409.

Tae sat bolt upright on his bed, not knowing why, but he see a sudden explosion of light that’s why he woke up.

His face was tinted with tears, and he doesn’t know its still not stopping. Heart feeling so heavy, did not want to accept it.

“What just happened...?”—

He asked himself as he look around him.

It was his bedroom filled with modernized design. He felt like he’s not familiar of things like this before, but nothing even changed.

“It was a dream...” he whispered ot himself, not actually knowing what to feel.—

He sighed and placed a hand on his chest, it felt so heavy.

He flinched when the door opened, spitting someone that exactly looks like him.

“Oh hyung, you’re awake. I was just about to wake you up.”

It was his brother — Taerin.—

They look identical, very identical that everyone would think they’re twins but they’re not.

They have 10 year age gap, and its really crazy that they both look like each other.

Tae was frozen, he felt like its been so long since he saw his brother again.—

“You have to get up now or we’ll be late for school.” He said.

Taerin was already wearing his school uniform as a highschool student.

Tae slowly nodded, trying to gather himself together. “O-okay, I’ll get dressed now.”

And with that, the door shut close.

Tae hopped out of his bed, feeling a bit overwhelmed at the touch of the soft foam, and soft blankets.

He went straight to the bathroom inside his room, he’s glad he that he can still remember the modern styles.

Going towards the sink, he washed his face.—

Applying some soap on his hands before rubbing them together, and spreading them in his face.

He closed his eyes as he wash his face with water to remove the soap.

As he finished, he turned off the faucet and grabbed the towel beside him.—

His eyes hurt a bit, maybe because he cried so much.

He then remembered that he was stabbed on that dream, having three injuries in total.

He quickly looked down as he lift up his shirt to check his abdomen.

It was clear, he has no injuries.—

He slowly dropped the hem of his shirt to cover back his abdomen.

He sighed and laughed to himself saddly, “Maybe its just really a dream.”

He wiped his face with the towel to dry it.

But as he got a glimpse of himself into the mirror, he saw something.—

A very familiar necklace was around his neck, it flaunted it beauty as the ray of the sun from the window above hit it.

Tae unconsciously dropped the towel, he’s shocked.

His mouth flung onto his mouth, covering it as a tear fell down his cheeks.

It was THAT necklace.—

That necklace who’ll forever have a place in his heart. Even if its just a simple accessory, it meant a lot to him now.

Because it was Jungkook who gave him that.

Sobs came out from his mouth as he couldn’t hold back his tears anymore.

“Its wasn’t a dream...”

413.

Taerin didn’t know why his hyung is so quiet in the whole ride towards their university.

Usually, he stays in the passenger seat beside the driver’s. It was their aunt who’s taking care of them now because both their parents were dead.

He usually play music out loud.—

And sometimes he sings along with the music. He’s also the one to wake up everyone’s spirits in the morning.

But now, Taehyung sat in the passenger’s seat at the back and he’s just quiet as he watch the way they’re passing by.

Taerin sighed, he just let it slide.—

They’ve finally entered their university, splitting ways as highschool & college were on different buildings.

Taerin had gone to his building, but Tae just stood there, exploring his gaze around the university.

This used to be their camping ground in the military.—

He saw a familiar face from afar, and he quickly approached her.

“Good morning Mrs. Min!” He greeted as he bowed. She’s Tae’s history teacher, the one who tasked him for a research paper.

The aforementioned was surprised. “Good morning too, Mr. Kim.”—

She knew Tae doesn’t usually greet her, because he always avoids her.

Tae was hesitating to speak, but he thought that its probably the reason why he flew back to the past.

“I don’t have my research paper prepared, but I can tell you what actually happened to Captain Jeon.”—

Tae’s heart ached at the name.

Mrs. Min paused for a bit, and furrowed her brows in confusion.

“Research paper? What are you talking about?”

Tae’s heart skipped a bit, he felt nervous. “H-Huh? Didn’t you ask me to do a research paper about what happened to Captain Jeon?”—

Tae’s words made Mrs. Min more confused.

“I’m sorry but I don’t remember asking you about that? And why would I ask you to do a research paper about our national hero? Everyone already knows his story, so I don’t really get what you’re talking about.”—

Tae was frozen on his place, he suddenly couldn’t process well.

“Everyone knows...what happened to him?” He slowly asked.

Mrs. Min awkwardly laughed and nodded.

“Of course! You’re acting weird Mr. Kim. I think you should take some rest from studying for a while.”—

And with that, she left.

Tae just stood there, having so much thoughts in his head.

“I really did change the future...didn’t I?” He told himself.

He quickly took out his phone and connected it to the WiFi of their school.—

He searched ‘Captain Jeon’ in google.

And as opposite as what happened before, a lot of results showed up.

He’s in Wikipedia, quora, and many more verified sites. A lot of description was written and he had some pictures too.—

He quickly closed his phone as he felt his heart aching again with the sight of Jungkook.

Tae felt so guilty for leaving him, and he knew that at this time, Jungkook isn’t alive anymore.

He walked in the field with his mind flying. There are lots of students around.—

Tae was so lost in thoughts that he was so surprised when hard rubber object hit his head.

“Aw!”

He cried and he fell onto the ground with the sudden thing. It was a soccer ball.

The books fell on the ground, and he can feel the slight pain on his head.—

He gently massaged that part as he gather his books on the ground.

“Hey! I’m sorry for that, I think I kicked the ball too hard.”

A familiar voice spoke, and some hands suddenly helped him fix his books.

He looked up, only to see him again.—

The guy stood up as he carry Tae’s books. He noticed that Tae was staring, so he flashed a smile, and offered his hand.

“B-Bogum...?” Tae cried, eyes watering again.

The guy furrowed his brows and laughed.

“Y-Yeah thats my name. How did you know me?”—

Tae remembered the very last time he saw Bogum.

He died because of him.

But now, he’s here in front of him. Offering him help again, like how he used to do back then.

He wanted to hug him, so tight and thank him for everything.

But he remembered,

He’s in the future.—

Tae slowly got up, realizing everything. He looked down as he wiped his tears.

“It was written in your shirt.” He excused, and Bogum took a look at his shirt who has his team name, and his own name printed.

“Oh yeah...wait, are you crying?” He asked.—

Bogum panicked. “Did it hurt that much? I’m sorry I really didn’t mean to! Come on lets get you to the clini—“

Tae quickly grabbed his books on his hands and shook his head. He flashed a smile.

“Hey no, its okay. I’m fine, I just had something in my eye.”—

Bogum knew he was lying, but he didn’t want to ask more. He didn’t want him to feel that he’s invading his privacy.

‘They just met.’ He thought.

“Okay, again, I’m really sorry.” He apologized. They bowed at each other, and Tae was about to leave.

“Wait!”—

Tae looked back, confused that’s he’s being called. “Yeah?”

Bogum let out an embarrassed smile as he scratch the back of his head.

“I would miss on everything if I don’t get to know your name.”

Tae smiled, he’s still the same.—

“I-I mean, If you’re not comfortable its okay! I’m just asking cuz you look really fun and nice and gorg—I mean wonderful.”

Tae laughed, he missed him so much. But he knew that he isn’t that Bogum he met.

“Its Taehyung. Kim Taehyung.”
—

Bogum smiled, feeling happy that he atleast gave his name.

“Nice name...see you again?” Bogum said, and Tae nodded.

“Yeah, see you again.”

And with that, Tae turned back, leaving Bogum smiling.

“Hey Bogum! What’s taking you so long?”—

Tae paused at the voice, he turned back to see who.

And he felt so overwhelmed when he saw Namjoon, Seokjin and Hoseok wearing the same uniform as Bogum with their names on it.

He wanted to run and hug them, but he knew they’ll just think he’s weird.—

He turned back, taking his steps away.

“I hope this time, Namjoon and Seokjin hyung would end up together.” He smiled to himself.

He still have 25 minutes before his class starts. So he just went to the cafeteria first to buy some snacks ready.—

“Oreo mc flurry, one please.” Tae told the server, he’s really glad they have this kind of service here.

“One caramel macchiato.” He heard a familiar voice from beside him.

There are lots of students in the cafeteria, and he didn’t know if he’s just seeing things.—

The world literally stopped moving around him, and he can feel his heart beating so loud.

He couldn’t even take off his eyes from that person, and he’ll never want to.

Because that person, was one of the most valuable being to him.

“Jimin...?”—

The aforementioned looked to his direction, feeling confused.

Tae smiled, and couldn’t help but to burst in tears.

Finally, his best friend is right in front of him.

He quickly ran to him and gave him a tight but warm hug. He doesn’t care if he’s crying out loud.—

Almost everyone was looking at them because of Tae’s loud sobs.

He’s crying onto Jimin’s shoulders. He missed him, so so much.

“Minnie I missed you so much!”

Tae cried as he continued to sob on Jimin’s shoulders.—

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry if I didn’t listen to you. I’m sorry if I had hurt you. I’m sorry for doubting our friendship, I’m really really sorry Minnie. I swear! I’ll make it up to you.”

He tightened the hug on Jimin, because only the heaven knows how much he missed him.—

But Tae was so surprised when Jimin gently held his shoulders and slowly pushed him away.

He saw Jimin’s reaction, he was confused.

“I’m sorry but...do I know you? I don’t think I’ve seen you before...”

Tae heard his heart shatter.—

The server had Jimin’s order ready now, and Jimin grabbed it.

“Look Mr...uh whoever you are, I don’t know what you’re sorry for. I don’t even know how you knew my name but I don’t really know you. Sorry, I need to get going.”

And with that Jimin walked away.—

Everyone was now looking at Tae, whispers and whispers around.

“Sir, here’s your oreo mc flurry.” The server said, and Tae grabbed his order with weak self.

Because he couldn’t accept the fact, that his own best friend,

Doesn’t remember him anymore.
