"Hyung, what the hell is happening?" Hoseok sounds stressed and worried on the other line. Yoongi couldn't blame him, though. Hoseok has been away for nearly three years, so the only way of communicating with Yoongi and Taehyung is through chats and video calls.

"I think Taehyung just slipped into little space, Seok, and I'm terrified. I don't think I can take care of him perfectly like how you would when you were still here. I'm scared..." Yoongi steps on the brake as soon as he arrives outside of Taehyung's apartment building.

"Hyung, you're a great caregiver. Remember when Taehyung got super stressed during his last days in uni? I wasn't there, but you helped me in taking care of him. You calmed him down more easily than I could've. He's sweet and attentive when you're the one taking care of him, because he's usually bratty when it comes to me."

Yoongi smiles upon reminiscing the times Hoseok would whine over the phone, nagging about how unfair Taehyung is, treating them both in a different manner.

"I know you're smiling. So, go to our Taetae and take care of him. You know where his toys are placed, right?"

"Yeah, I didn't forget."

"How 'bout his favorite meal for dinner?"

"I'll buy him his happy meal later."

"His sippy cup?"

"Inside the cupboard along with his pacifier. And, I won't put plain milk because he prefers strawberry milk."

"But remember not to give him too much, okay?"

"Okay, Seokkie."

"You're gonna do great, hyung. I have to go now. Don't forget to update me."

"I will, Seok. Bye."
