Serendipity

16

Jimin checked the time, it read 4:26, but it felt like midnight to him. He rested his head back into the pillow, fighting the lump in his throat. He wished his friends were here to comfort him, but Taehyung and Jungkook were in Taiwan, and Namjoon and Jin were in America, and honestly, Jimin had no clue where Hoseok was, but he figured Japan. He didn't know though, but he did remember calling him when Yoongi first had disappeared. All current thoughts were purposefully driven out of his mind so he could focus on this. He knew he didn't need to blow this into a big thing, but he needed a distraction as soon as possible. He became invested for the next hour thinking of where Hoseok was and how much of a terrible friend he was because he hadn't even given the older a second thought.

We did have somewhat of a falling out.. but that doesn't give me the right to completely forget about his presence.. I don't know...

Jimin continued his inner battle, until he realized he could just call the older and apologize and ask how he was doing. He needed his anyway, catch up with friends to take his mind off of things.

Jimin's phone rang for what felt like forever, until it finally picked up.

"Hobi!"
"Chim?"
"That's me! I'm really sorry I haven't checked in lately, that last call was literally nothing. I should've asked how you were doing. How is everything?"
"Pretty good I guess."
There was a constant noise in he background, leaving Jimin puzzled,
"What's that noise..?"
"Oh haha I'm driving."
"Ooh! Where to?"
"I'm not sure, I went out on a whim and just started driving."
"Do you know where you're at now?"
"I think just outside of Daegu..? Not sure."
"Ah."
Jimin fell silent, remembering Yoongi was somewhere in Daegu now, waiting to be rescued. If he was still alive. A small voice in his head resounded through him, making him tear up, and the lump in his throat grew bigger and bigger, and he was having trouble choking down sobs that he didn't realize Hoseok's concerned voice.
"Are you ok Jimin?!?!?" He finally shouted, but before Jimin could answer, his screen started buzzing, and it read:
