Healing Hearts

Part 11

The day of the exhibition finally arrives. Y/N wakes up early, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. She carefully packs her paintings, making sure everything is perfect. Jimin and Jungkook are there to support her, helping with the preparations.

Jimin: (smiling) "You ready for the big day, Y/N?"

Y/N: (nervously) "I think so. I'm just a bit anxious."

Jungkook: "Don't worry, Noona. Your work is amazing. Everyone's going to love it."

Y/N: (smiling) "Thanks, Kookie. I couldn't have done it without you both."

They load the paintings into the car and head to the exhibition venue. As they arrive, Y/N notices several men in black outfits standing around the venue.

Y/N: (turning to Jimin) "Why do they look so professional?"

Jungkook: (whispering) "Because they are. Jimin hyung hired them for your safety."

Y/n: (turning to Jimin) You are unbelievable. 

After that, Jungkook goes to recheck the security inside. Jimin stays close to Y/N all the time. Suddenly, someone taps Y/N on the shoulder, startling her. The man looks equally startled.

Taehyung: "Oh, I am really sorry for that, Miss Jeon."

Jimin: (glancing at Y/N and hitting Taehyung playfully) "Don't you dare scare her like that."

(Taehyung and Jimin continue their fun conversation. Jungkook comes toward Y/N, looking concerned.)

Jungkook: "Noona, are you okay?"

Y/N: "Yes, of course. Why do you look so worried?"

As the exhibition opens, people start to gather around Y/N's display, admiring her work. She receives numerous compliments, and her confidence begins to grow. Jimin and Jungkook watch proudly from a distance, happy to see her shining.

Visitor: (approaching Y/N) "These paintings are incredible. The emotions you capture are so powerful."

Y/N: (blushing) "Thank you so much. It means a lot to hear that."

As the evening progresses, Y/N notices a familiar face in the crowd. It's the CEO who had caused so much trouble. Her heart skips a beat, but she tries to stay calm. She glances at Jimin and Jungkook, who have also noticed him.

Jimin: (whispering to Jungkook) "Stay close to Y/N. We can't let him cause any trouble here."

Jungkook: (nodding) "Got it, Hyung."

The CEO approaches Y/N's display, a smirk on his face. He looks at her paintings, then at her.

CEO: (mockingly) "Impressive work. You've come a long way since our last encounter."

Y/N: (trying to stay composed) "What do you want?"

CEO: "Just appreciating the art. Is that a crime?"

Jimin: (stepping in) "Leave her alone. You've done enough damage."

CEO: (smirking) "Relax. I'm just here to enjoy the exhibition."

Jungkook: (firmly) "You need to leave. Now."

The CEO chuckles but eventually walks away, disappearing into the crowd. Y/N lets out a breath she didn't realize she was holding.
