Polaroid

Monday. 5:02 am. Jimin went over to Taehyung's house since it is still early to go to school.

"Tae?"

"Chim..." Tae gave him a pitiful face as he opened the main door.

"What's the matter?"

"I think Yoongi hyung didn't like what we did to his room."

"Eh? Why?"

They climbed upstairs and went infront of Yoongi's room. "Look." Tae pointed his finger on the rag placed infront of the door, and gave a pout. "He doesn't want us to go near his room anymore, Chim."

Jimin looked closely what is written on the rag, and it's a cartoon character that says, 'Go Away'. Jimin was wondering why his Yoongi hyung decided to place a rag like that infront of the door so out of curiousity, he knocked on the door.

"Chim!" Tae shouted in a whisper. "He might get angry! Go away there! Don't get near!"

"Why would I—oh, Yoongi hyung, annyeong." He waved at Yoongi. "Good mornin—"

"Come inside." Jimin raised his eyebrows but followed his hyung anyway.

"Yoongi hyung?" Tae called behind them.

"Hm?"

"I thought you're—" He was about to ask about the rag. "Eheheheh nevermind. I'm going downstairs now."

Jimin was the one who closed the door while his hyung went the way back to the bed. The elder wrapped himself with the thick blanket while sitting on his butt and hugging his legs. The position Yoongi is making looks cute in the eyes of Jimin. He chuckled and the elder heard it.

"Hm?" Yoongi ask with a sleepy tone.

"Nothing. Ah now I know..."

Yoongi opened his eyes and saw Jimin sitting on the edge of his bed. "What do you know?"

"The rag infront of your door." He pointed the door. "Hmm... But you don't seem like it."

Yoongi was confused. "I don't understand."

The younger chuckled. "Did you sleep well?"

"No. I'm still sleepy." The elder said while closing his eyes.

"What time did you came home last night?"

"Almost 12."

Jimin went closer to him and partly hugged him, with his head on the elder's knees. Yoongi sleepily opened his eyes and saw their faces are so close with each other.

"Do you want to sleep more?" Jimin asked.

"Badly." The elder said in a whispering tone. He covered his own mouth and put his face sideway. He's loving the younger's breath he just smelled right now but became embarrased with his, since he just woke up. "Don't get too close."

The younger chuckled and hugged him tightly. "I don't mind if you haven't brushed." The younger's answer made Yoongi whine.

"Let's go back to sleep." Yoongi said while hugging Jimin back.

The younger shook his head and gave him a smile. "Today is Monday, hyung. We should not be late for school."

Yoongi sighed and took off their hugs, and stood up. "Fine. Wait me here. I'll take a bath." Jimin nodded and sat on the edge of the bed, being behave.

Yoongi took almost thirty minutes when he finished taking a bath, and when he got out of the bathroom, he saw Jimin lying on the bed, eyes closed, and sleeping safe and sound. He chuckled and went his way through the closet to get clothes.

"Submit your business plan tomorrow. Next week is the Entrepreneur's Week, so as early as tomorrow, after I check your plans, prepare your materials needed for your booth and your proposed products. Dismissed." The professor said and walked his way out of the room.

The students were busy talking about what to do for the Entrepreneur's Week while Yoongi, who sits beside the window, was busy listening to rap songs and writing something on the last page of his notebook.

'Why do people sell?'

'Does everyone who sells tells the truth or not?'

'If you give something to them, do you always take something from them too, all the time?'

'Does always a robber a bad person? Or something else?'

"Where would you like to build your business, in the near future?" He heard Jiko, a classmate who loves carrying a polaroid camera, who is behind him, talking.

"Hmm I have an idea to build it in an attractive place..." Another classmate answered.

While wondering about selling, an idea randomly came in his mind that made him wonder more. And made him almost buried in a deep thought.

"One two three four five six seven eight..."

"Yeahhh that's great!" Hoseok tapped Jimin's shoulder. "Water break guys!"

Jimin and the other members nodded and grabbed water bottles to drink.

"Here, few more weeks to go before the festival of talents. And as of now, I'm confident that we can do it very well. Still, let's work harder. Fighting!"

"Fighting!" The members shouted and took a rest. Some are lying and some are sitting on the floor while Jimin, standing and staring on his reflection on the mirror, having a deep thought. And even after practicing and walking across the hallway, his thoughts are flying. He came back from consciousness when he saw someone's feet blocking his way. When he raised his head up, he saw him.

Yoongi hyung.

"Mind to share what you're thinking?" The elder with the backpack hanging on his right shoulder, asking.

"Uhm..." Jimin became speechless.

He is starting to doubt his talent.

"Am I a good dancer?" He asked Yoongi.

"Are you a good dancer?" The elder asked back.

"I don't know."

"I don't know either. I've never seen you dance."

He was about to do it, to dance infront of him to know if he is really a good dancer, when Yoongi went closer to him and held his hand, "Let's go somewhere."

He raised his eyebrows, "Where?"

"Somewhere... Attractive."

The Seoul is quite big, and there are a lot of attractive places to go to, so where is that somewhere attractive that Yoongi referred?

"Drive us in this place." Yoongi negotiated with the taxi driver by giving a piece of paper without telling what place they are going to. Jimin decided not to ask and kept silent until they rode a cab and arrived to the place. It was five past ten in the afternoon and the sun is setting.

As soon as Jimin stepped foot on the ground, his eyes came to a sparkled when he saw the sorrounding. It really is attractive. "Banpo Bridge?"

They are on the end of the bridge, and the fountain is flowing on the side of the structure with rainbow colored lights, making it very attractive in the night.

"Yeah." They held hands while walking in the sidewalk, aiming to stop in the middle part of the bridge. "First time to go here?"

"Hm... A lot of times to pass by here, but it's my first time to stop by."

"Me, too."

After seconds of silence, Jimin's curiosity came back and asked, "What made you think to go here, hyung?"

They haven't arrived in the middle of the bridge, even one fourth, when they stopped walking. Yoongi leaned on the railings and Jimin followed.

"Our entrepreneurship class said business is better made in an attractive place."

"And you want your business to grow here?"

"Hm." Yoongi hummed, aggreeing. "I'll crowd this bridge with stalls." He said while pointing the sidewalks.

Jimin chuckled. "That will not work, hyung. That is prohibited." Jimin turned around, facing the river and the orange colored sky. "There are many attractive places to grow your business, hyung."

"But I like this place..."

"You can look for somewhere else, hyung, that is appropriate for your business."

Yoongi sighed. "Then what place should I put on my output?"

"Output?"

Yoongi sighed again, "My business plan. The feasibility study. I need a place for my business."

"What kind of business you're going to make, hyung?"

Yoongi thought for seconds, "Uh... Street foods?"

"But hyung, Banpo bridge isn't feasible for street food stalls, or night cafe. We could go downtown if you want that kind of business."

"Nevermind," Yoongi turned around and they are both facing the river and the rainbow fountain. "But I like this place. I've been wanting to go here since before."

"It's okay hyung. If it's not for the business, you could just consider this place a memorable one, in another way."

Yoongi looked him in the eye and they stared each other for a minute. "Did you like this place?"

"Of course, hyung. I do like it."

Yoongi smiled and opened his backpack.

"Polaroid? Do you have polaroid cam?"

"Nope." Yoongi shook his head slightly. "I borrowed it from my classmate." He opened the lid of the lens and adjusted the settings. "I know today will be memorable so I'm thinking in advance. Smile."

Jimin prepared himself to smile beside Yoongi. A sound of a click and a rectangular paper swallowed out of the polaroid camera. Jimin pulled it and Yoongi took another shot with the same pose. Now there are two polaroids in Jimin's hands.

"Let's keep it together."

The phrase Yoongi said made Jimin's heart flutter until they ate together and went home. Yoongi delivered him to his apartment first.

"Text me when you get home. Send my regards to Tae." He said and waved goobye. Yoongi nodded and went back in the cab, bringing a plastic bag of meal they bought for Tae.

After taking a shower, he pulled out the polaroid from his wallet and smiled while lying on the bed. The two pictures are having a same pose, him in a peace sign behind Yoongi, who is smiling sweetly.

"I'll keep this forever."
