He handed her the thing she was trying to reach just now and shuffled his feet. Nervousness pooled in his stomach and slithered upwards until it reached his chest.
From the look on Seung's face, she felt the same. Except, the only thing different was her appearance. She looked worn out and haggard; she looked nothing like she did in the past, not even the way she appeared on her posters/album covers.
Wasn't her music career going well? The last he heard she had just completed a European tour and had returned to Korea - he wasn't expecting her to come back to their hometown, though.
It was a surprise... A good one.
"It's nice to see you again, Yoon." The old nickname she used to call him rolled off her tongue, and the nostalgia poured out of her and surrounded Yoongi, who felt the tears welling up.
"You too, Seung."
They stood there for an awkward minute and then Seung placed the item in her basket, before opening her mouth as though she was going to say something. However, nothing could get past the lump in her throat.
"I have to go." She avoided his gaze and then rushed past him towards the cashier.
Yoongi was left standing there not knowing what to do, and then he snapped out of it and got his phone from his bag. He dialled a number and waited for the person to answer his call.
*Hey, it's your sunshine here! Leave a message after the beep *beep**.
Yoongi sighed and left a message saying he couldn't make it to practice today, because of personal reasons. He then put back his items and went out of the shop. He just wanted to head home and forget about meeting her again.

Jhope, Taehyung, Jungkook and the rest of the guys chatted happily along the pathway, as they made their way to Yoongi's apartment. After Jhope had listened to Yoongi's message, they had cancelled practice and decided to check on him. They could hear the unhappiness in his voice and were worried about what might have made him that way.
So here they now stood outside his door and they could hear the sad music coming from inside. They all exchanged glances and Jhope took it upon himself to knock the door. They heard soft footfalls and then the door opened, revealing a wretched-looking Yoongi. His face was pale and downcast and his clothes were in disarray. They knew he had been in a bad way since Seung had left, but this was worse... Way worse.
Yoongi collapsed on the sofa and retreated into his blanket fort, that he had made himself. He wrapped himself up and refused to look at any of the other males, who all had the same expression on their faces - concern.
Namjoon sat near Yoongi's feet and asked, "what's wrong?"
"She's back," he said, barely above a whisper.
"Huh?"
"I said she's back!"
