I'm sorry to I love you | COMPLETED

#23: That's not who we raised you to be.

Chapter Twenty-Three: "That's not who we raised you to be."

"UMM CHAE?" Lisa called out nervously.

"Lisa this is like the tenth time you're interrupting me in a span of half an hour, this better be-"

The rest words of Rosé's words got stuck in her throat when she noticed Lisa extending her phone out with a mixed expression of sadness and anger in her eyes. Rosé took a look at the picture and recognised the Instagram handle. Dispatch. Her eyes travelled down and she couldn't believe it.

Sana (Twice) and Jungkook (BTS) dating

There it was, a picture of Sana's arms around his neck, her face clear as day. Jungkook's back was turned to the camera but it was obvious. His bucket hat, the yellow hoodie that said 'food is life' his newly dyed mint green hair, everything matched. But how could it be? The Jungkook she knew loved her. No, she refused to believe it. There must have been a mistake. She won't believe it.

"Chae?" Jennie called tenderly, entering the room with Jisoo at her tail, carrying Dalgom. They must have known as well.

"Well, I'm going to the studio, the title track needs some finishing touches to be done and I-" Rosé started when Lisa cut her off.

"Chae? you're going to work, when you just found out he cheated on you?"

"I don't believe it Lili, I know you're looking out for me but I trust Jungkook. You know I don't trust someone blindly, trust me on this."

"But shouldn't you at least call him up and ask for an explanation?" Jennie tried. She didn't want Rosé to be hopeful and for that hope to be crushed in the event that Jungkook did cheat on her.

"Whether he cheated or not is a different issue. But either way, he would respect me enough to give me an explanation." Rosé said confidently.

"Will you be okay?" Jisoo asked. She was concerned about her as she was taking it a lot differently than they would expect a girl to.

"Yes unnie, I'll be fine. Thanks guys for worrying about me. I love you guys" she told them, honesty shining in her eyes. She truly was grateful to have three sisters looking out for her.

"Jeon Jungkook, what the HELL is this?" Namjoon raised his voice, anger dripping in his tone. Jungkook had never seen him this angry for a long time and he did not have a good feeling about it. But what did he do?

"Hy-hyung?"

Namjoon shoved his phone towards him, the screen showing his dating rumour with Sana of Twice. Jungkook's eyes went wide as he read the article. By the time he did, the rest of the members had gathered, startled by Namjoon's sudden anger. He had literally just been talking to his plants like a little boy.

Hobi placed a hand on Namjoon's shoulder to calm him down but Namjoon's hardened gaze was fixed on the maknae. "Shit shit shit.." Jungkook cursed, the phone falling onto the bed as his hands shook violently in anxiety. The members picked up the phone and as expected, they were perplexed.

"Is this picture edited or real?" Jin asked, his voice dangerously low.

"It's... It's real" Jungkook answered, his voice shaking.

"What the fuck?" Jimin cursed.

"Are you kidding me right now?" Taehyung couldn't believe it.

"Jeon Jungkook, don't tell me you're fucking playing with princess. Coz if you are, you and I will never be the same again. That's not who we raised you to be," Yoongi gritted out.

"No hyung! I'm not playing with her" Jungkook tried to explain, desperation clear in his voice, but got cut off by Hobi.

"Then what the hell is this?"

"GUYS" Jungkook shouted, "Let me explain". And they did. They listened to him explain.

"I had gone to the bar with Eunwoo and Yugyeom. We were just hanging out when we saw Sana-shi there with a guy, I don't really know who. They were sitting next to our table.They seemed to be arguing and at one point, she cried as he stood up and sat down on another seat, beside a different girl.

Since she was all alone, Eunwoo had grabbed a pack of tissue and dragged me along to give it to her, feeling bad for her as she cried watching who we assumed to be her boyfriend, kiss the girl at his table. She stood up greeting us while crying and I just asked her if she was okay and the the next thing I know, she threw herself on me. Her grip was so tight, Eun woo and Yugyeom had to pull her off me. And that was when I bolted straight home," he finished.

"Damn. I'm so sorry" Jin said, feeling sympathetic towards the maknae. Jungkook had been put in the situation.

"Me too, I... it's just she's like a sister to me, just like how I treat you as my brother so I got too protective I guess." Yoongi spoke.

"That's fine hyung, I love that you guys are looking out for her but what about Chaeyoung? She'll hate me, won't she?" Jungkook voiced out his concern. "She's going to leave me, what do I do hyung? I don't want to lose her," he almost cried, gripping Namjoon's hands as he spoke. If he was this disheartened by the issue, he could only imagine how hurt she would feel.

"Chaeyoungie is a rational woman Jungkook-ah, talk to her." Namjoon suggested, holding Jungkook's hands within his, and that was all it took for Jungkook to messily wear his shoes and run off towards his car, driving to Rosé's studio. He needed to make it right. He had jeopardised their relationship and he had to fix it. He could only hope that she was willing to listen to him.
