Out of all the weapons you
fight with,
Your silence is the most violent

"You have got to be kidding me," Jimin said between gritted teeth.

There, inside his flat and sitting casually on his cozy couch is a raven-haired male dressed from head to toe with Gucci.

Jimin crossed his arms and glared at the intruder, who only grins at him and adjusted himself on his expensive couch to be more comfortable.

"Hi hyung," the male greeted and Jimin rolls his eyes hard.

"Hyung? You only call me that if you needed something," he scoffs and walks his way towards his kitchen to make himself some breakfast.

Yes, breakfast. Because it's freaking 8am.

It's 8am and yet, the other person inside his house looks like he just went home from a night of clubbing.

"C'mon hyung, don't be like that." He heard the said person whine like a little child.

Jimin say nothing and continues to make himself some breakfast - consists of cereal, milk, and a cup of coffee.

He started eating as soon as he sat down on a stool, ignoring the rough footsteps coming towards him.

"Yah Park Jimin -"

"Not now Kim Taehyung. Let me enjoy my breakfast first."

The male, whose name was Kim Taehyung, pouts and sits down on one of the stools infront of Jimin. He then puts his elbow on the table, and places his chin on his palm.

Kim Taehyung, was Jimin's bestfriend.

Keyword; WAS.

They were classmates since elementary school until their 2nd year of highschool, before Taehyung went to France to continue his studies.

Taehyung came back when he graduated though, but the two never really hang out that much since then.

And also because of one factor that actually made them grew apart.

Taehyung waits patiently for Jimin to finish his breakfast, and when he did; he instantly opens his mouth to speak.

"I need your help,"

"Which isn't surprising but, okay." Jimin answered while washing his bowl.

The two boys never stated that their friendship was over, and Jimin really hopes it isn't.

Because even if he doesn't admit it, Taehyung will always be his bestfriend.

And he hopes that Taehyung feels the same.

"I need a muse. Do you know someone?"

The orange-haired male irked an eyebrow in interest. He wipes his hands with some fresh towel and faces Taehyung.

"A muse? Is it another exhibition?" He asked and his friend nods his head.

Taehyung, is a painter; a famous one.

He loves art and started painting when he was 5, and actually graduated with a degree in Arts and Designs, then proceeded to be a painter.

His name - well, his 'alias' was known in the whole Asia, but his face wasn't.

Jimin doesn't know why he hides his face though, all he knows is his 'alias' is a little weird - because it's just one letter only, which is 'V'.

"I need it because i will be opening up an art gallery next month, and guess what? It's a collaboration actually." Taehyung stated as he follows Jimin, who is now walking his way towards the living room.

"A collaboration?" The orange-hair asked once he sat down, and melts instantly because of the softness of his couch.

If course, it's expensive so it has to be comfortable.

His friend nods and sits besides him,

"Guess who i am collaborating with?"

"Who?"

"Gloss,"

Jimin widens his eyes at that name, and looks at Taehyung like he isn't believeing him.

"No way .." Was all he mumbles.

Gloss, is another famous painter whose identity is also unknown. He is really famous, maybe more famous than Taehyung himself.

Some says he was a genius, a prodigy, a one-of-a-kind artist. He was called "The Van Gogh of South Korea", and his painting has been hang on many galleries all through out the whole world.

He also has many fans, including Jimin.

Jimin is really a big big fan, and even if he doesn't understand art that much - he totally knows how to appreciate it.

The first painting he ever saw was Gloss's, and it was indeed a masterpiece.

He loves how Gloss made used of the three main colors - red, blue, yellow - to interpret many emotions in one.

Jimin never knew that one painting will lead him to many more, and he instantly fell inlove.

He will always wait for a new painting and go to every gallery his art will be placed. He always waited, for him.

But suddenly, no more paintings emerged from Gloss.

It's like he vanished completely, no news or whatsoever.

He's been gone for 2 years now, leaving only his old paintings that are now slowly being forgotten.

Jimin looks at Taehyung, a shock still evident on his cute face.

"Y-You're lying!" He exclaimed, and his friend just laugh.

"Trust me Jimin, i will never lie about this if it's you."

Yes, Taehyung knows how big of a fan Jimin is of Gloss.

"So, wanna help me?"

Jimin thinks for a second, before he decided to ask his friend an important question.

"Have - Have you, met Gloss?"

Taehyung's eyes suddenly glinted in mischief, and delight.

He leans closer to Jimin in an attempt to whisper his answer, and Jimin leans closer too.

"I have,"
