SCARS IN US

42. Cute

I poured another drink and gulped it down my throat though it burnt but not more than my heart. I was dead inside and the room was less messier than my brain.

Taehyung was shocked on seeing me getting angry. I was so furious after knowing that she was indeed my Y/N but why was she ignoring him and behaving like a stranger? Moreover, she was hugging him which made me jealous. I felt betrayed.

A knock was unheard when I looked blankly at nowhere while my mind played flashbacks of our sweet and sour past. As I was lost in my fantasy a warm hand wrapped mine and snatched the glass away, breaking my imagination. "Let's go back. We have been staying here since last week." I shook my head. He sighed. "They wants to meet you." Jimin sat across me with the same intensity of rage but he wasn't showing it since one had to stay sane for making right decision. Uninterestingly, I asked," Who?"

"Yoongi and Taehyung. They are standing outside and I'm calling them in. You deserve to know what they told me."

"I don't freaking want an explanation." I raised my voice. He said," At least listen to them for once. I am sure you will understand." He called them in without my permission. Those two entered with guilt written on their face. I snickered a scoff and rudely asked," What do you want now? Is there anything left for you both? Aren't you satisfied with what you did to me?" It came out drastically loud but the pain I was tolerating was much more.

With a sigh Yoongi came closer and said, "Y/N lost her memories" I immediately darted my stern gaze on his face which was showering sympathy over me. I was drinking but not drunk though my anger was going a level up.

Taehyung said," Except Jimin and you, everyone knew about it and we decided to not inform because you would have tried to make her remember her past. Right now, any pressure on her brain would endanger her life. She can't force herself so we decided let her live in present instead of digging in past."

"If she remembers everything we would be no one to stop her but for the sake of her life we did what we were told by doctors... which was supposedly best for her."

"Best for whom? Again this crap! How many times do I have to suffer? Everytime you take her away from me and now too. What have I done? Don't I deserve someone to love me? Why me!" I roared.

With a sigh Yoongi said,"It wasn't intentional. We decided to keep it hidden unless Y/N became healthy. Taehyung took her responsibility when she went ten years back in her memories. We apologize for that but try to understand. If you were in our place, you would have done anything to save her life, wouldn't you?"

I would have sacrificed everything to see her smiling. I would have given life or taken one. I loved her a lot and it pricks how emotionally distant she was yet physically close.

"You can meet her." Jimin spoke. "It's the least we can do."

"We didn't knew if your face would force her brain. However, when you met she didn't show any signs of discomfort that means you can securely meet her without any obstacle," said Yoongi

"How am I supposed to encounter her when she doesn't see me as I see her? I want to hold her yet it feels like a faint dream to achieve." After saying that I stood going to the window from where I looked out at nowhere specifically.

"Even if is faint, it is still there. Like a patient with faint pulse you still have a chance to relive. Come on, kookie!" I bitterly chuckled how positive and encouraging Jimin was to me. Times like this he really seemed like a perfect hyung.

"Fine. I won't remind her anything but.." I turned back and said," Introduce us again. I don't wanna admire her from afar like a stalker. I am a lover and brave enough to claim her. If not past, I'll try again to win her in present. Future is still in my hands."

"Well then we'll go meet her tomorrow. Also, try to again think about her condition. She is helpless and so are we. I hope you understand."

Yoongi said before bidding farewell. On the other hand, Taehyung was in his own world with his trademark poker face. He neither seemed satisfied with the idea nor disliked. He was in a phase of his extreme thoughts where he was constantly thinking about something that went off noticed by me, then he went away too.

Jimin held my shoulder and asked what was going on in my brain but as person who was left with a hollow cavity I simply reassured him that whatever's gonna happen would be in favour for everyone.

The next day I was in a special lounge with others. Yoongi had gone to call her sister while I glanced at Taehyung who was certainly thinking about something deep in his mind.

"You're not gonna be an obstacles for me, are you?" I asked with a raised eyebrow. Taehyung sighed and said," I will respect her decision. You don't have to worry about competition, I'm already on the bleachers."

"Good." I remarked before the door swung and Yoongi came inside with the only girl I desired. "He's Jeon Jungkook and Park Jimin. My friend from Seoul." They walked towards me. She bowed at us and I did the same. We shook hands then she introduced herself. "I'm Min Y/N. Nice to meet you." She pulled her hand and said,"Sorry for throwing you out of the company. I thought you were a perve- I mean my first instinct was to have security for myself."

"I understand. So we good now?" I exclaimed. She genuinely smiled taking my breath away. She nodded. Jimin nudged me out of my daydream and I remembered about the flower I bought for her.

"These are for you." I handed her the water lilies, her favorite. An immediate smile crept on her lips. "Oh my god, they are my favorite. I am damn sure, oppa told you." I shook my head. "Then Taehyungie!" I again shook my head.

"He bought it himself," said Jimin." He also booked a table in restaurant for lunch so we better hurry."

She was amazed amd looked at me with thankful eyes but I was searching for live which were there for me. She nodded and hooked her arms with Taehyung who was equally dazed as me.

What was I even expecting? She lost her memories so how could she even remember the promises we made. Jimin patted my shoulder and asked to walk with them.

When we sat around the round table our fate was so entangled that she was sitting between me and Taehyung. I didn't said anything but enjoyed sitting next to her, that long lost fragrance I yearned for and the mere presence which enlightened my day except the way she cared for her boyfriend more then me. The more she fed him with her fork the more annoyed I got.

"I'm full." Taehyung noticed how tightly I was clenching around the fork and eyes still on her who wasn't aware of my jealousy but he was. "One more piece baby, you're becoming more and more lean these days."

"No." He's phone rang and he excused himself. She pouted and ate her own veggies.

She took steak and was trying to cut it into pieces in which she was awful. She was cute though. She was surprised when I took her plate and cut it into small cubes. Yoongi and Jimin were bewildered glancing at me then each other from the step I took because for her she was engaged with Taehyung and would not cheat on him but still I was unbothered and wanted to do something for her.

"Thank you, Mr. Jeon." She thanked me. "Call me Jungkook." I said. She tilted her head and eventually agreed. And like that we talked about things we had comman. Well, I already knew about her likes and dislike. When she disappeared, all her likes became mine and her dislikes too. Thus, that phase made me have a similar taste as her.

"I really enjoy your company." She said between her little giggles. "You should meet him often. It's better to have an collaboration." Jimin suggested with clasped hand.

Taehyung also came back and sat on his chair. "What you guys were talking about?" He asked. Y/N said," It's a brilliant idea. Our product would reach the sky if we collab. Don't you think Jungkook?" She exclaimed with excitement.

That moment I wanted to pull her into a hug and peck her temple. However, I nodded and said," I can do any funding for you. I mean your company." My ears turned red from blush so I scratched then a little. She looked at me being shy and said," Cute."

Perhaps this time we still had a chance to fall in love, again.
