Hey, how are you all?
It's been a long time.

"Jungkook," After giving it hundreds of thoughts, Taehyung finally spoke slightly shifting in the seat. His almond orbs were softly gazing at the boy sitting on his left side, contrasting with his usual sharp gaze.

" Mm, Mr.Kim," Koo chewed the words unconsciously as he looked at Taehyung from the corner of his eyes.

"Mr.Kim?" Taehyung repeated, bewildered.

"Yes. Why did you call me?" He was salty for no reason. Maybe the name. His heart rate was calmer than earlier.

"What? Jungkook?" Taehyung understood somehow. He noticed the cute nose crunch whenever he addressed the boy.

Koo was about to say something when his phone rang louder in his gray jeans pocket. His attention shifted to the device as he took it out and looked at the caller ID.

*Minnie hyungie🌷 calling*

He glanced at Taehyung and turned aside to the window before picking up the call. His backside was exposed to stare at and a bunch of nape hair was peeking out from his beanie. Taehyung couldn't help but reach a hand out to caress the silky strands. The slender fingers were an inch away from their goal when suddenly Eunsik coughed, and the man retreated his arm speedily and scratched his earlobe, blushing hard.

Koo was unaware of it all, immersed in talking with his hyung. He was speaking in a low voice akin to whispers.

"Koo, I can't understand what you are saying, speak a bit louder baby,"

"Hyungie, I'm in the car,"

"So,"

"Uh-hu, nothing, I'll call you once we reach Daegu."

"oh I forgot you texted me,"

Koo nodded his head unconsciously. Jimin got it on the other side though knowing his brother well.

"Kookoo, you are enjoying it there, right? Are you happy?"

"Of course," Koo pricked at the hem of his hoodie,"I'm happy," his tiny voice reached Taehyung's ear who could sense the sadness engulfing Koo.

"Then where is your smile, hnm,"

"I'm smiling, really," Koo ducked his head down, chin almost meeting his collarbones.

Jimin quickly requested a video call and Koo was quicker than his hyung to decline it.

"Yah! Kookoo-ya~ I wanna see it." Jimin whined on the other side.

"hyungie, I'll call you later, please~"

"get him on the call," it was a clear-cut demand.

" Who?" Unconsciously, Koo rotated his head and peeked a glance at Taehyung. The man averted the focus of his eyes to the front faster than ever. Koo couldn't get that he was being stared at all this while.

"With whom you are going to Daegu." It seemed that Jimin was blinking his eyes rapidly as he dripped honey to Koo's ears.

"E-Eunsik hyung!" This time he sounded loud enough to be heard by both the other souls.

"Dummy baby, get your Mr.Kim on the call." A forehead slap followed.

"Oh," without turning around, Koo threw the device on Taehyung's lap, "my hyung wants to speak with you." He added in a flat voice. The visible frown and pout on his lips was another debate.
