Hyung, why do you think taehyung drown himself? We were having the best time of our lives suddenly h-he j-jump and t-then everyone d---" Jimin can't continue what he was about to say. Everything happened so fast. It was absurd, he was traumatized. 

 

His Jin Hyung stared at him for a minute or two. 

 

"Who knows. Maybe because they need to or they wanted to. Just rest. I'll be outside." Jin patted his head and slowly he doze off to sleep. 

 

__________________________

 

"Let's have the best time of our lives together, ara?!" Namjoon hyung said wih his deep loud voice. 

 

"NE." We answered in chorus. The seven of us were indivisible. 

 

"Who wants to party?!?!?!" Namjoon hyung shouted again. 

 

"Whoooooo!!" We shouted back, feeling wild and free.

 

This is what we've wanted to ever since. A life which we can do all the things we want. A world of our own. 

 

"Jiminie, drink some!" Suga hyung throw a canned beer to me. 

 

"Let's go outside! Yahh!" And we all ran as fast as we can. 

 

I can feel the air touching my face. Everything is surreal. 

 

"V! Let's draw somethin' here!" V and namjoon hyung stopped at an abandoned building. 

 

Leaving them, the four of us are still running the best we can. 

 

Jin hyung ran toward a mini truck and seated on the driver's seat. 

 

"Hop in!" and we all jumped to get on the back of the truck. 

 

We own this night until morning! This is life!

 

"AHHHH! WE'LL BE TOGETHER!" Suga hyung shouted. 

 

"FOREVER!" and we answered back. 

 

I can feel my feet aching. Ah. Blisters. And I think everyone has one. 

 

"Oh! Namjoon hyung and V!" Jhope shouted while pointing at hyung and V running to us. 

 

Jin hyung slowed down as they are coming close to us. 

 

They jumped in recklessly. 

 

"The police nearly caught me and hyung." V said while panting hard. 

 

"But we ran faster than their slacky vehicle!" And we all laughed. 

 

"Where are we heading now, hyung?!" Suga asked Jin hyung.

 

"In the Cheonghwan Tunnel!" Hyung answered. 

 

We already reached our destination. 

 

Cars are seen everywhere. Jin hyung parked the mini truck at the middle of the road. It caused every vehicle to stop. 

 

We jumped out and screamed at the top of our lungs. 

 

"AHHHHHH!!" We ran over every car, destroying it. Vandalizing it. 

 

"O-oh! The police is coming again!" I shouted as I saw a pair of white and red lights coming towards us. 

 

Jim hyung started to run the engine and we ran again. 

 

One by one we jumped in. Everyone is breathing heavily.

 

"This is so much fun, hyungs." Jungkook said feeling high-spirited. 

 

"Beach! Beach!" V excitedly said. 

 

The sunrise is about to happen tho the sky is still lightly dark. 

 

"Can we live like this, forever?" I asked namjoon hyung. 

 

"Maybe, yes. Maybe, no." He answered.

 

Jin hyung stopped at the seashore. We played in the sand. 

 

While playing, I saw jin hyung and V having a serious talk. 

 

"Hyung! V! Come, we have no yime for serious business." I said laughing. 

 

They joined us and we ran to the seaside. And sat there. It has a wooden floor and is higher. Enough for us to see the full view of the sea. 

 

The beauty is fascinating. I feel so relieved and so young. 

 

"Bangtan Sonyeondan." Suga hyung suddenly said. 

 

"Bangtan sonyeondan." Jhope hyung repeated. 

 

We looked at each others eyes with burning passion. We all have the same feeling. I know it. 

 

"BANGTAN SONYEONDAN IMNIDA." we shouted. 

 

"WE WOULD MAKE MORE MUSIC." Suga hyung.

"AND GIVE ARMYs MORE LAUGHS AND SMILES." Namjoon hyung. 

 

Everyone is happy. 

 

"Let's go! Let's have a rest and give ARMYs more music." jin hyung said. 

 

While we're walking back to the mini truck. I felt that something is missing-- or rather someone.

 

"Where's V?" I asked while frowning.

 

"Huh?" Everyone looked confused..... except for one.

 

"V!" Namjoon hyung shouted. 

 

We all looked at tge direction he was looking.

 

V! He jumped! 

 

He-- 

 

"V!!!" We ran to him.. 

 

Too late. We're too late. 

 

I don't know what to do anymore. My feet are numb. It was too fast. 

 

What happened..

Jimin slowly woke up when he felt someone is carrying him. 

 

He can't recognize the face because his vision is still blurry. 

 

Not too long, something sharp penetrated his neck. 

 

And everything went black.

 

______________________

 

I hear the birds chirping. I gently opened my eyes. 

 

I groaned. Headache. 

 

There is no one around. 

 

I wondered around the apartment. 

 

One door is left open. I saw hoseok hyung laying there with dextrose on his right hand. 

 

Right, he was the one to save taehyung. 

 

"Hyung!" He looked at me surprised. 

 

"How's V?!" he should be fine. 

 

He looked down and his face sadened.

 

"No, it can't be." I barely managed to to say. 

 

"Why.." why did he do it?!

 

"I don't know." He said in a low voice. 

 

"Namjoon is taking care of everything. Kookie and suga hyung is at the house doing something. And jin hyung...

 

He's nowhere to be found." Hoseok hyung added.

 

"Jin hyung. I saw jin hyung--" jin hyung suddenly entered the room. 

 

"Kookie called. Suga had gone somewhere. They had a.. fight." Hyung said.

 

"It's all gonna be over huh." Hoseok hyung said. 

 

I think so too. 

 

This is too much. I need air. I walked out the room. 

 

"He doesn't know." I heard Hoseok hyung.

 

"I'm not going to tell him."

 

"You need to! Somebody has to tell him that Taehyung had murdered someone and he's too guilty to live anymore that's why he committed suicide!" Hoseok hyung shouted. 

 

I ran outside. 

 

What does hyung exactly meant by that?!

 

Minutes after I saw Jin hyung leave the apartment. 

 

Hyung.... 

 

_______________

 

Jhope can't take it anymore. After jin left him he stared his face at the mirror for a while.

 

'Jin hyung is right. We are all responsible for taehyungs death.' 

 

He took out pills from his medicine cabinet. And took it all.

 

He walkes outside. He is as good as lifeless. 

 

Sun touching his face. His vision slowly became blurry. 

 

He can feel it. 

 

'Mianhae, taehyung. Jin hyung.' 

 

He felt...

 

Death.

 

And he closed his eyes.

"Ahhhh!" Suga shouted out of frustrations.

 

He saw their picture at the floor. 

 

'V' he is mad at himself. 

 

He lit up his lighter and dropped it in the floor.

 

'Mianhaeyo, taehyung. Jin hyung.'

Kookie is at the abandoned building where V and Namjoon drew something and nearly got caught by the police. 

 

He was reminiscing. 

 

"Ya! Who are you? This is our teritory!" Someone shouted.

 

It was dark so it was hard for him to recognize where the stranger is. 

 

"Ya! Ya playing strong huh!" Then someone puched him at the face. He can't fight back.

 

He's too tired and vulnerable to fight. 

 

He was beaten up close to death. The stranger left him there, barely breathing.

 

'Taehyung hyung.' 

 

He left the abandoned building. 

 

Light flashed fast his face. He didn't see a thing. He felt his body fell to the ground.

 

'Mian, V hyung. Jin hyung.'

Namjoon is the gas station they have been last night. 

 

Last night. Things happened so fast. 

 

He lit up his cigarette and closed his eyes.

 

'Mianhae, Taehyung. Jin hyung. Mianhae, Bangtan.'

Jimin woke up for the nth time. He's in a bath tub. 

 

The water is running and cannot be stopped.

 

Memories came rushing through his mind. 

 

It all had come to an end. 

 

He saw a polaroid on the floor. The picture was taken by his Jin hyung at the seaside. Before taehyung died. 

 

Jimin took a deep breath. 

 

'I knew it, Jin hyung. You were the first to die before all of us. Kamsahamnida, Jin hyung. You're always there to guide us. And now it's time for us to reunite again. In another life. Mian, V. If we were there to comfort you then none of this would happen. Saranghae, Bangtan.' 

 

I burned the polaroid. And stayed in the bath tub until my last breath.

 

'Jin hyung. Our butterfly.'
