"Im Namjoon! Kim Seokji! Min Mingi! Jang Hoseok! Baek Jimin! Kim Taeyong! Jeon Jongkook! BTS!" Hoseok and Armi chanted together. Both vibing on the music coming out of the speaker.

Namjoon looked at them exasperatedly. Then, he shook his head. "I thought Armi is going to lie low as a fan now that she's pregnant. But it seemed like she became even more passionate." He whispered.

"Hoseok said that he's going to put his foot down and ask Armi to do that when they got married. But look at him, he's become an avid fan too." Seokjin replied.

"BTS is awesome though." Taehyung commented.

"Indeed. Such great artists." Namjoon agreed.

"I guess we can't really blame them for idolizing legends." Seokjin added.

"Hey. Less talking, more working." Yoongi interrupted.

"Ya! We're the only ones working here. We've been striving hard inflating these balloons and making this place pretty. I told you to hire an event planner. But you didn't. Now you're making us work. And what are you doing? You're just zoning out, dazing at your piano. This is your proposal! Work your butt off too!" Seokjin protested.

Yoongi was flabbergasted.

"Settle down. Just let him be. He must be so nervous." Namjoon said.

"We're almost done." Taehyung grabbed Yoongi's shoulders and led him back to the grand piano. "Relax. It's going to be okay. You just sit there and practice."

"Where are they anyway?" Hoseok asked.

"Right. Taehyung, did Jungkook text you where they are now?"

"Still at a jjimjilbang." Taehyung responded.

"Jimin isn't suspicious?"

"About the proposal? No. He's suspicious about something else."

"Suspicious about what?"

"He's been telling us that Yoongi was very strange these past few days. He thought he's already changed his mind and will break up with him any day. I swear we tried so hard not to spill when he cried."

"Why is that? How are you acting?" Hoseok asked Yoongi.

"I'm acting normal." He replied.

"He said that you've been avoiding him and you seem like you were hiding something."

"I am hiding something. This. I can't wait for this happen."

"Then let's finish this so you can make it happen." Seokjin stated.

Jungkook and Jimin left the bathhouse late in the afternoon. They drove to Jamais vu in the guise that they'll be having a dinner with Taehyung. Jimin sighed deeply as he drove, wondering where Yoongi was because he hasn't replied to any of his messages.

"I should just be the one to break it off so it will be easier for him." He muttered sadly.

"If you think that that's the best thing to do, go for it. We'll always be here for you."

"I don't think I can be around him as a friend. I can't do it like Namjoon hyung and Jin hyung." Tears were already forming at the corners of his eyes.

"Don't think about it for now. Let's go. We'll serve all your favorites." Jungkook comforted.

Jimin killed the engine and hopped off. He noticed that the place was unusually quiet. There was no line at the waiting area and the host stand was empty. No jazz music or instrumental can be heard. The usual buzzing atmosphere was missing.
