"Thanks for coming, Celes"

"I had to battle him to come" I said, looking at Jimin who was least bothered to even hear. "Let's go. He was nice to you right, how did it go? What did they ask?" I started bombarding the tired girl.

"Maybe another times Celes, I feel really heavy now"

"That's okay Minrae, take your time and make sure you call me if you need anything, okay?" I said, patting her shoulder, worried. Jimin opened his cars door and signaled Minare to get in and as soon as she did, he slammed the door right at me, glaring.

"Go back the way you came here"

"I was going to anyways, Park Jimin" I said, while he smiled, eyeing me like a weakling. I clutched my hands into a fist in front of his eyes, staring at it and his face, constantly. Jimin's eyes worried, looking at me and then my fist with yet another expression.

Quickly I aimed it at him and launched my fist to his face. His first action was to flinch, blocking my attack with his hands that crossed against each other, protecting his face.

I smiled, with a hell lot of humor.

Seeing him helpless made a quick score on my face while I slid back my hand into my pockets.

"Bye, Park coward Jimin"

With that, I left the boy with Minare and Jin. Suga waited for me next to his car, looking at his watch, tapping his feet in hurry. "Get in fast! I'll be dead if I don't make it for the family dinner, it's literally nine" we couldn't see her until the questioning was over and that pretty much took a lot of hours.

"You can go. My house is just three streets away, I'll walk myself"

"Didn't Harin tell you what happened to her last time? Why don't you ever learn!"

"Because, I'm arrogant, there, you got your answer, now just go before you die"

"It's not safe Celestia. We still live in the same city"

I waved my hands at him with my back facing him, walking away, botherless.

The night sky was not something new. It's the same stars, the same breeze, nothing has changed since then. Years have passed and everybody's still the same. Even though the boys changed, they are still the same in many ways. Well, at least Jimin remembers to stay away from my fist.

I guess it was when we were five. The girls and I were playing and this boy shows up in between, acting all cool and cold. He was messing around with Minrae and I couldn't stand him then. Well, that was when he experienced his first ever punch, and my first ever victory. Mhan, I was happy.

We all have come a long way from when we were young, and nothing has changed I believe.

I was walking with my head lowered down and a hoodie on. The street lights were on, radiating a yellow glow on the ground while I kept looking at my shadow that was formed in front of me.

'Why do I look so small?'

"I'm the tallest in the group shadow, give me some respect buddy" I said, laughing it away. Not caring much I walked further, my house just a few miles from now. I could hear my footsteps clear and I was somehow enjoying this silence. Feeling tired, I stopped for a minute. But I was more than confident that I heard a step more.

'It wasn't me'

Concluding that I was just over thinking, I decided to just walk. But this time I felt a shadow, not mine, getting closer to me.
