5 months after Yoongi's death

Yoongi's mother has been looking at his childhood photos for the past hour. She misses him a lot and the house feels so empty without him. It has been 5 months and she is still not used to being alone like this

She heads to his room, something that she does every time she feels like crying. The room reminds her of Yoongi a lot. She sits on his desk and stares at his books. One thing in particular catches her attention. There is a key in the middle of his books, the key chain seems very unfamiliar. Her mother takes the key out and looks at it

"It isn't the house key," she says

"Is there a diary for this key?" she looks around but doesn't find anything

Suddenly she sees the first drawer of his desk. She looks at the keyhole and then at the key and tries her luck. The key is a perfect match. She opens the desk and to her surprise, there is nothing inside but a white envelope and a note.

"Why did he have to lock this drawer only for a letter?" she says to herself

She takes the envelope and looks at the note.

it says

His mother feels the envelope and it is quite thick. She doesn't have the courage to open it up. She looks at the date and the address. The date that it was written was the day before his death. And the address, his mother has never seen this address before.

She still respects Yoongi's request not to open it. She takes the letter downstairs and heads outside to post it

"Mom, I'll be late tonight," Jennie says out loud. She puts on mascara very carefully not to ruin the eye makeup that took her more than an hour to do

"You come home late every day. What has gotten into you? Do you need to party every night?" her mother says

Jennie focuses on putting her mascara flawlessly without answering her. She fans her lashes with her hands to dry it quickly and says

"Come on mom, give me a break. This is the last day of vacation. From tomorrow, I have to attend school again, the same boring routine. At least let us party out hearts out tonight" she says

"I can't believe you're gonna start your senior year from tomorrow. You didn't spend any time with me during this vacation. Your friends are more important than you?" her mother says

Suddenly Irene honks her car from outside. They are here already

"Obviously you're more important," Jennie says, takes her bag and kisses her mother lightly trying not to ruin her lipstick

"I'll leave now," she says and leaves the room. Her mother can hear her heels clatter as she steps down the stairs

"Girl, you're looking hot," Irene says as soon as Jennie comes out the door

"I didn't have much time. I am not satisfied, I did everything so quickly" Jennie says

"Are you kidding me? Taehyung is going to drool today" Lisa jokes

"Good for him," Jennie says being a bit moody as soon as Taehyung's name is brought up

"Where are the boys?" she asks

"They're gonna go together. The had a game today so they'll directly go to club from there" Rose replies

"Let's go then. What are we waiting for?" Jennie says to Irene

"I can't believe Junior years are over and we'll be seniors from tomorrow," she says and drives away

Irene's car pulls up in front of the club and they all get out.

"I love this music," Lisa says loudly as they enter the club

"Girls, here," Jungkook says from near the bar

Taehyung, Jungkook, and Jimin are there

Rose kisses Jungkook while Jennie looks at Taehyung. He is staring at the glass of wine without looking at them

"Let's dance," Lisa says and drags the girls to the dance floor

Rose asks Jungkook to dance with her and he follows. This is the last day of vacation and they want to party like crazy

"You're not coming?" Jimin asks Taehyung

"Not in the mood" Taehyung replies

"Dude, I know what you need," he says and passes him a key

"I have someone waiting for you upstairs on Room 112," he says

Taehyung smirks "You never fail to disappoint me," he says

"What am I here for, huh? Have fun" Jimin says

Taehyung drinks the last bit of wine left in his glass and takes the key

Jennie is on the dancing floor but her eyes are on Taehyung

"I, sometimes want to kill Jimin," she says to Lisa

"Why? What happened?" Lisa asks

"Don't you remember? After taehyung broke up with me and that bitch left the town he started drinking so much. I think these days he keeps hooking up with random girls and Jimin is the one behind this" she says in an angry voice

"Don't worry Jen. Jimin is just looking out after him. At least hooking up with other girls is better than taking drugs and drinking like a maniac, isn't it? And it is not new for Taehyung, so don't get bothered by this. He'll come back to you at the end of the day. Jimin is just making sure that he doesn't resort to drinks again." Lisa replies

"I can't believe I've been running behind the same guy for the past year," Jennie says

"Who said you're running behind him? How many times did you guys hook up already?" Lisa winks

"Urgh, I know but he is so casual about it. As if I am the same as the other girls he hooks up with" she says

"Stop thinking about it and enjoy it tonight. We've had a great year, don't you think? Our bond just became stronger and the entire school literally bows down to us and everyone wants to be a part of our squad" Lisa says

"Part of our squad? My ass. They can only dream" Jennie mocks them

"By the way, where is your man?" she asks

"He just messaged me saying that there is an emergency," Lisa says being sullen

"Nevermind. You are not going to die if you party without him one night" Jennie says

"I feel like I might" Lisa jokes

Taehyung walks up the stairs and searches for room 112. He opens the door and there she is, lying on the bed with a blanket on top of her

Park Yura

She is from the same college as Taehyung but a year junior. A stereotypical nerd with an innocent face and surprisingly good fashion sense. She wears big glasses in college and rejects every guy that proposes her. Although Taehyung himself has never given much attention to her, the other guys would die to be with her. She acts as if none of them really matters to her and she isn't bothered by them

But the same nerd is between the sheets waiting for Taehyung

"Damn Jimin. How did you pull up this magic?" Taehyung thinks to himself

"I've been waiting for you for such a long time," Yura says and pretends to be upset

Taehyung smirks and closes the door behind

Downstairs, Jimin and others are dancing as if tomorrow doesn't exist.

"Group selfie," Jennie says as they gather around the dance floor and clicks a picture

She posts the picture on Instagram with the caption

"My squad> your squad"

The rest of the night passes as they keep dancing and drinking, enjoying the last few bits of freedom before school starts tomorrow

***

Jennie enters the school with her girls and as they walk down the hall together, everyone admires them as usual

"Nice outfit"

"Jennie I love you"

"Omg Rose you look so cute" other students compliment them but the girls pretend as if none of them exists

"There they are," Rose says spotting Jimin, Jungkook, and Taehyung in front of the locker and they join them

"Where were you last night?" Jennie asks Taehyung

"In the club, obviously" Taehyung replies half-heartedly

"But I didn't see you," Jennie says

"Cause he was very busy" Jimin jokes and Taehyung smirks

Suddenly they can hear someone's scream down the hall

"OMG, is that you?" the person says

All of them look at the direction from where the scream came and Lisa drops the books she was holding on the ground

"Is that--" Irene stutters

"It can't be," Rose says

"Jisoo?" Jungkook says being surprised and as soon as Taehyung hear that name, he immediately looks up to see the person that they are staring at

The girl that they are seeing looks like Jisoo only by the face but apart from that, nothing matches the old Jisoo

Her hair color is changed completely. From the previous black color that used to make her look so innocent, now she has a dark Wine Red color which makes her look fierce. Even the length of her hair is shorter than before

She is wearing a black mesh top with a tank top underneath, a pair of black ripped shorts, and a pair of black heels with straps that tie up to her knees. There is a tattoo just beside her neck in the collarbone area. The sheer mesh top makes the tattoo look prominent.

with the word NAIVE written on top of it.

She is walking towards them while everyone is gathering around to see the new Jisoo.

Taehyung looks at her for some time trying to find similarity between her and the one he knew but he finds none. The Jisoo he knew used to be shy and mindful of others while walking but the girl in front of him is striding confidently across the hall without giving a damn about anyone else

Lisa and Rose also sees Jisoo walking towards them and they look at each other, their faces are pale, eyes wide open

But someone feels a bit different this time. Jimin. He looks at Jisoo and she is unlike anyone he has ever seen. He never liked Jisoo because he hates girls with innocent and nerdy personality but this time, Jisoo is everything he could want in a girl

Jisoo looks at everyone gathering around her and she doesn't care about them. She is back at the same toxic place after a year but this time, things are going to be different. This time, she is different

She sees Taehyung's gang standing there in the middle of the hall and so many memories flash before her.

"It's been a while, hasn't it?" she thinks to herself and smirks and makes her way towards them

They see Jisoo slowly closing the gap and stand in front of them

"Hi, Jisoo," Rose says nervously and breaks the silence between them

Jisoo takes a glance of all of them

"Move over, you're blocking my locker," she says
