"Can you lean on me just like Rain leans on umbrella?"- scribble writer

"Hyung where are you going? It's so late at night" Jungkook said in his sleepy voice.

"Just going to the office. I will be back before you would wake up. Sleep tight"- Taehyung said and left. Although they stay in different apartments, but Jungkook has a habit of crashing into Taehyung or Yoongi's apartment. Yoongi is not at home he went for a meeting to Gwanju so Jungkook is in Taehyung's apartment. 'Blue High' is just 30 minutes from Taehyung's apartment. When he reached there, he saw that the front door is not locked and Jin's car is parked outside.

"Jin is still working? But Jimin texted me that they are done with the arrangements. Strange" Taehyung said. taehyung went inside and saw that Jin is sitting on the floor hugging his knees. He was weeping badly. Taehyung rushed to Jin.

"Jin what happened? Why are you crying? Everything is fine right?" Taehyung asked kneeling down. Jin saw him and hugged Taehyung tightly.

"You told me once that nobody is born bad but situation makes them bad. But what happens to those broken people who try to hold themselves together so they can face this cruel world? Everything is over for me you know? The person whom I gave my heart got married today. The funny part is that I attended his wedding today. He was looking so pretty with his wife. His wife was also looking so good. But what am I left with? Tears and false allegations of being cold and arrogant. Everybody blames me for turning into a monster but nobody apologized me for turning me into one. No one. My dad left me. I had to protect myself you know. It was so hard to bring that cold arrogance. It is so hard to pretend to be strong. The tears just betray me all the time. They come whenever I reminisce my past. As if only my body moved on but not my soul. I thought today I will stay strong but see how broken I am. I don't want to remember my past but it just keeps haunting me. I hate it" Jin said while hugging Taehyung.

"Jin you are strong and I mean it. Don't blame yourself for being an angel. You are the most amazing person I have met till now. You are allowed to break down. You are allowed to fall in love again. You are allowed to lean on people. Even the strongest person needs shoulder to cry. So, its ok" Taehyung said. Jin looked at Taehyung with tears in his eyes. Suddenly he remembered what he was doing. He composed himself and wiped his tears.

"I am sorry Mr. Kim. I didn't mean to lean on like that."Jin said and he was about to get up when Taehyung pulled him down."

"I like you Jin. I am not kidding. It is not some sort of sympathy I am showing you right now. I liked you from the day I met you at Noona's wedding." Taehyung said with sincerity. He could see Jin's flustered face. His ears were red.

"I know it's too early for you to answer. Only keep in mind that there is someone who want you in his life. Don't feel yourself unwanted. You have such lovely friends and also your family. There must be someone." Taehyung said. Jin remembered his mom and Noona. He smiled for a brief thinking about them and also about those idiots who are waiting for him at home. But then Taehyung's confession came in his mind.

"Why?" Jin asked.

"I don't know. There is something which I like about you. You are charming, good looking and also successful. I like people who are hard working. I feel good when I am around you. I like you for what you are. I don't want to change any of it" Taehyung said.

"You can get anyone. You are rich and successful" Jin said. he was just trying to avoid the situation.

"But I just want you" Taehyung said.

"You will regret later Tae" Jin said. Taehyung just stared at him.

"You just called me what?" He asked.
