Jungkook slowly trudged home from another miserable day at work. The office he worked at was beyond mundane and relentless with paperwork. He dangled his briefcase beside his leg limply, shuffling forward gradually. He desperately wanted a vacation away from his ordinary existence. He craved excitement in his life, something to make life seem more tolerable.

Jungkook sighed softly as he unlocked his mailbox to his apartment complex: G37. His mailbox and his apartment. The lodgings he strived to escape from every so often. That was why he'd made comrades at his department to try and make things more intriguing in his life.

He grabbed the only envelope in his lonely mailbox, staring at it in curiosity. There was no name on the envelope that conveyed who it was for, only his address with his specific apartment listed. He flipped the crisp, pristine envelope over in his hands before glimpsing at who'd sent him the letter. "Taehyung?" Jungkook read aloud to himself, inclining his head in confusion. He didn't recognize this person's name, he couldn't recall ever knowing a 'Taehyung or why they might be mailing him a letter.

He took the envelope, pressing it to his chest and secured his mailbox once more, locking it again. He turned towards his apartment door and unlocked the deadbolt before stepping inside the threshold. He removed his polished black dress shoes by the door and set them off to the side before climbing the stairs to his apartment floor.

He tossed his briefcase down on the couch, slumping into the spot he normally settles on the divan. He turned the envelope over to the back, discovering a small, glittery purple, heart-shaped sticker fastening the back of the envelope. He jerked the heart sticker away from the lip of the envelope and spewed the contents onto his sofa.

He sifted through the contents, gasping softly when he saw the pictures of beautiful scenery. The one postcard had a magnificent view of a towering resort on the beachfront with the sun setting behind it, illuminated brilliantly by the filter that was used to capture the moment. He lifted the postcard up and turned it over to read what was written by the other person:

Day one of my travels in Hawaii. I am on Waikiki beach, known for its nightlife and entertainment. I miss being at home, but at the same time, who would want to pass up this opportunity to travel the world? Especially since it will be my last chance to do so, love~ Please take care and know that I am on my way to you at the end of this journey. I will be at XXXX Ala Moana Blvd in Honolulu next. Please write back~♡ Wish you were here~♡
~♡Taehyung♡~

Jungkook had to do a double-take at those last words scrawled in the tidy handwriting, wondering why a total stranger would wish he were there with them and why they'd be making their way to him. He had to warn this person that they were navigating the wrong direction if they thought this address was their destination. He looked at all the images of the beautiful scenery from Waikiki beach. Some of the snapshots even held little glimpses of an individual smiling in the contour of a wide box. While other portraits displayed all the tourists on the beach that were appreciating their vacations.
