Love Me Now?

Chapter 40

SEULHI'S POV

______________________________

To: Chiminie

I'm sorry, Jimin. 😞

______________________________

I pressed the send button, sighing with a feeling full of guilt - I never thought Jimin would casually agree with Jungkook and I never thought he would still manage to smile even after Jungkook technically snatched his 'date' away.

And I believed he was okay with that.

But, not until Jungkook pulled me away by the wrist. Not until I caught Jimin's wide smile slowly faded away, and not until I saw the way he rubbed the back of his nape. That small gestures of him told me a different things, and that thing made me to jump into another conclusion - He was not okay. He did that because of Jungkook. Because Jungkook has more right to claim me his date than he himself. And because Jungkook is his best friend.

Nah its okay. Jungkook have the right to bring you there, but most importantly, don't forget to save a dance for me. 😆

I felt so bad for him. Especially when Jungkook just pulled me away from him like that, not even giving me a second to say something to Jimin or at least apologise.

"Seatbelt."

I slightly jerked when Jungkook out of nowhere spoke beside me, interrupting me who lost in my own world and what a good day, my head collided with the window.

Instantly, I pulled my face into a scowl and rubbed my head as I reached for the seatbelt, pulling it across my body and buckled it.

He spent me a brief glance and soon, started the engine of his car before drove off to God knows where.

Don't ask me if the situation between us are awkward or not because it was very VEry VERY AWKWARD that I've literally no words to explain!! - The only things I heard was the sound of the car engine and the new rhythm he created spontaneously with his fingers which I assumed was one of his effort to decrease the awkwardness that was heating up the air between us.

And one things that annoyed me the most was the multiple times he cleared his throat and straightened his body - as if he had something to say but decided to keep that caged in his mouth and let the atmosphere between us grew worsen than before.

Just freaking let that freaking words out of your freaking mouth you freaking dumbass! Can't you feel how tense the atmosphere between us is!? Just freaking lower your ego and say that out or I'll freaking choke you aliv-

"I'm sorry."

"Hm..." I answered out of nowhere. "Wait, what!?"

"I'm not going to repeat that." He stated with a straight tone and I scoffed loudly, rolling my eyes to show him how annoyed I was with him. I then hugged myself and turned my head to face the window - which was better than seeing his ugly face. Well, I lied about that but still, his attitude made that became a truth.
