Still With You ?

35

"J-Jin-ssi?! Hello, um, I-I'm Park Chaeyoung! Jungkook's classmate! H-How are you?!" Chaeyoung asked.

Jin looked at yoongi with confused eyes. Yoongi chuckled and gestured him to speak. "I am fine... What about you?" Jin asked.

"I... I am fine..." Jin hummed and heard someone whispering. "Umm... Why is jungkook on leave?" she asked.

Jin glanced at Yoongi before replying, "He has a fever, that's why."

"Oh... Okay. Is he feeling better now?" Chaeyoung asked.

"Nae, he's a little better," Jin replied.

"Alright... T-Thank you for telling me, Jin-ssi, umm btw I am your biggest fan" Chaeyoung said cheering.

Jin chuckled "Nae... Take care. Bye my dear fan," Jin said before ending the call.

Jin sighed, placing his phone aside. "I hope he'll be okay," he muttered.

"He must be fine. If he isn't, then Kim is done for," Yoongi said, his voice laced with protectiveness.

Jin smiled knowingly. He understood why Yoongi was so protective.

"Thanks, Yoongs," Jin said with a soft smile.

"For what?" Yoongi asked, confused.

"I'm grateful to have you all as my brothers," Jin admitted.

Yoongi didn't respond immediately, but when he did, his voice was firm. "We are grateful too."

Jin chuckled. "B...but I'm more grateful. Without you guys, I wouldn't have recovered from that."

"Hyunggg... Don't say things like that, please. We're here for you, and you're here for us. That's all that matters," Yoongi said sincerely.

Jin nodded with a warm smile.

They continued their drive, and soon.

Meanwhile, with Eunwoo and Chaeyoung

The two friends sat in their usual spot at the cafeteria, bickering as usual.

"Yahhh! If you want to call him, you do it! Why drag me into this?" Chaeyoung huffed, crossing her arms.

"Please, please, pleaaase! You're my sweet, kind, beautiful best friend, right?" Eunwoo said, dramatically clasping his hands together and flashing his best puppy eyes.

Chaeyoung raised a brow. "Flattery won't get you anywhere, Eunwoo."

Eunwoo pouted. "But you love calling people, and you totally have a softer voice than me! If I call, he might think I'm trying to sell him insurance or something!"

Here eunwoo was literally begging chaeyoung to call jungkook to ask why he was on leave. He was worried.

Chaeyoung rolled her eyes. "Fine! But I want cake in return."

"Deal! My dear boss, now please, dial!" Eunwoo said enthusiastically, practically shoving her phone into her hands.

Chaeyoung groaned but went ahead and called Jungkook. The call rang and rang... but he didn't pick up.

"See? He's not answering. I told you," she said, tossing the phone back on the table.

Eunwoo frowned. His excitement turned into deep worry. He tapped his chin, thinking hard, and suddenly, an idea struck him. "Wait! I have an idea."

He grabbed his own phone, did something quickly, and then handed her another number. "Here, call this one."

Chaeyoung squinted at the screen. "Who is this?"
