Relish Heart

Chapter 22;

after everything, here they are with their wide smiles, not until tzuyu had to leave, of course they had their schedules and its not all day they can be free.

"why leave so soon?" jungkook sighed and nodded at the thought of they're idols too, and especially twice and red velvet will be having a collab on red velvets concert, so her appearance in their stage practice is really needed. 

"well i need to go to my apartment to change and freshen up." tzuyu replied calmly and jungkook shook his head, "i can lend you my clothes." 

"w-what?" 

"you can borrow my clothes, or if you want, you can keep them." jungkook took tzuyu's arm and dragged her over to his closet, 

"pick anything you want," 

"are you sure?"

"why not?" 

tzuyu was a bit hesitant but she needed to say what she had in her mind, "well, our fans might.. suspect?"

"they won't,"

---

tzuyu picked his sweatpants and a shirt, which with his muscular body, became an oversized for her, "thank you, i'll make sure to return this."

"or you can keep it." jungkook smiled after tzuyu entered her car, oh how bad he'll miss this girl, "you know i won't do that." tzuyu hid her smile before closing the door, "text me when you get there!" jungkook stated loudly in which tzuyu honked her can in response before driving away, 

how sweet they are, maybe its time? well he did prove himself that he'd be better for her, 'maybe it's time that i answer him.' it's not all day you'll meet another person just as like jungkook, he's one of a kind, and there's not really a reason to play hard to get, when he himself is hard to get! 

tzuyu smiled at the thought of them being an actual couple, what a dream. "tzuyu? are you listening?" nayeon waved her hand towards her face, 'wait when did i get here?'

"oh god! i better text jungkook!" tzuyu said accidentally out loud which made nayeon smirk, "mwo? my maknae's inlove." 

"aniyo!" tzuyu said trying to deny that she's blushing,  not until she reached her bag only to find out her phone's out of battery. 

"and as i was saying." nayeon took tzuyu's phone and kept it in her hand, "have you heard?" tzuyu sighed and looked over nayeon to explain, "what?"

"mina has a secret lover." no fucking way?!, "who is it?" tzuyu curiously questioned nayeon which made nayeon smirk, "i already told you whom, but you weren't listening!" 

"oh please, you need to let me know." tzuyu got both of her hands and shook nayeon, "okay okay! it's ... son chaeyoung." tzuyu massaged her temples before sitting in silent, nayeon chuckled at that. "fine, i'll tell you,"

"it's park jimin."

tzuyu made an 'o' shape of her mouth and turned to mina's direction, yes. they're all here in the practicing room but were separated like groups. even red velvets here! of course. they're practicing.

"all right girls, let's practice again and try to not make any errors." jihyo stood up and the other twice members obeyed their leader. jihyo really is hard working, but that hard-working heart can also turn into a loving- ah how lucky that guy is. 

"rv! let's go." irene calmly said and that made everyone in red velvet stood up immediately, 

everyone got into their position and played the song, the main dancers were really given the spot light here. of course, what's a better intro with their dance presence? seulgi, momo, and mina were dancing smoothly, seulgi was in the middle while momo and mina were on her side,  no one made errors, and they continued. 

the rappers, this'll be a great transition to the dancers as momo plays a big role, dahyun and chaeyoung entered with irene and yeri. 

the theme really suits the two groups really well. royal and elegant, of course, they're queens! after the practice for their raps, all of them entered excluding tzuyu and yeri.

tzuyu and yeri had a special entrance in the chorus, so of course they want to do this right, and here it comes. 1, 2, 3.

pluck

tzuyu tripped, and all of the attention goes to her, "tzu!", "oh no!", "the fuck?", "are you okay?", nayeon immediately rushed over to her and saw the marks forming, tzuyu's skin can really be sensitive.  

while all of them focused on tzuyu, irene dragged yeri out of the practice room.

"unnie! what are you doing?" yeri stopped her sentence and saw her friend turn into her leader. "i saw what happened, why did you do that?" irene questioned her but yeri seemed shocked.

"what do you mean? saw what?" yeri was in-denial and irene wasn't having it. "you tripped tzuyu for her to fall, i don't like this, fix whatever shit happened to you two." 

"be professional, kim yerim."

silence. 

tzuyu ended up taking bandages with her knees, she already needs to bend down her knees to match with everyone, but this just made things harder, 'thanks universe!' 

jeongyeon entered the room with a confused look, what happened? and then irene entered with yeri. 

irene bent down to tzuyu sitting, "you okay?" and tzuyu nodded with that, so pretty, "unnie, you're so pretty." and irene chuckled at that looks like they're going to be close. 

"tzu, i need to talk to you later out." jeongyeon called tzuyu and she nodded, 

regardless of what happened, they all still practiced to perform, everyone was doing great and no one missed a beat, when everything is clean and no errors occurred, everyone called it a day, as tzuyu was packing her stuff she noticed sana coming up to her, "i noticed your phone had no charge, so i charged it for you!" 

"oh! gomawo unnie!" tzuyu gave sana a hug and opened her phone, this time jeongyeon walked towards her, "put down your phone, we need to talk."

tzuyu blinked before closing her phone again, "what is it unnie?"

"i overheard yeri and irene talking awhile ago, and- it wasn't an accident that you tripped, because yeri tripped you." 

---

tzuyu swallowed every word jeongyeon said to her, 'yeri tripped you', why would she do that? how can she do that? they were friends before, and yeri's really kind! 'maybe jeongyeon unnie just overheard it wrong or she misunderstood! yeah, that might be it.' tzuyu erased her thoughts and went to jyp's company.

since the news of her and sehun were still a hot topic, jyp is needed to release a statement. 

when she arrived at the company, many reporters were gathered, probably going to ask about the dating speculations,

tzuyu made her way somehow without notice of the reporters as she entered at the back, she was making her way upon jyp's office, and saw how frustrated he really is, 

"care to explain?"

tzuyu sighed as he shot her with his eyes he was calm, that was the scary part. "sehun and I are not in a relationship, he is not my lover nor anything more than that" tzuyu then explained the situation and to her surprise, jyp believed it, and sent off an announcement, saying exactly what she said and such, 

weird? no.
strange? yes.
