Ladies and gentlemen thank you so much for today. Thank you for coming together and joining hands with the euphoria foundation. The music and the party will be beginning shortly."

"Taehyung, over here"

A small-statured man with cat-like eyes and a gummy smile beckoned the man with the announcement closer to a group of four people.

"Yoongi hyung, today went well right " tae replied with the same enthusiasm

"Today went better than we ever expected, have you checked with the band performing today, there won't be any issues right"

"No, hobi hyung there won't be any problem but have you guys seen jimin, I am searching for him," he asked with a grave and concerned face, voice laced with worry and sadness.

"You know him tae, just give him a little bit of time, events like these are very difficult for him especially the last speech, hopefully, today there won't be any ridiculous questions asked . " yoongi sighed angrily as he reminisced the times his little brother had to endure pain because of these mindless reporters who have lacked the most basic humanity in them.

The grim atmosphere and sombre faces have become a constant presence in their life. The only thing that had kept them going is this foundation that helped them and the recipients immensely. They hoped for the spring to come once again, they hoped for the winter to end, they hoped and hoped until when they too didn't know.

"Namjoon hyung, about the surprise, do you think it will be beneficial," tae asked.

"I don't know buddy, I don't know but I hope jimin won't take it as anything other than what the surprise suggests". Namjoon patted tae as they all sat waiting for jimin.

"You know right coming here before all the events won't make you feel any better" a soft voice broke the tranquillity of the ambience.

The soft breeze caressed him ever so lightly touching him gently as if assuring him, giving him the strength to face the World happily and together.

"You are wrong jin hyung it helps me, it helps me a lot. " jimin smiled a last serene smile as he stood up.

"Let's go hyung they are waiting for us " he looked back to the sea one last time as he walked away just like he does it every time. He doesn't want to go, he wants to stay at the beach every day if he could watch the sunrise and the sunset if he could just lay there under the stars with the gentle breeze embracing him in a protective cocoon if he could, he would but not today, he has work, a life to live and until then he would come back and until the has nothing to give to the world then only he will reside here permanently.

"You know jimin, I have never seen someone so strong and brave as you. You make me proud, you make hyung proud" jin clasped jimins hand, as the need to portray his emotions overwhelmed him.

"Thank you hyung sincerely thank you"jimin laid his head on his hyungs shoulder as the car moved towards his destination.

¶¶

"There they are " tae jumped and ran towards jimin and jin as he saw them entering the venue.

"Jimin thank God I... I thought" he hugged his friend tightly

"I will come tae, I will always come" jimin patted taes back as he smiled slightly at the sight of all his friends. They are his pillars, his family.

"Let's go it's time " with that they all moved towards the makeshift platform. Handing jimin the mic they all stood below the stage.

"Hello, my name is jimin, the founder and co-owner of this euphoria foundation. Thank you to all the people present over here for your presence and for supporting the foundation."

The world before him suddenly looked obscure and dark as his mind replayed that beautiful giggle.

"Ah hyung, jiminie hyung "

"Jiminsi!! You did great now smile "

"Uhnn! Are you nervous hyung, don't be I am here with you always and forever"

"I know you are here, always with me" the haziness has been cleared

With a watery smile, jimin proceeded to address the audience

"We have started this organisation since 3 years ago and it has been a roller coaster ride with so many ups and downs "

"Mr jimin can you please tell us why you decided to open this foundation and is there some kind of backstory to it " came to a voice from behind the rows of reporters who were present to attend this event.

Jimin smiled at the reporter as he acknowledged the question with a single nod of his head

"Thank you for asking the question it has been a long time since we have organised this kind of event with reporters for coverage so I think it's valid that I should again reiterate the entire story behind the base of the foundation" a bitter smile played on his lips.

"As we all know that this foundation specialises in helping the cancer patients, gathering funds to provide proper Medication and provide a proper place for them to reside and help them to recover. even if they are on their final stage of life where hope has become a distant dream at least they can leave this place happily and that has always been the driving force for this foundation. "

"Now for the question about the reason why I opened this organization is that a very dear person of ours has left us but we would like to think, today he is in a much better place than any one of us present here can be." Jimin took a shivering breath.

"At the time when he was under the clutches of this deadly disease we were unaware. we were clueless as to the symptoms of this. no matter how much we try to educate ourselves we still couldn't help him the way we wanted we were not established financially we didn't have the funds and the chemotherapy was expensive, so as the medications we always wondered if we could have just had the right amount of things we needed could he have been alive maybe or maybe not. We can't deny the obvious." He bitterly chuckled as more treacherous tears left, he felt hands around his waist his hyungs there with him, his supporters.

He took a deep breath

"Yes so after that we decided that we need to do something, something that lacked in our case, even if we couldn't save our friend if we could save someone else's friend, sister, brother, husband, wife, son, daughter, maybe our friend who is watching us up there would be happy and live in peace. "

Jimin sucked in a quivering breath.

"Any more questions," his hyungs asked

Several hands were raised and then went on what jimin thought was the most excruciating moment of his day today well apart from the constant sadness that had made a place on his heart since the day he left.

"Jiminah you okay," yoongi asked as jimin took a seat after the press

He nodded as the event continued with dance, music and recitals. In his ignorance what he failed to notice was, how his hyung was fidgeting nervously, the eye's darting towards him now and then.

The event came to an end.

Thankfully jimin has no role in the ending speech.

He just wants to go to their home where he wants to wallow for the rest of the day. He drowned the rest of the ending speech until all the people were dispersed and only his hyungs remained.

"........... the last surprise for Mr park jimin " he jerked in alarm when he heard his name being mentioned. Surprise. He looked towards his hyungs as they avoided him awkwardly,

he knew something is up.

The lights dimmed as the projector started playing.

For the first few minutes, you could only see a studio, a music studio but wait, jimin's eyes widened in surprise when recognition filled in, he watched his hyungs who were discreetly peeking for his reaction. He scoffed in disbelief.

The studio, the Freaking studio that jungkook had, how dare they enter into the place, he was sure he managed to completely isolate that place, it held infinite memories for them, a place so sacred for them, he closed his eyes as he tried to control the incoming headache and the sting of tears. He felt betrayed.

"Sorry, that took a lot of time" he heard a voice, specifically from the video playing before him. That voice, he gasped loudly as a boy entered into the frame.

He was paralysed.

That's how he felt.

He couldn't breathe.

The boy in front of him apologised and gave a sheepish smile.

He died a little.

"Hello I am jeon jungkook " he introduced himself and scrunched his nose in a smile that took away his breath.

He stared because that's what he can do only.

"By the time you would be receiving this video I would have long gone " he chuckled a bit

"You are gonna miss me right" an ugly sob ripped out of jimins chest as he collapsed on the ground.

The hyungs tried to stabilise jimin just to get violently shrugged off him.

"I am recording this video not to make anyone sad or cry because I know that you will only receive this video when I will be not there to hold you. I am sorry jiminsii. But I couldn't leave this world without doing this." Jungkook smiled sadly as he turned towards the piano.

The entire hall was silent as the first sound of piano filled in, jimin was lifeless, as he just watched the screen in front of him with a blank face, tears streaming continuously.

"You are the sunlight that rose again in my life

A reincarnation of my childhood dreams

I don't know what these emotions are

Am I still dreaming?

There is a green oasis in the desert

A priori deep inside of me

I'm so happy, I can't breathe

Everything's getting blurry"

***Do you remember jiminsii! How we met? I have always believed in destiny even though everybody mocked me for such*** he chuckled a little as his eyes turned Misty.

***you were like a breath of fresh air, a new sunrise in my dark world, you were that smile, I was failed to have. Being with you was everything for me. Everything I wished. Sometimes I wondered if you were an illusion but then you will kiss me with such softness that even if this was an illusion I would live to fade in yours.***

Jimin curled upon himself as he rocked back and forth. This is too much, too much, he can't take it.

He gasped as an abrupt rush of adrenaline hit him and he ran, away from reality, as he had always wanted to. He doesn't want to live like this anymore. He had endured enough.

Jimin ran blindly out in the pouring rain, the universe crying with him too. Tears blurring his eyes, he couldn't hear the panic shouts of his hyungs as a bright light was the only thing he saw when everything went black.
