          "Im Jaebum, I let you be in this group until the end of promotions for this recent comeback. If the result of this comeback is positive then, I'll let you stay in this group. Together again as GOT7. " The chairman stated to Jaebum. Jaebum couldn't help but kept smiling to himself. He felt happy to be back again in his former group and once again as the leader. The other members were happy too. Finally, he can achieve his dream again.

Jaebum went out from the chairman office and was greeted by a man in black. "So? How is it going?" He asked. Jaebum flashed him a bright smile. "I'm back in GOT7. Thanks to you really. I owe you so much." Jaebum replied. "Nah, not a big problem bro. I just want the right thing to happen." He chuckled as he patted Jaebum's shoulder. Jaebum just can't stop smiling.

:: flashback ::

That day in the classroom, after Dahyun left the Jaebum and the man alone.

"Im Jaebum. I'm shocked that you left... I know that wasn't you. Who makes you?" He asked. "Hyung... I -... I just want the others to be successful. If I am the reason they didn't get the spotlight, then I'll just go for the better." Jaebum replied.

"You go for the better, you said? While you should stay for the best?" He asked more. "Hyung... things happened. Just let it be. I'm happy being here." Jaebum said while keeping his eyes glued on the floor. "Are you sure that you are happy? Take a look at them and rate the happy you felt." Said the man as he pointed to the GOT6 down there performing their song.

Jaebum looked at them with tender eyes. He missed them. He missed dancing together with them. He missed laughing together with them. He missed everything he had done with them. 

"Listen, I had met with the chairman. I think he would like to want you to meet him. He should send a notice by tomorrow." His words made Jaebum's brain working. Thinking about his life for a short while.  "You can go and hang out with them after this. Want to join?" He asked with an inviting voice. Jaebum smiled as he nodded.

          "Glad to have you back hyung.." Youngjae shouted as Jaebum entered the dorm. "You guys know about that already??" Jaebum asked in a shocked expression. He was about to surprise them with the news. But they are so updated about what he is up to. Jackson was grinning happily seeing their hyung are back. Jinyoung smiled so cheekily while leaning on the wall. Mark was smiling so charmingly on the couch with his snacks. Bambam and Yugyeom already clapping and dancing randomly on the living room to celebrate the come back of their best leader. 

"Youngjae, I told you to say 'Welcome Back Hyung!!' not 'Glad to have you Back Hyung!'," Jackson said to Youngjae. "Isn't it just the same?" Youngjae argued back. "Enough guys. Now let's celebrate this moment with pizza." Jinyoung said. "Pizza! Pizza!" Mark shouted and the maknaes are doing other random things.

Meanwhile, Dahyun was still confused and can't stop thinking about Jaebum. 

What bothers her a lot is the fact that Jaebum isn't going to school anymore and continuing his former job. She missed him. Missing him already. She felt like her days in the school are back again like before. Silent where no one is there to talk with her. No one to play with anymore. 

EMPTINESS.
