"That's a sad story. But as Jin's friends, the rest of you are my friends now also. We'll help you."

They're still nice, not like the first impression of J-Hope to them.

"E-mail Nikki now", Jungkook commanded like a sir. He seems to be impatient so I tried to make him laugh.

"Yes, Kookie", I imitated Seorin's voice.

Only J-Hope laughed because Jin is not paying attention to us. He is indulged with his own music world. I tried to open my long-not-seen e-mail account, I'm not that kind of tech-y. I just want to have fun in the real world.

New message. Jin was the one to typed in, "Hi, Nikki. I'm one of Seorin's friends here in Korea. Do you have an idea where she is? She is not been attending school for almost a week now. We are worried about her. Please reply as soon as possible. Thanks."

Jin is the one whom I let to type in the message because he has the calmest attitude of all of us.

"Done?"

"Yes."

"Okay, we'll just have to wait for a reply. I hope this will solve the problem."

[ Jungkook's POV ]

I trusted Jimin's prank, err, plan. He's smart. He has always ways of getting out or getting in of a mess. But what now? It's now fall but I still don't know about Seorin. I asked the help of my appa but still they can't find the Han family. Don't tell me... It can't be! It can't be!

Yes, I started from the beginning, tracking Seorin. It's the first step, right? But this time, it's more difficult. Where in the world would she breathing right now?

If I ruled the world, I'll tell everyone that they should bring me the girl who rules my heart. But no, I'm just a student studying here in a performing arts school!

These are the things that are going on my mind as I was drinking this cold and bitter Americano. It makes sense now that you're not here, Seorin. Jin has to treat no one but himself. Oh... Look now. I'm remembering her again and it makes the taste more bitter as I drink it. But I think I know why I keep drinking it.

Why am I getting so sad that everyone lives this way?

"Jungkook, are you okay?"

"Why am I getting so sad?"

"As you can see, our graduation is almost near! Time flies so fast."

With what J-Hope has said, my eyes went big. So it means that our debut in the industry is approaching! Appa agreed to make some partnership with the Bighit so that we would have less time in training because some of the workshops are already part of the curriculum.

"Now I know what to do." I took my last sip of Americano. "This is my last sip of bitterness."

[ J-Hope's POV ]

I'm glad that the old Jungkook is slowly returning. He often smiles and laughs with us now. That's why I seldom sleep because I appreciate more the company of everyone – the J4.

He has now a positive aura and goes better in school and in trainings compared to the past months. Has he moved on? What inspires him now?
