Then his fate turned even luckier and he heard Jungkook's voice. Taehyung's ears felt blessed upon hearing Jungkook. He began to dance with joy. His happiness knew no bounds. He was just dancing, lost in the moment. Jungkook watched him and smiled softly.

"You don’t need to suffer or grieve in my memory. Your tears, your restlessness, and your pain have already reached me. I am aware of your love for me. Please don’t shed tears for me instead, whenever you think of me, visit my grave and spend some time there. This will lighten your heart and help you feel less alone. Even after my death, I am always with you in spirit. Never think of yourself as being alone. I made a promise to always be by your side, and even after death, I want to fulfill that promise. I hope you come to understand the depth of my love for you. Please don’t cry for me it only brings me sorrow."

Jungkook's voice continued to echo softly, a gentle, reassuring presence. Taehyung’s heart swelled with love and gratitude. He felt Jungkook's warmth around him as if his spirit was dancing alongside him, sharing in the euphoria of this extraordinary moment.

As Taehyung danced, Jungkook’s figure reappeared briefly, visible only to Taehyung. Jungkook's smile was tender and filled with pride. It was a smile that said everything would be okay, that their bond was unbreakable despite the distance between life and the afterlife.

Taehyung reached out toward Jungkook’s fading image, his hands grasping at the air as if trying to hold onto this precious moment. With tears of joy streaming down his face, he continued to dance, feeling as if he was finally in harmony with the universe.

The light around the graveyard grew softer and the echoes of Jungkook’s voice gradually faded. But the sense of peace and the warmth of Jungkook’s presence lingered in Taehyung’s heart.

Eventually, Taehyung slowed his dancing, feeling a deep sense of calm. He whispered a final thank you to the air, his heart full of love and newfound strength. With one last look at the grave, he turned to leave, carrying the memory of Jungkook’s voice and smile with him, knowing that he would always be a part of his life.

I'll be back Bun," he promised softly. "I'll always come back."

Taehyung stood up and took one last look at the grave. With a heart a little lighter, he turned and walked back towards the car, feeling a newfound sense of hope.

He saw a driver waiting for him. He smiled at him and got into the car.

As they drove away, Taehyung looked out the window, feeling Jungkook's presence with him. The journey ahead was still long and painful but he knew he wasn't alone. And that knowledge gave him the strength to move forward, one step at a time.

After reaching the palace, Taehyung saw that Nefa and Bam were waiting at the gate. As soon as they saw him, they rushed over.

Seeing Taehyung so happy, Nefa and Bam exchanged glances.

“Taehyung, are you okay?” Bam questioned.

“Yes, I’m very happy. You know I just met Bun” Taehyung replied with a sweet smile plastering on his lips.

Bam looked at Nefa and both felt that Taehyung might be so overwhelmed by grief that he was hallucinating Jungkook.

Nefa grabbed Taehyung’s hand and took him to the lounge. He made him sit on the couch and gave him water.

Bam sat on the floor, holding Taehyung’s hands and softly said, “Taehyung, you need treatment—”

Taehyung pulled his hands away and started shouting at him. “Shut up, Bam.”

He then explained to them how Jungkook had showered him with flowers and how Jungkook had started talking to him in the cemetery.

Taehyung tried his best to make them understand but Nefa and Bam couldn't believe it. They thought this was the result of severe grief. Taehyung was frustrated and began pulling at his hair, his eyes turning red with anger as he tried to explain that he wasn’t crazy and that what he was saying was extremely true.
