Waste It On Me

The Search

Jisoo unbuckled her seatbelt as she released a heavy sigh as she rubbed her temples before giving a weak goodbye to Taehyung as she attempted to step out of the car - until Taehyung grabbed her wrist and pulled her in for a last hug.

"It's going to be okay. Rosé will come home eventually - safe and unharmed." He said as he hugged her tightly and then releasing her only to use his thumb to wipe off Jisoo's tears away. "Update me okay? Just call me if there is anything I can help with." He continued as Jisoo just softly nodded before stepping out of his car and rushing inside their mansion.

Taehyung just frowned as his heart ached seeing Jisoo cry - which apparently was his new profound weakness - before he drove off away from the Kim mansion, his thoughts never leaving Jisoo.

Jisoo enters their living room where everyone was at - her father, sisters, cousins, close family friends and two of the boys : Jimin and Jungkook.

Jisoo sobbed harder as she saw their father seating on one of the couches - crying hard as Jennie and Lisa comforted him.

"What happened? I thought she went to school?" Jisoo said as she approached her sisters and father.

"We all thought she did, but when Jennie unnie had checked up on her in the studio - she wasn't there. We've asked few of her fellow dancers if they've seen her but they admitted that she hasn't been at the studio yet." Lisa said as she bit her lip and frowned.

"She hasn't attended her classes even - a first as she never misses one at all." Jennie comments - her eyes were all puffy as she had been relentlessly crying.

"One of the chambermaids found this on her bed a bit later when they cleaned her room." Their father said as he passed to Jisoo some piece of scented paper with Rosé's handwriting.

Jisoo cleared her throat as she receives the pink letter and reads it silently.

"Oh God, Rosé bear - where could you possibly have run off too." Jisoo said as another tear run down her face. Jisoo turned her head as she noticed the others busy making calls - probably asking people of Rosé's whereabouts.

"Me, EDawn and Dahyun will go and help the others in surveying the city. I'll make a call as soon as we find clues to where she exactly is." Hyuna said as she, EDawn and Dahyun had went out to help in the search for Rosé.

"The other boys have been here as well. They're on patrol, asking people around if they've possibly seen Rosé." Jennie said as she stood up and crossed her arms over her chest. "Even Seokjin oppa."

At the mention of Seokjin's name - pain strikes through Jisoo's heart again as she just nodded silently before she takes notice of Nayeon who sat at another couch - biting her lip nervously as her eyes looked at the floor sadly.

Jisoo approaches Nayeon cautiously as the younger looked at her with quivering lips and remorseful eyes.

"Nayeon-shi? I know you wouldn't lie when it comes about Rosé so I am only going to ask you once - and I hope you become honest with me." Jisoo softly said as she sat beside Nayeon, softly taking a hold of her hands. "Do you know where Rosé had run off too?"

Nayeon looked at her, biting her lip as she just stared at her while her eyes swelled up with tears.

"I - don't know unnie. I would t-tell if I had known. I swear." Nayeon said half truthfully as she did not know where her best friend was indeed - although she did have helped her out with her running away.
