Mr. Evil | Taejin

5.

It's Monday and Seokjin has to go to work even though he doesn't want to. Because he thought that crying all day in his room would do nothing to him, so he decided to work his ass off to somehow forget about his asshole ex boyfriend.

"Jin! Kim Seokjin!" Hoseok called out to him but he's spacing out. Hoseok saw the coffee that Jin is pouring in his cup is overflowing so he holds the latter's hand to stop him.

"What's happening to you? Didn't you notice that you're pouring too much coffee to your cup?"

Jin looked down on his cup and saw the mess he made. "Shoot." he whispered and shakes his head. "I-I'm sorry, I'm just tired." he said, grabbing the paper towel to wipe the counter clean.

Hoseok, his best friend, noticed that there was something wrong with Jin. He grabbed Jin's hand to stop him from cleaning the counter. "How long have you been crying, huh?"

Jin only chuckles, "W-What are you saying? I'm not crying." he sniffles.

"Oh, come on, Jin. I know you. I know when you're lying and I know when you've been crying." he crossed his arms and raise his left eyebrow. "So tell me what happened?"

Suddenly, Jin's tears flows from his eyes. He couldn't hide the pain anymore; he couldn't stay strong anymore. The pain is just too much for his heart to handle. He couldn't bear with the pain so he let his friend hug him. This is what he needs right now. A friend who will comfort him; a friend who will cry with him; a friend who will listen to him; and that's Hoseok. His one and only best friend.

"Shh. It's okay to cry. You don't have to tell me now, cry until the pain is gone then tell me. Don't be afraid to say something. You know that I'll always be here to protect you." he said while gently patting Jin's back.

"Hoba... Am I ugly?" Jin asked all of a sudden.

Hoseok pulled out from their embrace to face his friend. "What are you saying? Of course not! You're the prettiest man I've ever seen!" he said, wiping Jin's tears.

"Am I not sexy then?" he cried

"Why are you asking those kind of questions?"

"Hoba... Yoongi cheated on me. H-He got someone—" his tears cut him off from speaking and burst into tears again.

"Oh, no. My Nini," said Hoseok and pull Jin into a warm embrace once again.

"I don't know what I did wrong. I loved him. I gave him everything.  Was that not enough? Am I not enough? Why did he do that with another man? I'm here! He could just ask for it! Why?!" he cried.

All Hoseok can do at the moment is to give his friend a warm hug; cry with him and comfort him. He still did not know what exactly happened but he's got an idea on what Jin was trying to say. To be honest, he did not expect Yoongi to do this thing to Jin. He thought Yoongi is the perfect guy for his lovely best friend, but he thought wrong. He swear if he saw Yoongi, he'll beat his ass off.

Jin finally calmed down. Hoseok got him a chair and a glass of water. "That bastard! I can't believe he did that to you! How can he?! I swear I'm gonna kill that guy once I see him!" Hoseok burst in anger after Jin told him everything.

"I'm trying my best not to think of it, but every time I still can hear his voice. I still can hear what he said to me that night."

Hoseok opens his mouth to speak but got interrupted by one of their co-workers. "Ah, you two. There you are. I've been looking for you guys," Dooshik laughed. "Anyways, Chairman Namjoon is inviting everyone on his birthday party tonight. You guys are coming?"

"Sorry, Dooshik. But Jin and I are-"

"Yes."

Hoseok looked at Jin and frowned. "But-" he whispered. Jin nods his head, assuring his friend that he'll be okay.
