"Maybe you don't know him after all."

"Ashe."
Her heart literally skipped a beat. For a moment, she was speechless.
The voice spoke again. "You have to tell me if it's you."
"J-Jimin?"
~~~
It was difficult not to remember Jimin's voice. Ashe had once describe it as unique. It was higher than an average man's, yet it wasn't irritating to one's ears. In fact, it was calming. It was something you'd like to hear everyday, especially at times when you just need something to sooth your nerves. Jimin before would often sing to her so that she could have a peaceful sleep.
Having to hear that voice for practically a decade made it a permanent memory inside her head, so despite not hearing it for the longest time ever, it was never a hindrance for her to not recognize it.
"J-Jimin?" The girl choked on a sob, feeling the tears brimming in her eyes. She missed him so much that just hearing his voice was enough for her to break down.
"Shh, don't cry, darling," Jimin said in a hush voice. "It's me, Ashe. It's Park Jimin."
Ashe couldn't believe it. On the other side of the call was none other than her best friend who disappeared on her for weeks.
"Jimin, where are you? Why did you leave?" she began asking, wiping the tears away. "No wait, tell me where you are first, okay? Stay on the line and I'll call Dad so he could help-"
"Ashe don't." She stopped rambling. "Darling, you need to listen to me. Look, this is just a big mistake."
"Mistake? What do you mean mistake? Jimin, you're not making any sense!" the brunette shouted over the phone, her face stricken with bewilderment.
Jimin sighed. "I shouldn't have contacted you before, Ashe," he told her. "Look, I'm fine. I overreacted. I shouldn't have told you to find me. Look, this is all just one big prank."
"Prank?" she repeated, her voice indifferent. "Jimin, Taehyung fucking died today. If you think that I would believe anyone's 'logic reasoning' for what's happening right now, then all of you are wrong. What is really going on, Jimin? Where did Choi take you?"
