Jen's heart thrummed with a mix of resentment and frustration, Jimin's rejection still reverberating within her. She couldn't shake the belief that his heart still held a place for her, that his gazes held a truth he refused to voice.

Seeking solace in the company of a friend, Jen found herself confiding in Soyen, another member of the upcoming girl's band. Their whispered conversation carried an air of secrecy.

"He has to still care about me," Jen's voice held a longing, "I've seen the way he looks at me every time when we accidentally meet."

Soyen leaned in, her voice carrying a conspiratorial tone. "You know, Jen, actions speak louder than words. Maybe he's just not ready to admit it or may be he found a new girl?"

Jen's determination solidified, a fire that burned brighter inside her. "I need to know for sure. I need to understand what he's feeling."

Soyen's eyes gleamed with mischief, a hint of a plan forming. "What if we find a way to get some insider information? Someone who's close to him, someone who can give us a glimpse into his thoughts."

A mischievous smile curved Jen's lips as an idea took root. "You mean someone who's with him all the time? Some staff?"

"Exactly. It can be a bodyguard, because they work on a contract not with Hybe, so they are easy to talk to. Let's find a way to uncover the truth, Jen."

Determined to execute their plan, Jen approached Soo Hyen, one of the bodyguards responsible for protecting BTS, who was on his break in cafe on the first floor. 

Her flirtatious demeanor was a mask for the desperation that pulsed beneath, a desperation to uncover the truth behind Jimin's incomprehensible behavior.

With practiced charm, Jen leaned in closer to Soo Hyen, her voice laced with an alluring tone. "Hey there, handsome. You know, I've been noticing how you handle yourself around here."

Soo Hyen's lips curved into a smug smile, his gaze locking onto hers. "Oh, have you now?"

Jen's fingers lightly touched his arm, her eyes holding a spark of intrigue. "I was wondering if you could do me a little favor. I need some information."

Soo Hyen's expression shifted, his interest rised. "Information, huh? What's in it for me?"

Jen's laughter was a sultry melody, a promise hidden within her words. "How about a little compensation?"

Soo Hyen's grin widened, his eyes gleaming with the allure of intrigue. "You've got my attention."

Jen leaned in, her voice a whisper that carried secrets. "I want you to keep an eye on Jimin. Tell me everything you hear, every conversation, every whisper."

Soo Hyen's gaze held a calculating edge as he considered her proposition. "And what do I get in return?"

Jen's fingers traced a pattern on the table, her voice a siren's call. "Money, of course. Consider it a reward for your cooperation." Jen held out an envelope with 2000 dollars. "This is the first part, and I will give you x2 when I'll get some information."

Soo Hyen's laughter mingled with hers, a blend of shared complicity. "You've got yourself a deal."

As the arrangement was sealed with a promise, Jen was full of anticipation and uncertainty. Money is easy for her because she has rich parents, so she will get as much information as she needs. She had taken a step toward uncovering the truth behind Jimin's enigmatic demeanor, a truth she was determined to grasp.
