MY PERFECT PARTNER

6 | Guilt |

Rosè went home feeling guilty. She wasn't able to sleep for some reason

Aishh!! Why did I told them it was Jimin!! Aishh pabo!...Rosé mentally facepalmed herself.

Rosé didn't wanna break Jimin's trust but she had no other choice, she did it because she's tired being involved in some sort of challenge made just because of a misunderstanding.

Back at the Jin and Jisoo's own manor for their arranged marriage...

Jisoo was blowdrying her hair.

And Jin just finished from shower.

"Are you alright?" Jin asked her

"Isn't it obvious?" Jisoo asked with a cold tone

Jin sat beside her.

"What are you so mad about? Trust me, Rosé is just my favorite employee, I don't have any feelings for her" Jin said

"Really? Those gestures you gave her isn't it obvious that you like her?" Jisoo pouted

"Jisoo ssi.. Don't you trust me? Look.. I have to tell you... That challenge you proposed was all for nothing. Even if you lost in that competition, I still have my eyes on you Jisoo ssi. I love you" Jin said in a persuading tone.

Jisoo just turned off the blowdryer and had her poker face still on.

Jin cupped her face and kissed her forehead. "Look, if you don't trust me. I just want you to know that everything I said was real. Goodnight"

Jin then went to bed first and Jisoo just looked at him before laying down beside him.

Then Jin cuddles her

"Just know that I will never stop loving you Jisoo ssi. You're my only one. You're mine" Jin said

Upon hearing those words of Jin, Jisoo had felt a flush of relief. She finally felt reassured that Jin won't cheat on her for Rosé.

Then guilt struck her. She really misunderstood everything about Jin liking Rosé.

I have to say sorry to Rosé for involving her in this challenge...Jisoo thought.

The next morning...
At Jimin's farm....

Jimin was chilling peacefully on his bench as he was drinking tea when a group of vans arrived.

There came out Jin, and the rest of the project proposal team, then its director.

Jimin was flabbergasted when he saw them.

What are they doing here?.... Jimin thought

Then he was also shocked when Rosé came out of the van as well.

"Hyung, what are you doing here?" Jimin bowed down politely as Jin walked towards him.

"Park Jimin, we need to talk" Jin commanded.

Flashforward >>>

Rosé's palms were sweating. She really felt nothing but guilt. Now Jimin would find her as a betrayer.

"So since you've asked why we're here.. We are here because we already know that you're the one who experimented some formulas to make Centella Asiatica an anti-wrinkling agent.. You are Dr. Seuss" Jin said

Jimin froze at the moment and his gaze diverted towards Rosé who was biting her nails guiltily.

Rosé, you just broke my trust...Jimin thought.

"So we came to ask if we could use your experiment Jimin. It's for the sake of the company" The director said

Jimin just nodded "Go ahead"

"That's it? Wah, you're so kind kiddo. We'll promise this product would be a big hit. Thank you" The director smiled widely

Jin didn't know why but at the moment he smiled as he also felt proud that his brother was actually Dr. Seuss.

"Thanks bro, we'll promise to visit you anytime for the project. But I'm afraid we can't stay here for long." Jin said as he patted his brother's back.

Then Jin and his proposal team departed.

Only Rosé was left behind.

"J-Jimin.. Look I'm sorr-..." Rosé was cut off when he pushed her aside.

"I can't believe you." Jimin's eyes got teary

"Look Jimin, I have to explain" Rosé grab ahold of Jimin's arm but he swatted it away harshly.

"Why would I listen to an untrustworthy girl like you?" Jimin's tears were falling.

"Jimin.. Please listen to me first. I did that because I was tired, if I wouldn't tell them who Dr.Seuss was then I would be involved in this project over and over again and I don't want to." Rosé tried calming Jimin now who was sobbing like a baby

Child regression I guess...Rosé thought

"Then that's a totally selfish move Rosé. I'm very disappointed" Jimin shook his head in disappointment

"But Ji-..."

"Get out"

"What?"

"I said get out!" Jimin pushed her out of the door and slammed it angrily in front of her.

Then lightning cracked.

This is the worst day ever....Rosé thought as rain started falling down.
