Author's POV On the Balcony

"We ruined your night, didn't we?" Taehyung asked, offering Jungkook a cigarette.

"It's not like that."

Jungkook took it and lit it.

"It's been weeks since I've been trying..."

He stopped himself before finishing the sentence.

Taehyung noticed.

"So..."

"She's not your girlfriend?"

Jungkook let out a quiet laugh.

"No."

"You know me."

"I don't do girlfriends."

Taehyung nodded.

"I know the rest."

After a moment, he spoke again.

"She seems... nice."

"Innocent."

Jungkook smirked.

"What?"

"Planning to steal the good ones for yourself already?"

Taehyung rolled his eyes.

"You're unbelievable."

He turned to leave.

"I'm serious, Jungkook."

"We should talk."

Jungkook exhaled a cloud of smoke.

"We barely do."

Taehyung looked at him for a second before walking back inside.

Meanwhile...

Y/N sat quietly on the couch.

Mr. Jeon took the empty seat beside her.

"He doesn't really like celebrating birthdays like this," he said with a small smile.

"But I wanted him to spend one evening surrounded by people."

Y/N smiled softly.

"I actually like parties like these."

"Small ones."

"Where only the people close to you are there."

"Appa and I usually spend my birthday together."

"We go somewhere, eat, and come home."

Mr. Jeon smiled.

"And your friends?"

She looked down.

"Appa never really wanted me to make many friends."

There was a brief silence.

"And your Eomma?"

Y/N's smile faded.

"She passed away when I was eight."

Mr. Jeon's expression softened.

"I'm sorry."

"I know how that kind of loss feels."

"Jungkook's mother and I separated ten years ago."

"I lost my wife..."

"And I lost my son too."

"He was never quite the same after that."
