TRATS 2: Our Happy Ending

Chapter 33

There's silence between them. Chae does not surprise by her answer because she already guesses it since early.

"Oh..." The only things that came out from her mouth.

"I know you must be expected that answer. Well, I can't blame him though." Jisoo said with a tint of sadness in her voice.

"But Unnie-"

"He has a busy day. He just...busy." She said as she looks down.

Her friend knows she keeps saying it to make her mind think positively.

"Unnie. Jiwoon's birthday is coming up. What do you plan?" Chae changes the subject.

"I think...maybe we can make a birthday party," Jisoo said. Her eyes sparkling a sign that she was excited.

"That's great!! I will invite Jackson and his family. We can have a video call with the boys." Chae suggested.

Jisoo nods in agreement. "Looks like I have to plan it today." She said as she grabs her bag.
"Let's go. I finish my work and how about you? You coming with us?"

"I..." Chaeyoung looks at her phone then back at Jisoo. "I have work to do. Just brings Jiwoon home. He must be tired after such a long day."

She nods and hugs Chae before go get her son and went out. After Jisoo has gone, Chaeyoung sighs and leans her back on the chair and staring at her coffee. Her hands rubbing her stomach feeling the tiny bump.

Jimin hasn't called or texted her since this morning. She wondered if he's busy or he forgot or something else.

They have a break for a short time before continuing their concert again. Yesterday, they just attend The Late Late Show With James Carden. Taehyung sitting on the couch with her head hanging low. 

"Everyone, get ready. We only have 10 minutes left." The manager announced. 

Jimin take his phone and wanted to check it. Then, it hit him. He forgot to text or call his wife this morning. He felt really tired and busy until he forgot about it. 

"I hope she didn't overthink." He mumbles. 

"Somone forgot to do something." Jungkook teases him.

"Shut up, Kook." He rolled his eyes. 

"Hyung, we have to check the choreography thoroughly," Jungkook said

Namjoon agreed and nods. "We have to be sure." He walks toward Jungkook, "The gap between you and I is too big. Don't you think so?"

"Then I have to move to two." Jin states.

"Yes, go to two. You need to go to two to the left." He agreed and went out when the stylist calls him.

But then, the situation change when Taehyung gets into the conversation. 
"The other time, actually you need to move faster. You need to be in one no matter what before you finish your part."

Without knowing, Jin was offended by his talk. "I can't tell the distance." He said in a low and gentle voice. 

"It doesn't matter. You need to be in one anyway." Taehyung insisted.

Jin already turning around, giving him his back. "I was in one. I was." He fights back.

The others already put their attention on those two when feel something will happen. Jungkook slightly elbows Jimin. He just shrugs his shoulder while brushing his teeth.

"And then it's too far for you, right? When we sing 'Spring Day'. Yesterday." Taehyung asks. 

He just shakes his head a little. 

Taehyung continues, "You run, but you should run faster. I run after see you run." 

"Yes, it was far yesterday. I mean, the other day. I ran at full speed at that time. As fast as I could."  Jin's tone becomes a little bit harsh. "Bang, bang, bang. I kept the time and ran."

"You took too long to get ready!" Tae talks back. 

The atmosphere becomes tense second by second. 

"You can just take smaller strides." Jin tries to calm himself since he's the oldest.

"I took really small strides." He said while doing the action with his hands. "We were getting farther apart-" Without letting Tae finish, Jin cut him off.

"I was going fast. There's nothing I can do about it!" He sighs in anger. "I run at full speed to get there. You keep complaining to me. What do you want me to do!?"

"No, I'm not complaining to you. Listen to me!!" Taehyung starts to demonstrate. "After you do this, you take too long to get ready. You can finish this faster and move more quickly."

Jin groaning in frustration, "I'm telling you I'm doing it as fast as I can!!" 
"I'm asking you to take smaller strides."

"I'll try to take smaller strides, so just get ready faster in a shorter amount of time." He keeps saying the same thing to Jin only making Jin pissed.

"I'm doing my best!! I'm doing it as fast as I can!!" Because Jin always thought himself not good at dancing, he offended easily.
"You used to be faster, but suddenly, you can't. I can't suddenly change my starting pose."

When Taehyung is about to talk, Namjoon stops him. 

"Can both of you stop? What do you guys think you are doing?" He asks with a leader tone. Everyone silent in fear.

"We only have a few minutes left. And you guys acting like a 5 years old kid." He said. "Listen, no one fault here. It just needs improvement."

"Everyone, it's the time!!" 

Namjoon sighs in disappointment with his team. He hates to see his friend fighting.
"We will settle this problem after the concert. Let's go." 

Jimin wrapped his arms around Taehyung's shoulder and wiped his tears that had fallen without noticing. "Everything will be fine, Tae."

Yoongi who silent for the whole time, comforting Jin.

"Ugh!! This is so frustrating." Jungkook groaning. 

"Stop complaining, Come on. Before Namjoon kills us." Hoseok said.
