Episode 36: I'm the one I should love in this world

PREVIOUSLY ON:                         QUIRKS

Yoongi is drowning in his work load. Namjoon, Jin and Yoongi have to complete their exams a month earlier than the other Fifth Year students because they have the Third Task clashing. So when Yoongi's in his room under all his paperwork and sheets of useless (but actually helpful if he ever read them) information, he begs for a distraction.

It's a good thing, Jimin's bored and decided to pay him a visit. They listen to Movie soundtracks and think about their childhoods.

Bangtan High was a boarding school located somewhere in the middle of a dense forest on a mountain. There was an invisible barrier around the school to keep it even more safe, it was harder to get into the school than it was to get out. But because all the students were in the school for an entire year and could only ever leave during the holidays, there had to be some tricks to get them out.

For one, the Fifth Year students were allowed to leave to the little village by the bottom of the valley that scattered around many old people who didn't really understand the school too much. The Fourth and Fifth Year students were also allowed to go visit the village during the weekends as well and the overall life outside of the school was... alright? That's beside the point. What we need to focus on is little Jungkook, an innocent First Year who was currently being dragged out of the school.

Jungkook had the hells of his feet stuck to the ground, whilst Jin pulled him out of the main reception area by his collar. Once Jungkook was actually outside of the school, he looked behind him and gulped, "hyung, I'm not even supposed to be out here!" he squeaked, the idea of breaking rules and getting expelled from the school passing through his mind. When he looked back at the gravel beneath his feet and the silent of the outdoors, except for you know... nature.

"One, you have me and I have Tommy," he shrugged.

"Wait- you mean Tommy, the pink and blue haired boy?" Jungkook asked. "How does everyone know him?"

Jin grinned widely, "Tommy knows about 5 people in this school. One of those 5 is Yoongi, who knows me and Namjoon. Before BTS, I only knew him as 'the boy with the-"

"Mint green headphones," Jungkook interrupted.

Jin nodded, "Exactly! I really wished I knew him before though, apparently Tommy and his 4 closer friends know the lunch people and he always gets free lunch from them. Tommy's not actually too confident you know, his friends are and that's how he knows people. He's great, introduced my to Debby-"

"The receptionist?" Jungkook asked.

Jin nodded. "Tommy became friends with her when he bought her a Christmas present back in his Third Year. Can you believe he was the first student to ever gift her something?! Anyway, that's how he became friend with her and then she became his 'gatekeeper'," Jin explained.

Jungkook furrowed his brows, "What's a gatekeeper?"

"In Tommy's case, Debby is the only person authorized to let people in and out of this school. Anytime he wants to leave he can. I know Tommy, Tommy knows Debby, hence I'm allowed to go outside and bring a First Year student with me," he said.

Jungkook made an 'o' shape with his mouth and nodded, "so where exactly are we going then hyung?" Jin pointed at the bottom of the mountain area. Jungkook had to squint past his weak glasses prescription just to see the outline of a village. He had heard enough about the village to know that's where everyone kind of went to. He gulped and looked down at how far he and Jin would have to walk but before Jungkook could even turn his head and tell Jin that he'd rather go and do homework, a little jingle of keys caught his ear. The young boy turned to see Jin holding a set of keys in his hands, he jingled them in front of Jungkook and smirked slightly, "why do you have those?" Jungkook asked.
