Choose One [ Taehyung x IU ]

Chapter 10

JIEUN gulps the water from a 1.5 liter bottle, scratching her head.

"I'm really really sorry, Jieun. Maybe the one you met before wasn't me. I'm sorry I wasn't being honest with you. I apologize for saying any hurtful words to you o-or act rude... I'm sincerely sorry.."

"Why are you apologizing to me?" Jieun forms a thin smile staring at Taehyung's gloomy face.

"I don't know what you're thinking, but everyone's not perfect. Each and every person on this world has their own flaws, am I right? Maybe this is yours that you don't want anyone to know and I totally understand. You don't need to apologize. So.. now that I know your condition, of course I can't be mad about V's attitude. By the way, he is extremely rudee" Jieun pouts thinking about what he said to her.

Taehyung lets out a small chuckle.

"He caused you lots of troubles?"

"Not really.. but super annoying. For one second, I thought you were being nice to me to get Nayeon" explained Jieun.

"Nayeon?" Taehyung raises his eyebrow.

"Yupp. Nayeon, my best friend. But nowww, I think V is attracted to her"

"V asked about Nayeon?"

"Asked? No! He wanted Nayeon's number, desperatelyyy" Jieun laughs, funny how it seemed so stupid when she was mad at V.

Taehyung paused for a while.

"Why did he have to ask from you when he could just get it himself?" Taehyung wonders.

"How should I know? Shy, maybe?" Jieun smiles.

"V, shy? He never gets shy. He's never scared. He doesn't need to ask you if he's that desperate cause he can do everything, on his own" said Taehyung causing Jieun's smile fades. Feeling shivers down her spine, her heart is beating rapidly and almost stops for a moment.

FINISHED having dinner, Jieun and Taehyung walks together heading to jieun's hotel with a heavy silence.

"I called Jimin earlier. He said usually you'd bring Yoongi if you go abroad. Why don't you bring him this time?" Jieun's question breaks the quiet atmosphere.

"If I have work overseas then yes, I'd ask him to tag along. But i thought this time, i'd like to be alone. Having some me time. I thought I could handle myself but seems like I failed" Taehyung grins. The man's face is starting to grow some facial hair that had been shaved.

From having baby face, now he looks more masculine. His eyes never seem calm. Every time Jieun looks into his eyes, they're like expressing so much hatred and rage. Maybe since his under eye lashes are a bit thick, but honestly those eyes really catch Jieun's attention. Especially when V appears, it's like those eyes are made especially for V with his fierce and temper personality. His sharp gaze, but just for a while, Jieun thinks those eyes make her heart.. waittt ughhh ignore that feeling!

"Jieun..?" Taehyung waves his arm in front of Jieun's face making her startled and quit daydreaming (uh it's not day but yk what i mean)

"What were you thinking?" Taehyung giggles softly.

"N-nothing" jieun shakes her head and smiles, fixing her cardigan.

"So.. you come here just for a holiday?"

"Yeah, didn't expect to see you here. Well soulmates are meant to be right?" Grinned Taehyung.

Jieun smiles awkwardly. They stop as soon as they reached in front of Jieun's hotel.
