Mr. Evil | Taejin

7.

Seokjin lies on his bed, staring at the ceiling of his room, trying to remember what happened that night three days ago. He couldn't help but think about what Namjoon had said. He lives alone. Who was that person?

"It's frustrating!!!" Jin screamed, sitting on his bed and throwing the pillow he's holding.

Thinking too much about that night really frustrates him but he couldn't remember anything. Aside from mistook that person to be his ex boyfriend.

"I called him Yoongi," he whispered, biting his nails.

"I called him Yoongi... I fucking called him Yoongi!!!" he screamed once again and this time, throwing himself on his bed.

"What the fuck did I do?! Why did I do that?! That's so embarrassing!!!" he then buried his face in his pillow and screamed.

His muffled screams caught Tannie's attention-although he had been hearing Jin's scream earlier. The dog tilted his head to the right, confused by Jin's behavior.

"What's up with him? Did something happen at his workplace?"

After a while, Jin finally calms down. He took a deep breath and blew his frustrations out. Tannie jumped on Jin's bed as gestured by him. The dog sat next to him as if comforting him to whatever made him so frustrated.

"I'm sorry. Did I disturb you?" he chuckles. "I'm just curious and frustrated for some reason."

Tannie just looks at him for a moment then looks down before letting out a sigh. However, while trying to guess what made Jin act that way, he heard him sobbing.

"Sometimes understanding humans is so complicated. He just screamed because of frustration, he even threw the pillow and now he's crying?! Seriously!" he told himself before putting his paws on Jin's lap, still comforting him because that's all he can do.

Jin noticed the dog and patted its head. "I'm sorry you had to see me like this. It's just that... I don't know what to do for now. You know, I'm still hurt but what can I do?" he buries his face in his hand.

"Argh! What am I doing? You're losing your head, Kim Seokjin. He's a dog, he probably can't understand you!" he sighed, slapping his face.

"I better go to work 'cause I'm late yesterday! Gosh, what's wrong with me lately?"

Tannie gives Jin a confused look for the last time before the younger stands up and gets ready to go to work.

Jin stopped at a nearby convenience store to grab some caffeine to drink for energy. He lifts his hand to grab the coffee from the shelf but doesn't grab it. His mind was still confused that he can't even focus on the simplest thing.

"Uhm... excuse me? Are you getting that coffee or not?" someone said, bringing Jin back to his senses.

Jin looked up at the man who had just spoken and realized that his hand had been raised earlier.

"Ah, yes. Sorry." ashamed, he quickly turned his back from the man, but the man could clearly see that Jin's ears were red.

The man smiled and whispered, "Cute."

"I'll leave now. I'm sorry again." Jin said without looking at the man.

The man's eyes followed Jin as he walked through the cashier then outside the store until the latter was out of his sight.

"He's always spacing out even the day that I first met him," he murmured.

Jin stopped walking at the bus stop and took a deep breath, composing himself.
