Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost. ― Khalil Gibran

"When's the last time you've seen her?"

Jimin's voice echoed in the corridor as the other six men followed him.

"Before the tour, definitely," Hoseok answered with a grin.

"Right?" Jimin asked, glancing at the others for confirmation.

"She didn't even wait for us to have a bachelorette party," Jin whined.

"Of course she couldn't, she couldn't wait until the eve of the wedding," Taehyung scoffed.

"Why not?" Jungkook pouted with a raised eyebrow. They all stopped in front of the apartment door. "It's what they do in the Hollywood movies, right?"

"She can't attend her wedding with dark circles and a hangover," Yoongi scoffed at their silliness. "That's a Hollywood invention."

"But she could have waited for us," Jungkook pouted.

"And deal with BTS at her party?" Hoseok shook his head with a smile.

"Yeah, this is way better, guys," Namjoon finally intervened. Jimin rang the doorbell. "This way we have a nice drink with her before the big party, and it will be just us remembering old times."

"That's right," Hoseok agreed with a warm smile.

Jimin turned with a grin, "Maybe this is the time she'll tell us all about the cream incident—"

"Uhhhh, won't you look at the time—" Yoongi suddenly stammered, turning around with the intention to walk away.

Jungkook and Jin grabbed him, blocking him while everyone smirked. They teased him about it, but it was short-lived. The door opened and they all turned to greet the woman they wanted to meet.

"There's our bride!"

"Our Hyejin is glowing!"

"Wow, you look so beautiful!"

"So pure and fresh!"

She giggled with a wide grin, pulling her long dark hair behind her shoulders. "I spent the day at the spa," she boasted, stepping away for them to come in.

They complimented her complexion and radiance for a hot moment before she shooed them over to the living room.

"Wait there, I'll be with you in a second."

Namjoon was the last one in, and he stood around while the guys sat on the sofa and chairs in the dining room. Their chat was nice until they noticed Hyejin was taking way too long.

"I'll go check on her," Namjoon offered. He was already standing anyway.

"Bring alcohol," Jimin asked playfully, making the others laugh.

Namjoon grinned and shook his head at their goofiness, but before he could enter the kitchen, he froze.

"We should finish our conversation," a female voice said. What shocked him was not that he didn't recognize it, but that it spoke in English.

"No, we should leave it for tomorrow. The friends I grew up with just arrived," Hyejin's tone was soft and hopeful. "I would like you to meet them."

Whoever it was puffed, "I don't speak Korean, you know that."

"Angie—"

"Besides, don't you think you should think about this before getting married?"

Hyejin released a deep impatient breath, "We shouldn't speak of it right now—"
