"How long till we get there Jimin?" RaeKyung asked grumpily leaned forward as she was cramped in the backseat with all their luggage and blankets.

"We're almost there RaeKyung..." Jimin said sighing at the thousandth time he had heard that question.

She forcefully sat back into her seat still staring and admired the clueless man driving the car. He ruffed his hair with his hand making it super fluffy.

RaeKyung watching him fluffing his hair, wanting so bad to just touch even a strand, yet she kept herself in check. Yoona asleep in the front seat started snoring. The two burst into laughter almost waking the poor girl before Jimin put his finger up to his lips to quiet RaeKyung, almost unable to stop laughing himself.

They pulled in and stopped at a gas station to fill up the tank and to get some food after driving for a couple of hours.

"2:00 am." RaeKyung says quietly to herself, reading the time on the dial inside the truck. She unbuckled her seatbelt as they pulled in.

"Alright, wake up sleeping beauty you guys run in use the bathroom or whatever you girls need to do." Jimin said giving a slight chuckle turning into a yawn.

"Alright Alright." Said RaeKyung pushing all their stuff to the other side of the truck, just enough for her to get out without everything falling over. She skipped around to the front passenger side and opened the door to wake Yoona.
"Yoonaaaa.." RaeKyung said trying not to be too startle her.
"Hmm..?" Yoona hummed, grunting as she stretched. "C'mon let's go inside."

After successfully waking her up they ran inside to use the bathroom and get some food. Yoona went first to use the bathroom. She comes out and heads to the car telling RaeKyung what she wants to eat.

"Mmm, get me an egg roll. No, three egg rolls." Said the hungry girl holding up three fingers.

RaeKyung sighed, "how are you always so hungry..?"

"Yah, a swimmer has to keep up her energy! I am a bottomless pit okay." She said rolling her eyes.

RaeKyung chuckled motioning for the small swimmer to go back to the truck and wait for her.

Raekyung walked first to use the bathroom and then over to the counter getting their food. She ordered, checked out, and grabbed the bag, heading for the truck. She wasn't paying much attention to what she was doing or where she was going because she ran smack dab into the glass door hitting her head.
Falling flat on her butt, she managed to keep her chips from being smashed but she couldn't keep her phone from it.

"Crap!" She yelled. She was so focused on her phone she didn't realize that there was someone on the other side of the door watching.

"Oh my gosh are you okay?" The man says pulling the door open running towards her.

"Oh yeah... I'm okay." RaeKyung said trying to hide her face from embarrassment inevitably leaving her hair in front of her face. The man reached out his hand helping her get back up as she slid her phone into her back pocket. He then picked up her bag and handed it to her.

"Thanks." She said, still holding her head low avoiding eye contact still due to embarrassment. 

"Yeah no problem, I hope you didn't fall too hard." He said worried for her.

"Nah I'm good," She said waving her hand, "I've got hard head." She chucked before rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly.

"Well, I guess I'm off then! Have a good night! And watch out for glass doors." He said while pushing the door open to leave. She gathered back the pride that seemed to have crashed with her and all her belongings and went to walk out the door.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a brown leather wallet laying on the dirty white tiles of the gas station floor. She picked it up rubbing her thumb on the front of the soft leather. 

"Oh, the guy who helped me up, he must have dropped this!" 

She pushed out the door and ran down the sidewalk only to see the strange man had disappeared. She walked down the side of the gas station and looked around back of the building but still no sign of him. She stood on the sidewalk in the pitch-black night slowly looking towards the wallet. She then pulled her hand around the front and slowly opened it. She examined his name and face on his ID. 

"I-I.." She said softly in shock, "I knew his voice was familiar.." She furrowed her eyebrows,

"Jung Hoseok.."
