You & I ;; Taejin [✓]

Chapter 9

"It's nice meeting you in person, Mr. Kim Taehyung."

"Likewise, Mr. Choi." Taehyung replied politely as he did the handshake with the latter.

"So, about our project...would you like to discuss it now?"

"Of course why not? Why doing delay in starting such a good project like this?"

"But, Mr. Kim Seokjin, your husband isn't here. He's the CEO of KSJ enterprises. We were supposed to do this project together. That was the deal."

"Oh right right. Hang on I'll call him-"

"Mr. Kim...it's alright tho. It will be late, so how about we two do the meeting here right now. My nephew is the shareholder in my company, so is it okay to let Mr. Seokjin do a meeting with him?"

"Sure. That sounds fine with me. Still I'll let him know." Saying this, Taehyung excused himself and went outside to call Jin but his phone was switched off.

"Damnit!! Why is his phone switched off?! Anyways, I'll text him. That's better." Taehyung thought.

"Guess it's gonna rain..." Jin thinks while looking up at the sky. Currently, he's at Jimin's house.

"Jin hyung, you asked for a charger for your phone–oh are you okay? You seems to be zoning out a lot..."

"Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks Jimin. I guess it's gonna rain. I'm worried for Taehyung. He seems to be overworking a lot these days. Today, he didn't even take his car. How the hell will he arrive home if he didn't get a cab. It might start raining soon. If something happens to him then what I'm gonna do." Jin kept rambling while Jimin kept looking at him with a smile.

"Gosh hyung. You look cute while rambling yk. Don't worry, he will be fine. You are way too much worried for him. Are you sure you aren't in love with him? Well, I can see the love you have for him in your eyes."

"Say what?" Jin said in surprise.

"Yes hyung, you are in love with him. Just accept this fact. The way you're worrying about him proves everything. Also, pls don't say the same thing as 'bestfriends don't fall in love with each other.' That's bullshit. And whenever we all try to make you understand that it's not true always, you make excuses to avoid your true feelings. Now look at me and Jungkook. We fell in love too...despite being bestfriends. You can't control your heart from falling in love hyung. And it won't change the fact that you two are friends. Taehyung, well he's the same too. At first he was too stubborn to understand whatever we are saying. But atleast now, he understands a lot more than you, even though you're the elder one here."

Jin kept quiet, trying to comprehend Jimin's words. He plopped down on the bed. Maybe Jimin's right. No it's not maybe, Jimin's definitely right.

"Hyung, are you getting my point?"

"You are right. Yes, I'm finally accepting the fact that I love Tae, romantically. But what about him? He probably doesn't feels the same."

"What? Who told you that? Don't jump into conclusions like that. I can see the love whenever he talks about you hyung.

"Well, Jimin...you know that he's always flirty. Even before we got married, he used to flirt with me and then he used to say 'no homo bro'.

"Ugh hyung, that's bcz you two weren't lovers. Plus Jungkook and I used to say that to each other too. Bestfriends joke around with each other."

"Why do you keep talking about you and Jungkook?"

"Cuz, Kook and Tae are alike. They are literally inseperable...in a kind of brother way of course. Remember, When Namjoon hyung used to say, Taehyung and Jungkook are the same person just with different names. These two are like the total crackheads. Not to mention, they are partners in crime. They used to prank us a lot and got punishments too after getting caught. Together. Basically, what I mean to say is they both are very much flirty. Flirtiest among everyone in our group. Remember how they used to flirt with every person in our school. I'm sure they still do it yet they have the heart eyes for the ones they love. Trust me, today I saw this in Taehyung."

"Wait what? Saw this in Taehyung? Did you meet him today?"

"Shit! It was a slip of tongue. I can't let hyung know that I talked to Taehyung about the divorce matter."

"No I mean... nevermind. Just go home and sort it out. It's better to drop the divorce matter too. And I'm no position to say that Taehyung loves you or not. You better ask him."

"Yeah. I understand...thanks Jimin."

"Good. You didn't bring your car...are you gonna take a cab?"

"Yeah. I'd better go before it starts raining."

"Okay get home safely, hyung. Bye."

"Yeah." Saying this, Jin left.

"I hope everything works out well for them." Jimin sighed.

~~~~

"Yeah, yeah I get it. I'll be there till morning. Yes yes. I'm hanging up."

"I'm home...Taehyung." Jin says as he saw Taehyung's shoes, meaning he's back home. But he didn't get an answer.

"Taehyung, you are late. Were you at your office all this time-wait why are you packing your luggage? Where are you going?"

"Jin, pls shut your mouth for sometime. I'm already frustrated. I've to go to San Francisco for a business meeting.

"What? Right now?"

"Yes, Jin. It was sudden meeting. My flight is in few hours. I had a meeting with Mr. Choi today. He said he will let his nephew have meeting with you. Also he wanted to meet you too. So he asked for an appointment. I wanted to let you know all this by calling you but your phone was switched off."

"I see. Have a safe flight then. I'll wait for you, Tae." Jin said timidly.

"You don't have to do that Jin. After all we will be divorcing soon. You should be happy that I'm doing you a favour. That's it. Now I'm leaving."

"Divorce? Did Jimin tell him everything?!"

"No, Tae. Wait... it's not like that you think it is. It's a misunderstanding. I wanna talk to you about it–" Before Jin could say anything more, he realised Taehyung already left. Jin broke down in tears remembering Taehyung's words and his emotionless face while talking.

"What have I done? Come home soon Tae...I wanna make the things right."
