"It's only been 20 minutes, Taehyung. We haven't even reached the passway yet," Soojin explained with slight distaste.
"You better quit your whining. It's almost an extra day longer, so get used to it," Yoongi muttered under his breath.
Taehyung groaned, letting his arms fall limp on either side of his horse.
