Fri [ends] ミ Taennie

Moving on.

Jimin arrives at Jungkook's house, where he's greeted by the familiar sight of the jk and tae lounging in the living room. The maknae line been staying together over for a week, not wanting to leave Taehyung alone during this tough time.

Jungkook looks up from his phone, a hint of a smile on his face. "Hyung, you're here! We were just about to order some food."

Taehyung, lying on the couch, barely acknowledges Jimin's presence, his eyes fixed on the ceiling.

Jimin's heart goes out to his friend, and he sits down beside him. "Hey, Tae. How are you doing?"

Taehyung shrugs, his voice barely above a whisper. "I'm fine."

Jimin knows better, but he doesn't push the issue. Instead, he turns to Jungkook. "What's the plan for tonight?"

Jungkook grins mischievously. "We were thinking of having a gaming marathon, and then maybe some karaoke."

Jimin chuckles. "Sounds like a plan. But first, let's get some food in our stomachs."

As they prepare for karaoke, Taehyung wanders into the kitchen, searching for a snack. His eyes land on the container of kimchi stew, and his curiosity is piqued.

He opens the lid, and the familiar aroma wafts up, transporting him back to Jennie's home. He takes a tentative taste, and his eyes widen as he realizes the flavor is identical to Jennie's mom's cooking.

Taehyung's heart skips a beat as he connects the dots. "This is... Jennie's mom's kimchi stew," he says, his voice barely above a whisper.

Jimin and Jungkook exchange a knowing glance, aware of the emotional significance.

Taehyung's eyes well up with tears as he remembers the happy times they shared at Jennie's home. He feels a deep longing for her presence, and the reality of her departure hits him like a ton of bricks.

Taehyung's eyes are fixed on Jimin, his voice filled with excitement. "Where did you get this kimchi stew? Did you see Jennie?"

Jimin smirks, taking a seat next to Taehyung. "Actually, I saw her at the Gucci party last night. I was worried about her, but I managed to protect her from Kai's clutches."

Taehyung's eyes narrow, intrigued. "What do you mean? How did you protect her?"

Jimin chuckles, a sly grin spreading across his face. "Let's just say Joy was my wingman. Or should I say, wing-woman?"

Taehyung raises an eyebrow, his curiosity piqued. "What happened?"

Jimin leans in, a conspiratorial look on his face. "I'll tell you later, but let's just say it was a team effort. We made sure Jennie was safe and sound."

Taehyung nods, his mind racing with questions. He senses there's more to the story, but Jimin's not revealing anything else... yet.

After puzzling the dots, Taehyung's expression darkens, his eyes flashing with anger. "So you're telling me that Kai was bothering Jennie again? That guy..can't leave her alone, can he?"
