The cold wind blows swirling around the leaves. The branches swayed with full rhythm with the wind.

5 o'clock in the morning and Taehyung woke up from his slumber.

He skirted his eyes in the corners of the room. He looked where he sat. It was a bed.

Why am I on the bed? What happened?, Taehyung questioned himself.

He looked at the other bed where Jimin was sleeping soundly.

"Did Jungkook and Jimin went home?" He asked himself quietly, stood up and headed to the kitchen.

He drank some water, letting his mouth wet from drying.

He tried to remember what happened yesterday. He only remembered Jimin, Hoseok and him going in the mall then after that, its clouded. Even if he thought hard, only he could think was nothing.

He picked a mug and sought something on his pocket. It's a coffee packet he bought yesterday that he forgot to drink. As he sought it, a lighter fell off from his pocket. It was his lighter he used yesterday. And with that, all the memories rushed in his mind, dropping the mug from his hands and the glass shards shattered loudly in the tiled-floor.

That sound made Jimin woke up. He rubbed his eyes and yawned loudly. He looked at the bed beside his. It was already empty.

Huh? Taehyung?,Jimin asked himself.

He stood up and headed to the source of the sound. Jungkook and Hoseok still sound asleep in the other room of the apartment.

Jimin deranged his hair. "Hey! Its so early...  what happened?" He said, rubbing his eyes again as he was still sleepy.

Taehyung looked and then came forward to Jimin. He touched Jimin's shoulder which made him narrowed his eyes, shocked from what he did.

"Wait! D-Did I do that a-again?!" Taehyung asked worriedly.

Jimin put down his hands slowly. "Again? Why? What did you do?" He asked him suspiciously, expecting for a direct answer from him.

Taehyung looked down and get his lighter in the floor. Jimin noticed the lighter but he did his best to hide his suspicion. He acted like he didnt saw it. His suspicion grew bigger from before. Perhaps, Hoseok's conclusion is correct? They didnt know yet but soon maybe. Maybe Taehyung finally confesses about it but when?

"N-nothing... Want some coffee?" He stammered in between his sentence. Jimin nodded and smiled, quirking the corners of his lips upward.

"Sure. Since when did you started to become a barista?" Jimin joked which made Taehyung giggled in response.

"No I am not a barista. Actually, I didnt like coffee since I am a child," he paused. Jimin narrowed his eyes.

"진짜요?" Jimin asked, shooked from what he heard.

Taehyung nodded. "네. It was not a long time ago when I finally decided to try it. And I think, its good so yeah..." he explained. Jimin nodded in response. Taehyung started to round up the glass shards scattered in the floor. Jimin helped him with it. As soon as they put the glass shards in the trash can intended for it, Taehyung made 2 coffees. One for him and one for Jimin. Both coffees are caramel macchiato.

Jimin sipped at his coffee and then he widened his eyes. "Woah! The taste is good! Its delicious!" He complimented the taste.

Taehyung looked at him. "You think so? I thought I made it bitter..."

"Nah. Its delicious for someone new to coffees. Are you really sure that you didnt actually like coffee? Dude. Seriously, this taste, its like you're having coffee since you were a kid! Even I dont know how to mix a delicious coffee in my entire life! I used to buy coffee..."

Taehyung shrugged, sipping one sip from the coffee. "I dont like coffee. For some reason, I have to try it in order to survive and I think I kinda used to the taste," he said undoubtedly.

Jimin secretly frowned. "In order to survive? For what? First, the lighter. Then this? Man, this is going crazy. Something is fishy and I can smell it. 미치겠다!" He said on his mind, sipping another one from his coffee and smiled brightly, showing his famous eye smiles.

(미치겠다 - michigettda means 'I am going crazy')

"I'll buy some food outside for our breakfast. Wanna come?" Jimin invited Taehyung.

Taehyung raised his hand. "No. I think I'll pass. 미안해요..." he said apologetically.

Jimin hummed and nodded. "Okay. Please look after the house and tell Jungkook and Hobi that I'll buy food outside if ever they wake up when I am not around. Oh well, thanks for the coffee by the way..." he said as he finished his coffee and placed it in the sink. He then headed to his cabinet and get a coat. He'll use it to protect his body from the cold wind outside. "I'll go ahead now!" He shouted softly, reminding Taehyung that he already took his leave.

Jimin placed his both hands to the pockets of his coat. It was so cold. The temperature was about 15° celsius and its freezing. Its not even winter yet.

Jimin thought about Taehyung as he walked slowly in the streets towards to the store he usually buys food.

This is crazy. All the conclusions Hoseok concluded is somewhat true?... Wait... Maybe Taehyung has reasons behind it. Or maybe it isnt him who did it? I'm kinda confused here. The lighter... It has 'SK' engraved in it. What does that mean? And why did he have it? Its not common for people to bring lighters, right? And he said somethings that were weird. Like he didnt do it and it wasnt his intention and earlier he said, he didnt like coffee but he has to try it in order to survive. Like for what reason? Survive? And also I noticed that, he usually touched his head like he was hurt or something then when I'll ask him, he'll never answer me. Does this mean, he's the arsonist? If it was him, then why is he acting like that?... Is it him? Is he the arsonist? May or may not, but I want to be friends with him. I just have this urge on me to be friends with him and I dont even know why. If it was him, I want to help him. I want to help him stop doing those horrible things. I knew, there is something fishy about it. He said it wasnt his intention, that made me conclude that maybe, just maybe he has disorder or something that made him do it. I hope I am wrong...

"What do you want for this day sir?" A store seller asked him for his orders when he finally arrived at the store he usually buys food. It wasnt an ordinary store, it was a restaurant and one of his friends owned it so all the workers there, knew him. Almost every morning, Jimin always went there to buy food for him to eat. Even if he do know how to cook, he doesnt want to. He was too lazy to cook.

"The usual please. But can you double it. I have my friends around on my house?" He ordered politely as he get his wallet to pay his orders.

"당연하지... In a minute or two sir. Please wait..." The seller  told Jimin kindly and Jimin nodded in response.

(당연하지 - dangyunhaji means 'of course)

Jimin looked on the window as he noticed the morning sun rise.
