2nd person's POV

You walk slowly down the hallway, your entire body numb. You can't believe what just happened. More so, you can't stop thinking about why... what could you possibly have done that led him to the extreme of dismissing you from the company?

You hold in all of your emotion. You walk to your desk and gather your things. You hear Hoseok calling out to you, but you don't reply. You know that if you try to speak then all of your tears that you're so barely holding in will come flowing out like a waterfall. Ignoring everything and everyone, you step into the lift and make your descent to the ground floor. Walking right past the sleeping Yoongi at reception, you walk briskly out of the building and all the way down the street to the bus stop.

The entire ride you manage to keep your composure, and it's only when you set foot inside your house that you finally allow yourself to vent all the frustration and sadness that has been pent up inside of you ever since you left Jungkook's office.

As soon as you close the front door behind you, you throw your keys and bag onto the floor. Your back slowly sliding down the door, you cover your face with your hands and begin to sob uncontrollably.

Jungkook's POV

My elbows on the desk, I run my hands through my black hair. What have I done? Even though I'm heartbroken, I shouldn't have done that. I acted purely upon my own selfishness; yet another reason why Y/N is better off without me.

At least it's easier this way.

At least I won't have to see them every day, torturing me every time they give each other a loving smile or brush hands as they walk by. But as hard as I try to comfort myself, I can't help knowing that I've done something truly despicable.

As for Jimin... I don't know what I'll do about him. I'm not going to fire him. I know it isn't his fault; he's just in love the same as I am. But at the same time, I'm scared I'll never be able to see him the same way again. Just as we managed to finally patch up our broken friendship, suddenly I don't think I can even look at him without bursting with anger and jealousy.

That's how much she means to me now.

I slap myself in the face a couple of times. She's making me weak, and I don't like it. I have to accept this; Y/N is with Jimin now, and it's time to get over her.

I look down at my files and suddenly I see something printed in the corner of a sheet; a name that belongs to a young girl who works on this floor. I remember she was quite attractive and kept giving me suggestive looks whenever I passed her by, but I had always ignored her and showed no interest, assuming she was just like the other thirsty girls who had tried to hook up with me.

Up until now. I need a distraction, I need help to get over Y/N. And this girl seems like a suitable candidate.

Hoseok's POV

I watched as Y/N scurried to the lift with her belongings, ignoring the sound of my voice calling her name. I didn't understand why she was leaving... her shift wasn't even over yet.

I ran to the lift so I could confront her, but it was too late; the doors had closed.

I pressed the button of the other lift, tapping my foot impatiently as I waited for it to open. Hopping inside, I smashed the "ground floor" button. But when I arrived at the reception, there was no sign of Y/N.
