" Jimin ah.."
Yoongi shouts from the living room.
Jimin sat up straight once he heard his name being called, the loud footsteps stopped right in front of his door.

The older opens the door frantically, his phone clutched in his hand.
" Hyung, what's wrong ?"
He places his notebook aside leaning forward to see what got the older hyperventilating at such a fine hour.

" Look what your mom sent me."
He flashes his gummy smile to Jimin before turning over the phone screen.

It's a baby picture of Jimin, the little rubber duckie is clenched in between his tiny fists and he has the biggest smile on his face. His eyes disappeared into the crescent moon just like now. The little t-shirt hangs so loosely on Jimin's tiny body making him seem even more tiny than he is.

" You look like a tiny precious child."
Yoongi can't help but coo over how cute baby Jimin looks. He then looks at Jimin and says
“ Well, you're still a tiny precious child.”

Jimin grabs the phone from Yoongi's hand , trying hard to frown but seeing his baby pic is doing wonders to him, now that he was carrying a baby inside of him. He smiles, running his finger over the screen. Will his child look like a mini version of him ?

Yoongi stares at him fondly, nothing really changed about him. Jimin is still the sweet little child as the day they first met.

Baby Yoongi, no wait, don't call him that he's a big boy now. 6 year old Yoongi was playing all by himself in the park. His eyes focused on the little ants that fascinated his young mind.

He watches them carefully, his mouth turning into a big o shape. The sudden thud sound made him jump up in shock.
He looks around his surroundings to find the source of the sound, only to see a little boy weeping loudly.

He's a little hesitant to approach the unknown boy first but his mama always told him to help others and being the good boy he is, he immediately went to his side.

The little boy is crouched on the ground, his hands clenched into tiny fists as he rubbed his tears away. Yoongi tried to say something but the boy wouldn't stop crying. So he did what his mama always does to him whenever he is feeling sad.

He hugs the little boy, his hands patting his head and back. Soon after the sniffles calmed down and Yoongi finally released him from his hold. The boy stared at him with his big glossy eyes, his lips still quivering.

" Don't cry. Big boys don't cry."
He places his hand on his shoulder giving him his gummy smile.
Jimin stops shaking on seeing the other smile. He sucks up his tears and forces a smile through because Jimin is a big boy.

" Good."
Yoongi pats his head like a puppy, Jimin's happy giggles indicates that he liked the gesture.
" What's your name ?"
He helps the boy stand up, rubbing off the dust from his clothes.
" Jimin." He answers in his cute voice.

" I'm Yoongi." Yoongi extends his hand in front of Jimin. Jimin stares at it for a second before finally shaking it.
" How old are you Jimin ?"
" Four." He says confidently while showing him three fingers.

" That's three fingers."
Yoongi corrects him. Jimin instantly opens up his fourth finger, cheeks heating up in embarrassment. It's then when Yoongi notices the bruise on his knees and that he's bleeding.

" You are hurt."
He says pointing down at his wound. Jimin looks down at his knees, the sudden pain rushing through him once he notices his scraped knees. His lower lip wobbles, ready to let out another cry.

" No, no, don't cry."
Yoongi panics on seeing the tears forming in his eyes. He tries to relax him but the younger one is already on the verge of crying.
" Don't cry. I'll put a kitty bandaid on it and it'll be okay."
The 'kitty' bandaid trick seemed to work on him because soon he stopped crying.

" You like kitty ?"
Jimin nods to that, his mood already lifting up at the mention of it.
" Come. Let's go to my home."
Yoongi holds out his hand for him, Jimin doesn't think twice before holding it and walking away with Yoongi.

They look like the cutest babies with their chubby cheeks and tiny hands ( Jimin just has extra tiny hands). They swing their arms happily, hands messily holding onto each other and footsteps matching.

Yoongi signs Jimin to stay silent once he reaches his house. His house is close to the park where he was playing earlier so it didn't take them much time to get here.

He tries to sneak him in silently but his footsteps drop once he sees his mom standing in front of the doorway.
" Mama..."
He whispers. Jimin tries his best to hide behind Yoongi, peeking at the women from behind him.

" Oh, you're back and who's this little guy ?" Her voice softens once she notices the cute child behind him. She crouches down to their level flashing a warm smile to Jimin.

" He's my friend Jimin. He hurt himself."
He tries to push Jimin in front of his mother, showing his wounded knees.
" Oh poor baby, you're hurt ?"
Jimin nods at that, his pouty lips turning to a sad frown.

" Come on, I'll patch you up."
She holds out her hand for him, Jimin stares at Yoongi for a second before taking her hand. Yoongi follows them into the living room helping Jimin to climb up onto the sofa.

" I'll apply this and then you'll be fine." She shows Jimin the ointment.
" Mama, wait." Yoongi stops her.
" What's wrong baby ?"
" He wants the kitty ones."
Yoongi points at the kitty bandaids that his mother bought specially for him.

" You want the kitty ones ?"
She looks over at Jimin. He's too shy to say anything so he just nods his head in response
" Sure, sweetheart."
She rubs her hand over Jimin's hair , not being able to resist the need to pat him.

" Here done."
She closed down the first aid box.
" Thank you."
Jimin jumps down from the sofa bowing down to show respect to her.

" Aigo you're such an adorable kid."
She scoops him closer into her arms.
" Did you tell your mom you were coming here ?"
He shook his head as no, his face falling on the mention of his mother.

" Oh baby, don't worry. We'll drop you off at your house."
Jimin looks at her with hope filled eyes.
" You know your address, right ?"
He nods, Jiminie is a big boy. Of course he knows his address.

" Let me lock the house then. You both wait outside."
She ruffles their hairs once again before disappearing somewhere into the house.

Yoongi steps closer to Jimin, grabbing his tiny hands.
" Don't worry. Mama will find your house."
He smiles at the younger and Jimin is unable to stop himself from returning the smile.

They smiled, not knowing how their fates were entwined with each other. How a simple thing would lead to a big change in their futures.

Some things really happen because of God's will. And Yoongi would go so far as to say that meeting Jimin was one of them.
