Another hour passed, and Jimin still wasn’t home. Tae, who had calmed down earlier, was now growing visibly restless again. His fingers fidgeted with the hem of his sweater, his eyes darting toward the clock every few minutes.

Yoongi noticed the change immediately. With a sigh, he pulled out his phone.

Yoongi:  "Let me call him," he said, hoping to reassure Tae.

Jungkook leaned forward, watching as Yoongi dialed Jimin’s number and put the call on speaker. The phone rang a few times before someone finally answered—but it wasn’t Jimin.

Secretary: "Hello, Mr. Kim," a formal voice greeted.

Yoongi’s brow furrowed.

Yoongi:  "Where’s Jimin?"He asked directly

Secretary: "This is his secretary speaking," the man replied. "Mr. Park is still in the meeting. He instructed not to be disturbed unless it was urgent."

Yoongi exhaled sharply.

Yoongi: "Right. Fine." He hung up without another word, his jaw tightening as he looked at Tae.

Tae’s expression fell.

Tae: "He’s not coming back?" His voice was small, laced with worry.

Jungkook immediately shook his head.

Jungkook: "No, no, that’s not it. He’s just busy, Tae. Hyung’s fine."

Tae: "But he said two hours…" Tae mumbled, pulling his knees to his chest. "He always comes back when he says he will…"

Yoongi ran a hand down his face. He knew Tae’s attachment to Jimin was strong, and anything outside of routine unsettled him. He glanced at Jungkook, silently communicating what they needed to do.

Jungkook clapped his hands together.

Jungkook:  "Alright! Since Jimin hyung is taking forever, let’s do something fun until he comes back."

Tae looked at him, unimpressed.

Tae: "Like what?"

Jungkook grinned.

Jungkook: "Like… a game. Or—oh! Let’s bake something! You love sweets, right?"

Tae hesitated, glancing between them.

Tae:  "Jimin hyung said no cooking…" he said complaining

Yoongi smirked: "Technically, he said not to cook alone. You’ve got us, so it doesn’t count."

Tae thought for a moment before nodding slowly.

Tae:"Okay… but if Jimin hyung gets mad, I’ll tell him it was Jungkook’s idea."

Jungkook gaped : "Excuse me?! You little—"

Tae: "Too late, deal’s made," Tae said, hopping off the couch.
