S2: gluten free

As the waiter came over, Yoongi tensed. His leg started to shake and Jiwoo couldn't have found it more distracting.

"Are you okay?" She asked after bumping his leg from under the table to get his attention. "It's just a sandwich dude. Calm yo tits."

Yoongi groaned inwardly "Sandwiches remind me of...Jimin.." Yoongi said sadly.

"Wait huh? Since when? I don't get it.." Jiwoo was nonetheless confused. I mean..Jimin was not an extreme sandwich eater, but I guess the fact that she made them using a specific brand of bread different that Jihyun's was the reason it reminded Yoongi of Jimin.

"Well, of how he...left...kind of.." Jiwoo gulped down her tea. She really wanted to know what happened, but then again she was afraid of that knowledge.

"Are you not even going to tell your best friend about what you both went through?"

Yoongi shook his head, preventing his mind from going back there.

No, I don't want anyone to see me cry anymore. I want to be strong.

"Here you are," the waiter says, placing their food on the table. "Would you like anything else?"

Yoongi stared at the plate in front of him, then closed his eyes and tried to picture something other than Jimin crying in a corner while clutching his stomach in pain.

"No, we're fine. Thanks." Jiwoo smiled.

"Oh, wait!" Yoongi yells catching the eyes of a few people at their tables. The waiter stops and comes back patiently. "Can I also have another one of these, but gluten free, to-go?" He says a bit quieter.

"Sure, no problem."

Yoongi took the sandwich out from the to-go box and placed it on the center of the grave stone.

"Hey you..." He sat down on the cement. "Sorry I kept you waiting for a long time."

Yoongi also had brought a bottle of soju. Since they didn't get to celebrate Jimin's birthday last time. Now he's legal everywhere.

He popped the cap and and set it next to the sandwich.

"But I don't think I'll be visiting as frequently anymore...schoolwork has piled up.."

Thin layers of fog covered the sky and became overcast. Shadows went into hiding as did the sun.

"And...I want to move on," Yoongi stated.

The sky began growing increasing gloomy and dark. Storm clouds were forming rapidly.

"There's someone that I think I might like, and he likes me, but I don't know when he's gonna come to his senses... So I have show him I'm serious too."

The wind started to pick up, moving the trees with it. Lightning accumulated and thunder sounded through the sky.

"I'm only telling you this because I know you'll want me to be happy, and want to support m- aw!"

Yoongi looked down at his hand quickly slapping the fire ant that'd bit him.

"An ant...bit me..." Yoongi was baffled. Where did an ant come from? Jin never missed a week to spray the graveyard with pesticides.

Yoongi winced again finding another ant on his arm. "What the hELL?!"

He abruptly stands when he finds them surrounding him and Jimin's grave... But strange thing is,

None of them touched the sandwich.
