‎POV: The afternoon had been unusually quiet in the house. With their husbands away at the office, Wonu, Kwan, Uji, Han, Shua, and Hao were left with nothing to do. ‎ ‎Wonu was the first to break the silence. ‎ ‎“I wanna play.” ‎ ‎Kwan immediately looked up, his eyes lighting up. “Me too. I wanna go to the playground.” ‎ ‎Han glanced toward the guards stationed outside before lowering his voice. ‎ ‎“What if we go? Let’s sneak out. You guys in?” ‎ ‎“What if our husbands get mad?” ‎ ‎Han shrugged with a mischievous smile. ‎“That’s why we’re sneaking out, right? Of course they’ll get mad when they find out.” ‎ ‎Shua quickly looked around. “Shhh... Keep it down. The guards might hear us and report us.” ‎ ‎Hao leaned closer to the group. “Okayyy... So, are we sneaking out? Right now?” ‎ ‎“Yeah. Right now." ‎ ‎Uji frowned as he thought about the guards outside. “How are we gonna get past the guards?” ‎ ‎“I’ll handle it. Just stick with me, okay?” Han assured them. ‎ ‎Wonu bounced excitedly in his seat. “Yehey... Play, play... I wanna play.” ‎ “Come on, Wonu. Keep it down. Stop singing.” ‎ ‎Han rubbed his chin, trying to come up with a plan. “Guys, be quiet. I’m trying to think of a way for us to sneak out.” ‎ ‎“Okay, what if we tell the guards we’re going shopping? Then, once we’re in the car, we’ll tell them we forgot our phones.” ‎ ‎Uji blinked. “So we’re actually leaving our phones here?” ‎ ‎“Yeah. That way, they’ll come back here to get them. Once they’re gone, we’ll leave.” ‎ ‎Hao looked confused. “Wait... How are our husbands supposed to call us if we leave our phones behind?” ‎ ‎Wonu crossed his arms and huffed. “Hmph... That’s their punishment for not letting us go out.” ‎ ‎“Wonu’s right. It’s their punishment for not letting us have fun.” ‎ ‎Hao simply shrugged. “Oh, okay.” ‎ ‎Han stood up and motioned for everyone to follow him. ‎ ‎“Let’s go.” ‎ ‎Wonu immediately followed, practically skipping. “Let’s go! Play, play!” ‎ ‎The group quietly slipped out, leaving their phones behind exactly as planned. ‎ ‎Meanwhile, at the office, Cheol was in the middle of a meeting with Gyu, Hosh, Vern, Jun, and Seokmin when his phone suddenly buzzed. ‎ ‎He glanced at the notification and opened the message from one of the guards. ‎ ‎(Sir, sir Han and the others ran away. They left their phones behind.) ‎ ‎Cheol's eyes widened. ‎ ‎“WHAT?! THEY’RE GONE?!” ‎ ‎Gyu nearly jumped out of his chair. “Fuck! Why are you yelling, Cheol? What happened?” ‎ ‎Cheol stood up abruptly. ‎ ‎“Shit! Han and the others ran away. They left their phones behind.” ‎ ‎“They just ran away— WHAT?! THEY RAN AWAY?!” ‎ ‎“Fuck! How the hell did they get out?” ‎ ‎“I don’t know...” Cheol ran a hand through his hair, clearly panicking. “Shit! How are we gonna find them?” ‎ ‎“Let’s split up and look for them.” ‎ ‎“Gyu, call Chan,” Hosh ordered. “Tell him we need more people to help search for them.” ‎ ‎“I already texted him. Let’s go.” ‎ ‎Cheol turned toward Jun and Seokmin, who were still processing what had happened. ‎ ‎“Jun, Seokmin, let’s go. Don’t just stand there staring. Call us if you find anything or get an update on where they are.” ‎ ‎Seokmin grabbed his jacket. ‎ ‎“Damn! Where are we even supposed to look? They left their phones behind.” ‎ ‎Jun suddenly thought of something. ‎ ‎“They love playing... How about we start at the playground?” ‎ ‎Everyone went silent. ‎ ‎But then, Cheol froze. ‎ ‎His expression suddenly became serious upon reading the guard's text message again ‎ ‎“...This is bad.” ‎ ‎The others looked at him. ‎ ‎Cheol looked at the others seriously and told them the terrifying news. ‎ ‎“They took their passports with them. They’re not even in Korea.” ‎ ‎Gyu cursed when he heard the news. Seokmin was left speechless, Jun stared blankly, Hosh froze, and Vern gritted his teeth. ‎ ‎For a moment, nobody said anything. ‎ ‎Then the five men exchanged looks before rushing out of the office. The search was no longer just about finding them. ‎ ‎They had to figure out where they had gone and how far they had already gotten. #seventeen #seventeenau #seventeen17_official #pov ‎ - @wwooonnuu
