Jimin pov

"Hi, Mr. Jimin.."

After a few hours of Jin leaving this house, I suddenly heard another doorbell rang. I walk towards the door and slowly, I pulled the door cautiously with the scared feeling if a robber or someone bad is the one who rang the bell since I live alone now.

But, when I pulled the door, Ahreum was revealed at the front of the door. Ahreum bows to me immediately after she saw me. That time, an idea come across into my mind, but before that, I reply her greet back.

"Hi, Ahreum.. Come inside my house.."

Ahreum shakes her head. "No, it's okay, Mr. Jimin.. The purpose I come here is I just want to see Mr. Jungkook for a while. I want to pass these files to be signed by him.."

My eyes looks at the files in her arms. Wait, if Ahreum come here to find Jungkook with that reason, does it means that Jungkook wasn't there and didn't enter his office?

"What do you mean by you want to pass these files to him? Did he enter the office?"

"No, he didn't.."

I stopped talking for a while. If he didn't enter the office, where did he goes to?

"Mr. Jimin?"

Ahreum's voice made me back to the reality.

"Yes?"

"Is Mr. Jungkook at home?"

"H-He's not here."

The sentence seems stuttered when I uttered them. I really don't want her to know that me and her boss is having a problem right now. But, what the other reason I can give to her to cover the actual reason?

"He's not here...? Why?"

There's a sad feeling in my heart when she asked where is Jungkook. Even me myself don't know where he is. What answer that I should give to her? And maybe she notices my face's changes, she close his mouth.

"I-I'm so sorry, M-Mr. Jimin.. I-I'm not supposed to-"

"Don't worry, it's okay, Ahreum.. But, can I ask you something?"

"About what, Mr. Jimin?"

"Before that, come inside my house first.. It's an important matter.."

I know she's afraid when I said it's an important matter. Well, it's true. I need to know the real incident that make Jin hyung mad at me a few hours ago. She steps in and I lead her to our house's living room.

"Don't be afraid, Ahreum.. I won't eat you.. Go and sit there first.. I want to go to the kitchen for a while.."

I pointed at the couch there.

"Alright, Mr. Jimin."

I went into my kitchen and started to make two cups of tea. After a few minutes, I went back to the living while bringing the cups. I sit beside Ahreum and put the cups on the table there.

"Thank you, Mr. Jimin.."

We both take a sip of the tea before I started our conversation by asking her straight forward about what actually happened.

"Ahreum, you must know what happened between Mr. Jungkook and Soyeon on the last time I enter the company, right?"

She nods. "Yes..."

"Can you tell me the whole true story?"

"Whole story?"

"Yes, whole story. Everything.."

I saw her feel a bit hesitated to tell me the story. But, I know, except Jin hyung and Jungkook, she's the other one who knows about it since she always with Jungkook in the company.

"Actually, when he knows that Soyeon is the one who will replace your secretary's position, he really against the idea. He really don't want her. But, when I pass her profile, suddenly he accepts her."

That's the question that always on my mind. Why he accept her even though he know that Soyeon once rejects him for other guy?

"I also don't know why he suddenly changes his mind when at first, he really against it. I open her profile and at that time, I realized the reason why he accepts her."

"Why?"

"Her father is sick and become unable to move or doing anything because of the stroke that happened on him. So, her mother is the one who are working and earn money for their family. Other than that, she is the only child in her family. As far as I know, her mother forced her to search for a work since she already become adult."

I listened to her diligencely not wanting miss any info.

"With the reason of Mr. Jungkook was pity on her, he accepted her. But, as long as she worked here, she never did her job. Yes, maybe she did. But for me, if I can rate her out of 10, I will give her only 2. The other 8 is just she's bothering, disturbing and flirting with Mr. Jungkook. But, he always rejects her action, everytime."

She continues. " Seeing that, I once asked him if he want to terminate her from the company. But, Mr. Jungkook gives a no as an answer. When I asked why, he told me that if he terminates her, her mother will feel burden on earning money. And, he don't want that. He said he felt pity on her mother."

Suddenly, she shows our chatroom to me.

"I know, you must got a message from me saying that Mr. Jungkook want to see you in his office, right?"

I nodded as I remembered back the moment I got the message.

"This is not from me."

"What?"

"She pretended to be me and asking you to come to the company. She told me that her phone was shut off. So, I let her borrowed my phone as she said that she want to make a call. But, I started to feel conscious when she brought my phone far away. At that time, I only think maybe it's her private call. When she gives back my phone, I open my chatroom to see messages and I think she forgot to delete the message she sent to you, and I saw it."

"And after that, I know why she went into Mr. Jungkook's office room immediately after she returned my phone. She started to flirt and seduce Mr. Jungkook because she knows that you will come."

My anger suddenly boiled up hearing that, but I calmed myself down.

"Mr. Jimin, you know what? Mr. Jungkook really loves you. He asked me to not tell you these things but I think you should know.."

"What is it...?"

"He really works hard and even going home late at night to finish his works as much as possible, because he had planned to take a few months of leave.. To take care of you and your baby when he or she was born.."

Wait. He never told me about this.

"The last time he entered the company was about a week ago.. He asked me to make a termination letter for Soyeon."

"Termination letter?!"

Ahreum nodded. "Yes, she was fired.."

I lean my body on the couch trying to interpret the information I got just now. I'm speechless. What I accused him before this is not true at all?

I accused him cheated on me, kissed other woman behind me, and all of that was wrong?

I blamed him for being the reason of our child's death. But literally, it's me. I'm the one who killed our baby. Yes, me.. And me also the one who asked him to get out from this house.. Oh my god, what have I done to him..

And that's when I felt my cheeks are wet with tears.

"I'm sorry, Kookie... I regret it..."
