Mr. Arrogant [Book 3] | Kim Taehyung (re-published) [COMPLETED]

Chapter 21

Taehyung's POV

"Want me to get you a personal bodyguard?"

Hyejin's ears twitched by the question. She raised her head and looked at me with her eyebrows furrowed together.

"Are you out of your mind?" she chuckled, nervously while taking a sip from her coffee.

I raised an eyebrow. "Um-no?" I replied.

She places her mug down on the table then took a deep breath. "And, why would I need a personal bodyguard?" she questioned me.

"For protection," I simply replied.

"Protection from what? A wild dog from the neighbourhood?"

"No! It's protection from who." I corrected her. "It's to protect you from him."

"You mean, Seojun?"

Just hearing that name, makes my blood boil. Immediately, I pressed my index finger on Hyejin's lips, shushing her.

"Don't." I said in a serious tone. "Don't say that name in front of me or in this house." I blinked a several times before continuing. "In fact, don't mention that name at all. Inside, Outside. Whenever, wherever."

Sighing, Hyejin drank the last remaining coffee from her mug. "Yes, sir." she replied, slowly closing her eyes and reopening them again after two seconds.

"So, do you want me to hire you a personal bodyguard?" I repeated the question, once again. "Yes or no?"

Hyejin thought for a moment, staying quiet and still.

"Well....." She started to say. "I don't know. You decide."

Just as expected. "Fine." I sighed.

"Would you like it of it's someone you're comfortable with?" I asked, smirking.

She stared at me, looking like she's about to burst out laughing. "Wha?" She giggled. "Sure. Why not."

Hyejin's POV

"So......" I muttered as I watched tow guys, around the living room. One sitting on the couch watching TV. While the other walking and running back and forth in the living room, like a lost yet hyper child.

"What are you guys doing here?" I asked, out loud, my voice high.

They're attention focused on me, stopping on whatever they were doing. "To accompany you?" Jimin said, calmly as he turned around on the couch, facing me. "To be more precise, we're here to guard you."

Jungkook nodded along as Jimin spoke.

"Let me guess, Taehyung asked you guys, didn't he?" I asked, crossing my arms on my chest.

"Bingo!" jungkook squealed and continued on running around, jumping from one couch to another.

"Yah!" I yelled at him. "Stop jumping like a kid! You're already an adult!"

Jimin shook his head as he muttered: "Why are you so hyper today?" to Jungkook. In reply, Jungkook shrugged and finally calmed down, sitting properly on the couch he was standing at.

"Better," I whispered, only for myself to hear.

Inhaling another portion of air, I looked up, moving closer to them. "So, why did he ask you to come here?" I questioned them, suspiciously.
