chapter 11

Jisoo sat beside him in a park. it was afternoon so it was really busy place. but she could hear his fast heartbeat, she slowly grips his hand tighter. as she squeeze his hand he looks at her with those depressed eyes, "let it out, im listening" he blinks and a tear drops from his eyes.

"was I a burden? why was I given away?" he questions and Jisoo knew nothing to answer this.

"maybe some complications?" she tries to defend the woman she never had met. "do you think I'm a child, who you are giving false consolidation?" he asks looking at her. she falls quiet.

"Jisoo, I need to find her, I need to face her and ask her why did she left me?" he sounds serious when he says this. Jisoo knew this tone. She nods and places her hand on his shoulder giving him support that he is not alone.

"keep your head on my shoulder" she told. he didn't said anything, did what she told. he could hear jisoo's heartbeat. "Were you worried when I ran away from there?" he asks after he calms down a bit. she hums playing with his fingers, he looks down to their interwined fingers. "sorry for that" he apologizes, Jisoo smiles little when he closes their hands in a fist.

"I need to meet Dr Choi, to ask about her"he meant his mother, real mother. "You don't need to, I took her name and address" Jisoo replies. She always has all solutions for him, always read to take the bullets for him. He feels very guilty, very.  Everytime he remembers how much she does for him, and he never knew how to show his gratefulness. It made him feel very pathetic. She deserves better that's what rants in his head.

Was he selfish to keep her?

Flashback
It was annual day function in the university. Girls were busy with decorations, boys were busy with other arrangements. Taehyung was in the charge of welcoming guests.

"Tae and I will wear blue" Jisoo told Lisa while doing some chores. "Of course as usual, you guys will be coupling! But for one day can't you match with me instead of him!" Lisa huffs in jealousy. Jisoo giggled pinching Lisa's cheeks, "awwh baby is jealous huh?" Lisa pushes her hand away, Jisoo tries to hug her.

Meanwhile, A guy named Joshua watched Jisoo. He always had been watching her, admiring her. Her outgoing personality, cute face, beautiful smile, sweet talk has always managed to shake his heart. Today he decided to confess to her.

His eyes moves to Taehyung, there were always rumours that Taehyung and Jisoo are dating. But he believes they aren't. Because he was Taehyung's friend and Taehyung never said Jisoo is his girlfriend. They were childhood friends, that's what Joshua believed.

The function starts, Jisoo and Taehyung came together with Lisa and Jimin accompanying.

"Wassup guys!"Jisoo went closer to her group mates. Taehyung moves to do his duties. Joshua enters and his eyes starts looking for Jisoo. Finally found her talking with her friends.

"Hey Soo!" He greets walking behind her, she turns with a smile. "hey Josh! wassup!"she greets back. "do you mind coming with me little I have something to say"Jisoo nods following him.

As they went somewhere quieter, Joshua starts,"it's been a long time we saw are friends... but I think that-" he stops midway as he saw Taehyung calling Jisoo. "Mr Wang is calling for you"he informs Jisoo. "Oh okay I'm coming! Josh let's talk after the function" she gave a smile to him and Taehyung before she runs out from there.

Joshua stood nervously in his place when his eyes mets Taehyung's. His eyes felt too cold to look at. He never saw something like this in Taehyung's eyes. He was always a calm person. "Did something happened Taehyung?" He ends the silence. "I don't know, Joshua. You tell me" his reply confused Joshua.

Shrugging off,he chuckles"I don't think anything is wrong, but a very right thing gonna happen soon" he means about the confession. Taehyung walks to him until he stands beside him leaning on the reeling. Both stood with her back pressed against the reeling. "Do you like Jisoo?" Taehyung asks straightforward. Joshua was taken back but managed to answer with a yes. "Are you thinking of confessing today?" He asks another question which Joshua again replied with a yes.

There's again silence between the two boy. Untill Taehyung gave a bitter reply, "don't try" Joshua looks at him with a bitter expressions, "why?" Joshua asks. "because the only boy Kim Jisoo has ever like is Kim Taehyung, she is almost obsessed with me" his reply holds no appropriation. he wants to make sure Joshua understands his place in Jisoo's life. heck there's no place for him in her life!

Joshua scoofs, "you guys aren't even dating right? you never acknowledged her as your girlfriend" it was true but it was also true no guy ever approached Jisoo because Taehyung made it obvious that Jisoo is crazy for him. Like many times he would wera their couple items, he would let her hold his arms, he would let her post his photos, he would post her pictures on his account, he would let her do whatever she wants with him.

If still any guy confessed Jisoo just reject straight on face, and later Taehyung would rub it on their face that they only boy who could touch Jisoo is him. But for Joshua he was scared because Joshua was close friends with Jisoo. He starts thinking what if she gets tired of running behind him and accepts Joshua? This is why he came to warn him.

"I never said to deny either" he calmly response. "I just want to warn you because I don't want a good friend of mine to be heartbroken and also your friendship with Jisoo might get ruined because of this" saying this he pats Joshua's shoulder and left.

Taehyung comes back and finds Jisoo smiling and talking to Lisa. He feels very relaxed to know Jisoo could never leave him.

Flashback ends.

"What's her name?" He asks. "Park Youngji" Jisoo replies. His mother has to answer him at any cost. "let's go to the address" he stood up breaking their interwined hands. "Right now? Are you sure? Why don't you take some rest?" She suggests but he was too pumped to meet his mother.

"No Jisoo, I need answers today itself!" Then they walk to a taxi to the address.

As they reached there Taehyung takes a deep breath when they ring the doorbell. Jisoo looks at him softly, it was such a crucial moment.

When the door opens a lady in her 50s shows up and Jisoo asks, "Are you Park Youngji?" Taehyung was nervously staring at the lady.

"No" the lady's answer broke taehyung out of his dilemma. He was preparing himself for to face her, ask her questions. "Isn't this the address of Park Youngji?" Jisoo was also baffled.

"They sold the house very long time ago. Almost 30 years ago" she replies breaking Taehyung's confidence mode. His hope were being crushed slowly. "Do you know where they live right now?"Jisoo questions again.

"Parks left this country I think.." she says remembering something. Jisoo looks at Taehyung as they both were disappointed, hopeless. Soon the lady replies, "their daughter Park Youngji got married to a man here before they sold this house and left the country" as she finished saying Taehyung stumbled on his place, Jisoo was quick enough to hold him.

The lady felt sympathy for them so she called them inside.
