"Why do you need this again?"

"I've already told you a million times, Taehyung,"

"Yes, you sure have. And every time you tell me your reasons get a little less convincing,"

"You can be really snarky sometimes, you know that?"

"You love it,"

"I do,"

"So, tell me one more time then I'll leave it alone for good, okay?"

"I already told you! I think I'm sleep walking, and I just want to know for sure. I'm going to buy this camera and set it up in the corner of my room at night, that way I can watch it and see what's going on,"

"Aren't you afraid of seeing a ghost or something instead?"

"Taehyung! There are no such things as ghosts,"

"How would you know if you've never seen one before!?"

"Alright, good point. Now can we focus? How about this one,"

"They all look the same to me,"

"You're right. I don't know what I'm doing. Let's just get this one and go set this up,"

"You know what else we can do with that camera?"

"I don't know...start a YouTube channel?"

"Or...something a little more dirtier,"

"Yah! Taehyung! You're making me blush,"

"It's so cute,"

"Let me use this for the right reasons first! Such a mind you have sometimes..."

"Okay so tell me, what are you hoping to see when you sleep walk?"

"Remember when my apartment was really clean that day when you checked the mirror for me?"

"Yeah..."

"Taehyung, I didn't do that, okay? At least, I don't remember doing it,"

"What! Why didn't you say anything?"

"Because I was already riding the crazy train that day, I didn't want there to be any other issues piling up,"

"What else has happened?"

"Just some other things like my food vanishing or things not being in the same place. I know what it sounds like coming from someone like me. I know what you are thinking,"

"And what am I thinking exactly?"

"You're thinking that I'm just loosing time and not remembering because of my pills, or disassociating or something else that complements my disorders. But this is just a doubly way for me to make sure, alright? If I can just have at least one symptom in my life that doesn't revolve around the insanity in my head then I'll be happy,"

"Are you sure this doesn't have anything to do with what happened the week before?"

"With what?"

"You know...with the mirror...and what you saw..."

"N-no,"

"Jimin, don't lie to me,"

"I'm not!"

"Okay, whatever,"

"Taehyung please don't be like this. I understand it's weird,"

"I'm used to you being weird. And I'm sorry, I don't mean to snap like that. I just want you to be safe in your home. You've been doing so well lately and sometimes I don't know whether or not I should be encouraging this type of stuff or not,"

"Let me do this, and if nothing comes up on my camera then I'll bring it up to my therapist at my next session. Is that fair?"

"That's fair,"

"Thank you for understanding,"

"I'm trying,"
