"I don't think they've caught on yet."

    "I should have known. They're so dense."

    "Do you want me to go after the boy yet?"

    "No, it's still too soon."

    "Is there another message?"

    "Yes. Deliver it to the boy, don't let Jungkook see it."

    "I will do my best."

Taehyung gets home almost and hour before Jungkook.

What was supposed to be a day spent looking around for a job turned into a day of spending time with Hoseok.

He was happy to hear that his friend didn't have work today and that he wanted to spend time together.

They haven't spoken in so long, it was nice to be together again.

He gets inside and looks around, he'll never get used to this place.

He takes his shoes off and starts to go upstairs until something else catches his eye.

On the counter is a blue envelope sealed with a red sticker, and it has his name on it.

    "Jungkook?" He calls as he picks up the envelope.

No answer.

Taehyung tears the seal and pulls the folded paper out.

Shallow men believe in luck or in circumstance. Strong men believe in cause and effect.

Taehyung frowns rereading the note.

It seemed to be qoute of some sort but he doesn't know why it was addressed to him, or what it meant for that matter.

He shrugs it off and puts the paper back in the envelope as he heads upstairs.

He decides to busy himself with taking the rest of the clothes they brought out of the suitcases.

Taehyung's phone rings after a little while.

"Hello?"

"Taehyung?"

Taehyung frowns a little. "Taeil?"

"Yeah, how's it going?" Taeil asks.

"F-Fine. Sorry, I didn't know you had my number." Taehyung says, he hasn't spoken directly to Taeil in years.

"Yeah, Hobi gave it to me. He wanted me to call and invite you guys over later after Jungkook gets off." He says. "He said it's fine if you can't though."

"Oh, well I'll have to ask Jungkook but I don't see why not." Taehyung says.

    "Okay great, just let us know if you change your mind."

    "Yeah, okay. Thanks Taeil."

"I know it's a lot to ask. But could you meet me at the underground? I don't think I can tell you this over the phone."

"Um...Yeah. I'll be there in fifteen."

"Thank you Tae. It means the world to me, really."
