- FAKE LOVE, Love Yourself: Tear

t a e h y u n g

The ice cream parlour was the last place I expected Woo Dohwan to show up at, which was why I made Jennie bring me there. Apparently, luck was not on my side.

Standing right in front of us in all his glory, was the actor himself.

"Oh... Dohwan-oppa, what are you doing here?" Jennie stuttered, eyes blinking rapidly as if she couldn't believe the sight in front of her. My stomach lurched with an uncomfortable feeling hearing the way she addressed him, but years of acting experience hadn't been for anything. My face remained cool as a cucumber as I watched him with a cool gaze.

"Sorry Jen," my heart lurched again as he replied coolly, "I didn't know you were on a date." his eyes remained fixated on Jennie, not giving me a glance.

"Is there a reason why you're here?"

"Nothing interesting, just wanted some ice cream, that's all. I guess it's fate that brought us together." 

"Well, I guess so. It was nice seeing you here, Dohwan. I'll text you, okay?" she said, seeming to wrap the tense conversation up. 

"Wait, I actually need to talk to you. In person. Could you give us some time alone?" he interrupted, looking at me with a raised eyebrow. 

My jaw dropped for a brief moment, but I quickly regained posture and nodded, brisk-walking away, turning around for a millisecond just to see Dohwan taking my place. 

I thought that by sitting on the barstool on the opposite end of the ice cream parlour, I wouldn't be able to hear anything, but it was a small parlour, and there was no one around except for the three of us. And so, as much as I tried to distract myself, I couldn't not hear what they were talking about.

"So, have you looked through the photo album?"

"Dohwan, I don't think this is an appropriate time to talk about this."

"Why? Because your boyfriend is here? Isn't it all fake?"

"What? N - no. It isn't."

"Come on, Jennie. I haven't been in this industry for long, but I'm smart enough to see what your companies are doing. News got out that it was a fake relationship, so YG and Bighit decided to further strengthen your relationship by moving you guys in together. It's as simple as that. I know you well enough to know that a few dates and dinners together wouldn't prompt you to move in with that guy."

"Dohwan, please, shut your mouth. 'That guy' has a name, and his name is Kim Taehyung. You should address him properly because what we have is real. I messed up once and I won't mess up again. Our relationship isn't fake. Our relationship isn't just for the cameras. Our relationship is real."
