Kim Taehyung, a K-pop idol, has been haunted by a traumatic event from two years ago that changed his life forever. He lost someone he loved deeply, a fangirl who meant the world to him.
Jimin walked to Taehyung, his voice heavy with concern "Taehyu...

Taehyung and Y/n decided to have dinner at a quiet restaurant. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing evening. As they settled in, Taehyung's phone buzzed "Excuse me for a moment" he said politely and stepped out to answer the call.
On his way back to the private room, a man accidentally bumped into him. Taehyung's phone slipped from his hand and hit the floor. The man quickly bent down to retrieve it, apologizing. "I'm so sorry, sir—" He stopped mid-sentence, his eyes widening in recognition.
Taehyung's expression mirrored his shock "Jimin-aa?"
"Taehyung-aa?! What are you doing here?"
"What else would someone do in a restaurant?" Taehyung replied with a casual shrug "Of course, I'm here to eat."
Jimin smirked and grabbed Taehyung's arm "Great! Let's eat together, then. It'll be fun!"
"Jimin-aa, wait—" Taehyung tried to stop him, but Jimin was already heading toward the private room.
"Is this your room?" Jimin asked, pointing at the door. Taehyung sighed and nodded reluctantly.
Without hesitation, Jimin pushed the door open. Inside, Y/n sat with her back facing the door. Jimin froze, his eyes darting from her to Taehyung. He silently mouthed, "Who is she?"
Before Taehyung could answer, another voice called out "Hyung, how long does it take to wash your hands?"
Jungkook appeared, his curious gaze landing on Taehyung "Hyung! You're here too? Is this your room?"
Jungkook peeked inside and spotted Y/n. His eyes widened, and he blurted "Hyung, who is she?!"
Startled by the loud voice, Y/n turned around. Her gaze met the three men standing at the door—all staring at her with varying degrees of surprise.
Jimin leaned closer to Taehyung and whispered "Are you two.. dating?"
Taehyung shot him a sharp glare "Jimin-aa, stop imagining things. It's nothing like that."
"Fine, fine!" Jimin raised his hands in mock surrender.
Ignoring the commotion, Jungkook strolled into the room and sat beside Y/n "Hey, Y/n! Looks like we're meeting again. Don't you think we're destined to cross paths?" he said with a teasing grin.
Y/n's face flushed red, caught off guard by his bold words.
Taehyung and Jimin exchanged incredulous looks before rushing to Jungkook.
Jimin lightly smacked the back of Jungkook's head "Yah! Where did you learn to flirt like that?"
Taehyung sighed, shaking his head "Obviously, from you.. Where else would he learn it from?"
"What?!" Jimin exclaimed, feigning innocence "I haven't done anything like that in ages!"
Taehyung raised an eyebrow "Should I remind you of our last fan meeting antics?"
Realizing he couldn't argue, Jimin quickly changed the topic and sat beside Y/n "Y/n-aa, how have you been?"
Taehyung frowned, annoyed by Jimin's sudden friendliness, but didn't say anything.
The four of them eventually settled into a lively conversation. They laughed, shared stories, and enjoyed their meal together. But then Jungkook, out of curiosity, asked "Y/n, you mentioned living in your friend's house. What about your parents? Where are they?"
Y/n's smile faltered, and the cheerful atmosphere shifted "I... I don't know where they are."
Her voice grew softer as she continued "When I was five, we went to the park together. It was such a happy day. I thought nothing could go wrong. But when I got off a ride, I couldn't find them. I looked everywhere, but they were gone.
"An old lady found me crying and took me to her orphanage. I've been living there for the past 20 years. At first, I believed I got lost, but as I grew older, I realized... they abandoned me. They left me there on purpose.
"I don't know why. I've asked myself a million times what I did wrong. Why didn't they want me? But I never found an answer."
The room fell silent. Y/n's voice trembled slightly, but she forced a small smile "It's okay, though. I've accepted it. They didn't love me, and that's fine. I've learned to live alone. I'm used to it now."
Jimin frowned deeply "I don't understand how people can do such things. Your parents left you, and back then, Taehyung was hurt by Ji—"
"Jimin-aa!" Taehyung interrupted sharply, giving him a warning look.
Jimin quickly changed the subject. He reached out and held Y/n's hand "Y/n, who said you're alone? You have us. You have BTS. We're here for you. You'll never be alone again."
Y/n's eyes shimmered with unshed tears, and for the first time in a long while, she felt warmth in her heart. "Thank you," she whispered.
As the evening ended, Taehyung couldn't shake off the strange, unexplainable feeling growing in his chest. Without realizing it, Y/n had started to occupy a small yet significant corner of his heart.
Before parting ways, they exchanged phone numbers, a newfound closeness binding them together.
