JI HAE : Jae Ra-ssi, this place is beautiful. Thanks for bringing us here. (-taking pictures-) I really enjoyed today.

JAE RA : (-smiles-) I am glad you did.

Taehyung unerringly captured every little angel he could of the view, standing Jaehyung as his model for the night.

Although, Ji hae and Taehyung were far apart individually cherishing their moments, it didn't seem to bother JaeRa anymore. A little tardy however, she matured around that topic and decided to respect their privacy and particulars- making it easier both for the family and her as well.

Soon after dinner, they headed back to the five star hotel marking the closure of the day, and of the package following by. JaeRa tried her finest to make them taste the best of New York, and hoped it was so for them indeed.

It was past ten in the morning, the company drove the family to the airport as a complimentary ride.
They had already headed inside the airport away from the few Armys that Taehyung gained attention on reaching.

JaeRa felt empty and dreadful coming to the utter realization of final part-ways stage of the tour with them. She couldn't counter her feelings picking out on their relationship which was nothing but of total strangers.

She had grown fonder of Jae hyung in mere three days, that she obviously didn't expect. Missing him was trivializing to her heart's current state.
She sealed the petty unruly feelings putting her work mask on as she proceeded with her final words.

JAE RA : Thank you so much for choosing Bon Voyage Tourism Agency. I hope you had a great experience with us and if we lacked in any sort, we sincerely apologize for the same.

TH : Ah, No no. We did have a great time. Thank you, Kim Jae Ra-ssi.

Ji hae - very likely of her, not budging from her classy aura and elegance - smiled standing next to him.

JAE RA : (-smiles-) We would be waiting for your feedbacks. Wish you a safe flight. (-bowing-)

Trying to surpass her involuntary tears, she looked down to avoid Taehyung's dismally blue eyes. Jaehyung next bought her attention as he pulled the hem of her beige summer coat.

She knelt down to him with a bright natural smile, she always had with Jaehyung. A sudden gloom took over it ruthlessly as she looked into the younger's characteristic round orbs.

JAE HYUNG : (-hugging me by my neck-) Don't be sad. I'll come again.

JaeRa's heart let out a small inaudible cry at his angelic gesture and selfless consoling words as she wasted no seconds to return his hug.
The peace and enamor that the little soul's hug brought her was in one word, ineffable.

With closed eyes, she lived every bits of the brief moment arbitrating it as the last time she was ever gifted of the opportunity.

JAE RA : Okay, I'll wait for you. (-releasing the hug-)

He passed on a sweet smile which was infectious to her. An enigmatic string attached them with its viciousness, knitting in intricacies to their twisted fate.
