Little Miracles ~ Part 4

         Taehyung crawled out of bed with a yawn. Shuffling to the bathroom, he turned on the lights and began his usual morning routine. Hmm... that's odd, he thought, while drying his face off with a towel. At this time of day, their communal kitchen was full of life, with morning voices resonating through the halls. Today, however, the apartment was silent. He walked towards their living area, looking around. Squinting with his bleary, sleepy eyes, he could vaguely make out the shapes of their shoes still at the door. 

"Hello?" he called out. When no one answered, Taehyung determined that he was the only one awake. So weird, he thought to himself while rubbing at his blurry eyes. That's when the scent hit him.

        There was an unfamiliar scent lingering around the room. A sweet, floral smell - warm and inviting. Perfume? Raising his eyebrows in confusion, he blinked hard and cleared his sleepy vision. It didn't smell like cologne. Looking around, he was shocked to find the room impeccably clean. Everything had changed overnight - changed for the better. He barely recognized the shelves. It looked like a room straight out of an IKEA catalogue. Smiling, he walked over to the nearest shelf and lightly swept his fingertips over their belongings. How did-WHAT THE?! 

     Taehyung jolted upwards in surprise as something warm and furry brushed against his leg. Looking down, he was surprised to see a pair of blue eyes staring right back up at him. A kitten!? Totally confused, yet elated, Taehyung chuckled and sat down cross-legged on the floor. Pulling the cat onto his lap, he happily stroked its little head.

"Who are you, little friend?" he smiled, while scratching between the kitten's ears.

"Who is who?" a voice asked. Taehyung looked up to see RM stumble sleepily into the living room.

"Look!" Targeting exclaimed gleefully. "A kitten!"

"Mm..." RM grunted, not yet fully awake. It took a few moments for Taehyung's words to register in his mind. But when they finally did, to say that he was surprised would be an understatement.

"Wait... What?! How'd it get here? Who's is it? Yours?" He asked, rushing over and leaning down to pet its little head.

"No... It was just here when I came down." Taehyung responded. "Must be someone else's."

"Why-How would someone get a kitten so suddenly? When did this happen? I was up until 1 a.m. and it definitely wasn't there."

"Maybe it's the managers' cat?" Targeting suggested.

"Our managers wouldn't put their pets here though...That's so random. They have their own homes." RM contemplated.

       Just then, they were joined by another person. J-Hope walked in, half-asleep. He groggily mumbled a greeting. "Good morning-Whoa... What happened to the room?" He rubbed at his eyes and stared at how clean it was. Probing the room with his gaze, he finally spotted the source of all commotion. "Ah! Kitty~" he grinned at walked over. Taking it into his arms, he looked around inquisitively. "Who's is it?"

"No idea. We've been trying to figure that out for the past few minutes." 

      They began talking amongst themselves while the other members slowly trickled in. Suga walked in with his eyes completely closed, but was taken aback by the unfamiliar, sweet smell. "Hmm, smells nice." he grunted before heading to the kitchen to grab breakfast. His usual sleepy self was totally unaware of the kitten's presence.

"Suga-hyung!" Taehyung called, walking over. He dumped the kitten in Suga's lap, causing him to snap his eyes open and scaring the living daylight out of the poor guy. They grinned as Suga got acquainted with the kitty. It was always nice to see Suga forget his serious demeanour and opt for a kinder smile instead. They only stopped talking when they heard a commotion coming from the bedrooms.
