Jungkook is sitting with his back leaned against the seat, holding a packet of chips. He keeps popping chips into his mouth, chewing them one after another, his face adorned with an enchanting smile. His expression reveals just how happy he is. It's not just that he's excited about going to Busan only, these days, everything seems to bring him joy for no particular reason. There's something on his mind that makes him smile absentmindedly.

Taehyung had gone to the next cabin a little while ago to talk to the guards. The entire plane is filled with Taehyung, Jungkook, and their guards. It's their private jet, so there's no one else onboard. Although this situation initially causes Jungkook a mix of discomfort, fear, and annoyance, now it has turned into something amusing, ridiculous, and enjoyable for him.

After being in a certain environment for a while, it becomes easier to adapt and embrace it; eventually, nothing else feels as good. For Jungkook, the things that once bothered him have transformed into sources of joy.

After a while, Taehyung comes back and sits down beside him. Jungkook glances at Taehyung and then looks outside; the dark sky reveals nothing. Taehyung pulls Jungkook's head close to his chest and, while stroking his hair, says,

--" It's very late now, you should go to sleep now, baby.

--" Oh, but I'm not sleepy at all!

Jungkook pouts, popping another chip into his mouth.

--" It's 3:48 AM, Jungkook. You should sleep soon; otherwise, you'll feel unwell. You didn't sleep on the way here either. I changed the flight from ten o'clock to one because you insisted. Now it's the middle of the night, hurry up and sleep.

He holds Jungkook a bit tighter.

--" I'm not sleepy at all!

Jungkook pouts again.

--" Close your eyes, and you'll feel sleepy. And if you don't sleep, I will... he teases with a mischievous smile.

Seeing Taehyung's way of speaking, Jungkook quickly puts the packet of chips down and prepares to close his eyes, feigning sleep. Taehyung grins at this and, after opening the water bottle, pulls Jungkook's head towards him, pinching his cheek and making him drink some water. Jungkook smiles, drinking the water with his eyes still closed, and this makes Taehyung laugh.

Once again, Taehyung pulls Jungkook close and starts stroking his hairs, while Jungkook, lost in the moment, squeezes his eyes shut even tighter.

--" Have you heard any news about Jhope? How much longer will we have to be away from him?

Mrs. Park asked her husband, wiping away the tears with the edge of her long mufflers.

--" No, I haven't found any leads. When someone decides to disappear on their own, it's pointless to keep searching. However, the police force is doing their job.

Mr. Park replied, disheartened.

Hearing Mr. Park's words, Mrs. Park burst into tears. It's been so long since they last saw their son, they have no idea how he is or what he's doing. The only thing they received was a single message, and that was a long time ago, with no further updates.

The message was: I'm going to London. Don't try to find me.


Since then, there's been no news. They tried calling several times, but the phone was switched off. With no way to reach him, they were forced to seek police assistance. Even the police, however, have yet to provide any information.
