The overcast sky in Istanbul this time became their travel companion towards Taehyung's residence. The rain had subsided a moment ago, and now there was only silence between the two of them. Yoon-gi never expected Taehyung to change much after his departure 7. He's getting older and more handsome, only now impressed cold and untouchable. It was like there was a thick Diding that he deliberately woke up in her.
" Did Hoseok tell you I was coming?"
" no. Soobin tells Hyung that he will be here. He got the message from Yuri Imo. Maybe Hoby Hyung told him to."
Yoongi just nodded his head understandingly. How did Yoon-gi manage to meet Taehyung so casually after 7 years? The answer is because 2 years ago Yoon-gi accidentally met him here, while he was on a business trip alone. And of course that makes him happy. Everyone was already trying hard to find Taehyung, and he was able to find him. However bitter things must be accepted, he must keep his meeting with Taehyung secret from everyone except Hoseok, because Taehyung who asked him also for a reason that he could not explain.
Here, Taehyung is known by the name V alias Vante. A successful young entrepreneur develops a career in this foreign country. 7 years ago he was sent here with Soobin. Yuri's cousin is 3 years younger than Taehyung. But despite being young, Soobin is very clever and genius, almost matching Jungkook.
Their lives here cannot be smooth, because Taehyung wants to start everything from scratch. He even had to move back and forth between college and going to work, maybe it was also as a way to get busy and forget all the problems in his heart.
The last time Yoongi met Taehyung was a year ago, and he was still the same when he treated her. Yoongi regrets Taehyung's decision to return to Korea. That makes him a little sad. After all they had been friends from childhood, it was hard for him not to worry about her just like that. Especially in this foreign country.
This European-style house is Taehyung's residence here. This is a gift from his superiors because of his good performance and always competent. Previously Taehyung was alone with Soobin, not really two anyway there are some servants who deliberately hired there just to cook and clean the house. But now Yoon-gi will be occupying it for a few days.
Yoon-gi walked up to Taehyung's big steps, a little hard to remember her petite stature. His steps came to a halt when he heard a call from someone from upstairs. And Yoongi was not surprised to hear that shrill cry aimed at him.
" You've arrived, Hyung. Bring no ramyon? Soobin was gonna eat that."
" Come down first, it's dangerous. Hyung brought a lot for you."
Yoongi was really worried that the boy would fall. How could he casually sit at the edge of the roof like that without the slightest fear. Plus it was raining pretty hard. The air tonight is also very cold and a little windy. While Taehyung does not seem to care at all about the behavior of the one boy.
" But it's cold, Hyung. Especially after rain like this. The air is so fresh, Hyung want to try?"
" Stop playing there, Bin. Or I won't let Yoon Hyung give you your favorite ramen."
Hearing that, of course, made Soobin go straight from there. Out of nowhere, the boy quickly reached the bottom floor. Yoongi even had a chance to catch a tear in case Soobin would fall and end up with a wound. Although Soobin is very smart, for Yoon Soobin still looks cute and childish. Their brief meeting also did not make them awkward, soobin who talked a lot looked enthusiastic when talking to him.
" You're really not cool, Hyung!!! At the office or at home you are the same. Stripper."
" Tell that at the meeting tomorrow morning that's waiting. You haven't prepared that report yet, have you? You know tomorrow Mr. Alexander will come."
Taehyung leaves Yoongi and Soobin who are still grumbling outside. He handed Yoon's suitcase to one of the maids there to take her to the guest room. The cat's eyes still follow where Taehyung steps and disappears into the room on the second floor. His gaze he turned to this high namja beside him.
" Is Taehyung still stubborn and fixed on his stance?"
" Yes, Hyung. I've tried repeatedly to persuade her, but nil. He still won't do it."
Yoongi looked back at Taehyung's room, his gaze turning silent and illegible. He waited for a long time on the lower floor, but Taehyung did not intend to go down anymore. Maybe he's asleep considering it's late at night. Yoon-gi decides to enter his room on the 2nd floor, in front of Taehyung's room. When he arrived, only silence was felt. Maybe Yoon-gi will try talking again in the morning. Not knowing it, the owner of the room in front of him was sitting pensive and only saw the moon in the dark of the night. I don't know if I'm thinking about what no one will know.
This morning's rain seems to be a little bothering Yoongi who is still sound asleep in the warm embrace of her thick blanket. The air was quite cold, making him even more curled up in search of warmth. Until he remembered about the schedule of perfume orders that Hoseok wanted. He must provide a sample today so that the day after tomorrow Hoseok can immediately take it. Maybe he will also speed up his company meeting so that the problem is soon finished, and later he can walk around this city.
While heading to the dining table, Yoon-gi sees only a few maids tidying up the dining table and some cleaning the house. He saw neither Taehyung nor Soobin. Maybe they haven't woken up yet, but it's 8 in the morning. Or could it be that Yoon-gi was misfortune and did not have time to greet them. There was something he wanted to talk about, but again there was no chance for him.
" Do you need anything sir?" (Do you need anything, sir?)
" No, thank you. Where are Mr. The V and Soobin? Haven't they woken up yet?" (No, thanks. Where are Mr V and Soobin? Are they not awake?)
" r. V had left early this morning. He has a meeting this morning with Mr. Alexander. Maybe he'll be home this afternoon, sir." (Mister V left this morning. He had a meeting this morning with Mr. Alexander. Maybe he'll come home later in the afternoon, sir.)
" I see. Thanks, you can continue your work. Sorry to disturb."(( So yeah. Thank you, you can continue your work. Sorry to interrupt.)
" No problem, sir. Then I'll excuse myself."(( No problem, sir. Then I'll excuse you.)
Yoongi did not think, how could they leave so early when they had just returned home early this morning. Are they not tired, have they always been like this. Yoongi was worrying more and more about Taehyung at this time. It was like he wanted to destroy himself by working desperately like this. However, Yoon-gi should talk to Taehyung later. He must stop his stubborn attitude. Yoon-gi rushes to get ready to leave the house, he has to finish his business first and then talks to Taehyung.
This afternoon Jimin could not concentrate at all. His mind was still centered on that tiny namja. He repeatedly tries to contact Yoon-gi, but remains inactive. He planned to follow him there, but other problems arose. All flights were cancelled over the next 3 days due to bad weather. Plus the company is having problems demanding that it stay in Korea. Jungkook no longer bothered if Jimin would go. But again he feels this is also part of his responsibility as a company employee.
" young... Be calm. You're getting me confused. If you want to be able to use my private jet, but I also doubt if any pilots would take off in this weather."
" I don't know why I don't feel good, Kook. Yoongi Hyung didn't turn on his phone, we didn't meet yesterday either."
Could it be that Yoongi deliberately disabled her phone? Jimin continued to sink into his mind and did not listen to Jungkook's words that had been spoken to him since. And that certainly made Jungkook a little furious. He approached Jimin who was still daydreaming on the office sofa, patting his older shoulder gently.
" Hyung, didn't you listen to what I said?"
" ha? Are you talking to me?"
If not because he respected Jimin and his family, maybe now Jungkook has beaten Jimin who is still daydreaming during working hours like this.
" You mean the proposal our company is planning in Germany? Why do we have to go there? Shouldn't Leo be the one to handle it all."
" It's okay, Hyung. Just don't know why Kookie wants to go there, too. Besides, this is also your chance to chase after Yoon Hyung, right?"
" How do we get there with this weather?"
" We will depart from Japan hyung, in 3 days we leave. I heard that Hoseok Hyung will also leave from there. Now he's been to Japan by ship."
" You're still spying on that guy, Kook? It's been 7 years."
" She's the only one I believe knows where Taehyung is right now, Hyung. But strangely Hoseok Hyung looks relaxed and does not care about anything. As well as all the info from cell phones, laptops and others there is nothing awkward, it seems very clean like someone is setting everything."
" Are you sure, Kook? Is there anyone smarter than you?"
" Kookie doesn't know either, Hyung. But this is a little strange. Every time Kookie tries to find Taehyung's whereabouts, all the data suddenly disappears. Like someone deliberately shuts all access."
" If you had gotten into such a predicament, it would have been a genius or it could have been a hacker."
Jungkook just fell silent. Maybe it's true what Jimin said. There must have been someone who deliberately closed all accesses and deleted all information about Taehyung, since it was usually not this complicated for him just to look for someone like this.
Yoongi had just finished his business with the company he was working with. Previously, he had submitted a perfume sample order Hoseok and tomorrow he will take it. Now that he was confused about what else, his business was done. Wanted to take a walk for a while but he didn't know the way at all. He wanted to contact Taehyung and Soobin but he remembered they were in a meeting too. Forced he walked down the path on the edge of the river that is quite pampering the eyes. The business of going home, he can think about later. Even if he had to not know the way he would contact Taehyung or Soobin to pick him up.
Yongi just wanted to calm his mind for a moment. His relationship with Jimin has made no progress at all, only looking like a co-worker or close friend. Yoongi did not deny his feelings for the narrow-eyed young man. Sometimes he thought to express his feelings first, but he was too embarrassed and increasingly not brave let alone a lot of more interesting figures from him around him.
Thinking about all that for too long, he was a little surprised to realize that he had not activated his phone from yesterday. His parents were very worried about not getting any news from him. But once he activated his phone, so many call notifications from Jimin. Even from his watch, he could see it as he was about to take off. What the hell is it? Does he have to call her back?
Not yet had time for Yoongi to press the call button, her phone rang an incoming call sign. He thought it was Jimin who called him back, but it was his best friend.... Hoseoks.
" Hello... What's the matter you called me? Aren't you coming here tomorrow?"
" I'm checking in at the airport, Hyung. All flights in Korea will be cancelled in the next 3 days. This is all I have to leave Japan. Oh yea... You gave me that sample, didn't you, Hyung? Hana always urged me to bring her home immediately!"
" I gave it to the owner this morning. Tomorrow afternoon can be taken he said."
" Thank God, then, I don't want my son to be upset later because his Omma wishes are not obeyed. Oh yes, Hyung.... My plane is waiting. Wait for me to come, Hyung... Make sure Soobin picks me up this time."
" all right... I'll give it to you later."
Yoongi again sighed, if not for the reason of Hana's pregnancy maybe he would have rejected the wishes of his best friend. He would rather stay at home and sleep than go around in such an uncertain direction. The ringing of his phone again interfered, this time Soobin who contacted him. Maybe their meeting is over.
" Yes, Bin.... Is the meeting over?"
" Where is Hyung? Why isn't it home? Hyung doesn't come back to Korea anymore, does he? He said Hyung wanted to go for a walk, why go alone!"
Yoon-gi smiled at the line of questions addressed to her. Soobin was really chatty, how Taehyung was able to stay with her for these 7 years. Must be exhausting.
" You forgot what Hyung came here for? Hyung just finished a meeting with the company that Hyung worked with. You never worry so, Bin_ah.... Hyung just take a short walk, another hour Hyung will be home."
" Then Soobin's there now. V Hyung will be mad at me if you go alone especially if it gets lost. Tell me where is Hyung now?"
" You don't have to catch up with him. Yoon-gi-hyung is with me."
Yoon-gi was surprised when someone took her phone and said that. Even he did not wait for Soobin's answer first and immediately turned off the connection just like that. The flat object was returned to her without showing any expression.
" You shouldn't talk to her like that, Tae.... Soobin must be worried about me right now."
While the person he was talking to was silent without answering his question. What exactly did he come here for, if he just kept quiet like this without even talking to him.
" You're just gonna shut up like that or explain why you got here?"
" Nothing. Just accidentally saw you."
" Tae..... Why did you stop pe-/hyung, can you not force me to do it. That's enough for me like this. Let time define everything."
Yoongi just looked at the silent namja in front of him. No longer can force because this is all his decision.
' Are you sure you're gonna give up on everything so soon, Tae? You still have someone who is always in your heart. And Hyung knows who that person is.'
