"Is everyone is ready?" Jin called out, trying to gather the scattered members. Mumbled affirmations were followed by the members filtering into the room.
With everyone present, the members bowed in gratitude, thanking all the staff who had helped them in the shooting of the commercial.
The shooting had taken much longer than scheduled, ending only a few minutes before midnight. The boys hurried out to their cars, knowing their presence would only delay the work of the staff who was staying back to pack up the shoot.
Yoongi silently observed Jimin as placed his bag next to him on the back seat and pulled his hoodie low over his face- a clear indication that he wanted to be left alone.
Jimin was unaware of the worry he had caused to the others. He didn't see the silent glances and the silent nods exchanged between the others. They knew that something was troubling him but they also knew that he would come to them when he was ready and their silent support was all that he required at the moment.
Namjoon gently nudged Jimin awake when they reached home. He lovingly ruffled his hair as Jimin blinked to full awareness. "We're home."
"Are you searching for your phone?" Namjoon asked as he watched Jimin pat his pockets and check under the seat.
"Give me a call... Hopefully, it's not on silent," Jimin mumbled as he searched through his bag once more.
They both waited for the phone to ring but there was nothing.
"Hello..?"
Namjoon's hand stopped just as he was going to end the call. They both looked at each other, eyes wide open.
"Hello..?"
The voiced called out again, bringing them out of confused state.
"H-hello! Who's this?" Namjoon asked, wary of the female voice on the other end.
"Namjoon, it's Sora."
Both of them let out a sigh of relief at hearing her name. Jimin immediately took the phone from Namjoon and took it off speakerphone.
"Sora, it's Jimin. How do you have my phone? Did I give it to you and forget about it?"
"No, no. You actually left it on charge here. I was just leaving when I heard it ring and recognized your ringtone."
"You are still at the site?" Jimin asked as he checked the watch on his wrist. It was almost two!
"We just finished packing everything. I can drop off your phone but I don't know where you live..."
"I'm coming. Don't move and stay inside the building until I come."
"But Jimi-"
Jimin cut the call before Sora could finish and rushed to his manager asking him to let him borrow the car- lips pouted and puppy eyes out for full impact.
"Jimin! Here take this with you," Yoongi said, handing over his phone. Jimin smiled at him and silently thanked Namjoon and Yoongi for not questioning or stopping him.
Jimin reversed out the driveway and accelerated out of their gated community. The manager winced at the screech of the tires as he drove off. Namjoon patted the manager, trying to reassure him of Jimin's safety and also of his car.
Although only a couple of minutes away from reaching the site, Jimin started to feel anxious as he watched the minutes tick away on the clock of the car. He called his phone and nervously tapped his fingers on the steering wheel as each ring went unanswered.
"He-"
"Sora!" He swore in relief. "What took you so long?!"
"Jimin? It showed Yoongi's name, so I wasn't sure if I should pick it."
"Listen, I am almost there, just be on the call till I reach you."
"Is something wrong? You sound really anxious.."
"No..nothing is wrong..."
"Are you sure?"
"Jimin..?"
"Jimin?"
"Hello... Are you still there?"
"Jimin!"
