After walking a lot, over the streets, asking random people, only failure what Jeongguk got. A void what is surrounding over him now, over that there is the hot sun, which is not helping his condition at all. He is tired, he is hungry, he is thirsty, most importantly he is scared as hell.

"I swear Chiku... If I don't find you anytime now... I swear ... I WILL TORE MY ADMISSION RECEIPT...I DON'T NEED IT... I CAN'T BE HAPPIER WITH IT WITHOUT-

"Are you lost boy?"

Quite a soothing voice interrupted his trembling shout,and his trembling heart.

A woman with her perhaps nineties standing there not so far away from him with the help of a 'walking stick'. The old woman was really giving the boy a very soothing vibe.

"Ye-s halm-eoni, I lost my partner he-re."
Jeongguk stated while messily wiping his tears. Looking like a 2 years old boy who just lost his parents in the crowd. Chukle*

"Hmm...How old was he?"

"Al-most my age, Halmeoni"
Again Jeongguk states without wasting a moment. His wet eyes were on showing curiosity and a trust that this woman has something. Something which is angelic. It can be just his imagination but still the woman has something which he can't elaborate. His curious eyes were searching for only one thing that she will tell him that yes, I saw your partner there and he is waiting for you. He was so lost with his inner thoughts that, he failed to utilize her sudden recognition of his partner's gender.

"Easy, boy easy why you tensing up Hmm? He is a big boy, not any small puppy, maybe somewhere playing or sitting!!"

"Halmeoni, we are new in this place he don't know anything here, that's why I am scared."

"Then what? What if he don't know anything!!!! You too also new right? You are roaming perfectly I guess ahahhaha...lets go we have a lot to talk.. you seems like a good boy...hmm..."

With a defeated nod Jeongguk followed the woman's steps, He had no option except from following. Who knows if she is giving him the direction to his Chiku.

Why you silent Hmm?? Tell me something...your family your everything..."

"My fat-her is a far-mer, and I ran away to fro-m my home."
Jeongguk replied Whispering. Although his attention was not with the lady still he thought to share something instant.

"To pursue your study??"
She asked making the other shocked as hell....

"Y-es..ho-w?"

"Aahh don't mind me, I just guessed seeing your admission receipt."

The woman replied with small smile.

"Oh..oh yeah..hmm.."

.
.
.

"The lost person is your?"
The woman asked breaking their silence.

"My Future husband."
Jeongguk replied within a breath as if this is the most luxurious news to spread for him.

"Aaahhh that's so gay Ahahahaha..."
.
.
.
.

And again the awkward silence filled the air.

"Did you know in English literature gay means happiness, bliss. And I think you have already made a place of this with your partner."

Whatever the woman said were obviously didn't get into his brain, except for the happiness part.

"Hmm sorry?"

" aaaaah crap it...I wanted to easy your tense state, which actually not gonna work o guess....
.
.
Don't mind me son, I am kind of a jocose woman, you got it right? I meant funny woman... ahahha... that's why I guess I am living for long. Because tensed brain and tensed heart both are equally unhealthy. Look at me!! I am super healthy woman until now. Who knows what happens Tomorrow or a second later, we got time to celebrate not to meditate son. Don't spoil your beautiful days..together"

A bewildered Jeongguk subconsciously nod his head, as if his all spirit Is appreciating the woman's talks.

.
.

.
.

"Haish now tell me about your future husband... like how will I recognize him ha...idiot...?"

"O-h yeah..
Halmeoni, he was wearing a baggy Tshirt reaching over his thigh, slightly ripped from his shoulder, the shirt was not so pure white as it is getting old, and a baggy pant,where you can only find embroidery as he loves making flowers only to hide its holes."

Jeongguk sobbed while getting his old memories flashing over his eyes.

Flashback:

When Taehyung was a very little boy, he once come to Jeongguk's house,almost 9 in the night, crying loudly while holding his ripped up pant, only wearing a baggy tshirt in his upper body which was quite enough to hide his private parts. Jeongguk was busy studying as his exam was going on. And his dad shouted at Taehyung, as to why he is there to disturb his son. And it scared the crying boy even more. He cried, cried and cried. The man drag him out of their house and shut the door. Jeongguk was always so scared of his appa as he beats him messily, he couldn't protest for his chiku he was helpless. He couldn't do anything... he didn't sleep that night just randomly look over the night sky through his window. The next day was his exam day he was 5 years old boy. But with the name of school he choose to bunk his exam and went to check on his chiku having eye bags. Well not to mention that his dad gave him a great beating after he got a notice from school about his absence.

When he reached over the fisherman's house, The first thing he asks for Taehyung.

"Evil spirit is roaming over him, and you are searching him here, nooo... that useless perhaps roaming over somewhere in the jungle, yesterday night we found him sleeping on the street with dust... naked..., like seriously, nearby people thought to give him to a village quack to get him a huge beating only to make him stable inside of the house but ...his... beautiful face hold me back...huh...otherwise people so gonna get over his ghost spirit by beating the shit out of him...headache....headache...headache what he is giving me and nothing..aaaahhhh.."

It was what Taehyung's mother said to the boy after leaving him outside in a daze. Jeongguk never knew Taehyung's parents were so cruel but he was okay with it unless they don't abuse him physically or mentally as to obviously maintain his beauty...eye roll.

He without wasting a moment ran towards the place where his chiku can be, most probably river side.
.
.
.
.

Ah yes he was indeed right his cute Chiku is playing with the cows near by the river, while giggling. But half naked?.... only a dirty shirt was in his upper body. The other boys were mocking at his state. Throwing dust over his body making him more dirty...But his bubbly chiku thought that this is any kind of a play thing so he voluntarily accepting the all dusts and mocking laughs too, while giggling.

Looking at His Chiku's state from a far Jeongguk too took off his pant on that spot and put it under his bag, as his pant not gonna fit for the little boy he was too little from Jeongguk's size. Why he should embarrass his chiku alone they are together in it.

"Chikuuuuuuuu...look our matching outfit we promised to wear look look.."

With that Jeongguk ran towards the other... making a glaring face to the bullies. The little bullies too got scared and ran away immediately to hide somewhere.

"Tootie Hyungieeeeeeee..."

The little boy immediately ran towards Jeongguk when he noticed him and straddled over his body.

"Hyungie... Hyungie...Hyungieeeeee"

Taehyung sing songed while showing his innocent puppy eyes and boxy smile.

"Aaaigyoooo my chikuuuu..."

Jeongguk cooed the boy while kissing all over his face, that was not love just...umm..um...I think adoration. They were indeed adorable.

"Hyungie pawnt?"

Taehyung asked innocently while showing the others naked legs.

"I- i- its uniform of us chiku..matching matching.."

Jeongguk said, glaring at the other laughing boys behind a tree, getting a giggle in reply from his chiku. And then both of them bursted out giggling.

"Chiku your chubby ass is showing...pwinggg...pwinggg..."

Jeongguk said making incoherent words and poked his ass.

"Hyungieeeee.... "

The little boy whined while covering his ass cheeks with his little hands.

"Why did you go to my house yesterday night without wearing any pant chiku? With your ripped pant hmm??? You even slept on road.. do you know how much its dangerous Hmm??? Don't do it ever again, never. It's my order."

Jeongguk said worryingly while caressing the others soft and dusty hair.

Then suddenly reality hit Taehyung and he immediately bursted out crying.

"Dead,.hic*.gowne..(gone)."
Taehyung said while crying.

"Who is dead Chiku?"

Jeongguk asked while comforting the other.

"M-y pa-wnt(pant) ...dead...hic*"

Well Taehyung was first got to see his old pant ripped off so he thought as it dead like a living being. His lack of education was made him thought like this.

"Chukle* no silly , it's not dead...its just ripping off.. you came to me to sew it right chiku?"

Taehyung just nodded with a pout. His eyes and nose were flooded.

With a Chukle the five year old boy took the sobbing boy into his arm. His hands were holding the others ass tenderly as to not show the others. Taehyung was not wearing any underwear too. Soooooo you guess the rests.

"Now now stop crying... I am here as so I will make everything done...you know right I know magic.... i will make your pant again beautiful...let's go to your house to get it Chiku...."

"Paw-nt Hyungie.."
Taehyung said wiping his nose.

"Yes pant, now let's go..."

"Aniii, Hyu-ngie pawnt he-re.."

Taehyung said while pointing at the ground.

"Pant here !! did you bring your pant here?"

"Yeth, here.. "
Taehyung said nodding.

"Here where?"

"Here, thun(sun), dity(dirty), wath (wash)"

Taehyung was unable to form any complete sentence so he instead use words to converse. And it was enough for the certain 5 years to understand.

"You took your pant here to wash? And dry off?"

Taehyung nod immediately.

"Aigyooooo... my chiku can wash too Hmm!!!"

Jeongguk said nudging his nose deeper to others chest making him giggle.

"Where is it? I can't see any pant here chiku... "

Jeongguk said roaming his eyes all over the field.

"Thee..tow(cow)"

Taehyung said pointing at the cow who happily chewing his grass. And there is the pant Taehyung spread over his shoulder to dry it off . Aaah this brat.

.
.
.

And Jeongguk sew the pant with the needle thread he had inside of his bag but Instead of making it simple he made a flower pattern in every ripped part. His mother used to do it when he was so little, his catchy brain caught the idea immediately. Our Tae tae also took time to acquire it fully but he indeed get the whole course. Now our Taetae don't run away with ripped pant anywhere, he learnt to make flower ambrodari in it.

"Hyungie beth...Hyungie... pawnt fower(flower).."
A giggling Taehyung always chants when he wear his reborn pant. Showing others...

"Hyungie fower.."
With that he wanted to say that look here these flowers are made by Hyungie...

"Hyungie Fowerrr...

Hyungieeeee....

..gieeeee..

...gieeee....

"HYUNGIEEEEEEE...."

A high pierced shout startled the dozed of boy, Trying to reach his reality he shook his brain a bit. He can't believe his Chiku is standing in front of him with a worried face.

"Ch-ikuu???"

"Hyungie ..."
Taehyung hugged the trembling boy tightly.

"I t-hought I lost y-ou...Chiku...don't dare to do it ag-ain... I w-ill die... die for su-re.."

"Hyungie I was about to wait outside the gate but,I saw a kookie shop I thought to bought one as I was hungry... then I saw a round round something, flying over the sky, the color was white...HYUNGIE WHITE...MY FAVORITE...so I thought to grab it.. but i lost the way and had been sitting on this park. I lost you. Sowwyyy, but I knew it you will find me. "

Taehyung elaborate the situation happened a few minutes back when he chased a white balloon. And ended up entering a children's park.

"Ch-iku you ca-n't just roam here like this... what if something happened to you hah? Don't you under-stand how scared I am to loose you!! Thanks to Halmeoni she thought to give me a tour she is so positive Chiku..
.
.
.
Thank y-

Jeongguk's smile immediately vanished not finding the old woman beside him.

"Hyungie where is Halmeoni? I want to thank too."

Taehyung asked in curiousity.

"Where is she exactly??? She was with me here!!"
Jeongguk asked confusingly

"Hyungie you came here alone. No one was I saw... maybe she leave early and we didn't catch? It can be happen right Hyungie?"

Taehyung asked while nudging his face into the others neck, out of tiredness. He even forget to ask the news about his Hyungies admission. Aaah...so Jeongguk just accepted the mystery not to tense the boy more.

But still his heart is not accepting the reality of the old woman's sudden disappearance. Who was she? Was she any angel to show his path to his happiness, his chiku or this is just any kind of random coincidence only?
