[3 Weeks Later]


Taehyung neatly folded and creased the last box. He took the packing tape and wrapped it around the edge and opening fold, sealing it. The loud noise made him flinch.

"Done!" He announced happily.

Sangchil walked in. "Done? Good, let's load it in Jin's truck." She stacked two and headed out, Taehyung following and doing the same.

Jin pulled up by the street. He jogged out of the driver's seat and took the boxes from them. "How many do you have?" He asked.

"Four more are coming. Plus some luggage." Sangchil replied.

Jin sighed. "Honestly, I don't mind helping, but I wish you guys would just stay. I mean, like, why do you need to leave—again?"

Sangchil looked at her sad best friend. She reached out and touched his hand. "I know we're departing again, Jin. But staying here in Melbourne isn't right for me. Taehyung and I talked about this and we both think that we better go back to our home."

"What're you plans? Did you get a house? What about school?"

"We're going to rent a small apartment. It'll be the same, just a different country, Jin, that's all."

"I'll miss you." He gently punched her shoulder.

"I'm going to miss you more." She punched him back.

"Yah!" Taehyung wailed in the distance. Sangchil looked over and saw him staggering with three boxes.

"Hey! Kim Taehyung! Be careful! Those are delicate!" She ran over.

Jin bitterly smiled at them. Taehyung-ah. Please take care of her.








"To the airport! Let me check to see if I have the tickets." Taehyung quickly opened his wallet. "Got'em!"

Jin started the engine. "Then let's go."

Sangchil clicked her seatbelt in and leaned her head against the window. The bright streets of the city passed by her. Seeing the library where she first met Hanbin, seeing the bus stop where she first saw Taehyung and Jimin...

"Here." She felt something soft graze her cheek. Taehyung handed her a tissue. "Your eyes are sweating."

"They are?"

Taehyung huffed and dabbed them for her. "There. Now—don't cry anymore." He pouted. "You'll make me cry."

"We're here." Jin said.

Sangchil faced him. Her grip on her backpack tightened. "Seokjin-ah. Is it odd for me to say that I don't want to leave you?"

Jin sniffled. "N-No." His nose cheeks turned red. "B-But j-just visit lots, okay? Call and text me, facetime—whatever. Don't loose contact of me." He cried.

"Here." She held up the tissue that Taehyung gave her. "You need this more than I do."

Jin blew into it. "Thank you." He hugged her tightly. "Bye, Kwan Sangchil."

"I'll miss you, Kim Seokjin."

He pinched her cheek. "Don't eat junk too much! Don't study too hard! Make sure to rest too! Oh—and don't forget to contact me when you land!"

"I will." She waved.

Jin then grabbed Taehyung by the shoulder firmly. "Hold her. Don't let go. Even when you die, don't let go. I'm trusted you, Kim Taehyung. And I lost that trust for you when I heard that you broke her. But now I since I'm seeing her be happy with you—I guess I renewed that trust."

Taehyung firmly nodded. "Jin hyung. I love her. And the people I love, I don't let go. Trust me."

"I am." Jin said.

"We'll be going now~" Sangchil took his hand. "Seokijn~"

Jin pointed to his phone and glared at her. "Don't forget!" He yelled.

Sangchil giggled and nodded. She screamed as Hanbin appeared suddenly in front of her. Hanbin grinned. "Sangchil!"

"Holy—Hanbin! You almost made me have a heart attack!"

"I did? Wow that must be because I'm so handsome." He smiled.

Taehyung intercepted. "No! I'm the only one who can make her have a heart attack!"

Sangchil grit her teeth at him and pushed him out of sight. "So, what's up?"

Hanbin hugged her. "Keep in touch, alright? Gosh, I'm going to be a loner y'know?"

"What about Bobby?"

"That doesn't matter. Anyways have a safe flight." Hanbin placed his hand on her head. "Bye."

Sangchil shared one last smile with him. "See ya."





"Uh oh." Taehyung said. "Where's my passport? I just had it." He patted his bag. He unbuckled himself and checked the other bags.

"What do you mean? Don't you have it?" Sangchil said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we'll be taking off very shortly please buckle your seat belts."

Both of their eyes widened. "Um. Tae?"

"Found it!" He yelled and raised it in the air. "Aha!"

Sangchil let out a relieved sigh. "Good grief."

Taehyung relaxed into the seat. He turned his head towards her and took her hand. "You ready to go back home?"

She shivered. "For some reason why does that sound cheesy?"

"You know what else is cheesy?" He wiggled his eyebrows.

"What."

Taehyung leaned in close. His eyes matched up with hers, his nose almost touching hers.

"This." He breathed, Taehyung held up a bag of Cheetos. 

Sangchil rolled her eyes and pushed him away. 

"Aren't these so yummy?" He opened the bag. "Want some?"

"No thanks. I'm going to sleep." She closed her eyes.

Taehyung brought her head in so that she could lean on his shoulder. He smiled.

"Taehyung did you just wipe your fingers full of cheese dust on me?"

He giggled and licked his fingers. "Maybe."

"Yah Kim Taehyung!" Sangchil exclaimed and wiped her face with his sleeve.

"Cabin crew and passengers prepare for take off."
