Jimin is on his way home with all the groceries Namjoon sent him to go and buy. He hasn't bought food for a few days as the kind man helped them out on that day by giving Jimin some money. But today they needed to buy more food and necessities to makes sure they had enough for the opening season.

The sun shines on his face as his arms hold tightly to the plastic bags. Hoseok really did well off the market for them to be buying a load of food. Jimin sighs taking a little break. He rests the plastics on the ground panting heavily while wiping some sweat off his forehead. He stands straighter stretching his back rolling his head around his neck. By the distant he sees a familiar car and he begins to smile.

The car stops right infront of him and Jimin respectively bows watching the man. "Hello Jimin,"

"Oh hello sir," he's surprised that the man knows his name.

"Hey Jimin I was heading by the house, is Karoo there?" He asks. Jimin nods his head with a smug smile. "I got her this cane," the man searches at the back bringing out a long white cane stick with poshes at the bottom.

Jimin holds the stick in his arms admiring the stick. "Wow sir, this is really beautiful. She'll love it," Jimin says thinking of how Namjoon won't have to stress for branches and also about how Karoo will be excited. She's been stuck in the house for days afraid to move without her stick or anyone supporting her.

"That's awesome. Hop in let me give you a lift with all those bags," the man says pressing a button for the boot to open up. Jimin grabs the plastics quickly putting them in the car. Jimin was not the type to reject or turn down anything so he walked to the back door opening it up.

"Thank you sir," he says putting his seatbelt on and feeling the light vibrations of the car.

"I want you to do something for me.."

Once they get to the compound of the house they spot Karoo sitting outside on the bench eating a small piece of a watermelon. The man turns to Jimin silencing him, Jimin nods remembering the plan they had made in the car.

He holds the stick up and runs to where Karoo is as the man follows silently behind. Jimin crouches down infront of Karoo and takes her melon watching her cute cheeks puff out. He places the cane in her hands and she hesitantly begins to feel it. Her fingers and hands moving up and down on the stick and her fingers lingering on the stud at the bottom.

"Jimin,"

"Yes," he has a wide smile on his face looking back to the man. They both watched as her face lit up.

"This is beautiful," she says travelling her fingers to the top. She felt how smooth her fingers glided to the top. It wasn't made of the tree branches but of manufactured wood. She felt how it was coated in what she thought of as paint. "But how did you get this?" She asks being dazed. "Who gave it to you?"

"I got it from sir," Jimin says.

"Sir? Really?" She chuckles lightly. "Wow.. Where did you meet him?" It's been long since she last saw him and she knew that from his voice when he was happy that he was a really sweet man.

"I met him, along the road," Jimin answers smoothly to her questions drilling her on.

"The road? So where is he now?" She smiles lightly. Jimin turns to the man and he puts his pointer finger by his lips signalling Jimin to still be quiet about his presence.

"He's gone,"

She pouts but quickly cheers up still feeling the stick in her hands. "This is really beautiful. He's so sweet to have bought this for me... I hope I get the chance to meet him again so that I can say thank you," she stands up holding the top and stretching it out to the ground. She taps the stud on the ground hearing the sound it makes. "Listen to that. It's new?"
