LOVE ME AGAIN || KTH ✔️

Chapter 17

"If that's what you want then listen", I decided to finally let my heart out in front of him. He narrowed his gaze on me, as I began speaking.

"It was all because-"

"Taehyung", a voice cuts me off, grabbing our attention. My gaze shifted towards the door just to find Emma standing there with a puzzled expression on her face.

Seeing Emma standing there I quickly came back to my senses. I followed her gaze, which was now fixed on Taehyung's hand, which had a hold around my wrist.

I immediately took my hand out of his grip and moved away from him. Not knowing how to react, I just said whatever that came to my mind. "The files...I have placed them on your desk. I will take my leave now", with that I made my way out of her cabin.

[Author's pov]:

Taehyung and Emma watched y/n walk out to the cabin in a haste. Taehyung also decided to go after her as she didn't complete what she was saying.

That was until Emma grabbed his hand, halting him from taking a step further. "Where are you going?", Emma asked. "None of your concern. Now let go", Taehyung replied coldly.

"None of my concern?", A bittersweet chuckle escaped Emma's lips. "Aren't you here to meet me?", she added as she looked up at him with moist eyes.

He stayed silent for a while as he looked at her. "I have to go", he replied as his hand slowly slipped away from her grasp, he unclasped her fingers, their touch fading like a whispered secret in the mind.

With a heavy heart, she stood there, her tear-filled eyes fixed on Taehyung as she watched him turn his back on her and walk out of the room, leaving her heart-broken. Her grip tightened, her nails digging into her palms as she fought back the flood of tears, determined to maintain her composure, silently enduring the pain of watching him slip away.

She glanced down at her hand which was a few minutes ago holding onto Taehyung's. The warmth of their connection turned to a cool emptiness, leaving a lingering ache in her heart.

Meanwhile:

"What was I thinking back there?", y/n face palmed her face as she kept on walking forward. Until, a hand grasped her arm from behind and made her forcefully turn around to face him. There stood Taehyung with a straight yet serious look on his face.

"What did you mean by that?", he asked, cluelessly. "How am I at fault?", he inquired.

Y/n was taken aback by Taehyung's sudden arrival but she managed to stay calm as she replied shortly with, "It was nothing", her gaze now lowered as if she didn't want to talk about it anymore. She felt guilt rushing through her upon seeing Emma back there. She was also reminded of all the past events.

"Y/n, speak", Taehyung demanded.

"I said it was nothing", y/n made herself clear as she tried to set free from his grip and that action of hers was enough to piss him off.

His grip around her shoulder stiffened as he pinned her against the wall nearby making her gasp. "Why do you keep on doing this? What is your problem?!", his voice grew louder, the anger in his tone became palpable, like a thunderstorm brewing in the distance.

Y/n stayed silent for a while before replying to him, "You are", she said. "You are my problem, kim taehyung", she stated, making him go silent at her words.

"Have I ever told you before how much I regret knowing you?", her words pierced through his chest. He was completely taken aback and his eyes grew wider as he looked at her in astonishment.
