You wake up on the bank of a river, seeing nothing but a purple backpack besides you. You remember nothing. When you pull out the photos in your backpack, you suddenly start getting memories of you with your love. Where are the places you will go?
"Please, this is what I have been looking forward to since we came here," Taehyung begged.
How could I object to his puppy-eyed plead? "Fine," I consented, "but just remember this: if I die, my death will be in your hands."
"C'mon Amber, you won't die. There is safety gear to make sure you don't fall freely without any gear. Even if you fell, there would be a giant pillow on the bottom to catch you so the worst that would happen to you is that you would be traumatized."
We went over the terms of agreement to the Tandem SkyJump, which had the both of us go together because there was absolutely no way that I was going alone. Before we went, I took my camera and peered over the edge of the tower. It was both terrifying and captivating. I felt my knees turn into Jello and I turned away and hugged onto Taehyung's shirt for dear life. I looked at him and said, "How did you even convince me to jump off of the Macau Tower, the highest bungee jump in the world when I haven't even bungee jumped in a low place?" I demanded.
When it was our turn to jump, I determined to go and quickly get this over. "Fall downwards with your body vertical on three. One, two three!"
I slowly lead forwards. My heart was a drum.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
The sound of my heart pumped in my ears until it was washed out by the sound of winding whooshing in my ears. While I heard Taehyung yelling, I speechless from elation by this weightlessness. I felt free, like an eagle, soaring through the beautiful sky of Macau. I had a grin glued to my face, refusing to come off until we were at the pillow on the bottom of the tower.
"Thank you so much! Thank you so much!" I babbled. Taehyung had a superior smile on his face when seeing my happiness. I floated to him and collapsed into his arms, thanking him for the most thrilling experience in my life.
The tingle of adventure remained in my chest. I felt so energetic, but there was only one Polaroid remaining. I take a look at it. Unlike the only pictures, this one doesn't have much of a fancy background, but a tug in my heart suggests that this is a lot more valuable than the other photos. Its a picture of Taehyung and I, foreheads touching on a bridge, the sun shining between our heads. The picture fills my chest with love and pain and I am split between those two feelings as I fade away...

This part was inspired by Monsta X's bungee jump in Macau where Kihyun, Shownu, and Wonho jumped in the Right Now video series, which i finished in three days XD. It was super funny to me when Wonho was acting so confident and then he kept calling EOMMAAAA!! right before he jumped.
Sigh, the picture above of Taetae jumping off the bridge reminds me of old memories when I first got into BTS and started sobbing on all of the videos. To be honest, I think that kpop music videos were the first time when I actually thought deeply about something...hmmm...
anyways, please still pray for Wonho's recovery and for him to be healthy because I'm really worried for him
