"I can't believe it," you gasped, looking up at your creation. "It's finally finished!"

"Yay!" Sora excitedly exclaimed, clapping her hands. "It looks so cool, y/n!"

"Yeah! It feels like yesterday when we started to assist you with it, and look! It's finished," Jayden sighed. "You did it!"

"What do you mean 'you' did it? We did it! I wouldn't have been able to get this done if it weren't for your help," you smiled. "Thank you, guys."

"No, thank you," Mingyu said. "We've learnt a lot from you, y/n. Now I'm excited to start my own big project like this. I can't wait until we're finally assigned with our own projects."

"Same! I'm so excited to start sculpting something cool like this. y/n's gave me so much inspiration," Sora smiled.

"So this is what the final product looks like?"

You turned around to see Yoongi, Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook.

"Guys!" You smiled.

"Hey, princess," Yoongi greeted, pulling you into his embrace.

"This thing looks so flipping cool, baby!" Jimin exclaimed, looking up at your sculpture. "Looks better than I thought it would!"

"Here," Jungkook said, handing you a butterfly bouquet. "Taehyung and I made this. We thought flowers would be too tacky... "

"Omg, how cute!" Sora squealed. "If my soulmate doesn't do this for me when we're together, I don't want them!"

"Thank you, guys," you smiled before gently kissing their cheeks and taking the bouquet.

"Congratulations on finishing your project, baby!" Jimin exclaimed, clapping his hands. "After many months, you've finally done it."

"Without their help, it would've taken me longer to finish," you said, looking at Sora, Jayden and Mingyu.

"Thank you for helping, y/n," Yoongi smiled.

"It was no problem! We should be thanking her. She taught us a lot during our time with her," Sora said.

"Alright! To celebrate, let's buy lunch! It's my treat," you smiled. "Should we invite the others?"

"The others are on their way," Jungkook said. "They want to see it for themselves."

"How did you guys know we were done with this?" You asked. "I don't remember telling you when we planned on finishing this."

"I did," Mingyu said. "I figured it would be nice if they came and congratulated you right when you were done. Instead of congratulating you after you told them you were done."

"Thanks, dude," Jimin winked, pointing his finger at him.

"Since we're going for lunch, let's get our things," Jayden said.

"Right. We need to get our things before we go out for lunch," Sora sighed. "Let's go. Before the rest of y/n's soulmates come."

"They'll probably take a while," Taehyung chuckled. "But even if they're here before you're back, we'll wait."

"Okay! Let's be quick, guys. I'm not missing an opportunity to get free food."

You could help but laugh as the three of them quickly made their way out of the hall.

"Are you still up to pay for lunch? It's going to be a lot of people," Yoongi asked.

"I'm sure I can handle the bill. I have money too, you know? Probably not as much as you guys have, but I have money," you smiled. "I've been curious about something..."

"What is it?" Jimin asked.

"How do you guys have so much money? I mean... I know you guys do jobs and here and there, but-"

"But there's no way the amount of money we have just comes from those jobs, right?" Yoongi chuckled.

"I wouldn't say it like that..." you muttered.

"We come from pretty wealthy backgrounds," Jungkook sighed. "My parents run a successful law firm. So naturally, I became curious about Criminal Law and Criminology."

"My parents run a tech company," Yoongi sighed. "They wanted me to study IT and some shit like Computer Science. So the fact I'm taking music isn't making them happy."

"Hoseok told Lia that we don't entirely depend on our parent's money as she does. And he was right... we don't. We get money wired into our accounts often, but we try not to use it for our wants. The money we earn is used to buy things we want, and the money sent to us is used to pay for bills and stuff," Taehyung explained.

"Unlike the rest, I don't get money wired to my account. My parents kind of cut me off after the initials appeared. But I guess they still cared for me because after my mother passed, I received a lot of inference," Jimin sighed. "I haven't really put that money to use, though."

"Oh... makes sense," you nodded.

"Woah... is this y/n's sculpture?" Namjoon gasped. "Hey, guys."

"Yup!" Jimin exclaimed. "Every time we see y/n in those cute and big overalls of hers, she was working on this."

"It looks so cool, love," Jin gasped, looking up at the sculpture. "I've only seen portions of it during our calls... not the full thing. I never imagined it would look like this."

"I think this is my first time seeing it," Hoseok gasped. "I don't think I saw it while it was still in the making. I didn't expect this when you were talking about your sculpture. It looks so good."

"Thank you guys so much," you smiled. "I'm so happy that we finished it sooner than expected. Let's go on a trip."

"A trip?" Hoseok asked.

"Mhm," you hummed in response. "After exams, let's go and trip during our break."

"What kind of trip, baby?" Namjoon asked.

"I don't know... A long one? We can go a drive... like a road trip! Stop at a few places in between..." you sighed. "I want us to pack our bags and go somewhere for a while."

"We can do that," Jin smiled. "I'd love to do that. We've been so busy I think we deserve a proper break."

"Are you guys planning on going on a trip?" Sora asked. "We're back and ready for lunch."

"Yeah. We think a trip during the school break is needed," Yoongi said.

"I think you guys should go on a trip," Mingyu said. "So much has happened this semester that you guys deserve to go on a nice trip."

"I think so, too," Jayden smiled. "With Lia... and some other shit, you guys need a proper break."

"If you don't mind me asking... does anyone know what Lia's been up to these days?" Sora asked. "I mean... I didn't expect her to quieten down so quickly."

.

"I was planning on redeeming myself, but how the fuck and I supposed to come back from all that shit?" The girl asked, running her fingers through her hair.

"You have no choice but to return to the states, Miss. It'd be embarrassing if you kept trying," her butler sighed. "But I did try telling you... your attempts would be in vain. Nothing can break the bond those-"

"Shut up, Sung-Ho," she glared. "I don't want to hear anything about Namjoon and his soulmates. Don't even mention Mingyu to me."

"It's too late for that, Miss. I've already said too much," Sung-Ho said. "I told your father everything."

"Why would you do that?" Lia groaned. "You know I'd get sent back to the states-"

"I'm going to drop the formalities so I can be honest with you," Sung-Ho said. "I don't know what happened, but I think some screws went loose on your way here."

"Huh?" Lia asked.

"You've changed. I know it's been two years, but something definitely happened while you were abroad. You've become delusional and obsessive... It's concerning," Sung-Ho sighed. "The reason you'll be sent to the states is to receive help. You need help."

"I don't need help, Sung-Ho," Lia sighed. "I'm fine."

"I don't think you're fine... but if you say you're fine... then you're fine," Sung-Ho muttered.

.

"Do you think she returned to the states?" Jungkook asked.

"Probably," Namjoon shrugged. "I don't think she has anything or anyone other than her family left here. She'd be better off there than here. In my opinion, at least."

"Wherever she is, I hope she's okay... as much as I don't like her or the things she did..." you sighed. "I don't want to wish anything bad upon her. I think she just needs to get checked."

"Same," Mingyu muttered.

"Anyway, enough about Lia. Who's ready to eat?" Sora asked, and everyone raised their hands. "I'm going to order a lot since I'm not the one paying.~"

"My poor account," you sighed while Yoongi laughed beside you.

"Still think you can handle the bill?" He asked, raising a brow.

"I think I can."
