"The Truth"

•

"Where are you going? You have a conference in fifteen minutes," Yoongi states nonchalantly as he watches Jungkook grab his parka by the door.

Jungkook clicks his tongue. "Why not ask the real Jungkook? I've had enough of this—I want to see Jimin!"

"I've been tasked with watching over you," Yoongi says evenly, "and I can use preventive measures as I see fit."

"What—are you threatening me?" Jungkook asks incredulously.

Yoongi merely shrugs. "Conference in—" He glances at his watch, then back at Jungkook. "—ten minutes."

Jungkook kicks the door in frustration. "I don't care anymore. I'm going to Jimin."

"And tell him you're Kim Taehyung in Jeon Jungkook's body? How do you think that will help? He might freak out."

Jungkook exhales, running a hand through his hair. "Fine. What if you drive me? I promise I won't approach him directly."

Yoongi contemplates it—it feels like making a deal with the devil. "If that will shut you up, fine."

Jungkook rolls his eyes and searches his pocket for the handcuff he bought.

Once he stepped out of his office a woman pops out of the side entrance. ""Jungkook!"

Jungkook looks at her. "You are...?" He raises an eyebrow.

"Huh? It's me—Nayeon," she introduces with a wide smile. She's stunning, wearing a light pink bodycon dress and white heels.

Jungkook glances back at Yoongi for support. "I don't know you. Yoongi, take it from here," he says, walking past Nayeon.

"Eh? But our wedding plan!" she cries out.

Jungkook stops mid-step, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "Wedding?"

Nayeon smiles brightly. "Yes. We were supposed to have our wedding in Seoul in two months, but we moved it because of your accident. And you've been avoiding me! Now that I can see you're doing fine, maybe we don't need to postpone it anymore?"

Jungkook nods slowly, grasping the situation. "Ah..." He lets out a breathy laugh.

"Ms. Nayeon, I don't think now is a good time to discuss—" Yoongi tries to intervene, but Jungkook cuts him off.

"Nayeon, let's not move the wedding. I'm sorry for not following through, but we can still make it work. If you need anything regarding the planning, just ask Yoongi." Jungkook's smile is wide and confident.

Yoongi internally groans. He wants to punch Jungkook—something he never thought he'd feel.

Nayeon beams. "I'll see you soon then. Also, about the wedding dress—I asked my mom for help and we narrowed it down to two dresses, but I can't choose. Can you help me decide?"

Jungkook stares at her blankly. "You... need me for that?"

"Yeah..." she says, sheepishly smiling.

He wants to roll his eyes but resists, looking away with an irritated expression. "Sure. Just inform me beforehand." Then he walks away.

Well, let's see if the real Jungkook can still be with Jimin after this, he thinks, adjusting his tie smugly.
