Eternal love: whispers of destiny

~REMEMBER HIM~

ARA's POV

I wasn't kidding when I said I wanna create my own world. When I read, I could see pictures rolling in my head.

As I progress through this major, I am excited to discover the limitless possibilities of my imagination. Hence, I opted for 'creative writing' as a major for my bachelor's.

I remember the first time I shared my world-building project with my classmates during a workshop session. Their reactions were priceless.

One of my classmates, an illustrator and also my former classmate from high school, Jimin, was particularly drawn to my descriptions. He asked why I hadn't talked to him before about this idea.

Since then, we have been working together on different projects, converting my ideas into gorgeous illustrations that perfectly encapsulate my work.

Our friendship has blossomed from that day onward.

In high school, even though we were in the same friend circle, we were not that close. However, fate seemed to bring us together at the perfect time, and our shared passion for creativity strengthened our connection in ways we never could have anticipated. He has become a very good friend of mine.

Jieun chose medical. She wants to become a neurosurgeon like her father, Uncle Mark.

She was closer to Jimin than me during high school, and they were good friends.

I just do not understand why Jieun and Jimin are still only friends! I mean, there is clearly a spark between them.
Everyone has seen how they flirted with each other, how they always chose each other for any task during our weekend games.

Their friendship has never been a simple 'just friends' thing. They are more than that and everyone can see that but them.
Or maybe they know but waiting for the right time? I don't know. I am not the one to judge them. Either way, both of them are precious to me and I just want the best for them.

(They will be cute together, though.)

I separately inquired with them both about the idea of dating each other and they both denied it because they are ONLY FRIENDS.

I cannot help but roll my eyes at the situation.

Personally, I believe something more is going on here, but who am I to judge their relationship? Only they know what's really up.

Jungkook and Taehyung went into management as they will be taking over their companies and following the already set path for them.

Sad! (not judging.)
They know what they want.

Jin is in his second year of medical school (in his P.G.) on his way to becoming a prestigious Neurosurgeon, and after 4 years of medical school completion, he will receive his M.D.

Yoongi and Hoseok have completed their 4-year degree of Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Musical Theatre and Dance, and they are preparing for their debut with a musical company. Both of them are great singers.

Namjoon is a famous Rapper and musician. He had completed his degree in the same field as Yoongi's.

Yoongi knows his way with piano and guitar. And can play different instruments. I started learning guitar after a few months of high school graduation.

He agreed after so many requests, pleas, and favors.

He is that difficult.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yoongi returned before an hour had passed, as he promised. Namjoon and Jin arrived shortly afterward. Jin bought his car.

We all hopped in, settling ourselves in the vehicle. Yoongi took the driver's seat, while I claimed the passenger seat. Taehyung and Jungkook were comfortably seated in the back.

Jieun informed us that she would be taking Jin's car, as she needed the entire back seat for herself.

Jin has a spacious BMW X7. He would be the one behind the wheel while Namjoon occupied the passenger seat. Jimin and Hoseok shared the middle, and Jieun enjoyed her personal space in the back.

I connected my phone to the music system and started playing music. Yoongi started the engine, and we were off to HOME.

Excitement filled the air, and we couldn't contain our enthusiasm as I and Jungkook started singing loudly in the car but not loud enough to disturb Yoongi.

Yoongi is smiling from ear to ear and I could swear this time that I can hear Taehyung's laughter in between the music.

Taehyung is quite an extrovert; he does a lot of clubbing with Jungkook and Yoongi. They even drag us, I and Jieun, to the clubs. We usually spend weekends together.

So, I am finally going home.

Right now, my happiness is at its peak. I am going to visit my favorite places there. We decided to visit our old school too and meet our old friends.

And...

...there's someone who is waiting for me and for whom I am waiting.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For some reason, I don't know what that is, but I was always away from home. My mother told me that they almost lost me once due to the accident and that I had lost all of my memories, including those related to the accident.

And mom has never let me visit the town since I left.

I love New York but I miss my home. I couldn't go there and that is why we didn't tell her that we were visiting the town.

I know she will be angry but I miss home too much to feel the fear of her getting angry at me.

We have this big forest attached to our town, which is usually dark even during the daytime. People are scared to go there as there are horror stories related to it.

Mom used to warn me not to go close to the forest. If anyone ever entered the forest, they never came back.

She used to say the forest is haunted and very bad things happened there, and my accident is also related to the forest, but if I try to remember the memories forcefully, it could affect my health, so I don't have to worry about the past and keep moving forward.

I don't remember anything.

Not even a single thing.

But...

Should I tell you a secret?

A secret that my family doesn't know.

I remember everything.

I remember HIM.
