Eileen gulped as she read the words written across the paper. Everyone around her begged to know what was written.
"I'll pay you twenty bucks." On woman reached for her wallet.
"Fifty!" Another man yelled.
"Hey now folks, remember the rule is that you cannot tell anyone what is written." The man spoke to the chattering people.
She shoved the paper into her pocket, and rushed down the street. She needed to go to someone who she could trust. Someone who would believe her.

"Jimin, open up!"
Jimin narrowed his eyes as he saw Eileen knocking on the window of the antique shop. It was late at night, and during closing time. He rushed to the door and unlocked it.
"What the hell are you doing here at midnight?" He whispered, chuckling in disbelief.
"I'm sorry to bother you so late, but I actually need your help with something."
"What's wrong?" He asked, looking at her nervous eyes.
"My friend is missing and t-they took Taehyung too." She covered her face as she sobbed.
"I'm so sorry." He quietly comforted me.
"W-why are you sorry?" Eileen asked, sniffling.

"He was looking for me?" She asked, ignoring everything else he said.
"Yeah, he seemed really worried too." Jimin explained.
"He must be lost. You need to help me find him, please!" She begged Jimin as another tear fell.
"Shh, i'll help you okay? Don't cry." He whispered as he wiped her cheek with his thumb.

"What?" She asked in a teary voice.
"If only you could see how beautiful you look when you cry."
Eileen laughed and sobbed at the same time, something only woman in-love did. She gathered the courage to look him in the eyes without blushing.
"You're such a flirt." She softly smiled.
The room fell into a comfortable silence. They both oddly felt safe in each others presence. Even though they met a couple days ago, they still had a spark.
"I like you Eileen." He mumbled, while staring at the night sky.
