Man in Dreams

Homecoming Laughter

Three days later, Hobi arrived at Maya's place to pick her up. As soon as she saw him, she rushed over and wrapped him in a tight hug. "Miss you, Bablu," she said, her voice filled with affection as she squeezed him tightly.

Hobi grinned, his ever-shining Sunshine smile lighting up his face. "Miss you too, Bubli," he replied, hugging her back just as tightly.

Once they settled into the car, they began to share their recent experiences, laughing and reminiscing about old times. Hobi started the car and began driving, both of them enjoying the light-hearted conversation.

"Maya, you won't believe what happened during our last dance practice," Hobi said, eyes twinkling with amusement. "Jimin tried this new move and ended up falling right on his face!"

Maya burst into laughter. "Oh my God, poor Jimin! I can totally picture that. Did he get up and act like nothing happened?"

"Of course he did!" Hobi laughed. "You know him too well."

Maya chuckled, her eyes sparkling with affection for their mutual friend. "You guys always have the best stories."

In a playful mood, Maya reached over and pulled Hobi’s cheek. "Oh Hobi, I love you!" she exclaimed dramatically.

As soon as Maya heard Yoongi clear his throat from the back seat, she turned around, her eyes widening in surprise. She quickly glanced at Hobi, who was grinning mischievously.

"Why didn't you tell me Yoongi was here?" Maya asked, giving Hobi a playful glare.

Hobi laughed, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "Surprises are not to be told, Bubli," he teased, knowing full well how Maya loved unexpected moments.

Maya sighed dramatically and turned back to Yoongi, making a mock sad face. Yoongi winked at her, his eyes twinkling with affection. "Where's my 'love you' quote?" he whispered teasingly.

Maya couldn't help but chuckle softly at Yoongi's playful demeanor. "Oh, you'll get it," she whispered back, feeling her heart swell with love for him.

With a mischievous grin, Maya then practically leaped from her seat into Yoongi's arms, causing Yoongi to laugh heartily at her exuberance.

"Idiot, I’m driving!" Hobi playfully scolded Maya, giving her a gentle hit on her arms. "You’re going to get us killed!"

Maya ignored Hobi’s scolding, her focus entirely on Yoongi. "Oh come on, Hobi, my love is sitting here!" she declared dramatically, making her way next to Yoongi by climbing over the seats.

Yoongi pulled her close, chuckling. "You're really a crazy woman, Maya," he said, shaking his head in amusement.

Hobi glanced at them through the rearview mirror and chuckled. "Finally, someone spoke the truth," he teased.

Maya gave Hobi a gentle pat on the shoulder. "Keep your focus on the road, Hobi," she said, her tone half-serious.

"Yoongi, what are you doing here?" Maya asked, curiosity and happiness evident in her voice.

Yoongi reached out and pulled her cheek playfully. "I just wanted to see you and to tell you that I’ll come tomorrow as promised. We can talk to your father together," he assured her.

Maya nodded, suddenly feeling a tear drop down her cheek. Yoongi gently wiped it away. "These eyes should never shed tears when I am around," he said softly.

Hobi couldn’t help but laugh at their tender moment. "You guys are really too much," he commented, shaking his head.

Yoongi chuckled and looked at Hobi. "Hajima, Hobi. Just focus on driving," he said, his tone playful yet caring.
