Chapter Twelve: Where

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Aliayah quickly opens his message, ignoring the statement she said earlier about being desperate. When it finally load, she read the message out loud:

"I'm sorry." She had a disoriented look on her face. "..that's it?" She mumbles. Aliayah quickly responds back with a "where are you!? And "It's been weeks! I'm worried!" Impatiently waits for his reply which she receives 15 minutes later. 

"I'm okay, Don't worry. I'll be back soon." And with that, he went offline. Aliayah frowns and she tries to get a hold of him by calling. Unsuccessful with multiple spamming calls, she throws her phone down in irritation. Confused about this entire situation, what was he keeping a secret from her? And why has he finally responded after weeks of being dead on her? With zero answers to her questions, Aliayah decided to take matters into her own hands. 

Aliayah arrived at Taehyung's place, she caught a cab and paid the man as he went on his way. Aliayah hurried up the door and rang the doorbell, eyeing the camera above. After waiting, the door opens And reveals an older brunette woman with glasses, a dark green sweater and long velvet skirt. Her facial features were somewhat similar to Taehyung so it was obvious she was his mother. Aliayah placed a warm smile, her hands behind her back.

"Hi, is Taehyung home?" She asks, sounding polite. The woman gave her a slight confused look, tilting her just a bit. Aliayah noticed "Oh right, she probably doesn't understand me.." Aliayah softly smiled and pulled out her phone and quickly scrolled for a photo of Taehyung in her gallery. Once she finds one, she shows his mother. "Taehyung, is he here?" Aliayah asks once again. His mother gets a better look at the photo before letting out an "oh" and giggles. "Ah, my son! Okay!" She answers and walks back inside to go get him.

Aliayah sighs with relief, and again waits for Taehyung. Finally the two walked back towards the door and Taehyung's eyes lit up. "Aliayah?, what are you doing here?" Taehyung takes a step out the door, standing directly in front of her. "I need your help on locating Jungkook. After weeks of texting he finally answered me!" She says, showing him the messages. Taehyung sighs "Okay, that's good. But why do you need my help? I told you before that he's a mysterious guy and hard to find." He explained. Aliayah grabs ahold of his hands, staring deep into his eyes.

"And that's where you come in! You know him better and longer! If anything, you're the person I need assistance With! And with these extra pairs of arms I'm sure we can find him in no time!" She exclaimed. Taehyung's cheeks spark up a red hue, and clears his throat. "I-I don't know Aliayah, just because I live with him doesn't mean I know almost everything.." Aliayah pouts and caresses his hands with her thumbs. "Please Tae! This'll mean so much to me, I promise if you help me I'll repay you with anything!" She begs.

Taehyung's face grew even redder and he felt his Palms sweat against Aliayah's. He closes his eyes and sighs deeply. "Alright. Fine, I'll help you find my brother." Aliayah smiles brightly and throws herself onto him, Hugging the male tightly. "Thank you!! You're the best!" She pulls back and hurries down the stairs. "Com'on, if we wanna find Jungkook, we need to hitchhike." 

Taehyung scratches the nape of his neck. "...or can we use my Step dad's car?" He asked, which sounded more like a suggestion. Aliayah chuckles out in embarrassment. "Oh, yeah. Definitely." 

The two heads inside his house, and Aliayah awkwardly stands by the door as she waits for Taehyung to retrieve the keys to his dad's car. His parents were in the kitchen and they were speaking in Korean, and Taehyung appeared behind them waiting for them to finish their conversation. Taehyung nervously asks his father for permission, Aliayah staring at the two before quickly turning away after making eye contact with his father.
