Losing his parents to a car accident, the 7th grader Jungkook feels it to be the end of his world.

In a flash, he was made an orphan. He was still an underage 12 year old boy. The scar was already deep and the fact didn't help that his paternal uncle who didn't care much about his well-being would send him to an orphanage now.

He decided to run away and hid himself which costed him to live only on convenience store ramyon noddles for straight 2 days until he ran out of the little money he had.

He starved for a whole day and a night as he was unable to sleep on an empty stomach.

He would stroll in the streets during the day and would spend the night in his childhood playground.

The next day, he decided to go to his school when it's dismissed to ask his few friends to lend him some money.

In school.

The small figured timid boy with his lips pressed against each other peeked in to locate his friends in the crowd of students coming out of the gate.

He was startled by a sudden familiar voice sounded from his right. He turned to find his hyung, Kim Taehyung, the son of his late mom's best friend. He was a high school sophomore.

Taehyung ran to him erasing the distance between them and started to shower him with questions.

"YAH, Where were you these 3 days? Where did you sleep, what did you eat? Do you know how much we were worried?" He breathes out as he finishes.

Jungkook on the other hand, held his head low not uttering a single word.

"Let's go home!" Taehyung exclaims holding the younger's wrist.

"I don't want to." Jungkook replied freeing his hand followed by a growl of his stomach.

Taehyung sighs looking at the worn out school uniform in the younger's body, "Okay, let's eat something first. Come with me."

Jungkook trusted him more than anyone in this world after his parents of course. So, he followed Taehyung to a Korean restaurant without any debate.

Taehyung wondered how hungry he must be looking amazed at the young boy crazily digging into the noodles he ordered.

"Yah, eat slow. You will choke yourself." He says pushing a glass of water towards him.

The beast Jungkook became to the food slowed down after having most of it.

"How long have you been starving?" Taehyung asks concerned.

"Since yesterday.", Jungkook says gulping down all the left over soup in the bowl.

Taehyung knew he wouldn't run away without a reason so instead of forcing him to return home he tried to know the reason.

"Does home remind you of Mom and dad? Is that the reason you are running away?"

He shook his head.

"What's wrong then? You can tell your hyung." He said with a soft voice.

"Uncle Jeon will send me to an orphanage. I don't want to go there.", he finally opens up with a low voice.

Taehyung just nods understanding and they exist the restaurant.

"Then, come to our house." Taehyung suggests as they walk side to side.

"I don't want to be a burden to you or Aunt Kim." He speaks maturely.

"What?! Burden? Come on, Koo. Mom has been crying oceans looking at your mom's picture ever since you went missing and Dad even filed a missing complaint to find you." Taehyung explained.

Jungkook suddenly stopped his steps, making Taehyung to look back and walk to him.

"You trust hyung, right?", Taehyung asks softly placing a hand on the younger's shoulder.

Jungkook thought for a while if it was okay for him to go with him but eventually nodded since he trusted his hyung.

Taehyung smiles, "Don't worry, my mom and dad will find a way that you don't have to go to an orphanage. I promise."

He slowly looks up meeting his Hyung's eyes before nodding with a small smile.

"Let's go." Taehyung says as he wraps his arms around Jungkook's neck friendly and they walk to Taehyung's home which wasn't very far.
