"What are you talking about?" Jungkook questions as he is shocked, and has no idea what is going on, at the moment.

Seokjin holds the old watch which was given to him by the old man whom he met at the hospital in front of Jungkook's face. "It is all because of this," He says, and gets lost in his thoughts for a moment to figure something out. "I was the one who wished to turn back the clock," He face palms himself. "That's why Namjoon doesn't remember me."

"Okay, what is going on?" Jungkook still has no idea what has happened to Seokjin, but he knows one thing for sure that he is awake, and he is not dreaming. "Have you lost your mind?"

"Oh my god—" Seokjin remembers what he exactly wished when he was talking to the old man at the hospital, which causes him to scream. "I fucking wished to turn back time to make it new again, to start it all over!"

"You're insane," Jungkook says, and turns his back on him in order to enter his car, but Seokjin grips his wrist. "Look, I always try my best to help you, but this—" He is cut off when Seokjin's precious tear drops escape his eyes like diamonds, and seeing Seokjin staring at him in the eyes like a lost little boy, makes it even harder for him to speak.

Nothing is said between the two. They prefer to remain silent, and breathe in the cold air while the wind is touching their soft skins. They prefer to have a secret communication, and of course, to feel this empty silence which is filled with hidden words behind their faces.

Jungkook does not exactly know what is happening, but he decides to trust his best friend although it is hard for him to believe such things that sound like a dream.

Now, Seokjin knows that he has turned back the clock to the moment when he and Namjoon did not really know each other, but the problem is Namjoon, because he is the one who does not remember his boy friend. Maybe, it is all because of Seokjin's wish. Starting life all over again is not that easy, but Seokjin will do his best to make Namjoon fall for him again, and of course, to make sure that nothing bad is going to happen to the people whom he loves the most.

But, there will always, always be consequences, no?

Seokjin wraps his arms around Jungkook's neck, and rests his head on his friend's shoulder. "Thank you for being here, Jungkook." After hearing this coming out of Seokjin's mouth, a sweet smile appears on Jungkook's face, and he lets go of his friend.

Suddenly, Jungkook's cellphone starts to ring, and he pulls it out of his pocket. After taking a look at the phone screen, and seeing the name of the person who is calling him, his eyes meet with Seokjin's.

Concerned, Seokjin waits for Jungkook to say something, because he can see the worried look on his face, not to mention that he has already read the anxiety in his friend's eyes.

"Who is it, Jungkook?"

"Who is it, Jungkook?"
