Part 23 {Quarantine and tension}

February 4 2020

 Judy woke up early today for some reason. She got up and went straight to the kitchen to make the members breakfast. Lately, because of COVID-19 they had to do everyday tests and walk around the streets with mask. For Korea walking around with masks wasn't something unusual but now everyone was wearing them. With the members they kept some distance for safety reasons. 

 They started talking about living separately, not because of the virus but because they had come to an age where it would be reasonable to do so. It had been already almost 8 years that the members were living together and maybe it was time for them to start living by themselves. For Judy that was a talk she didn't really like to be part of. Judy knew that a lot of things have happened between them before she even came. Not in a bad way necessarily but it was something that they started considering more and more. She didn't want to keep them captured or anything here because she didn't want to live alone but... she didn't want to imagine waking up by herself every day instead of Jungkook barging in the door and shouting to her to wake up. She didn't want to wake up and make her own breakfast, and not because she was lazy but she loved Jin's and Yoongi's cooking. She didn't want to go to the gym on Thursdays alone instead of going with Namjoon. She didn't want to not hear Jimin's complaining about leaving all her clothes outside of the closet. She didn't want to not be able to steal Hoseok's clothes and not tell him about it. And she didn't want to walk by herself on the side of Han river without Taehyung. 

 They had become part of her everyday routine. She had gotten used to their presence so much that she didn't want to separate from them. Korea was them and it would take her some time to get used to living by herself in Korea. They were getting ready for a tour while also making an album. So of course they would be together all the time. And sometimes in the tours the shared a hotel room. But she had a bad feeling about that virus from China, it was spreading very fast in Korea and the whole entire world, that so called COVID-19. Yesterday she heard that the Korean government wanted to put Korea under quarantine. That meant that the members and her couldn't make it to the tour and they couldn't go out of their dormitory. Plus she couldn't leave Korea and go back to America. 

"What are you thinking so much of?" Hoseok tapped her on her shoulder taking her out of her train of thoughts. 

"Not much really. About the quarantine and stuff." 

"Well we are not sure that the quarantine will happen. It might not." Hoseok said.

"I don't think so Hobi." 

"Positive thinking Judy!" He chuckled and patted her once again on the shoulder and went to make himself a coffee. She continued making breakfast for the members while still thinking. 

 The comfort that those seven boys provided for her was way different from anything she had ever felt. Unfortunately the boys had decided that they would move out. Some members had already found a place to live. She had overheard their conversation yesterday when she went to sleep. They wanted to tell her today. So the talk that she so much avoided was finally happening today. She prepared the breakfast and went to wake up each member. Once she did that she changed washed herself and left. She headed to HYBE. Whenever she was overthinking dancing was the only thing that helped her move on and clear her head. She entered a dancing room and connected her phone with the speakers. 

 Three hours later 

 "Judy!" Jimin walked in without knocking and startling her. 

"Jimin! Knocking is good you know?" Judy said while holding her chest. 

"Yeah, yeah. The breakfast was really good. We all loved it. But why did you leave so early?"
