An hour before their arrival….

When she heard the doorbell, she was engrossed in a kdrama on his television. She stared at the man in front of her when she opened the door.

He chuckled and said, "I figured you'd be shocked to find me here." 

"Grim Reaper, I'm looking for an explanation. This time, I expected you to bring a frying pan!” He looked at her in surprise as she chuckled.

"We can talk about anything once inside. First, let me in?” whispered the Grim Reaper. 

"That's impossible. Obviously, it isn't my home." 

"Then, follow me," the Grim Reaper ordered.

She trailed behind him after closing the door. He opened the door opposite Yoongi's apartment, "Get in. This room was vacant when I arrived, so I purchased it.” He guffawed a little, “In a nutshell, I'm going to be your new next-door neighbor!”

"So... How long do I have to stay like this?" she inquired as she sat on the couch with him.

He said, "Fifty days."

"And why is it that specific?" She inquired, her gaze drawn to him.

"Didn't you tell me you want to be loved?"

"And then you changed me into a cat?" 

He smirked as he brought some chips over and said, "Everyone likes cats, including me."

"Then why do I constantly change from a cat to a human, with no control?"

He giggled nervously as he met her death glares, "It... It's... I tried it for the first time."

"Will I be able to manage it or something?" He shook his head emphatically, expressing a resounding NO.

She grumbled, "I'm doomed, right?"

"You should be aware that you are a special client of mine, and I will keep an eye on you."

She scoffed, "Special?"

"Sorry, I was just as inquisitive as to the Goblin and wanted to do what he did. And I made a few mistakes."

“Who?” she stared at him hopefully.

Grim Reaper groaned, "One of my acquaintances. You, on the other hand, desired a proper send-off. What difference does it make to you?” He shook his head.

He reverted to a cat before she could express her dissatisfaction. 

“That's it for now,” He said, patting her head gently, "Let's just watch something," and turned on the television.

****

"I suppose they've arrived," as soon as she heard booming footsteps, she jerked away. Grim Reaper took it as a hint and disguised himself as a kid to approach them.

Yoongi and Jimin were having a conversation while she watched them from under the table, not far away from them.

"Yoongi Hyung, I wanted to ask you something..." Jimin started his Hyung as Yoongi shifted his gaze from her to him, "Is she all right?"

Yoongi was perplexed, "Who Jimin?"

"I overheard you rescinding the missing report. So... I know she's alive, but do you have any idea where she is?"

"I can't offer you an answer," the elder one said, staring blankly at the cat and then at him.

"Please let me meet her for once, Yoongi Hyung. I have to apologize to her..." He said while the elder one stared at him.

"Apologize for what, Jimin?"

"There are things that I didn't tell you about..."

As she established eye contact with Yoongi, she wondered, ‘Why would Mr. Park be looking for me?’

“Hyung... I wanted to protect her... She was involved in numerous scenarios involving staff members...and I did nothing...I ignored her... It's something I should have told you about... However, I was terrified….” He tried to find excuses for himself, “Please let me know if you find her, Hyung.” Yoongi didn't say anything, just nodded.

She began walking towards his room, but she came to a halt halfway there when she overheard something she shouldn't have.

"Hey, Hyung, where's your girlfriend? I had hoped to see her today!" Jimin grinned while his Hyung stared at him with wide eyes.

'If he has a girlfriend, this is going to be awkward. My presence will be burdensome to him,' She thought as she returned to his room slowly.

While the other guy whined, he replied, "You will meet her someday."

"Just show me one of her photos, I'm sure you have them on your phone!"

"I'm sorry, but I don't," he tries his hardest to put an end to this topic.

"That's okay. I'll return when I have more free time. In an hour, I'll be having a family dinner. Thank you for your time, Yoongi Hyung. I’ll see you later!" Saying this, Jimin left the apartment.

Yoongi stood there for a while before picking up the paper bags to his room, a soft sigh escaping his lips.

What should he do now?
