The Painting: One Shot

March 3, 2014

     Seven boys walked through the abandoned forest of Seoul, and although they had been walking for hours they did not intend to stop any time soon. The forest was full of green trees, which when illuminated by the radiant sun seemed to glow. 

     From the small buds came splendid flowers of a variety of unthinkable colors. The air was fresh, the little birds were singing beautiful melodies and the bushes were full of wild berries. The forest seemed to have already recovered from the cold and harsh winter now being the favorite season of Seoul's plants and animals, spring. The boys roamed through this beautiful forest with no destination, they only sought to get away from the judging society and as this was the closest and largest forest, they decided to escape and lose themselves in this forest's beauty.

     They did not expect to find any trace of civilization in this large forest, so they were very surprised to find a house in the middle of this large and thick forest. The house seemed to be abandoned, or at least there was no one living in it, of that they were sure, yet, the house was well maintained except for some parts where the paint slowly falling off the walls when it was scraped off by the vines that hugged the house. The house was immense, it was more of a mansion than a house. To make the house look even more ethereal, it was covered with vines, which bloomed. It was as if the house was inviting them in.

     The boys entered the house cautiously. When Yoongi opened the door, it squeaked a little. The two Seoks let out a small screech and Jungkook tried to hold back a small giggle. The first to enter was Namjoon followed by Yoongi, Hoseok, Seokjin, Jungkook, Taehyung, and lastly Jimin. As they entered, the floor beneath their feet creaked and dust rose from its long nap making them sneeze and cough a little. The furniture, windows, and paintings were covered with a white cloth and a fine layer of dust. The boys began to walk around the house taking different paths. Jin and Hobi opened all the windows for the dust to come out, letting the light also flood in.

     Yoongi walked down the hallways followed by Jimin until he found a door that caught his attention and entered. The room was very large and looked like a dance studio with a large mirror the size of the wall on the side opposite the door. One of the corners was occupied by a piece of furniture covered with a beautiful sky blue silk and a ray of sunshine that illuminated the object, making the scene look as if taken out from a fairy tale.

     Yoongi approached the said piece of furniture, grabbed the cloth that covered it and pulled it, a cloud of dust rose and made him sneeze and cough but when he could see well, he saw a magnificent piano in perfect condition. Without thinking it twice, he sat up and slid his fingers across the keys before playing a tune that flowed from his heart and mind. Seeing the pale boy's actions, Jimin began to sing to the music of the piano, making up lyrics as he went to the soft and exquisite melody.

     Jungkook was wandering through the hallways of the mansion without opening any doors or looking into the rooms. On either side of the wide hallways were tables with fine porcelain vases, these were adorned with different patterns, and colors. Namjoon joined the younger one trying not to touch anything for fear of breaking it, but then an open room caught his attention, it was a library.

     Taehyung entered a huge room full of pictures. He admired the paintings - mostly Victorian - until he stopped in front of a painting that was alone on a wall. In this painting was a family of seven people, but the faces and bodies were slightly blurred as if someone had passed their hand through the paint before it dried. Taehyung turned around to continue looking at the paintings but the attention of his eyes was once again stolen by the previous painting. In the corner of his visual field, he could see how the paint in the painting moved. He just froze. When he noticed that the paint in the painting had stopped moving, he turned back to the painting. And oh! What a wonder, what a great surprise it was when he saw in the painting the bodies and faces of him and his best friends. Taehyung stared at the painting in shock for a moment before running off to show his friends his great finding.

     The seven hearts finally calmed down from their adrenaline of a few hours ago, when they first met their enthusiastic fans, concluding the first fan meeting, between the seven boys and their beloved fans. Although only around 3,000 people attended, they are very happy. They feel the responsibility to get better every day and push their limits to offer their fans the best of themselves.

     "So tired" Yoongi yawned as he left the building where the event took place.

     "We should go to the house in the forest, it's easier to focus on there," Hoseok spoke next.

     "But I'm too lazy to walk!" Yoongi protested, following his friends towards the forest either way.

     "It's worth it, seeing all the beauty of the forest," Taehyung replies to the older's groan.

     "Also, the house is very spacious and beautiful, we always work better there anyway," adds Namjoon to what Taehyung said.

     After a long walk, they finally reached the house in the forest.

     "Wow!" Hoseok exclaims, surprising the others, "It's getting easier and easier to get here!"

     "Now that you mention it," this time Jimin spoke, "You're right."

     Namjoon entered the house followed by the rest and they all went to their favorite places in the house. Jungkook, Jimin, Hoseok, and Yoongi went to the dance room that has the piano that Yoongi loves so much. Namjoon went to the library followed by Jin since the eldest wanted peace, tranquility, and silence, which according to him, he could not obtain with the dance line, which is very true. Taehyung went straight to the art gallery, his favorite part of the whole house.

     Taehyung was in the art gallery, moving a brush across a medium-sized canvas. Suddenly, something within himself told him that he should scout the gallery for inspiration. Taehyung stood up from his chair and started walking, paying attention to the details in each painting.

     Then, he stopped in front of the family portrait where the seven boys appeared smiling. But when looking at the portrait, Taehyung froze. What he saw in the portrait left him very moved, so moved that he quickly ran to the dance room. When the other boys saw Taehyung enter the dance room, out of breath and talking loud, nonsense, like an alien language as he caught his breath, they got worried and quickly approached Taehyung to see what was wrong with him.

     "What happened? Tae, are you alright?" Jungkook asked worriedly, handing him his water bottle filled with ice tea, which Taehyung snatched from the younger's hands and took three big sips before speaking.

     "They won't believe what I saw!" Taehyung exclaimed, still a bit cramped, and ran to the library to shout the same thing, interrupting the interesting conversation, rather arguing on what was easier, whether to sing or rap that Namjoon and Seokjin were having. After interrupting everything, Taehyung ran back to the art gallery, followed by the others. Taehyung stood in front of their family portrait and stared at it, the others reflecting his actions.
     The family portrait had been filled with around three thousand faces and even the frame had grown larger. Most of the faces were girls, but some were boys. All the faces showcased beautiful and genuine smiles and each person had on a shirt, sweater, or cap of different shades of purple, giving from afar the effect of lights that are part of an ocean.
     The seven boys were paralyzed until Hoseok spoke.
     "Look!" Hoseok exclaimed, "They are the girls from the fan meeting!"

     "You're right!" Namjoon replied looking closer.

     "We are a family!" Jimin exclaimed, referring to them and their fans who were present in the portrait.
