~ there's a path running under the city where the stones and the hills divide there's a path we can walk through the loss and the pity ~

~ Jimin ~

"Excuse me" I turned around and found myself staring into a pair of beautiful chestnut-coloured eyes. I was floored for a moment as I couldn't help but stare at the man's obvious beauty - that was, until I saw his eyes crinkle and heard him chuckle nervously.

"Uhm...you look kind of lost there?" I mentally kicked myself for being staring so obviously and forced a (hopefully) friendly smile.

"Do I? I guess we are a bit..." I looked to my side to see Tae staring in awe at our surroundings and rolled my eyes; we had never been to a train station before and this was all new to us, though Tae was easily impressed I found the scenery to be rather dull.

"Do you need some help?" I nodded shyly, and the kind stranger walked me to a walled map showing me the connecting tunnels and the platforms that came with them.

"I'm trying to get to platform three" The man nodded and followed one of the highlighted tunnels with his index finger and my eyes followed the movement until it came to rest on a circled area.

"Right. So, we're here..." The man used his free hand to point to a marked spot.

"...and you need to be over here" He tapped the circled area a few times to emphasize and then faced me, giving me a cute smile.

"You need to take those stairs over there and follow the hallway until you see a sign for platform three...you really can't miss it" I nodded and repeated the directions in my head to make sure I wouldn't forget them - my memory was terrible.

"Thank you so much! We'd be stumbling about for hours without your help" The man laughed and brushed his fringe from his eyes, the blonde strands instantly falling back into place.

"So...you're heading to Gwangju, right?" I blinked in surprise and, out of habit, gripped my brother's hand tighter at the odd question.

"What makes you say that?" The blonde tapped the map again and shrugged his shoulders.

"I know this station like the back of my hand; platform three's train only goes to Gwangju" I loosened my grip on Tae's hand.

What, Jimin? Did you think he was a stalker or something?

"Ah, right...yeah we're going to Gwangju. We're meeting up with family" The blonde nodded and began chewing his lower lip, teeth grazing over the soft skin.

God, he must think I'm so paranoid now...

"Oh gosh I haven't even introduced myself! I'm Daniel" The blonde held out his hand and I happily took it in my own, noticing how much larger his hand was to mine.

"I'm Jimin. This is my little brother, Taehyung" Tae gave Daniel a small wave before his attention got stolen by a kid with an ice cream. I could see the craving set into his eyes and held back a groan as I knew what would come next.

"Chim...can we go over there, please?" I knew what I would find but still looked to where my brother was pointing and saw a small corner shop with an ice cream freezer under the counter. I looked back at Tae, whose eyes were glued to the freezer, and then back to Daniel.

"Not now, Tae..." Taehyung stuck his lip out in a pout and pulled on my hand.

"Jiminnn~" He whined, and I suddenly felt embarrassed. My brother was only a year younger than me, but he acted so childish sometimes. I gave Daniel a nervous chuckle and embarrassed smile.
