Soon, it was time for Namjoon to head back. He bid Taehyung farewell and began the walk back to the café on the corner of the street.

Tae's thoughts of the newspaper completely slipped his mind, and he forgot to check the bin as he ran back to the showground again.

Unfortunately, when he got there, there was a note on Hope's stable door, which Tae pulled off and frowned at.

"Hey Taehyung! I am so sorry to do this to you on your first day but something came up with my managers and I need all these complicated drug tests done exc. I hope you don't mind taking the afternoon and tomorrow off! I heard there was some kind of idol hosting a street concert in the lower town - you may want to check it out! Have fun and stay safe! Hobi <3"

Tae chuckled and tucked the note away, giving Hope a quick fuss before jogging back towards town.

Hoseok had been right. Something was definitely happening in the town square! People were gathered in a cluster around a pop up stage, and half of them were cheering excitedly.

He stood around and looked up to see a man on the stage - probably about Hoseok's age - holding a microphone.

"Hey guys! My name is Jimin! I am a singer from BigHit Entertainment - Nice to meet you!" The man said excitedly, and the crowd erupted, despite it's small size.

"So his week I am holding a street concert every day, to raise money for an eating disorder charity! Please make donations at the front and enjoy the music!"

Some people made their donations as Jimin began to sing. Tae was entranced by his unexpectedly soft, gentle voice, that carried through the street. He began to dance too, and many of the people in the audience swooned.

Tae supposed that this man was some sort of K-pop idol. He looked made up and smart, and especially talented.

There was something about this boy that just made Tae want to feel happy. The aura he was emitting just made him feel like he wanted to grin and dance with him...

But Tae couldn't dance...

At least, he had never tried.

He went to the front and found one of the 10000 won notes he had won, slotting it into the collection box.

As Jimin was dancing, he saw the homeless boy giving away his money, and looked down at him from the stage, hopping over and kneeling down as he sang. He was touched at how a homeless kid still gave money despite his situation.

Tae didn't notice that Jimin was practically beside him until he looked up and jumped out of his skin.

Jimin laughed cutely and ruffled his hair, still singing into the microphone, but making eye contact with Taehyung, who just stared back, stunned.

When Jimin stood up and continued dancing, Tae still remained frozen and confused. Did a K-pop idol just ruffle his hair? 

A box smile invaded his face and he blushed, staring up in awe.

He was almost glad Hoseok needed those tests doing!

He got to meet Park Jimin!!!!!!!!!!!!

He stayed for a while, savouring every word that left the idol's lips. Tae found it incredible that a popular idol like him would just hold a simple street concert purely for charity.

Kindness such as that was hard to come by.

Clearly angels did exist.

Between each song, the idol would stop and talk to the crowd, and Tae would have stayed for the whole time if that thought hadn't crept back to his mind.
