Jimin's perspective

"Hello?" I spoke in a softer tone than before, holding my cellphone tight hoping to get an answer quick; but the phone said nothing. I could only hear a breathing sound from the other side. "Is this Sora?" I asked.

"Ye-yes..." She stuttered. Her voice soften my ears and I let out a sigh of relieved. I was about to say something until I heard Yoongi's background noises from the phone; it seemed like they're going somewhere.

"You already have plans today?" I asked knowing the answer.

"Yeah, only a short one though. Is there something you need...from me?" her voice came down to a whisper.

I giggled, "Oui, an important one at that". I could hear her gasped and imagining her panicking and feeling guilty. A soft smile appeared on my face, silly me. "What time are you free?"

"Around 4 pm until whenever"

"Got it. I'll text you then" I hanged up as we already make an appointment with each other. I sat down and put on my shoes. As I stood and opened the door, I took a one more glance back at our old house where Yoel is still sleeping so soundly, after a minute, I slowly closed the door.

Sora's perspective

Me and Yoongi planned to go to a police station. We're not in trouble or something, we want to clarify something crucial. We...are stuck in a traffic jam where an accident happened just 500m in front of us.

"Fuck" Yoongi hit his thigh and tightened his eyebrows.

"Watch your words" I sighed.

"Shut up. Who was that just now? Jimin? Are you meeting him?" He ambushed me with multiple questions while I'm having a headache.

"Yes we are" I looked at the clock that says 2:33 pm. I won't have enough time. Discussing with the police itself will take more than one hour plus the time we go back to our apartment. Yoongi decided to call on his appointment because the time won't wait for us. I stared through the window wondering what Jimin wants to talk to me about. Last week where I was found in the rain? Maybe that, or something else. I blushed remembering his warm presence beside me. Yeah, I thought, I love him. I want to tell him that but I am scared.

I heard a thump and Yoongi made a sharp turn abruptly. I hold on to my seat belt and yelped. "Ah! What about the police? What are you doing?!" I yelled as he sped up, "Be careful don't get a speeding ticket!" I nagged again. Yoongi remained silent and drove quickly.

"Where are you guys meeting up?" Yoongi switched gears.

"Who?"

"You and Jimin"

"Uh..." With rush, I went through my text, "Byu-Byunghan District"

"What's up with you guys and that place? You know what kind of place that is right? Normal people would like to avoid it but you guys keep coming there!" Yoongi huffed without taking his eyes off the road. I nodded quietly while still tightly holding my seat belt.

"I guess, it's the place where I kept being saved by him" I mumbled to myself with a grin. In no time, we arrived at the gate of Byunghan District. I got out of the car and bent down to talk to Yoongi. "So what's your plan?"I asked.

"You..." He inhaled, "...have a long nice talk with Jimin. I'll go to the police alone" He smiled faintly which I never saw him does that. I bowed and thanked as I watched him going away with his car. I accelerated to the promised cafe where we supposed to meet each other. I looked at the time that says 3:50 pm. I still have time but again, I don't want to be late with this meeting; especially with the guy I like.
