"I bet he would love to work with you, Jimin. Yoongi is a very famous photographer and I'm pretty sure Jin and Taehyung have already met him. You should contact him."
- Mom

"Mom, I'm not going to Busan for work. I want to spend some time with Dad!"
-Jimin

"Do you really believe that your father's going to be around you 24/7? He's a workaholic, we both know that."
-Mom

"He's not the only one. You're not better."
-Jimin

"Really funny, son. I'm not that bad. Anyway, I'll send you a picture of Yoongi's card."
-Mom

Jimin put his phone away. Why bother asking him, if his mother had already decided to make them work together?

"Sir, are you comfortable in your seat? Can I get you something to drink before we take off?" a young stewardess asked.

"A glass of water, maybe," he answered and charmingly smiled at her. The girl started blushing and quickly left to get his drink.

He leaned back and closed his eyes. The model was really excited to see his father again, but at the same time, he felt nervous too. Because of his parents' divorce, Jimin didn't talk to him as much as he used to and wondered if his hero and role model had changed since their last meeting. He also hoped to improve their relationship by visiting him after not seeing each other for nearly seven months.

"I should call Jihyun. He probably doesn't know about me going back to Busan," he murmured to himself and thanked the woman who brought him the water he had asked for.

"Hello?"

Jimin smiled weakly. He had missed his younger brother's sweet voice.

"Jihyun, it's me. Jimin."

"Hyung? You finally called! How are you doing?"

"Good, and you? I feel like we have to catch up on a lot of things."

"Yes we do! You're always too busy, Hyung. At least I get to see you on TV every day."

"Ugh, tell me about it. I feel like the media knows more about me than I do. How's school? Are you still getting good grades?"

He heard the younger laugh on the other line and couldn't help but smile at the thought of his happy face.

"You're just like Mom, Hyung. She always asks me if I'm eating or sleeping enough. But yeah, I'm doing fine. College is hard, but doable."

"Well, it's important Jihyun-ah. Take care of your health and have fun, but don't neglect school. Dad didn't send you to America for nothing."

"I know, I know. Don't worry, everything's good."

"What about Yeri? Are you guys still together?"

"Of course we are. She actually wants me to meet her parents soon."

"That's great! I'm sure they'll like you."

"Do you think so? Her father is a cop. What if I make him upset?"

"He won't shoot you, silly. As long as you treat her kindly, you don't have to worry about it," Jimin laughed.

"I guess. Anyway, how's Taehyung doing? And Jin? I miss them!"

"They miss you too. We talk about you sometimes, you know. They're all very proud of you."

"That's good to hear, Hyung. Now I feel even more nervous about my upcoming exams."
