Nov'31

In our 3 months of dating, I caught eun woo trying to get Winston blu's confidential details for the nth time.

I ignore it and just put the files away for a while.

Right now he sat beside me, apologising for I don't know how long. However mid apologies he started leaning towards me and I stopped him.

My blood pressure went down I'm not sure how much. I felt dizzy. He tsked and rolled his eyes.

"We have been dating for 3 months now? What is wrong with you?" He asks and I sighed stepping back.

"I'm sorry" I said and went to the washroom. Intimacy is a problem for me. I didn't know about it for a while because I didn't try dating anyone but it's a weird mixture of how I got beaten the last time I got intimate and me having an obsessive one sided love for a guy who doesn't care, that I can't get close to the opposite gender in terms of intimacy.

I washed my face and saw eun woo enter. "It's okay, I forgive you. We'll take it slow" he says and I hugged him.

Sept'33
Jimin

I sat in my room, Sarang was tired from the athlete meet, she won a medal which was still around her neck.

I was worried about Taeri, the way she reacted to eun woo didn't sit well. She once said she has dated a fair share of guys too.

Was he one of them.

That's when the bell rang and I went to get the door.

"Hello baby boy" jungkook said as he pushed his way in with a take out. He then went to the balcony and waved out, I followed and saw ven.

She dropped him here.

He waved at her and she drove away.

"Why are you here?" I ask.

"Spending some boy time" he said and I pulled the most disgusted face and he latched onto me like the leech he is.

He then swung inside and lodged himself on the couch.

I was annoyed at him but suddenly was reminded of something. He is very close to Taeri infact they were in the US together.

He must know something, I walked in and formulated what I wanted to say.

I was hesitant, very much.

"Speak jimin, you do that everytime you want to say something" he said and I looked at him.

"Do what?"

"This, the fiddling and everything" he said and I stopped.

"I know that because I know you, now sit down and speak" he said and unpacked the package he brought with beer cans and fried chicken.

I took a deep breath and sat down.

"Do you know anyone named cha eun woo?" I ask and the chicken from his hand fell.

"How do you know him?" He asks.

"Taeri gave the same reaction" I mentioned and his eyes went wide.

"He came to Taeri!?"

I nodded. "He is Kim industries' counsel, the representative advocate for nari. He came to serve a letter to Taeri, I don't know much but I'm pretty sure he broke a law by contacting a client instead of their lawyer" I said and jungkook sighed.

"Technically he didn't. He contacted his ex not the other party. You are the other party and Taeri? Well she is the ex. She has no relationship to you except maybe friends? She is not the opposing party. Did he speak to you?"

"No"

"Exactly" he opened the beer can and chugged it before he looked at me.

"I'm only going to tell you this because I want you to know Taeri in dept. You don't know half her life" he said and I simply looked at him.

"Taeri broke up with him because of me" I said and jungkook laughed.

"Somewhat" he said and looked at me.

"Taeri was incapable of any physical or intimate touch relationship with anyone, all she ever thought was as if she was cheating on you" he said and blood rushed through me.

"She loves me that much?"

Jungkook laughed.

"It's funny you never realised the dept of her emotions. She was diagnosed with multiple disorders, depression, anxiety, ptsd and what not. It took years of therapy for her to simply be able to sleep and when she was able to sleep, nightmares and sleep paralysis accompanied. All of these and weirdly a single man could make her forget everything. You were everything to her and still are. I don't have words to describe this situation but Taeri was always a little away from her hell when she was around you" he said.

"Her mom, late Bae Jae yi was abusive." He said and I took deep breaths.
