Chapter 29:Reunion

9th March, 2025

JUNGKOOK'S POV

The elevator doors slid open with a soft chime, and I practically leaped out, my strides eating up the ground floor hallway as I headed toward the parking lot of my apartment. Tae hyung's KIA Carnival came into view, and I yanked the door open and climbed in, breathless.

"Hey, hyung!" I greeted, buckling my seatbelt.

"Hey, Jungkook-ah!" He greeted back, starting the ignition.

While glancing at Tae hyung, I caught sight of Jimin hyung in the backseat, smirking at me while giving me the most exaggerated eyebrow wiggle I've ever seen.

"Uh... why is everyone here?" I asked, slowly turning my head to see all five members squished together in the second and third row of the microcar.

Hobi hyung leaned over the seat, grinning ear to ear. "We'll go with you for moral support!"

"Yeah, Jungkook-ah! Fighting!" Jin shouted from the last row, giving me two very intense thumbs up and what could only be described as a winning smile.

"Aish, fine, fine! Hyung, did you bring the bouquet I asked for?" I turned back to Tae hyung.

"Here you go, Kookie!" Jimin hyung thrust the bouquet forward winking in an oddly approving way. Rolling my eyes, I took it from him.

"So, are we all set to go?" Taehyung asked and I gave him a little nod, the car engine roaring as if we were in some kind of heist movie.

"Buckle up, everyone. Destination: The Muse Gallery!" Taehyung exclaimed pulling out of the parking lot and loud cheers and laughter filled the car.

I could only bury my face in my palms. "Gosh! What kind of chaotic squad I'm bringing along as moral support."

After a good 30-minute drive filled with my hyungs' ridiculous commentaries, we finally arrived at the studio where Yn's art campaign is being held. I was unbuckling my seatbelt when Suga hyung suddenly yelled, "Jungkook-ah, wait!"

"What is it?" I asked, glancing at him in confusion.

"Don't you wanna put a note in the bouquet?" Suga hyung said, waving a tiny note card.

I raised an eyebrow. "Is it something really important?"

"It is if you really want to make an impression," Taehyung chimed in with his infamous smirk. "Remember, girls often appreciate the little things that show thoughtfulness and genuine effort. It's not always about grand gestures but the personal touches that mean a lot," he explained.

"Wow, you seem to know a lot about what girls love and whatnot. It's almost like you're speaking from experience," Namjoon hyung mumbled from the back, giving Tae the most dramatic side-eye I've ever seen.

Taehyung's smirk instantly dissapeared as he stammered, "W-what are you guys talking about? It's c-common for guys to... umm... know these things!" His face was practically the color of a tomato and I was barely holding back a laugh.

Namjoon hyung definitely knows about Tae hyung's relationship; it's obvious from the way he enjoys teasing him.

"Aheem!" I cleared my throat, deciding to save Tae hyung from getting exposed today. "Does anybody have a pen?"

Namjoon immediately handed me a pen. I took it and they all quickly leaned forward staring at the note."Go sit back! I ain't performing an open-heart surgery here!" I yelled and they quickly went back to their seats with a sulky face.I scribbled a short, sweet message on the note before putting it into the bouquet.
