BTS HYYH Notes (Book 1, 2, BUS Game) // COMPLETE [Part 2]

2022, Apr 20 - Hoseok (Where's Jimin?)

[Place: Two Star Burger]

Two Star Burger became jam-packed with people in a flash. The people who jumped into the burger joint to avoid the sudden shower looked lost as they all stared out the dark window. The rain that had started from the clear blue sky soon turned into a downpour. It became dark outside the window, like night with the lightning cutting across the black clouds. The air became heavy and wet with the moisture from the rain and from the people inside the burger joint.

There was a sharp sound of alert. At first, it sounded like something falling around on the floor with the people apologizing and sidestepping. A similir sound came from the other side. Then came "beep," "beep-beep," a shrill metal sound. Unnerved, the people turned around, with the beep still ringing here and there. My phone inside my pocket vibrated. It was an alert text.

And suddenly, I saw Jimin across the room. Or a student who looked like Jimin.

"Park Jimin!" I yelled his name, but he must not have heard me because he simply disappeared behind a pillar.

I jumped over the counter and followed after him.

One week ago, I had met up with my high school friends. Seeing them again was as unexpected as the time we had gone our separate ways. I was happy to see them, but that wasn't all.

Someone asked, "Have you been in contact with Jimin?"

The last time I had seen Jimin was when we had a fit and got carried away to the hospital.

The boy turned around. He was a young student in a school uniform. I looked out the window and saw my own reflection. I was standing in the pouring rain. I was in the crowd of people, but I was alone at the same time. Everyone looked scared with the dark and heavy air hanging over us.
