I blink a few times. Trying to readjust my eyes to the darkness. Clutching my arms I begin to shiver. Suddenly feeling the extremely cold temperature of the room.

Slowly and unsteadily I make my way to my feet. Walking tiredly around searching for something. Bumping against walls and such as i walk.

Just trying to ignore the sudden pain stinging my face. Cold bursts of air hitting my face repeatedly.

Until finally I find what I had been looking for. I swiftly rip the cover from the wall to reveal a small slit.

A place where they had failed. Something they didn't plan for. A malfunction.

A beam of light flashes into the room. I crouch down. Staring out at the grassy field. Blinking rapidly at the new lighting.

My heart races as I stare out. Suddenly feeling a pang of joy.
Then longing.
Then sadness.

As a small boy and his mother, it seems, run down a large hill. Stopping midway and laughing before having a seat. Sitting down side by side and taking in eachother's hands. Slowly sliding down. Smiling widely before standing and running off.

My gaze is suddenly turned towards a boy. His gray hair flying gently in the wind. Blowing across his eyes which are squinted in focus. Writing something in some sort of book.

I smile subcontiously as I watch him. The boy a new experience.

My lack of human contact over the years.
Or my lack of seeing humans over the years has made even the idea of viewing such a person magical in a sense.

The boy eventually closes and puts away the book along with the pen he once held. He hesitates before standing and admiring the area.

The bright grass and the colorful flowers.
Those of which I missed the most.

Suddenly his eyes dart over to where I am sat. I nervously glance around at his surroundings before resting my eyes back on him.

I smile weakly as he looks in curiosity. Cocking his head in awe trying to figure out who I am. And what this strange building was.

The mysterious building nobody knew anything about. Except for the few people on the inside.

He eventually smiles back and waves. I raise my hand to wave as well but am stopped.

Suddenly being grabbed by behind. Large hands pulling at my arms as I struggle furiously. Screaming and kicking as I am dragged from the room.

Tears now beginning to stream down my face. And as I am pulled from the window. Myself wishing desperately to be like that boy. I see his face.

An expression of pure horror. Himself jumping forward and racing to the building.

But his feet don't move fast enough. For before he can even get within twenty feet of my hell. I am already gone.

-

I look up to see a small window like section of the mysterious building. One of which my parents and everybody else in this far too perfect town knew nothing of.

Even though everybody knew it existed. Just not what happened inside.

I saw a small boy sitting there. Weakly smiling. Staring at me in awe as if he had never seen a human being in his entire life.

He is weak. His face skinny and pale. Seeming like he hadn't been in the sun for years. His eyes are dull and lifeless. And the faded black hair falls around his face.

Oily and tangled. Sticking out in every direction.

Who is he?

I tilt my head. Trying to imagine his life. What happens in that building. What happens to make a beautiful young being look this way.

I raise my hand to wave. Finally giving up on all of the thoughts and just thinking of making him smile again. His shoulder moves as he attempts to wave back.

But is suddenly grabbed. A muscular hand wrapped around his waist pulling him from the window.

Tears falling down his face. Looking at me with a certain expression. As if begging for help with his eyes.

I sprint across the grass. Trying with all of my strength to make it.

To save him.

Even though I know nothing about him. But he looked so pained. Like he really was suffering. And it seemed to me that he didn't deserve it.

I heard a faint scream. Almost to the small place where I had seen him.

"Wait! I'm coming!" I yell. But it does no use. Because by the time I make it to the boy. There isn't one. He is gone. Leaving an empty room.

The door wide open revealing only a dark colored wall. I look around. Trying to discover anything about the boy. Except for the fact that he is worn out. But as I look around I find nothing. Not even a light.

I sigh walking away from the building. Heading back in the direction of my shared home.

The home of which is a deserted laundry mat. The one we inherited from the eldest's parents. They felt the need to retire and left the store to us.

Not expecting their son to continue the business as he hated doing laundry. But it was ideal considering its ideal size and layout.

The multiple rooms and strange kitchen an easy project.

-

"I'm home!" I said unenthusiastically. I heard pounding footsteps from the area deemed the living room. Coming closer, louder, with each step.

"Hyung!" Kookie says nearly knocking me over. I roll my eyes but smile at the youngest's happy nature. But then again, everyone had a happy nature.

I peeled the boy off of me and walked tiredly into the living area. Seeing most of the others sprawled on the couches or floor watching some movie.

I wave at them and Jungkook plops down next to Taehyung. Snuggling into his side before refocusing to the film.

I wander into the kitchen to find the eldest. He is hovering over the stove stirring something.

He glances back to find a missing ingredient but instead finds me.

"Hey Yoongs." I frown at the nickname which in turn brings a small laugh from the older boy. My face softens at his cute intentions. Forcing a small smile from myself.

He eventually turns back to the stove and adds a few things while continuing to cook. His full focus now on the dish before him.

I hesitate leaving for a moment. Strangely feeling the need to tell him everything right here and now. But I can only bring my self to spit out a few words.

"Hyung, we need to talk." He nods slowly. As though afraid of what I have to say.

"Okay."

Here ya go 😊

Hope you enjoyed chapter two

Q: Who is your BTS bias?

A: Mine is Min Yoongi aka Suga aka Agust D.

The reasoning is simply that he appealed to me and was the first member I was able to differentiate from the others.

Not only that but I love his personality and hard working attitude.

Not to mention how he slays everyone with his (underrated) dancing and amazing rapping skills.

Not to mention all of the work he puts into their songs.

And the fact that we are literally the same (including the gummy smile) and the fact that he can go from super savage and a complete beast to a lil meow meow in seconds

Anyways that's enough 😂
I swear I could write a book about why he is my bias XD
