JIMIN POV 
Jimin looked at his phone then 
at the clock, then at his phone again.
It was nearly noon and he 
hadn't heard from Jungkook since the previous morning 
when they'd all left the hospital.
Not that Jimin was worried 
about him or anything.
Well, not super worried...
Jimin looked at his phone for 
the millionth time. 
It wasn't like he had to wait 
for Jungkook to call first. 
All Jimin had to do was dial 
the number.
But what would he say? 
Did he need a reason to call?
No.
He didn't need a reason. 
He just needed to hear 
Jungkook's voice.
Jimin stood up from the couch and grabbed his phone. 
"I'm gonna make a call in 
the other room, Pop."
"Do you need anything from 
the kitchen while I'm up?"
"No, thank you." Pop waved a dismissive hand, barely taking his eyes off the TV. 
"Say hi to kookie for me."
"I'm not necessarily calling
Jungkook." Jimin lied, shooting his grandpa a sideways glance 
as he walked into the kitchen 
and started dialing Jungkook's number.
The call connected after just 
one ring but Jimin almost couldn't hear Jungkook's voice for all the background noise. 
It sounded like he was taking 
the call from an airport runway.
"Hey I was just, uh... thinking about you." Jungkook said. 
"How's it going?"
Even through all of the 
noise, Jimin could hear the 
exhaustion in Jungkook's voice.
"Where are you?" Jimin asked, ignoring Jungkook's question 
for now. 
"I mean... hi."
"But really, what's all that 
noise?"
"Are you landing a plane?"
"It's the plumber and his 
crew and the Shop-Vac and 
the, uh, fans." Jungkook 
paused as the noise receded. 
"Sorry about all of that, I've stepped outside now."
"Can you hear me better?"
Jimin blinked. 
"Yeah but... wait, what?"
There was a lot to take in all 
at once. 
Plumbers and fans and what 
in the world was Jungkook 
even talking about?
"The plumber has been here 
all morning, I spent most of 
the night ripping up carpet 
and setting up fans and it's a mess." Jungkook sighed. 
"The whole place is flooded 
and it's so frustrating because 
it was just starting to look and feel like an actual home, you know?"
"Oh my God." Jimin paced 
from the dining room to the living room without realizing 
until he noticed Pop giving 
him a concerned look. 
"How is it flooded? We 
haven't even had any rain."
"Did your pipes burst?"
"Kook's house is flooded?" Pop asked.
Jimin could only nod as 
Jungkook continued.
