Chapter 18

Min was confused when Seokjin suddenly popped up before him. Messy hair, sweaty and out of breath. He had been running and he wondered why the rush.

It was only when Seokjin explained to him that he had met Taehyung and the details of their conversation that he got the answer to his question.

They were trying to figure out a way to solve the problem. They wanted to make sure both Namjoon and you were safe. The thing that they didn't expect was that Namjoon heard everything and now the entire thing just became more messed up.

You noticed that your brother had been paying extra attention to you. He had always been protective but these days the amount just seemed to have doubled or even tripled. He asked you how you were feeling every 30 minutes and watched your every move. When you asked if something was wrong, he would just say he was curious.

Another strange thing was that it had almost been a week since you've heard Namjoon playing a flute. It just felt so strange and when you went to visit him, he's not there. You would find Min who would awkwardly be there to tell you that he was just busy and had something to do. You had a feeling that Namjoon was avoiding you and you hoped it's not.

You groaned and laid your head on the table. You had been getting enough sleep since there was no flute sound but it just felt so weird and you just feel like something's missing. And you didn't like the fact that you hadn't seen Namjoon at all.

Everyday went on as usual. You had school then you head home to have dinner with your brother and end the day. On Saturdays, you would either hang out with Jimin or just stay at home and watch movies. On Sundays, you would help out at Hoseok. It was the same as before. Before you met Namjoon. But now you felt empty and lonely. And you would end up stopping by his house only to know that he's not there.

You wondered where he could be. He was nowhere found in the neighbourhood as well. There wasn't any updates on the net either. All options of reaching him was out.

••••••••••••••••••<>••••••••••••••••••

Days went on just like that and you spent it like you normally would. Expect that you would have Namjoon at the back of your mind. Hoping to see him along the way or something. But that didn't happen at all.

You were starting to get worried. You hoped that nothing had happened to him.

You woke up to another normal day except that it was a Saturday. Jimin dropped by to ask if you were okay and whether you wanted to hang out but you declined him politely once again.

You started to go out less often and sometimes didn't even go to Hoseok's cafe. Ate less. Slept less.

You headed to the kitchen as you craved for some soda. You opened the fridge but found none. Seokjin had forgotten to stock it up.

You let out a sigh and decided to head off to the nearest convenience store to buy some since you had nothing better to do anyways. You went up to get changed and grabbed your wallet before heading down again to leave.

You walked down the pavement which led to the store. You entered the place and went to the drinks section. You added what you wanted in your basket and went down the aisle. There you spotted yoghurts. A smile immediately creeped on your face as you thought of Namjoon buying you those and face masks before. You added those as well and went to the cashier.

You stepped out, carrying bags in your hand.
