ANSWER ( 대답 )

" Life is filled with unanswered questions, but it is the courage to seek those answers that continues to give meaning to life. You can spend your life wallowing in despair, wondering why you were the one who was led towards the road strewn with pain, or you can be grateful that you are strong enough to survive it. "

- J.D. Stroube

Same silence, same heavy atmosphere.

Nana looked at the scenery changing before her. The sky was no longer a pale blue, but orangish and the clouds were almost tainted pink. She turned on the radio thinking it could fill this heavy silence as one of her favorite songs started playing. It was almost the end of the song, but she couldn't help humming along while nodding her head to the rhythm.

As she did that, she heard a faint chuckle from her left. She was startled to see Jimin biting his lips to restrain himself from smiling.

" What are you smiling for? Have you ever seen someone enjoying themselves while listening to music before? "

He finally laughed and pinched her cheek with his right hand. Surprised, she gently pushed his hand away and scoffed.

" Hey Jimin, where are we going now? Do you have a place where we could stay instead of a motel? " She asked him after turning down the music.

A silent agreement was made to call each other by their name comfortably.

" I actually do. " He admitted. " It's not too far from here. However, I have to take the long route in case anyone might be following us. If I took a short cut we would already be there. " She nodded.

While she was thinking about the hospital, she remembered Taehyung and Hoseok. She wondered how they were doing. She was already missing Taehyung's smile and reassuring words.

" Say... How is that place that we are heading to? Is it beautiful? "

" It is. " He simply answered.

She hated it when he was doing that. Answering with one or two words.

" How does it look like? Is it near the sea, or near the mountains? "

" You will see. " He replied.

She scoffed, " Can't you once in your life make a full sentence, and explain? "

" I can. " He replied.

If stares could kill, Park Jimin would already be dead by now.

" You are making fun of me aren't you? "

He chuckled, " You are catching on quickly. "

That damn bastard.

Nana gave up and turned around while crossing her arms. He was indeed a master with words. she turned up the radio and focused back on the scenery passing before her.

A bit later, she felt someone gently shaking her up. She pushed their hands away since she wasn't fully awake yet, and turned around her seat. But that wasn't a good idea.

The young woman felt her body being wrapped and carried by two strong arms. She flinched at the sudden skin contact. When she opened her eyes, she was astounded to see that she was held in Jimin's embrace before she noticed that they were heading toward a big house, or should she say, a mansion.

She was in awe in front of the big house before she felt Jimin's grip holding her tighter.

" You can put me down, you know. "
