DON'T LET ME GO | PJM

Chapter 95

A/N: Listen to the song I put for this chapter while reading!

Jimin parked his car and took a moment to smoke, relieving the stress that had built up. After finishing his cigarette, he headed home.

Inside, Y/N was with Joon Min, helping him with his writing. However, her mind seemed preoccupied, likely due to the recent events. Whenever Joon Min finished writing a word, he'd glance at her for approval.

Finally, Y/N snapped back to the present, gently stroking Joon Min's hair. "Sorry, Joonie, let's continue..."

As she was about to resume, Jimin entered the living room, causing her to startle. "You're home," she said.

Jimin settled onto the sofa, loosening his tie and undoing a couple of shirt buttons. "I've handled the photos," he informed her.

Y/N recalled the conversation she had with Lisa the other day. She gently set her pen down and then lovingly ran her fingers through Joon Min's hair. Encouraging him to keep writing, she moved closer to Jimin and sat down beside him.

"Lisa mentioned that you used your project to make a deal with Taemin," she inquired, concern etching her face as she looked at Jimin.

Jimin reclined on the sofa, spreading his legs out, his weariness evident. "It's taken care of. The photos are gone now."

"Park Jimin..." Y/N began, her tone filled with a mixture of gratitude and concern.

Jimin's attention shifted to Joon Min, and he interrupted their conversation. "I'm taking Joon Min to Singapore in two days."

Y/N was taken aback by this sudden announcement but managed to nod. "Okay," she replied, her voice tinged with a hint of sadness. Then, she mentioned something that Lisa had told her. "Lisa mentioned that you'll be engaged."

Jimin fixed his gaze on her, his eyes searching her face for a reaction. "Do you care?" he asked pointedly.

Y/N's head dropped slightly, and she nervously bit her lip. She remained silent, unable to provide a straightforward answer.

Jimin's grip tightened on her wrist as he spoke with a mix of frustration and disappointment. "If you have a heart, you can definitely tell that I am waiting for you. Perhaps you never had me inside your heart. No matter how many years I wait for you, it's still the same."

He released her wrist abruptly and ascended the stairs, leaving her stunned and her heart racing. Jimin's disappointment weighed heavily on her, and she was left grappling with her emotions.

The media continued to buzz with news about Lisa's engagement. She had chosen Valentine's Day as the date for the engagement ceremony. Jimin had taken Joon Min and Lisa back to Singapore a couple of days earlier. The paparazzi had captured them in photographs, portraying them as a family of three. Although no one dared to approach them for an interview, these photos still made headlines in the news. They had returned to make preparations for the engagement party.

Krystal had come over to the Song residence after dinner and noticed Shin Ji in the kitchen washing dishes. She inquired, "Auntie, where's Y/N?"

Shin Ji wiped her hands and replied, "She just went upstairs. Please, take her out. Her mood hasn't been the greatest these days."

Krystal nodded in understanding. "Don't worry, Auntie. I'm here to take her out."

She made her way upstairs and gently pushed open the door to Y/N's room. Y/N was seated on her bed, her gaze fixed on something. It was a photo of her, Jimin, and Joon Min when she was pregnant. Y/N seemed lost in her thoughts, not even noticing Krystal's presence until she took the photo.
