Jimin watched with sheer awe, his dear dongsaeng who was teaching his students. He and Yoongi stood at the narrow pathway, hidden from Yeonjun's sight.

He has not changed.
Not one bit.

"Jiminie hyung never stands with us during group photos anymore," whined Yeonjun.
"I don't wanna embarrass myself, Yeonie.", said Jimin with a mocking smile, as he pinched Yeonjun's cheeks.
"Haa Yoongi hyung too. Isn't he like a centimetre taller than you? But he is still short, though."
"Yeon."
"Hm?"
"You have two seconds to run."
Yoongi stood right behind him.

"Yeonjunnie aegi."
"Does Aegi want tteokbokki?"
"Aegi is so cute cute. Like noot-noot."
"Yeonjunnie aegi po-po, noot-noot"

All these by Park Jimin, as he pinched Yeonjun's apple cheeks, recklessly.

Yeonjun groaned,"Please stop calling me that, hyung."
Jimin laughed,"What? Jin-hyung calls Soobin, Soo-soo. I am sure Yeonjunnie aegi is not that offensive."
Yeonjun suddenly changed his demeanor and switched to noot-noot Yeonjunnie.
He gave a devastating pout and cried out,
"Right, Yeonjunnie aegi wants to compare hands with Jiminie hyung. Please, hyungie. Please, please."

Jimin gave a blank unimpressed look at his junior and deadpanned.
"Get lost, Choi Yeonjun."

And Yeonjun laughed.

"What music video?"
Yeonjun asked eyeing his hyung suspiciously.
"The one for my solo. The B-side."
"Ok. But why do you need me?"
"As my brother. In the mv."

Yeonjun stared at his hyung rather incredulously.

"And who gave you that idea?!"

Jimin rolled his eyes. I definitely should have brought Tae with me, he thought.
"Your brother from another mother. Kim Taehyung."
Yeonjun sighed, "Hyung, I don't know the basics of acting. Why don't you ask Soobin?"

"Oh hell no. I would rather walk around in a dress. No Soobin. He is a fricking tower. Yes, I know he is your boyfriend and all that, but he is tall. Like TALL tall."

Yeonjun stared into oblivion.
Jimin waved his hands in front of the other's face.
Yeonjun snapped out.
"What?" asked Jimin.
"I think I may have a very disturbing image in my mind right now."
Jimin narrowed his eyes.
"What.."
"You in a dress."
Jimin groaned as he proceeded to beat the hell out of his junior.

The music video was beautiful.
It potrayed two brothers. Yeonjun as the younger, who had a medical condition and was waiting the inevitable. And Jimin as the elder, who couldn't get the time to make enough memories.
During the last scene, where they film the younger brother's death, Jimin cried.
Without glycerine.
Without props.
He just cried.
The entire crew cried.
After the ending shot, Yeonjun said nothing. He pulled his hyung to a bone- crushing hug. And Jimin cried on his shoulders.

Jimin had cried the same way, when Yeonjun had left.

He had never thought he would see him again.

And now he's here.

But Jimin has to control and convince himself, not to sprint to his junior and just hug him.

Just a hug.
