「 YOONGI – october 16th, 2:24pm • DAY THREE 」

HE'S BUSY GOING THROUGH PAPERWORK ON HIS DESK WHEN HE'S APPROACHED BY A COUPLE OF KIDS.

Or at least he thought they were kids, until he gets a good look at them and realizes they're around his age, actually.

There's four of them. They stand by him and one of them speaks– he looks scared and Yoongi feels bad for him, sipping on his coffee as he listens.

"Can you help us?" He asks, his voice shaking. "My name is Kim Taehyung. I'm here to... to report our friend missing."

"Missing?" Yoongi repeats as two of the boys sit down, one of them being Taehyung. "Are you sure he's missing?" He doesn't have time for this, but he sighs, listening.

"Yeah," Taehyung replies, "He disappeared after his birthday party on the 13th. He hasn't answered the phone or replied to any texts, his boss said he never showed up for work and the neighbors never saw him come home that night."

"And he's not just avoiding you or something?" Yoongi asks dully, uninterested.

"No," Taehyung snaps, slightly irritated. "He wouldn't do that. He's really nice."

"Is that so?"

Taehyung nods. "We're worried because... in the past, he's tried to kill himself and we're scared he wants to do it again or something."

Whoa. Yoongi wasn't expecting something that serious.

He leans forward a little, giving them his full attention now. Suicide is a rough topic– his mother killed herself when he was younger and it really fucked him up.

"What's his name?" Yoongi asks, biting his lip. "Tell me about him."

"His name is Park Jimin," Taehyung says softly. "He's 23, has blond hair. His brother went missing two years ago too and was presumed dead which made Jimin very unstable and suicidal. His brother was all he had left."

With a grim expression, Yoongi purses his lips and nods. "Alright. I'll look into it."

Taehyung goes on to give him their names and numbers, and they all get ready to leave.

Taehyung turns to Yoongi before he does. "Please find him."

And Yoongi nods again. "I'll try my hardest."
