Chapter 1

"People are priceless. A chance meeting with a loving human being was worth more than any amount of money in the world. I felt rich."

Taraa's POV

October was approaching its end. Winter was slowly creeping in and autumn was a guest for just few more days. Days had started to brim with activity while nights were becoming darker, quieter, colder.

I was returning home after a little reunion with my school friends. All of us had went our separate ways to pursue further studies.

The street was mostly deserted as it was that hour of the day when the students had went home after a long day at school and their parents were probably still at their workplaces.

As my feet trodded the dry fallen leaves, my mind wandered to the latest album released by my favourite artists, BTS. Love Yourself : Her. Oh, how amazing were the songs! I started wondering what they were doing right now. Eating? Sleeping? Or maybe working on something new? Those thoughts made me smile.

I started calculating the current time in South Korea as it was a few hours ahead of my country, India. But suddenly, loud laughter snapped me away from my thoughts. As I moved my eyes away from the leaf I had just crushed and lifted them a little, I saw 7 boys coming towards me, lost in their own talk.

It didn't took me any time to recognize them even though they were a bit far. But as realisation dawned upon me, I froze at my spot. BTS??!! Here??!! Did my fangirling reach to such heights that now I am even seeing them? My thoughts were so muddled that I didn't realize how close they were.

A few moments later, one of them came in front of me and snapped his fingers. I was startled and jerked my head and realised that it was V.

"Hellooo!!! Are you okay?" he asked.

I couldn't move nor could I speak.

"Are you there?" he repeated.

"Y-Yeah. But- " I paused.

"What happened?" asked J-Hope and flashed me a bright smile.

"Y-You? W-When? H-Here? H-How?" I asked, stuttering.

"Hey-hey, calm down first." said Jungkook and smiled, showing his bunny smile.

"Excuse me, but do you know us?" asked RM.

"Of course, who wouldn't? Besides, I am an ARMY." I answered.

"WOAHH!!" All of them shouted, earning a few glances from passers-by.

"You know, you should just stop pinching yourself so badly", Suga said pointing to my hands that were unconsciously doing torture on my arm. I laughed nervously.

"So, um, may I ask - WHAT IN THE NAME OF GOD ARE YOU DOING HERE?" I asked, with excitement completely filling my voice.

They looked at each other in understanding.

"Our company, BigHit, sent us here mainly to explore India and also to check our chances of performing here." explained RM.

"And RM hyung also said that we would see many pretty girls here. I guess he was right." said Jimin and winked at me, making me blush.

Just when RM smacked Jimin on his head lightly, his phone rang. He answered his phone and meanwhile nodded his head a few times.

"Well guys, it seems like we will have to go back to the hotel. Manager-nim has asked for an important meeting right now." RM informed earning clicking of tongues and rolling of eyes from rest of the members.

"Sorry, but I guess we'll have to go now. It was nice meeting you." Jin said looking at me.

"O-Okay. But can I have your autographs?" I asked hopefully.

"YEAH, OF COURSE." They said in unison.

I took out a clean, light cream handkerchief from my bag and gave it to them. While they were signing, I allowed my gaze to travel to each one of them.

They were wearing casual clothes, and -

- were stunningly handsome.

Suddenly, their driver came from God knows where and stopped in front of us. Jin handed the signed handkerchief back to me and smiled. I smiled broadly in response.

"So we will take our leave now. Goodbye." They said and started sitting in their car.

Before stepping in the car, V turned his head at me and asked, "What's your name?"

"Taraa Song. Song Taraa, as in Korea." I replied.

"Are you Korean?" he asked, amazed by my oh-so-Korean surname.

"Just a fraction." I said.

"O-Oh okay, right." V nodded, although I was sure he was confused a bit.

When their car had started moving, Jungkook stuck his head out and waved at me, smiling broadly.

"Congratulations for your new album." I shouted and waved as their car turned at the corner, not sure whether they had heard me or not.

Soon after hearing a faint "Thank You", I headed back home, smiling from ear to ear.
