Taehyung's head popped out of the corner to check, after the BIGHIT staff passed by.

He placed his phone against his ear, and whispered,
"Yah, hyung, they just passed me. What now?"

"Ok, now go change into some other clothes and put on the cap I gave you. Don't forget the mask." The person on the call instructed.

"Okay, thanks." Tae said, he turned around and entered the washroom sneakily.

He locked it and changed into some black pants, a black tee and an oversized black jacket. He put on the mask and the cap, totally covering his face. He put his previous clothes back in the backpack, put it on and left the washroom.

His head was hung low, trying to avoid attention as much as possible.

As he walked through the railway station, he lifted his a little and nodded at two people on his left, and left the station.

He walked through the bustling streets of Daegu, hands dug into his pant pockets comfortably.

After 5 minutes of walking or so, his phone rung.He picked it up with a smile, and replied,
"Hello, hyung?...Yeah I am outside the station...Yeah, no one recognised me...Yes I've got the address...Ok, I will...Thanks...Bye."

He put on his headphones, removed his mask as soon as he entered a vacant street and checked through his SNS on his phone, with the address of his aunt on a chit between the fingers of his free hand.

Meanwhile, Eunbin jogged, with headphones blaring music into her ears, towards the intersecting road.

As soon as she reached the turn, she suddenly with a jerk, found herself on the ground.

She groaned at the impact and rubbed her forehead. She opened her eyes and saw a boy of around almost her age on the ground.

She pushed herself up on her feet and so did the boy.Eunbin kept on an impassive expression and waited for his apology.

The boy, too, expected a 'sorry' from her, he, being used to being treated like a prince.

Eunbin stared at him, waiting for him to start, while the boy wore a confused expression as to why she wasn't apologising.

He raised his eyebrows at her.

And that was it for her. She gasped. A surprised-cum-angry expression spread across her face.

"Bloody jerk." She spat and turned around, her hair hitting him in the face, and she left.

The boy was surprised.
"Seriously, what's with her ?" He uttered, and left the place.

Eunbin reached her house and was about to unlock the door when she realised she had dropped her headphones at the place she had crashed.

"Oh, darn." She muttered.

She turned around and followed back to where she had come from.

She reached the place, and started searching for her thing.

After a moment of searching, she finally found them. But beside it layed a chit. She picked it and read it. It was an address, but it was little too familiar. The only thing that differentiated it from her own address was the house number. Basically, an address of her neighbor.

She sighed, the thought that she had to look for that boy again annoyed her.She had seen the chit in the boy's hand earlier, and he did look like was new around.

She started looking around and finally found him, sitting on the bench.
She hesitantly walked towards him and called out,
"Hey, is this yours ?

The boy lifted his head and at the sight of the chit, he grinned.

"Yup, thanks!" He took the chit from her.
Eunbin was about to walk away, when he said,
"Hey, can you help me find this house ?"

Eunbin sighed.
"Sure, why not..."

°°

The boy and Eunbin found themselves infront of the desired house.
He turned his head towards her and grinned widely.
"Thank you so much."

"Yeah, no probs."
Eunbin turned around and started walking towards the opposite direction, across the street.

As soon as she reached her front door and opened it a familiar voice called out from behind.
"Yah! You live here?!"

As expected, it was the annoying boy.
"Well what do you see, creep?" She muttered to herself, and turned around with a very fake, sarcastic smile.

"Yeah, I think I live hear." She replied.

"Really?! Cool!" He said enthusiastically.

"Stupid." She muttered to herself.

"By the way, the name's Kim Taehyung! Nice to meet you!" He said or rather shouted, as they were standing on the opposite sides of the road.

A moment passed as she stared at him. "Oh. I am Eunbin. Bye." And she closed the door.

Taehyung was surprised.

"Yah, seriously, what was that ?" He asked himself and entered the house.

"Tae! Ma boy~" His aunt sang, and hugged him, making him chuckle into her shoulder.

"How are you? Wait- No one was able to catch you, right ?" she asked.

"Yeah, aunt, everything went as planned, thanks."

"Good. Alright then go upstairs and freshen up, dinner is almost ready."

"Okay aunty!" He said and went upstairs.

He took a shower and came downstairs.
His aunt, her 5 year old son who clung to Tae, and he conversed and reminisced the older days.

After a good full meal, he climbed upstair to his given room and slept peacefully after a long time.
