"Lily. I'm sorry."

"Hey! It's Jungkookie's birthday on the 1st. We're throwing a surprise party for him since it will also be a send-off party before he goes into the military service."
"Wow! I missed Kookie."
"That's why I'm inviting you to come celebrate with us. Jin-hyung and Yoongi hyung asked for you to come too."
"Huh? Uhm.. do you think,... it's a good idea?"
"Why not?"
"Do you really have to ask?"
"You'll be coming for our maknae and not for him. Besides, I think it's time for you to talk and end things formally."
"Don't you think he should have done that two years ago before he got married?"
"Why don't you come to the party and ask him that?"
"Why me?"
"Why not? Don't tell me you still haven't moved on. I mean, I know it's hard but you're better now, right?"
"I don't know."
"You won't know until you get to see him personally."
There was a few seconds of silence.
"So, should I pick you up at work or at home?"
"I hate you, you know?"
"Alayo! (I know)"

Lily went to the mall to buy a gift for her little brother Kookie. She still knows what he wants and choosing a gift brought back so many memories with them.... especially with Hoseok.
"Can I really face him now?"
"What would I tell him?"
"Can I be mad? Should I punch his beautiful face?"
"Would tears fall when we get the chance to talk?"
Beep beep!!
A loud honk brought Lily back to her senses. The car stopped in front of her and the driver stepped out.
"Hi! I'm sorry I had to drop by the bake shop for the cake."
"Woah! Joon-a!!! You drive now?"
"Well, yea."
"Daebak! (Great!)", she can't believe that the man who didn't want to get a license before is now driving his own car.
Namjoon's cheek turned red and he immediately tried to hide it and opened the passenger's side door. He assisted Lily, took the paper bag she's holding and put it at the back seat.
He carefully drove back to Hannam The Hill where they all still live.

🎶 "Saengil chukhahamnida, saengil chukhahamnida, saranghaneun Jungkookie.... saengil chukhahamnida!!"🎶
Kookie's still the baby they all knew. He cried after being surprised by his family. All his closest friends, parents and brother are present to celebrate with him. He hugged all of them.
"Lily noona!!!", he bawled upon seeing his favorite noona. He hugged her tight and she kissed his forehead.
Lily's heart jumped a little. It feels like a reunion with all of them. "Uri maknae saengil chukha (Happy birthday our youngest)."
Jungkook got busy entertaining his guests while Yoongi, Jin and Namjoon were catching up with Lily. Jimin and Tae are already rendering their service in the military. Hoseok told Jin that he will be late since he'll be coming from Gwangju.
