Taehyung sat alone at the dimly lit bar, a glass of whiskey in front of him. He'd come here to drown his sorrows, to escape the harsh reality of his unrequited feelings for Jungkook. The weight of their complicated relationship and the unresolved tension had become too much to bear.

He downed the whiskey in one gulp, relishing the burn that temporarily numbed the ache in his heart. The bar's ambiance provided a refuge from the world, offering a brief respite from the emotional turmoil that had been consuming him.

As the alcohol coursed through his veins, Taehyung's thoughts drifted back to Jungkook's words in his office. The memory was like a relentless, tormenting echo in his mind, making him feel like he  was about to fall into an abyss of heartache and longing.

Each sip of whiskey offered a temporary reprieve from the pain, but it couldn't erase the turmoil inside him. Taehyung knew he couldn't run from his feelings forever, and the truth remained that he was trapped in a complex web of desire, denial, and heartbreak.

"who is she?" the bartender asked, his tone gentle, as he wiped the bar clean with a cloth.

"It's a he" Taehyung let out a bitter chuckle, his lips curving into a half-smile.

"I got a job once, as a bartender! he gave me a lot of hell about it but you know what ?"

The bartender leaned in, his voice low and comforting. 

"you miss him huh?"

Taehyung hesitated for a moment, then sighed, deciding to open up to the stranger behind the bar. 

"It's... complicated."

The bartender nodded understandingly, his eyes showing empathy. 

"Love has a funny way of making things complicated, doesn't it? Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is to confront your feelings, even if it feels like you're standing on the edge of a cliff."

"Yeah," Taehyung said softly, his gaze fixed on the glass in his hands. 

"But he hates me now so it's over"

The bartender placed a hand on Taehyung's shoulder, offering a reassuring squeeze. 

"If he loved you once, he'll love you forever"

Taehyung looked up, meeting the bartender's wise eyes, a glimmer of hope flickering in his own. The bartender's words resonated within him, planting a seed of courage in his heart.

"Thank you," Taehyung said, his voice filled with gratitude.

The bartender smiled warmly and returned to his duties, leaving Taehyung to contemplate his words, his thoughts now tinged with a newfound sense of determination.

With the bartender's words echoing in his mind, Taehyung made a bold decision. He finished his drink, paid the bartender, and left the bar with newfound determination. The cool night air hit him as he stepped out onto the street, his steps purposeful as he hailed a cab to take him to Jungkook's penthouse.

During the ride, Taehyung's mind raced with thoughts and emotions, but the bartender's words lingered, urging him to face the truth, no matter how painful it might be. As the cab approached Jungkook's luxurious residence, Taehyung took a deep breath, steeling himself for the conversation that lay ahead.

"If he loved you once, he'll love you forever" repeating these words to himself, Taehyung let out a deep sigh and waited for the elevator to reach Jungkook's place.
