"The meeting went unexpectedly smooth, even with you here," Jisoo said.
He squeezed her hand a bit and added, "My thoughts exactly. But the competitions won't be as smooth."
She dug her nails into his hand, too bad she had cut them recently. "Took t...

Jisoo pov
I almost choked on air when I read his text. What was it anyway? "Hey, it's Taehyung. I just wanted to check if you're feeling better."
There's no way in hell I was going to believe that Taehyung, of all people, would send such sweet, nice, and honeyed words. No freaking way!
I almost texted my girls, but then I remembered Jennie, and I didn't want to bring up anything that might remind her of him. Instead, I sat there, debating whether to reply or just ignore it. Just as I opened my keyboard to type something back, the message vanished—he unsent it. For a few seconds, I watched the three dots bobbing on my screen, anticipating what would come next.
Then, a new message appeared: "Sorry, it was Jimin."
The audacity of this man!
"Oh, so you're not sorry for hitting me," I shot back, my fingers flying across the keyboard in a burst of anger.
"It was an accident!"
"There's something called a conscience, but I guess you sold it at a garage sale," I typed furiously.
"Why are you getting so agitated?!" he replied, the words popping up before I could even finish my tirade.
I paused, ready to unleash a paragraph on why I was so quote agitated, but his next message stopped me in my tracks.
"It was not intentional. I genuinely didn't want to hurt you. I wanted to apologize there, but you just ran off after throwing a ball at me and calling me a 'Jerk'."
I stared at the screen, my anger wavering.
"You deserved it," I texted back
"Let's not have this conversation right now. I am trying to apologize here, not argue."
"Debatable 🤷♀️. I see no apology text," I replied, smirking.
"I am getting there!! If you let me talk!"
I couldn't help but giggle.
"Don't screenshot it."
I laughed out loud. How did he know I was considering it?
"Okay then, save me the effort and give me a written apology."
"Don't push your luck. This apology is all you get."
"Unacceptable. I could have had brain damage—possible concussion, skull damage, and so on. You're a nerd, so you should know the possible outcomes." I tried guilt-trapping him.
"Okay, now you're stretching it."
"Written apology or nothing."
I turned off my phone as it buzzed with his incoming messages. Honestly, I would've accepted his apology in the text, but the idea of making him sweat a little with the demand for a written apology was too good to pass up. I knew there was no way he'd actually write one, but the thought of annoying him was worth it. Now I know I'll have a good night's sleep.
