He stood at a crossroads and wasn't sure which way to choose as the right one. He was torn between going back to the hospital or going somewhere far away to clear his head.

Going back to the hospital was a bad idea as he didn't want to be near Sunhee whilst he was like this. And going somewhere to clear his head would give him a chance to recollect himself.

As he stood at the crossing, it felt as though everyone else was in fast-forward; they were all heading somewhere whilst he was heading nowhere. His head was so messed up right now and he had no one to turn to. His friends do not understand what he's going through - what Sunhee is going through. They could be there to comfort him, they could attempt to fix him, but he just wanted to talk to someone who could understand.

"Jungkookie," a soft voice said from beside him. He kept his eyes forward, refusing to look in her direction. "It's fine. You don't have to talk to me, but just know that I'm here."

He nodded his head slightly and started walking when the lights changed, allowing him to cross the road. He pulled his hood lower and placed his hands in his jacket pockets. Right now he was giving off an unapproachable aura, and he was glad for that.

"Where are you going?" Sunhee asked curiously. "It's almost 9pm, shouldn't you be going back to the dorm? It is nice at night though. It's so peaceful and all the lights look so pretty."

She fell into silence when she noticed how the sparkly lights from before started to dim and the streets changed to something even darker, as they entered the dangerous side of town. "Hm, why are we here again? Don't you remember what happened before?"

Jungkook continued to ignore her and involuntarily led her to the woods that bordered the town. Pushing aside the branches and despite knowing that Sunhee could just pass through them with no trouble, he allowed her to go first.

He then traipsed along the path they had gone down many times before until he came to an opening. It led out to an abandoned skatepark and a ramshackle building next to it.

Sunhee then realised where they were and smiled at the fond memories. So many days and nights they had spent here with just them, or with the other members of Bts, hanging out and being typical teenagers. Then they had gotten older and Bts were gaining more popularity, meaning their schedules were fuller than ever before.

"What are we doing here?"

Jungkook finally spoke to her, "I'm looking for something."

"What?"

Jungkook went to the building and pulled open the door. He bypassed the old sofa and went over to an assortment of boxes, rummaging through them until he found what he was looking for.

He collapsed onto the sofa and coughed when dust rose into the air. Sunhee stood behind him and peered over his shoulder. In his hands was a camcorder. "This used to be Jin's. Do you remember?"
