The smile that left your eyes

Part 28

Your POV:

"Do you see anyone?" Ji Ah questioned me.

Tae was looking at me, waiting for my answer. Ji Ah was waiting for my answer. Tae held my hand and looked at me with a lot of hope. I looked at Tae and lowered my head.

How can I tell him? Honestly, I myself couldn't believe that I saw Jimin there.

"What happened?" Ji Ah asked me.

"Did you see Jimin?" Tae asked me.

I nodded slightly gaining a sigh from him.

"Relax, I thought you saw some ghost" he laughed.

I could see that fake laugh. I'm ain't dumb.

"I'll come back in a bit," he said and excused himself.

I sighed and laid my head on Ji Ah's shoulder.

"What again?" She asked me.

"I'm hurting everyone" I mumbled.

She said nothing. I closed my eyes. I saw Jimin's smile. It was pure and it's my treasure. And then I saw Taehyung's gaze. His piercing stare filled with endless talks. Those eyes could say anything. He can't hide cause his eyes say everything. And today, I saw the pain in his eyes.

I'm sorry Tae. I'm really sorry. My heart belongs to someone else.

After a while, Tae came and sat beside me. I turned to see him. His eyes were red and his face was not glowing anymore. All that was because of me. I felt so guilty and sad. I cursed myself. If I had rejected him right away, he wouldn't have pent up his hopes now.

"Y/n, where are you?" Tae was shaking me. I was lost in my thoughts.

"W-what is it?" I asked him.

He looked into my eyes and kinda searched.

"I want to take you somewhere," he said to me.

He started acting normal.

"Sure, let's go after lunch. I'm hungry" I pouted earning a giggle from him.

I too gave in with his acting He nodded and took me to the buffet along with Ji Ah. I was helping myself with all the dishes while Tae and Ji Ah stood behind me.

"Tae don't you dare take her there" Ji Ah whispered.

"That place isn't any ghost house or vacated bungalow" he whispered yelled at her.

"She wouldn't like it," Ji Ah said to him.

I finished serving myself.

"Guys, at least whisper in your ears. I can hear everything" I huffed and left them

They followed me and we all had a peaceful lunch. My stomach was filled and I wished to take a nap but Tae was waiting for me.

I waved to all our friends and left with Tae while Ji Ah left to take a bus back to Seoul.

"Ji Ah, catch a flight dear. You may get tired" I suggested to her but she didn't give in.

I sighed and followed Tae to his car. He pulled to gare to some roads.

I still remember the streets filled with people and those cafes and department stores. Busan is a very peaceful city and good to walk around.

"Can we walk?" I asked Tae who was busy driving.
