I saw behind me, noticing that Jimin-hyung was arriving along with Taehyung. As soon as they got towards us, Taehyung stood by my side, and Jimin went over with Jodie. I exchanged glances with Jimin, which made him bite his bottom lip anxiously. I felt a knot on my throat at the look of the situation; after all, I've never seen Taehyung so earnest in my entire life.
-Continue talking; we just wanted to come and greet you both. – Taehyung spoke, containing the words he honestly wanted to tell.
-Go ahead, Jodie. – Jimin said while looking at his girlfriend.
Jodie didn't know what to do, so she took a deep breath before looking back at me.
-Remember what I told you, Jungkook. Once you demonstrate to me that you are everything my brother needs, I'll stop bothering you. But for now, I'm going to watch over you. – Jodie spoke, unsettled.
-Jagiya, you went too far. Jungkook is your best friend. – Jimin said while looking at Jodie, concerned.
-Yes, he is. But I need to know how much I can trust him. – Jodie said without caring that Taehyung is next to me.
-I won't hurt Taehyung. And if I do, I'll apologize and solve our problems. – I declared, feeling irritated. -And you don't have to compare me with how I used to be, Jodie. You didn't have to bring up Yoongi again. – I spoke as I could feel my voice cracking at the end.
-Did you mention, Yoongi? – Jimin asked Jodie, but before she could answer, Taehyung spoke.
-You went there, little sister. – Taehyung said, amazed. -Wow! It feels that I'm getting a déjà vu, don't you think that way, Jimin? – Taehyung spoke while looking at Jodie firmly.
-No, Taehyung. Stop right there. – Jimin sighed worriedly.
-This situation takes me back to when Jimin and I almost put our friendship in jeopardy because of you, Jodie. – Taehyung disclosed without holding back. -And now, you are doing the same thing with Jungkook, but this time I'm the one in the middle. And honestly, I don't want to be part of that. I lived that once and I almost lost my best friend. – Taehyung said as I noticed how he started to lose his patience.
-Taehyung. – I said while holding his hand.
-Jodie, let's go home. Please, you didn't have to do this, dear. – Jimin said, taking Jodie's hand and wanting her to go with him. I could tell that Taehyung's words hit Jodie like a bullet to the chest, but I couldn't do anything about it. Everything is said and done.
-Jungkook will never hurt me, but you already did, Jodie. If I suffered before, well, that's on you! When you gave me false expectations about us and making me believe things that weren't real! – Taehyung yelled at Jodie, making her flinch.
