이십사

Like a saga continuing, Taehyung was once again restless. Cause being Jungkook again.

It's been a week Jungkook was gone and from last three four days, it's as if they talked less and lesser.

Not that any of them was too busy, rather it's as if Jungkook didn't want to talk as much.

They'd chat, for short time. Calls- almost none. And when they'd chat, Jungkook would talk just fine but with less excitement than usual.

Taehyung couldn't stop thinking.

Was their resolvance before he left, just a temporary talk?

Was Jungkook still upset with him and pretended?

Did he really leave for his mom or to just- get a break from him?

This time, he even wanted to ask openly, but they'd barely even talk; How'd he ask?

And not to mention, the last time they talked properly, Jungkook mentioned about a girl named Eunbin. He even casually said how she crushed on him for years dumbly even after knowing he's gay and he saw her just as a 'fun to tease sister'.

But Taehyung couldn't take it as funnily.

Now let me tell you Jungkook's side.

He wasn't mad or upset with Taehyung, rather he was testing him. The self question from that night, still lingered in his head.

And he wanted to assure himself if things were really not all-one-sided. If Taehyung really even cared.

There was still one more day that Taehyung would come to pick him up and they'd go back; so he wanted to see the waters up till he faces him a day later.

Eunbin, being in her semester break, would often visit Mrs Jeon. And also catch up with Jungkook. He told her a lot about Taehyung and his situations.

Honestly, she was first doubtful and angry even to hear Jungkook's one sided efforts but hearing Taehyung's situation and understanding things some more, she realized the situationship.

Jungkook also told her about the 'not contacting enough' thing and she said he's doing well. Jungkook had every rights to see Taehyung's feelings for him.

Taehyung was going back to cabin after half eaten lunch when he heard,

"..I'm telling you, she didn't leave for any aunt's birthday, she just wanted to get away from him"

"Are you sure she left for her own peace?"

"Ofcourse girl, you said your friend wasn't even happy with that guy, and when they had an argument for that guy's fault, ofcourse she'd leave; she wanted her peace and maybe couldn't say it to him and gave excuse; simple as it is"

"Actually I'd be glad if she doesn't come back to him, he's an asshole you know? I warned her long ago"

"Contact her if you can, maybe she might need some help? You sh–..."

Taehyung wished he was a deaf.

Going back to his cabin in hurry, he called Jiah who just stuffed the meat in her mouth. She half chewed it and gulped picking it up,

"Ye- Yes sir?"

"Clear my schedules for today and tomorrow, I've somewhere to go"

"Huh? What- sir-? Sir?"
But the call was long done.

She left her food there and hurried difficultly with heels to Taehyung's cabin and saw- no one. Taehyung was already gone.

"What the hell?"
