You packed your bag with the things you needed to carry to Taehyung studio and headed out.

Jimin~ don't disappear yet

(y/n)~ if it makes you feel comfortable sure

Jimin~ yayyyy 😁

you looked up at your neighbor and remembered about your sister and what she told you about the family coming to see you today.

"if anyone comes here saying they're my family just tell them I'm out for the day and to try some other time cause you don't know when I'm coming back".

your neighbor gave a you worried look "are you sure ?"

"yes and if they ask you where I am just say you don't know"

"(y/n)..." your neighbor called out to you in a concern tone while you tried to walk away "please" you begged so she gave in and sat in her chair. "Alright I'll tell them you gone ahead now and be safe" you smiled at her "thank you" she smiled back at you and you left for the park.

You neared the entrance of the park and spotted Jimin's bright pink hair

(y/n)~ come to the gate Im here

Jimin~ that was actually pretty fast 😳

(y/n)~ just come here so we can go 😑

Jimin~ lol okay

He got up from the bench he was sitting on and came towards the gate where you stood. You two made eye contact and he gave you his usual eye smile, you couldn't help but smile back at him. "you look nice today" you looked down at your outfit and looked back at him "I guess...lets go we have things to do". "well ill lead the way" "as you should cause neither of you gave me directions to the place" jimin looked at you surprised then laughed "wait we didn't" you stared at him blankly. "yeah you didn't" he looked down at his shoes and looked at you sideways and spoke in a soft tone "sorry its my fault" you shrugged "it doesn't matter right now since we're walking their together".

He smiled and gave you a big hug "so your not mad", you stood still for a bit since the hug came out of nowhere. He let you go and you both continued walking "no I'm not mad its just something i wouldn't be mad at".

"oh and sorry if I made you uncomfortable I'm a hugging type of person"

"its fine"

Ping !

Your phone went off in your hand, you looked at your phone screen and it was (s/n). so you just ignored it and put your phone in your pocket after turning the ringer off so yo could continue to talk to jimin without being bothered.

{At The Studio}

Tae opened the door for you two and you both walked inside. it had unpacked boxes and things that were covered down with sheets, The place also needed to be swept.

"So we gonna start now or.."

"yeah we are"

Taehyung took your bag from you and rested it on a near by table. You stretched and walked over to the boxes to unpack them and jimin went for the broom while Taehyung removed and folded the covers from the furniture.

{30 Min Into Cleaning and Unpacking }

"its getting boring tae play some music"

Tae listened to jimin's request and pulled out his phone and a small speaker to play music. You had your phone on the table near by where Tae stood so tae picked it up "uh (y/n) you have a lot of missed calls from your mom and someone named (s/n) they also texted you a lot". You didn't even look back to look at tae or you phone "leave it" you said. Jimin leaned on a chair holding the broom. "why it could be something important" You turned around to face the two boys and opened your mouth to speak but your phone began to ring which made tae jump from the sudden vibration in his hand.

"its your mom again"

You got up and walked over to tae and took your phone. you looked at the contact and then at the two, they motioned for you to answer so you did.

"hello"

"(y/n) where are you why aren't you home !?"

you didn't respond which earned a sigh from your mother.

"(y/n) your neighbor is claiming she doesn't know where you are an I know she does"

"leave Ms. Jeffers alone"

you heard (s/n) in the background "ask her why she left if she knew we were coming"

"no (s/n) I'm talking to her right now you'll get your turn"

you just listened to your sister and mom argue while your dad try to reason with them so you just hung up on them. They immediately called back but you declined it and handed your phone over to Taehyung so he could rest it on the table.

"(y/n) are you ok ?" Jimin asked you concerned

"I'm fine" you walked back over to the box to finish unpacking it and tae followed behind you to help.

{Few Hours Later}

you three sat on the long couch drinking from your water bottles. most of the work was done but it still has a few more boxes to unpack.

"If you don't mind can I ask you something"

you leaned your head back on the couch

"go ahead knock yourself out" Tae sat up and turned to look at you "were you in the collapse two years ago" you looked at tae and his eyes seem to beg for an answer. "yes I was that's how I got my scar" Jimin leaned over to inspect the scar on the side of your face before leaning back on the cushion again. Tae nodded and played with his bottle cap between his fingers. "(y/n) ?" you looked over at tae again.

"yeah"

"who's the girl that's on the fourth page of your sketch book"

"my best friend" Taehyung eyes widen "really ?"

"well yeah she was... but she died in the collapse"

"I'm so sorry" Jimin and Taehyung both apologized but you just shrugged it off "its okay you don't have to apologize.....her name was (bff/n)"

Jimin leaned forward "it was an earthquake that cause that collapse and a lot of people lost a lot of precious things to them that day"

"I lost her and my memories that day"

"Wait your memories ?!"

"It's complicated really when it comes to my memories.....I lost a lot of memories and the ones that I have are fine but they're cut up in pieces and they don't really make sense"

"So your family ?" Jimin question "I only remember my sister and my mom no one else" "is that why you didn't want to answer her calls ?" Tae asked. You got up and walked over to the table where your bag was. "I guess it's a bit more complicated when it comes to them" the two nodded understanding that it must be really hard for you.

"How long have you been doing art for ?"

Jimin asked trying to change the subject too lighten up the mood. "Last year so I've been doing art for almost a year now" the two were surprised at your answer.

"Really and your that good"

"When I was younger I used to draw but I was really bad at it but after a year of recovery from the collapsed I tried drawing again and I was way better than I remembered"

Jimin smiled and walked over to you "well at least you still have something to hold onto"

Taehyung looked at the time on his phone "we should leave and go home now it's getting late"

"Let's go eat something together first"

Jimin idea was quickly accepted and you three left locking up the studio to go get something to eat.

{After a happy dinner with the boys}

You got home and met a car in your drive way just parked up there. You pulled out your keys from your bag and Ms. Jeffers walked over to the fence to talk to you.

"They refused to leave so they found the spare key on the porch and went inside"

"Don't worry I'm not mad I knew they weren't gonna leave"

Ms. Jeffers nodded and left to go into her house after giving you one more concern glance. You walked up the steps and unlocked your front door walking inside and closing it behind you. You turned around and met five pairs of eyes in your living just staring back at you.

"My spare key give to me please"

Your mom stood up holding the spare key to her chest. "No I wanna hold onto it for us to use" you approached your mom and put out your hand waiting for the key. She looked at your hand then at you, your expression didn't change from the blank expression you held since you came inside.

"The key" She finally gave in and rested it in your palm hesitantly. You walked past her and went straight to your room and rested it in your dresser dropping your bag and phone on the bed and going back down the stairs.

"(Y/n) I brought a photo album to help jog more of your memories"

The voice was unfamiliar to you so you looked in the direction of the voice. It was an old woman most likely your grandmother that you don't remember.

"No thanks I've given up on that memory stuff and so should all of you"

They all looked sad at your stern words, and you don't mean to hurt them when you say this but it was for the best.

"Well let's just have some family time and catch up you know talk a little"

You looked at the guy next to your sister.

"Dad is right"

Your sister said walking over to you. You put up your hands in a reassuring position.

"Please when I'm ready I'll tell you all when we can but as of right now I'm not so please leave"

"Do you hate us (y/n)"

A much younger voice spoke to you you looked over at the young boy. He seemed to be about maybe 14 or 15 years old. That's the little brother your sister and mother always tried to get you to remember so much. You sighed and rubbed your face feeling stressed out.

"No....I don't hate you all I just..I just feel like I should be alone right now...and when I'm ready then I'll do things with you guys like family stuff"

"Mom and (s/n) was right about you you keep using your stupid memory problem to push people away when all we want to do is help you why can't you just get over it and move on"

You felt something in you snap an you felt was rage.

"Do you even have the slightest idea of what it feels like to be me..."

Your little brother opened his mouth to speak but you cut him off.

"I SPENT MY WHOLE RECOVERY YEAR GETTING OVER THE TRAUMA OF BEING IN A BUILDING THAT COLLAPSED ON ME ALONG WITH THE DEATH OF MY BEST FRIEND THAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BY WAY I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN OVER WHILE BEING FORCED TO TRY AND REMEMBER THINGS BECAUSE ALL OF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO LET GO, SO YOU ALL FORCED VIDEOS, PICTURES AND CONVERSATIONS OF MEMORIES DOWN MY THROAT CONSTANTLY THINKING YOU WERE HELPING ME WHEN ALL YOU DID WAS HURT ME MAKING ME REALIZE I CANT REMEMBER ANY OF THOSE GOOD THINGS IN MY LIFE ANYMORE !!!"

Silence filled the room

"DON'T YOU THINK I WANNA MOVE ON AND GET ON WITH MY LIFE LIKE ITS NORMAL WITH YOU GUYS !!"

Silence continued to fill the air

"WELL GUESS WHAT NEWS FLASH I CAN'T SO INSTEAD OF BOTHERING ME EVERYDAY OF THE WEEK FORCING ME TO TALK TO YOU AND COME VISIT YOU TO JUST LISTEN TO YOU GUYS TRY AND FIND MORE WAYS TO BRING BACK MEMORIES WHY DON'T YOU ALL JUST LEAVE ME ALONE !!"

Everyone was shocked from your sudden angry out burst. Your mother covered her mouth while your grandma hung her head low and your dad held onto your sisters shoulder while your brother just stared at you.

Your mother tried to touch you to give you some sort of comfort but you flinched away and turned you back to them.

"Please just....leave"

They finally listened to your directions and began to pile out your house leaving behind your dad in the door frame. "I'm sorry (y/n) we didn't mean to make you feel this way"

You didn't respond back to him so he just close the door and left. You sat on your couch and rest your face in both of your hands.

{Two hours later}

You finally had the energy to get up now, you noticed that they left behind the photo album.

You picked it up and carried it to your room and placed it on your bed. You stared at it contemplating whether or not you should open it but your phone began to ring so you answered it instead.

"Hello ?"
