To Busan and Back || YoonMin

-Chapter 22-

JAKE STOP READING MY STUFF

-Yoongi POV-

We went to school that day, for the first time since I came to Busan. It was less rough and crowded than my old one, but comfortable in a way. I tried not to get used to it, although I appreciated my brother's kind words and encouragement.

Ravi was my favorite out of all of them. Shy yet playful, never giving much away. He wasn't like any of my old friends, yet I felt the most like myself around him. I missed being Yoongi, but Suga had to put up a barrier for the good of everyone, mostly myself.

But soon it would be over. A tug pulled at my heart, as I thought about Jimin. I just hoped he missed me as much as I missed him. I smiled happily - because I would return to my love again today - and walked down the new hallways.

Halfway through 4th period, I stood up abruptly and walked over to the teacher. He seemed surprised by the rudeness, after all he was my hyung. I bowed, trying to maintain my respectful nature. "Yes Lee Suga?"

We (my Busan family) decided to use the family name "Lee" because Hongbin's family name was Lee. Ravi's was Kim, but that would hit too close to my old friend Kim Taehyung, and Leo's was Jung, which of course reminded me of Jung Hoseok.

My family has different family names because when we were about 6, we (my brothers and I) were split up because it was too much work to take care of all of us. My mother was the original who made my brothers and I - luckily I was chosen to stay with her. I also stayed with my dad, but he was gone so often it didn't make a difference.

Hongbin, Leo, and Ravi went to adoption families until all of their foster families died while their city burned down. After that, they stayed with my uncle - who stayed at Daegu at the time - but since he was out so much, a perfect opportunity to join Hoseok's group of thugs fell in place.

When Ravi and I were alone during the weekend, for once he opened about his personal life. I found out about Hoseok and what they all did to Jimin and Jungkook. I admit - I was a bit mad. But Ravi had not done anything to them, which made me love him even more as a brother.

Hongbin and Leo were on the other side though. Hongbin hurt Jungkook, and Leo sorta did. None of them laid a hand on Jimin, although I doubt he got out unscarred after that day where I saw him, cuts and bruises lining his pale body.

"Sun-seng nim, may I leave to go to the bathroom?" It was in action. The tickets for the train were clutched in my right hand, covered by my long sleeves.

He nodded and went back to teaching as I exited through the door. "Don't take too long," he called out after me.

"Yes!" Only he didn't know I never would come back.

On the way to the front door of the school, I stopped suddenly. Something hit my back, and a thud followed closely. "Umff!" I turned over, also gasping as I saw it was a girl who seemed to be following me. Reaching out my hand to help her up, I looked at her shock struck face.

Black hair curved around her cheeks and down to her shoulders and stopped half-way down her spine. Pants came out of her perfect lips and her amber eyes were wide and frantic. Astonished by her beauty, I tried to keep a straight face, but I felt my cheeks heating up.

She took my hand, her's was warm and soft, and pulled herself up. "W-Where are you g-going," she gasped.

"Why do you care?"

"Kim Ji-Soo," she held out her hand. "I like you."

"You must have the wrong person, now I really must be going," I said, pulling away to run out the door.

"Stop!" Jisoo called out and grabbed my wrist. I yanked my hand away and turned again to leave. "Ya! Stop leaving!"

Her face was red with anger, and her hair bounced everywhere as she walked up to me. She pointed her finger in my face. She was really cute.

"Yes?"

"Don't give me that sass, young man!" Jisoo yelled at me.

"Sorry ma'am~"

She frowned and fiddled with her fingers. "Please don't leave."

"What do you mean? I don't even know you!"

"Yes you do! Eight years ago. Please tell me it wasn't for nothing!"

"How am I supposed to remember-"

She pulled out a butterfly-shaped locket and shushed me. Then reaching into my pocket, she took out the same locket. How did that get there? I wondered.

Jisoo clicked them both open and within them lay a picture. In mine, it was one of this young girl with black hair and the same blushing face as Jisoo. And in her's...was my picture.

"Wha-?" She hushed me again.

"Don't you realize? I don't want you to leave me again!" Tears were lining her amber eyes. "Please, Min Yoon-Gi!"

"I won't Kim Ji-Soo."

-Yoongi Memory-

"Yoongi-ah! You haven't been coming to my house lately, what's wrong?"

She saw the boxes around my house. "Jisoo..." I said tentatively.

"Where are Ravi, Hongbin, and Leo?" Jisoo rushed upstairs to check on them.

I took her hand. "They're g-gone.." I choked on my own words. No six year old should have to go through this pain.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm moving to Daegu.. With my mom and dad.. My brothers..they-" I couldn't finish my sentence without tears falling down my face and my throat clogging up.

She pulled me in for a hug. "Be safe, Yoongi.."

"You don't understand," I coughed, spluttering up spit and tears that fell into my mouth. "I will never see you again."

Jisoo took my hands and placed something in it. It was a butterfly-shaped locket. "We will meet someday." She smiled, although tears trickled down her cheeks as well.

She had the same locket as mine, the chain dangling out of her pocket. "I won't forget you, Min Yoon-Gi. Please don't forget me."

"I won't Kim Ji-Soo."
