Advent calendar | Yoonmin [English]

Jimin turned the small roll with the 4 on it thoughtfully between his fingers. There had been a small porcelain jug in today's bag. Or was it a cup? Or a vase? Perhaps a small vase.

And there had also been this rolled-up piece of paper in the parcel, held together with a ribbon and a sticker with a 4 on it.

Jimin put the presumed vase to one side and fumbled the sticker off the roll of paper to make it easier to peel off the tape. Then he rolled up the paper.

It was just a plain piece of Post-It with a few coordinates and a time written on it.

Jimin typed the coordinates into his mobile phone, frowning.

The place wasn't too far away, but it was in the middle of nowhere.

And 5.30 pm was also pretty daring, as both he and Yoongi had to work today...

He opened the chat.

Jimin:
Are you planning to kidnap me?

seen 9:30AM

So... Yoongi didn't answer him. Well, it was Monday and he probably had to work.

Jimin tapped his fingers on the tabletop. When there was still no answer after 5 more minutes, he got up and decided to do something productive as well.

~

12:13 pm. Yoongi was supposed to be on his lunch break. Jimin checked the messenger app to see if maybe it just hadn't shown him that Yoongi had replied to him. Nothing.

He started typing.

Jimin:

Sighing in frustration, he put his mobile phone away without having sent any of the messages. 

He didn't usually find it so difficult to write anything.

He checked the coordinates on the map for the umpteenth time today. What was there?

Had they met there before? Had they had some kind of shoot or something?

In fact, there was nothing at all near the spot. A few houses, a few fields... Maybe a hiking trail? 

But what was it about the vase or whatever it was?

~

4 pm. Jimin actually still had a little time before he had to leave. But he couldn't concentrate at all. Breathing heavily, he lay on his back on the floor of the dance hall. Nothing had worked today. His thoughts had constantly drifted to Yoongi. He still hadn't answered.

Jimin pulled his mobile phone out of his pocket and looked at the chat. He sighed.

~

Jimin:
I'm on my way now.

~

He pocketed his mobile phone and stood up. He should probably take another shower.

~

5.30 p.m. Jimin looked at his mobile phone again. He had been standing here in the dark for 20 minutes. As expected, there was nothing worth mentioning far and wide. Several fields stretched out to one side. On the other were a few bare, snow-covered trees and bushes that separated the small housing estate from the fields.
