Chapter - 40

( Please ignore mistakes )

After the engagement, everyone was sitting together, casually talking about the upcoming marriage, which was only a few days away. Jungkook came downstairs and noticed Taehyung sitting beside his Jensi noona. He also saw his hyung sitting just next to the elder.

He sighed sadly and took a seat in the front with Sandy, who was playfully watching him. Jungkook didn't notice her gaze, as his focus was entirely on Taehyung. Sandy smirked, leaned closer to Jungkook, and whispered, "You know, you can look over here too."

Jungkook immediately turned to Sandy, who gave him a teasing wink. He gasped and quickly put some distance between them. Seeing his reaction, Sandy chuckled quietly and shifted her gaze to Jackson with a smirk. She raised her eyebrows at him, silently reminding him of their bet.

Jackson glanced at Taehyung, who was still engaged in conversation with Jensi. Clearing his throat, he said, "What do you say? Shall we go shopping?" His eyes quickly darted to Jensi when Taehyung turned to look at him.

Jensi's face lit up with a wide smile. "Yes, sure! I was going to suggest it anyway. I still have more shopping to do. Let's go today!" She turned to Taehyung, adding, "Hyung, come with us!"

Taehyung hesitated. "I-I?... But I don't have plans for shopping right now," Taehyung said, denying her. Everyone looked at him.

"Oh, come on, hyung, you can't say no to shopping, especially not to an upcoming bride. Let's go, we're all going to enjoy it," said Sandy, who spoke the last sentence while eyeing Jungkook, who was waiting for the elder's answer. Well, he didn't want to go either, but he especially didn't want Taehyung to go with them, cus his hyung would be there too.

Taehyung looked at Sandy and then at Jensi's pleading face. He sighed and nodded his head. "Okay, I'm in," he finally agreed, making everyone happy. However, Jungkook felt a little sad, though not too much. Sandy glanced at him and asked,

"Jungkook, are you coming?"

Jungkook, still staring at Taehyung, then turned to her. "Y-yes," he replied.

They all entered the mall, and Jensi was so excited that she quickly called her fiancé over. As soon as he arrived, she became busy with him, leaving Jackson the perfect opportunity to slip next to Taehyung. Taehyung returned his smile warmly.

On the other side, Jungkook stood with Sandy, but his gaze remained fixed on the elder. Sandy noticed and, with a playful grin, tapped him on the shoulder. "Shall we go shopping?" she asked.

Jungkook didn't answer, still staring at Taehyung and Jackson as they moved through the crowd. Jackson had managed to drag Taehyung away from the main hall, and Jungkook's eyes widened. He quickly started running toward them, but Sandy grabbed his wrist.

"Hey, where do you think you're going? I don't want to go that way. Come here," she said firmly.

Jungkook, confused, glanced at her, but before he could protest, she dragged him toward a store. "But nona i-"

"I'm not your nonna!" Sandy interrupted sharply, pulling him inside. She immediately began showing him some dresses she was interested in, while Jungkook stood there, utterly confused.

"Why are you asking me? You should be asking hyung," he said, watching her with a confused expression.

Sandy rolled her eyes dramatically. "I could ask him, but he's too busy with Taehyung. Why wouldn't he be? Taehyung's so attractive, and your brother clearly can't take his eyes off him. Now, here I am, left alone."

Jungkook didn't respond, instead turning his gaze back toward Taehyung and Jackson, where Jackson was picking out clothes for Taehyung, and the elder seemed to be trying to stop him.
