Y/N's POV

I walked around and happily observed the people around the exhibit with my hands at my back, letting the people I knew enjoy the experience first before meeting them.

I stopped by an artwork, it was one of the artworks I once entitled it as a  "the failed one".

I saw a delicate hand of a girl holding onto a bruised hand with cuts of a man that seemed to have fought too much, showing few details of his clothing that seemed to be a soldier's uniform.

"If only you would see this too..." I softly said to myself.

"Who?" A man appeared beside me as I startled and faced him.

"Oh!" I paused. "Nothing." I said as I looked back at the painting.

"Is this you and your dad?" He asked, pointing his hand at it.

"Oh... O-oh no. Just a random painting I want to try." I replied. "It's like being thankful for the men who fight for our country, you know?" I nervously chuckled and shrugged.

"Your work." He looked around. "Amazing. Indeed." He said as he gave me a thumbs up.

"Oh, thank you. Hope you enjoyed the experience." I chuckled as I slightly bowed.

"Worth it." He smiled. "You know as an art person myself." He nodded. "This is the first time I see this type of art exhibit." He said as he looked around. "It's interactive, it tells a story, and especially it moves the hearts of the people." He added.

"Oh really? That's so nice of you, thank you so much." I said with a widened smile as I bowed continuously and he bowed as well.

"What's the name of this talented artist?" He asked as he puts his hand in front of me.

"Oh, it's Jung Y/N, yeah Y/N." I replied and smiled as I accepted his hand to handshake with him.

"Kim Taehyung." He said as he smiled back and nodded.

"Oh, you must've met her, Tae." Jimin suddenly appeared on my other side and held my shoulder. I glanced at him while he smiled at him.

"Oh yeah, I decided to meet her and introduce her myself." He said and smirked.

In between the two gorgeous men, I started to feel hot at the tension.

"H-have you two gentlemen tried the macaroons we prepared for you guys?" I asked as I looked up to them, seeing Jimin glared at the confident and unbothered looking Mr. Kim, grinning as he raised an eyebrow at Jimin. "And we-we also prepared drinks for you guys to..." I paused as I saw Jimin took a few steps nearer to Taehyung. "Try..." I added.

"You okay, Park Jimin? You seem to be a little..." Taehyung paused.

"Possessive." He smirked and I pulled Jimin back to me.

"Calm down, don't make a scene in public." I whispered to him and started to drag them to the dessert area.

"Knock yourselves out, people. We can refill these anytime." I announced and the people smiled as they turned to me. I also see Jungkook already munching at the end of the corner of the table, looking around, probably enjoyed the food more rather than the place. I laughed and saw the women that giggled as they passed him by, he didn't even notice them. I shaked my head while grinning.

"Oh, Seulgi. Why are you here?" I overheard a familiar tone and turned around as I saw Jimin talking to a woman that was only showing her back. I went near them to hear bits of their conversation. I blended in with some people and pretended that I'm with their group as I started to eavesdrop to their conversation from behind near me. I didn't know why but I got so curious about it.

"Why not? Am I not allowed to visit exhibits myself?" She asked in a mad tone.

"Bear, keep it down." He cleared his throat. "I-I mean Seulgi." He said in a low voice.

"You still call me that name huh?"

I turned around a bit and peeked at them.

"I'm trying not to anymore, I just got used to it." He shaked his head and frowned a bit as he looked around.

"Well, I'll better get going." She said and before she left, Jimin suddenly noticed me. I quickly turned my back on him and he grabbed my arm, dragging me to them.

Still putting my back on them, he introduced me to her.

"Seulgi, meet Y/N, the one and only artist." He proudly said but my back still faced them.

𓏗-𓏗...

"Hey, Y/N." Jimin poked his elbow to me as I slightly winced and got hurt because of it.

I slowly turned around awkwardly.

(ᵕ—ᴗ—)

"Hi~" I said shyly as I waved at her, nervously chuckled. She wore a full black outfit, a coat, leggings, partnering it with boots, while she let her perfectly straight brown hair down.

She raised her eyebrows.

"Your new girl?" She asked pointing at me as she looked over Jimin.

"Oop." I said as I looked up over to my shoulder and saw Jimin trying to calculate his words.

"W-we're..." He stuttered.

"Friends! Yeah! We're friends, yeaaaah~" I replied awkwardly as I raised and shaked my both hands in the air nervously.

She grabbed and shaked my hand instead.

"Oh, alright. Nice to meet you, love your works." She smiled and bowed slightly.

"Thank you, how did you know about this opening?" I asked as I felt a bit comfortable with her since she looked kind despite their obvious history and how she looked. I shaked her hand as I bowed back as well.

"I just walk passed by yesterday, said that it will open tomorrow and bought myself an entrance ticket." She replied as she put her hands in her pockets.

"Oh, really? Hope you liked it. Please do enjoy." I bowed again. "I'll be leaving you now, enjoy yourselves!" I stepped out of the scene.

"Oh no, I'm actually gonna get going. Ms. Y/N, I really enjoyed the experience, keep it up." She held my hands and bowed. She left as she waves at us and I waved back hesitantly.

As soon as she left, I took a few steps away but he suddenly grabbed my arms firmly that made me go back to him like a magnet.

"Where are you going?" He asked as I heard his words above my head behind me, I sighed and blew my curtain bangs away from my face.

He turned me around to face me.

"Congratulations Y/N, I'm very proud of you." He rubbed my shoulders. "You look amazing, the color and that dress suits you very well." He said as he cheekily grinned, pointing at me. "Also, you smell good." He whispered to my ear and smirked at me.

"As if I let myself smell bad at my new opening, right?" I sarcastically asked with sass.

He chuckled and laid a finger between my brows.

"You should practice not frowning too much, little miss sassy." He said and I swatted his finger away as he laughed.

I twitched my lip and looked around as I found Jungkook who was eating a chocolate bar, busy interacting with an artwork which you can spin it around. If you rotate it upside down, you'll see another perspective of the painting. It seems like he has been mesmerized by it for too long. I chuckled at the view.

A staff tapped on my shoulder and whispered that it's already 8 o' clock and I must give my thank you speech if I'm ready.

Ok, what a bug? 🤨 Kidding, still love Seulgi! I just used her for a visual for you guys to imagine and also a perfect role for the story because of the SeulMin rumors in the past. Not kidding but I was once a shipper of SeulMin. 🤭
