Once Upon A Time In Paris

Who are you?

Jisoo keeps fidgeting with her ribbon, her dress, her makeup the entire way while Taehyung quietly drives

"I think I should just take it off" she says to herself and as she is about to remove the ribbon, Taehyung holds her hand and looks at her

"I said, it's alright. Stop with all this nonsense, it doesn't matter if they like you or not" he says and looks forward to focus on driving instead

After a while, Jisoo slowly says "Ummm, my hand"

He suddenly realizes that he was holding her hand the entire time and the moment he notices it, he lets go of it abrubtly

"Sorry, I didn't-" he doesn't complete his sentence. Not only Jisoo but also Taehyung is feeling nervous for some unknown reason, he has never introduced a girl like this to his family especially to his dad. He has always been the ideal son and is scared to disappoint his father, this is another reason why Irene feels like home to him, his parents have already agreed on their relationship so there is no chance of him disappointing them

But Jisoo, she feels far from home. This nervousness is killing him, the news has already made them upset. He felt a bit better when he was holding Jisoo's hands, it calmed his mind but the moment he lets go of it, the storm inside of his mind comes back.

He stops the car in front of a huge mansion and gets out and opens Jisoo's door. She comes out and looks at the house

"No wonder you live in that" she says

Taehyung doesn't reply instead starts walking

"Wait" Jisoo runs to him and whispers

"Hold my hand, we are about to get married, remember?" she adds and holds Taehyung's hands tightly

"Just stay quiet and let me manage the situation. Don't speak unless you're forced to" he replies and finally walks inside with her

Jisoo at first sees a huge space with a firepit that's burning but no one is there to warm themselves up. There are huge mirrors on the wall, some plants and a large chandelier. She is impressed with the interior but then again, this is the house of the woman who betrayed her mother, so all these decors and furnitures don't mean anything to her

They walk past the stairs to a living area where everyone is gathered. As soon as Jisoo walks inside, she feels all eyes on her

At first she sees Taehyung's parents, Mr. & Mrs. Kim sitting on the couch accompanied by---- by her father and his wife.

What are they doing here? Sitting on a separate couch beside them is her half sister, Irene. On the couch opposite of them is Lisa who was going through her phone, looking at the tabloids but now looking at Jisoo not even bothering to put her phone down. Jisoo can clearly see her picture on her phone, she must've been stalking her. Beside her is Jungkook's parents

Behind them, infront of the giant bookshelf is Jungkook who was keeping himself occupied with the books but as soon as the guests enter, they grab his attention.

All these eyes focus on Jisoo studying her so minutely, her way of walking, her smile, her movements. Jisoo tries not to look at Jungkook because it'll make her sad and break all the confidence thatshe built up till now.

"Oh, they are here" says Mrs Kim and stands up and walks towards them

"Welcome dear" she says and hugs Jisoo

Jisoo gets shivers when the woman puts her hand on her shoulders, the very woman who her mother used to consider a friend once upon a time

"I wish Taehyung had introduced you earlier to us" she says and looks at her
