Jimin : Tae I'm scared. I'm taking the next flight and coming back to Miami. It's suffocating :((

Taehyung : Minnie you know you can't. It's going to be fine. Trust me. And I'll be there in 3 weeks.

Jimin : It's hard Tae.

Taehyung : You know what? You need to go out. You can't hide yourself inside those four walls and hope you won't go crazy.

Jimin : I'm fucking terrified to go out. I'd rather stay in and go crazy than go out and face people that probably hate me to death.

Taehyung : Minnie, it's been 4 years! You don't even know if they're still in Seoul or Korea for that matter.

Jimin : I can't risk my life on a 'if', Tae!

Taehyung : Yeah, you are right. But you have to do something to distract yourself...

Taehyung : hmm...What can you do to distract yourself?

Jimin : ..........

Taehyung : DANCE! Yeah that's right. You need to DANCE.

Jimin : Tae, I'm having an existential crisis here and you want me to dance? :/

Taehyung : Oh come on, Jimin! It's the best and only way you can distract yourself. And you know it!

Jimin : Well dancing does help in releasing stress. But for that I have to go out to a dance studio but i don't want to go out and that's what I'm trying to do, remember?

Taehyung : You live in a fucking mansion, Park Jimin. You don't need to go out. Make use of the spare rooms you have.

Jimin : I will. Thanks Tae Tae. I don't know what I'd do without you.

Taehyung : I'm always here for you, Minnie. I love you.

Jimin : I love you too.

Jimin kept his phone at the side table and threw his body on the king size bed, staring into nothingness with his chest filled with overwhelming emotions. He is here in Seoul. After 4 years of forced exile which later turned into a voluntary one, he's back.

As soon as they landed in Korea, Dohyun has been busy with all the responsibilities of the company being handed over to him. He goes early and comes home late, he's literally living in his office. Not that Jimin isn't used to this but at least he had Taehyung when he was in Miami.

Taehyung, Jimin's best friend and Dohyun's cousin, is an art gallery curator and the only person who Jimin trusts, who knows a little about Yoongi, who suspects there's more to just 'I married Dohyun because I needed money for my mom's operation'.
