without them, I became nothing. With them, I became something. I give my thanks to the ones who made me what I am today; to the ones with the lost and regained childhoods.

The dark blurred out silhouette got closer to me as I watched it my eyes slowly dropping from the pain in my head. Who could it be?

When I blinked again, someone was in front of me, kneeling with a curious look. It was the boy I had met a couple of days ago, the one who had squeaked out for no reason. He was holding hands with the same Taehyung I had saved. The one that was apparently dead. The longer I stared at Taehyung, the more my sobs grew, and the pain in my chest spread throughout my whole body. I was so lost all I did was the cry.

"I-I don't understand! You died! You're dead, Taehyung. I thought I saved you, but it was all an illusion! Why? Why me?"

He quickly dragged me with him, telling me that it wasn't safe at all.

The other boy, who Lee-Xeng still had to know as Jungkook, let go of Taehyung's hand and went with Taeyong. He was there with the boy who wore black hoodies at school surrounded by a couple of other unfamiliar faces.

"This world, this world is the world that lies between two other worlds. We just linger here until we have to go. Afterlife isn't just as mythical as it sounds, Lee-Xeng. It's the next step to any life out there."

I was dumbfounded. Still confused out of my mind. What the heck did he mean? What did I have to do will afterlife?

"But me, why me? What do I have to do with all of this!"

Taehyung pouted lamely in response to my panic.

"Well, you're one of us, silly."

That's when I felt everything around me crash. What did they mean?.. was I.. dead too?...

Taehyung gave a rather sarcastic giggle before moving from his current spot to right where I stood standing now face-to-face with me.

"What, you thought you were still living? We're all here for that one reason.."

The more he spoke, the more I felt my body turn weak and impotent.

"What's that reason..?"

Taehyung purses his lips and helped me up slowly from the ground. My body felt too light, almost like I was sleeping. I followed behind quietly as he took me to the rest of the boys.
