"Please ... please tell me you're joking Miss Hwang. You're joking, right?" Jeongyeon said with her voice almost cracking

Miss Hwang just gave her a sad face.

Taehyung saw her face...her expression...
he pity his best friend. He felt guilty and doesn't ever want to see her that way again. He saw the deep concern and worry on her face. That's when he really realized - that Jeongyeon really loves Jimin. And he accepted it wholeheartedly from that moment on. His bestfriend's emotional state is more important to him than his own feelings.

"Jeong...its alright I'm here."
he stood up too and comforted her and rubbed her back.

"Jungkook? What do we do?"
she frantically asked

"We're doing the best that we can right now.
My dad is on his way here. We're contacting the mayor and the hackers that we know that knows how to trace his last know location." Jungkook explained

"Had this ever happened before?"
Jeongyeon curiously asked

"Unfortunately, no. This is the first time."
he answered

Jeongyeon got weak and placed her hands on her face - showing a bit of distress.

"Jeong...don't worry"
Jungkook said

"I'm allowed to worry ok? And that's all I could feel and do right now." she answered

Taehyung just continued to hold the back of her shoulders to comfort her.

"Ok ok I'm sorry...I know you do. Let's just wait until this news will reach the mayor and eventually we will get some help."

"Ok... but... How about....how about we go around the island and ask if people saw him? While waiting for help...because I can't seem to calm down." she suggested looking worried and biting her thumb

"Ok ok yes we can do that...Miss Hwang if my dad arrives call me right away"

"Yes I will"

"Ok half of you stay here. Half of you go with us" Jungkook instructed their assistants/bodyguards

They started asking guests in the resort and vendors from the shore... they all have the same answers: they saw him in the morning walking towards the other side of the mountain peak behind the the island.

When Jungkook heard this...

"Ah damn it it's those guys again.
But why did he go there?" Jungkook said and asked his self

"What guys?"
Jeongyeon asked

"It's a long story"

"We saw three guys upon going home the last time when he was teaching me how to ride a bike from an empty road. They were teasing and interrogating him that time...and just told me to just walk...he even apologized to me for bringing me there."
