"Happy Birthday Haneul!"


"Haneul dancing queen! Happy Birthday, girl!"


"Hannnnnn~~~!!" you smile at those greetings and hugs that you received from your friends as soon as you arrived in the practice room.


You can't lie, your eyes immediately scanning for Jungkook. He told you that he's going to missed today's practice but yet you still wish that he will be here. Even though he wished you a happy birthday earlier but you still want to see him.


You miss him.


These days Jungkook has been so busy. The truth is he got a big offer from a big company to be train as their private dancers and of course being a supportive girlfriend, you give him full support but now, you feel uneasy about it.


It's selfish, but you can't help it.


"Looking for someone, birthday girl?" a voice asking and as you turn to the voice, you found Jimin smiling to you while reach out his hand. "Happy Birthday! I wish you always slay that dance floor, stay healthy, stay beautiful and always be happy." He added once you reach out your hand as well.


"Thank you, Jimin. It's such a sweet wishes."



Well, it's been a week since Jimin came here and although the tension rise between Jimin and Jungkook that first day, they managed to cool down again afterall. Everything is just alright except for Jungkook,


and his more excuses for breaking the promises.


"Haneul! Where is Jungkook?" one of your friend ask as he approach you and Jimin.


"Ah, he said he can't come here today." you answered and few of them come to you once they heard it.


"We're going to practice the new zombie choreo, what to do? The date is getting closer."


"I heard that he will focus more on his new company."


"What about our choreo then? We can't just waiting for him."


They start to complain and you bite your lower lips, thinking about how to calm them down.


"Jimin!" you said loud enough for all of them to turn to you including Jimin. "He could take Jungkook's position when he's not here. He's as good as Jungkook too!" you added and Jimin widened his eyes at your words.


"I know he's capable too, but we need a certainty. If Jungkook really can't join this month dance, then we will just continue with Jimin. He can't just come and go as he wish."


"That's right. It's unfair to Jimin-ssi too. As if he was just a substitute whenever Jungkook left."


You know what they said were right, but you feel bad too for letting them talk about Jungkook like that.


Although that's the fact. Jungkook rarely spend time here anymore.


"Guys, I'm Jungkook's bestfriend too and I don't want to snatch away his position without any permission. Give us both a day, we'll ask him and if he really can't make it and if he let me, I'll try my best to fill his position." Jimin speak up for you and luckily the others agreed with him.




⠀⠀⠀⠀***




"Haneul, are you going to meet Jungkook tonight?" Jimin asked you when you were about to leave.


"I'm not sure. He's kinda... busy." you fake a laugh and look away. "Why?"


"Ah, it's just it's your birthday. I thought you both will spend time together." He answered and immediately regret it once he notice your face color changed. "Ah, come on. Let's go to have fun tonight. No one is going home this early on their birthday!" He quickly added and drag you to God know where.




⠀⠀⠀⠀< JIMIN POV >




After going for arcades, both of us end up in this tent. I know that she's going to drink Soju, but I thought she's a good drinker.


But, I think I'm wrong.


"Jimin-ahhh!!" She called my name, guess what she's completely drunk.


If I know she's easily to get drunk, I won't bring her here. Aish, she told me she's a good drinker!!

What a lie.

"Do you want to know a secret?"


"Haneul-ah, you're drunk. Let's go home, okay?"


"Today is not my real birthday." She continue and somehow it gain my attention, suddenly forget about going home.


"What do you mean?"


"My birthday is not today." She smirk and continue. "My real parents left me in the orphanage before I get adopt to my new family. Today's date is just a date where my parents left me in the orphanage, it's not my real birthday. No one know about my real birthday date." She said it slowly between her hiccups and I can't help but move closer to her.


Her zodiac sign isn't aquarius!


"So, when is you real birthday date then?" I asked curiously, studying her face.


Could it be just because she's drunk she started to talk non-sense, but usually people speak the truth when they drunk.


"My birthday date?" She show a silly smile again, and I can't help but admiring her. She looks so beautiful right now. "It's the first day of November!" She then grin and collapse on my shoulder.


"Want to hear another secret?" She mumbles but I just nod.


I can't concencrate anymore, because I think my heart start to beat again.


"Jungkook. I think he doesn't love me anymore." She said.


I turn to see her face that already cover with tears. She cry.


"He's slowly drifted away from me. He never show up in our community anymore. It's getting hard to call him. He even,.. he even just wish me a happy birthday, no calls, nothing. I didn't ask him for surprises or gifts, I just need him." She keep blabbering and cry.


Her tears keep flowing down from her now-tired-eyes and now beside it started beating, my heart started to feel something new, the pain.


I feel hurt, seeing her like this.


"Haneul, look at me." I whisper slowly and hold her chin so I could see her face closer. "Stop crying." I said and like a magic, her unstoppable tears stop as she widened her eyes at me.


I know I shouldn't do this, but I can't hold my self anymore.


I kiss her.


It surprise me that she didn't push me away but before this gone too far, I need to stop. I have to.


"I'm sorry but I just want you to know that I'm here for you. So stop crying." I pull her closer to my chest and hug her.


"I'm here." I repeat my sentence while soothing her by patting her hair slowly.


and she hug me back.
