Depressed

AUTHOR POV.

After twenty damn minutes, Taehyung finally succeeded in waking Jennie up. Currently they're being the foodie couple they are, of course munching some breakfast and gossiping, laughing and let's just say having quality time.

But Taehyung noticed that Jennie is acting so cold and less talking compared to before. He tried to lighten the mood but Jennie would just chuckle or give a fake awkward chuckle, it was bothering him a lot.

He wondered if he did anything that hurt her, he thought but found nothing, he never does anything that'd probably hurt her feelings. Seeing her so cold bothered him a lot, he was hating every second of it.

He tried many ways but failed to lighten her mood, she remained giving fake chuckles which she perhaps thought isn't noticeable but it was, as for Taehyung, of course it is. He's her boyfriend, he knows how she actually chuckles and can tell when she's faking it.

TAEHYUNG POV.

It's evening, and Jennie is still acting the same, it's getting on my nerves and getting the hell out of me. I didn't tell her anything about it till now, but it's bothering me a lot, so I decided to ask her what's the matter, but not straight forward.

I was ruffling Kuma's fur and thinking about it, while Jennie was innocently and quietly sitting beside me, looking annoying, I'm sorry, but I hate it when she's distant with me.

"Jennie"

I called out, she responded by looking at me.

"Let's play something"  -T

"Play?" -J

"Yes" -T

"Ohh" -J

"What do you wanna play?" -J

Jennie was clearly confused by my strange behavior, of course I never said "let's play" of course I'm not that childish. But sometimes I play with her when she requests me to.

"Truth or Dare" -T

"Okay" -J

"You go first" -T

"Okay... Truth or dare?" -J

"Dare" -T

Jennie finally smiled a little, a little mischievous smile, I get it she's planning on making me do something I won't like, but that's okay as long as she's smiling.

"Okay! Do 20 push ups!"

She said with a giggle, I smiled in relief as I finally got to see her gummy giggles. But what, she told me to do 20 push-ups, ughhh.. but alright.

I did those damn push ups, she giggled at that time, then we continued playing, her smile slowly faded again, I hate it.

"Okay it's my turn now" -T

"Yah.." -J

"Truth or Dare?" -T

"Truth" -J

Thank god she chose the truth, now I can finally know what's in her head.

"What's wrong with you?" -T

"Huh?" -J

"Are you sad? Feeling unwell? Angry with me? What's wrong?" -T

"N-nothing.. why are you asking?" -J

"It's so obvious... You look depressed, I tried many things but you remained quiet like that, what's the matter? Tell me." -T

"I'm fine" -J

My patience was wearing thin, it's so obvious she's depressed and I want to and have to know the reason but she's busy hiding and lying.

"This is the last time, tell me."

I said in a stern tone.

"Fine" -J

I pulled her closer, wrapped an arm around her and said in a soft tone, despite my eagerness to know what's the matter. I rested her head in my chest.

"Yeah.. what's wrong, sweetheart?" -T

"I'm sad.."

Jennie said and pouted, she was looking adorable, but forget about it.

"Why?" -T

"Because... Fans think I'm dating Kai.."  -J

"Is that really the reason? You weren't sad this whole year, but why now?" -T

"No, this isn't the reason.. they're hating me" -J

Jennie clearly was fighting her tears with the pout, it ached my heart.

"You know.. it's alright.. don't listen to them.. it's not even like you're dating him, you're dating me and you're mine. They hate you because they're useless and jobless, and have nothing to do.. listening to them is a dumb thing.. don't do it."

Jennie stayed silent.
