BTS: HYYH The Notes (Complete ENG)

Jungkook

30 September Year 20

"Jeon Jungkook. You're not still going there, are you?" I didn't answer. I just stood there staring at the toes of my shoes. When I didn't answer, he hit me on the head with the attendance file. But even so, I didn't open my mouth. It was the classroom that me and the hyungs used to go and hang out. After the day I started following them around, we discovered that classroom. There wasn't a single day I hadn't gone there. Maybe the hyungs didn't know. Sometimes they didn't come because they had other plans or were busy with part-time jobs. I hadn't seen either Seokjin hyung or Yoongi hyung in a few days. But not me. I didn't skip a single day. There were days when nobody came at all. But that's okay. Even if it wasn't today, then they would come tomorrow, and if not tomorrow then the day after. It was okay.

"You only learned bad things following them around." He hit me again. I lifted my gaze and looked at him. He hit me again. The image came to me of Yoongi hyung hitting me. I gritted my teeth and endured. I didn't want to lie and say I hadn't been going.

Now I was standing again in front of that classroom. It seemed like the hyungs would be there if I opened the door. It seemed like they would look up from the fame they were playing and ask me why I was so late. Seokjin hyung and Namjoon hyung would be reading books, Yoongi hyung would be playing the piano, and Hoseok hyung and Jimin hyung would be dancing.

But when I opened the door, only Hoseok hyung was there. He was cleaning up the things we had left behind in the classroom. I held the door handle and just stood there. Hyung came over and put his arm around my shoulders. Then he led me outside. "Let's go." The classroom door closed behind us. I suddenly realized, those days were gone and they would never return.
