Tear (Love Yourself Tour - Book 2)

Chapter 3

Namjoon's POV:

I ran my hands through my hair grabbing it at the nape of my neck. "Fuck." I muttered to myself. Running my hands back up through my hair and leaned back into the couch my head on the back of it on top of my hands and stared up at the ceiling. I completely messed up. Torrie was right. I should have listened to her. She was Adeline's best friend after all. I thought back to last night and the phone call I made to her after I received her text message. She told me that Adeline had called her and accused her of knowing who I was all along and when she tried to explain Adeline had hung up on her. Torrie said that she had tried to call her back, but she wouldn't pick up. Torrie then went on to ream me out about how I went about telling Adeline who I was among other things. I knew she was right when it came down to it which is why I took everything she threw at me. Before she hung up, she told me that if she managed to get a hold of Adeline, she would let me know. I sighed and pulled my hands out from underneath my head letting them fall to my sides when I felt my phone vibrate. I leaned forward and hastily pulled my phone out of my pocket praying it was Adeline. It wasn't but it was the next best thing, Torrie. I read her text message.

Torrie [01:31 PM]
I managed to get ahold of Adeline a bit ago.

I instantly started typing a response.

Me [01:32 PM]
How is she? Is she okay?

Torrie [01:34 PM]
Is she okay? Uh, no she isn't okay. She is far from it. She is really upset with the both of us because we lied to her. She also feels like you didn't trust her to tell her who you really were.

I stared at the message. How could she think that I didn't trust her? Of course, I trusted her and said so.

Me [01:36 PM]
I trust her. Why would she think that?

Torrie [01:37 PM]
Namjoon how could she not think that. You kept the biggest part of who you are from her. Wouldn't you feel the same if you were in her shoes?

I thought about it for a moment. She was right. If I were Adeline, I would feel that way too. I sighed when another message from Torrie came through.

Torrie [01:38 PM]
Look. I know you don't want to hear this, but you have to give her time. You have to let her calm down and work through her emotions. Not only did she get the shock of seeing the guy she has been practically dating performing with a group she was hired to work with, but she thought there was no hope for a relationship between you two since she was leaving on what turned out to be your tour. Just give her some breathing room and let her come to you to talk. Okay?

I reread her words multiple times each time they had sunk in a little more painfully. Part of me didn't want to listen to her. Part of me just wanted to run out of this room and find Adeline and beg her to listen to me and forgive me. Instead, I was going to do what Torrie said and replied to her and acknowledged her advice.

Me [01:41 PM]
Okay.

With nothing else to say I put my phone back in my pocket. I laid back against the couch once again with my forearms crossed over my face. I wasn't sure how long I sat there lost in all the what if scenarios I was playing through in my head when I felt the couch dip next to me. I pulled my arms down and away from my face locking eyes with Jungkook.

"Is everything okay? You look stressed?" He asked clasping a hand down on my shoulder.

"Have you ever done something that you thought was a good idea at the time, but it turns out it was the worse idea you've had in your entire life?" I asked with a sigh.
