Entangled Hearts | VMINKOOK

01.

The morning sun casts a warm glow over the grand entrance of Hyosan High School, heralding the beginning of a new academic year. It stood as a bastion of privilege and ambition, nestled amidst lush greenery and towering buildings. Its sprawling campus exuded an air of sophistication, with manicured lawns and pristine corridors that echoed with the laughter and chatter of its elite student body. Students bustled about, their excitement palpable as they greeted old friends and made new acquaintances.

As the morning sun cast its golden glow upon the campus, students streamed through the gates, their designer uniforms and gleaming accessories a testament to their affluent backgrounds. Among them, Park Jimin stood out like a beacon of charm and allure. With his tousled hair and impeccable fashion sense, Jimin commanded attention wherever he went. His smile was a weapon, capable of melting hearts and turning heads with its effortless charm. Yet beneath the surface of his suave exterior lay a tumultuous world of insecurity and longing.

As Jimin sauntered through the bustling corridors, his eyes sparkled with mischief, darting from one admirer to the next. He was a master of the art of flirtation, effortlessly weaving his way through conversations and leaving a trail of infatuated admirers in his wake.

"Hey there, gorgeous," he purred, flashing a dazzling smile at a group of giggling girls who clustered around him like moths to a flame. "You're looking especially lovely today."
The girls giggled and blushed, their eyes shining with adoration as they vied for Jimin's attention. His mere presence was enough to set their hearts aflutter, their infatuation evident in every coy smile and fluttering eyelash.

"Hey, Jimin," Yejin greeted him with a playful grin, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "You're looking quite irresistible today."

Jimin chuckled, his grin widening as he closed the distance between them. "Why, thank you, Yejin," he replied, his voice dripping with charm. "But I must say, you're the one who's truly irresistible."

Yejin laughed, a musical sound that echoed through the hallway like a melody. "Flattery will get you everywhere, Jimin," she teased, stepping closer to him until their bodies were almost touching. Jimin smirked, his gaze locking with hers in a playful challenge. "Is that so?" he murmured, reaching out to gently tuck a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "Well then, why don't we put it to the test?"

With that, he pulled her into his embrace, their bodies almost touching in a heated embrace, a hush fell over the crowd, punctuated only by the soft murmurs of disbelief. The air crackled with electricity as they leaned in closer, their lips hovering tantalizingly close as they savored the sweet anticipation of what was to come.
Wide-eyed and breathless, the students watched in stunned silence as Jimin and Yejin lingered in their intimate embrace, their lips mere inches apart. It was a scene straight out of a romance novel, a moment so charged with tension that it left the onlookers speechless.

But as the spell of silence began to lift, a new figure emerged from the throng, his presence commanding attention with every step. Jeon Jeongguk, with his striking looks and magnetic aura, was the epitome of allure, his mere presence enough to set hearts aflutter.
As Jeongguk made his way through the crowd, his eyes scanned the sea of faces, searching for one in particular. Spotting his target, he approached Mingyu, his best friend, with a furrowed brow.

"Mingyu, have you seen Jimin?" Jeongguk inquired, his voice tinged with frustration.

Mingyu's expression soured as he nodded towards the direction where Jimin and Yejin stood locked in their embrace. "Yeah" as he pointed to the direction where jimin was with his index finger "he's over there," Mingyu replied, his tone dripping with disdain.

Jeongguk's jaw clenched as he took in the sight before him, the bitterness rising in his chest like bile. Without a word, he snatched the carton of milk from Mingyu's hand making him give a confused look to him, and strode purposefully towards Jimin and Yejin.
