Taehyung’s P.O.V.

I stared at his back watching him hurry away from me after his true emotions slipped out of his mouth.

“Jin!” I ran after him to see him briskly cross the hall, sidestepping the conversations he was being invited to with a smiling denial as he hastened to get away from me.

This was it…it’s now or never…and I have to, just have to stop him and make him see that I am trying to change…I can do it for him…why can’t he see I’m hurting so much? I can see he’s hurting too! He still loves me and yet why is he trying to push me away like this?!

I headed to the exit nearer to me to intercept him outside, knowing him he’d hate me more for creating a scene in front of a crowd.

I ran through the passageway drawing quite a few glances, skidding at the turn to hasten towards the elevator.

My heart grinned to see him stepping inside it, and I doubled my speed to get there before the doors closed. Jin turned about and the fear was clear in his eyes as he saw me heading straight for him but my plan worked, and to his utter displeasure I reached the elevator right before it closed.

“Hey” I panted watching Jin frown at me completely confused “I kinda really needed to talk to you”. My breaths were harsh as I took a step nearer to him, and he took a step away making me feel just as guilty and pitiful as I had felt the night I had tried to hold him back.

“We j-just did…I need time Tae” he fiddled with the buttons, trying to find a way out and I blocked his intention.

“Jin-“ “No” he turned the other way “just no…no! I’m not listening to you” he set his palms on his ears, acting weirdly childish as he screwed his eyes shut to make sure I couldn’t affect him in any way.

“Why are you being so damn stubborn?” I spoke feeling agitated to see him discard my every trial.

“Why are you being such an asshole?! I don’t forgive you…I won’t!” He exclaimed, and I realized instantly he was actually fighting giving in to his real emotions.

“I know that…I can see how hard you’re trying” I saw him growing red with emotion and edged just a little closer to caress his warm cheek watching him peek a tiny bit at my fingers before he let his gaze find me.

“What are you doing? I’m not-” “Okay” I assured, content with the way his brown eyes made my heart melt “its okay, you can take your time…you don’t have to forgive me…it’s okay…I can wait..”

He blinked, wordless for the first time as we just stood in the silence around us and I realized it had been a while.

“Mornings are the worst without you…” I said realizing he hadn’t pulled away from my touch “so are the nights, and everything in between” I spoke trying hard to see if he’d call me ‘cheesy’ once again, but he just looked away.

“I’m not gonna get fooled again Tae, I hope you know that” he spoke very seriously and slowly pulled away “I have learned my lesson...and I know that people don't change so easily”

“Why are you punishing me like this? This hurts more, just hurt me you know…take your anger out on me” I felt frustrated with this severe silent and grim treatment. I’m losing my mind now…nothing is going right! Nothing!

“Well, I’m not you” he spoke making my insides cave in utter guilt and I let my hands drop as he sighed “I can’t hurt you just because I’m angry with you…people don’t that to those they really love”

And how casually he can speak about loving me…even while being this cruel...

The silence was absolutely sad as I stood watching him and he denied to spare a glance at me till the doors opened and he tried to walk out.
