Queen

FIANCE?

The entire hall went silent.

Lisa Manoban stared at Jeon Jungkook's hand resting on Kim Taehyungie's waist.

The students behind her were already whispering loudly.

"Oh my god..."

"They look so good together."

"Wait wasn't Jungkook with Lisa?"

"No way President Jeon likes President Kim."

Lisa's face darkened instantly.

LISA: "Looks like I interrupted something."

Taehyungie immediately stepped away calmly.

TAE: "Practice ended already."

Jungkook frowned slightly at the sudden distance.

The instructor clapped awkwardly.

INSTRUCTOR: "Actually they were doing very well—"

TAE: "We're leaving."

She grabbed her blazer and walked toward the exit.

As she passed Lisa, the latter intentionally bumped her shoulder.

LISA: "Careful, President Kim."

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

Jungkook's expression hardened.

But before he could say anything—

Taehyungie smiled.

A dangerous smile.

TAE: "You too."

Lisa hated that smile.

Because it always meant Taehyungie was about to destroy someone politely.

—

OUTSIDE THE HALL

Taehyungie walked silently through the corridor.

Jungkook quickly followed behind her.

JUNGKOOK: "Why did you leave like that?"

TAE: "Because practice ended."

JUNGKOOK: "You were angry."

TAE: "No."

JUNGKOOK: "Again with the lying."

Taehyungie stopped walking and turned toward him.

TAE: "Why does it matter to you?"

Jungkook opened his mouth—

—but paused.

Because honestly...

he didn't know anymore.

At first she was just interesting.

Then annoying.

Then confusing.

Now...

he looked for her everywhere without realizing it.

Before he could answer, Taehyungie's phone rang.

She looked at the caller ID and immediately smiled softly.

Jungkook's mood instantly worsened.

TAE: "Hello?"

WIN METAWIN: "Princessss where are you?"

TAE: "At uni."

WIN: "Come outside quickly."

TAE: "Why?"

WIN: "Because your favorite cousin came all the way here and you're asking why?"

Taehyungie laughed quietly.
