The Two of Us

Chapter 2: Beyond My Reach (Jin's POV)

Three years had passed and Luna and me are still together, as friends though and as guardian / doctor. This is my fate for loving someone who can never love me back.

I was on the ground floor of her office building. It was spacious and grand. Many people were going in and out of the building. I patiently waited for her until I spotted her walking out of the elevator. She was wearing a black knee-length dress and black high-heeled shoes. I hated her dress as it showed the curves of her body. Yes, she was sexy and beautiful and it made me jealous when someone started flirting with her. However, I was proud that she wore the clothes that she loved and made herself stunning. "Luna!" I called out to the woman with long silky black hair.

"Hey Jin!" She exclaimed as she ran towards me. She hugged me tight and I kissed her forehead. "How's work?" I asked as I handed to her a bouquet of blue roses. "Oh, Jin you're so sweet. Thank you." She smelled the flowers. I could not help but gawk at her. "Regarding my first day at work, I felt like I belong there. All the people are nice especially my boss." She was smiling and carefree. I was glad that she finally got the life that she always wanted despite all the despair she went through. I wrapped my left hand on her shoulder. "Let's celebrate then." I drove towards the Racines Restaurant. It was one of the finest restaurants in Singapore, which also served health-conscious dishes. I went to the valet parking and gave the keys to the valet. I put my coat on her, as I knew she would get easily cold.

Once we arrived, the servers assisted us to our table and while were ordering our food. We talked about almost everything while having our dinner. Except, for that topic. Yes, we always avoided Yoongi as one of our topics. She still maintained communications with JK, Hobi and Jimin, which was totally fine. She still visits her therapist which is Namjoon. It was nice to see her smiling and being herself again. I had always longed for this day. I will do everything for your sake. That is how much I love you. However, I know I can never replace him in her heart.

We were on the rooftop of the Hotel and there were candles lit and red, white and blue roses. We sat on a table near the barrier of the rooftop. "Luna." I held her hands firmly. "We've been together for more than three years here and I was thinking if, somehow." I took a deep breath. This is a do or die. My last attempt to make you mine. "If we can, you know, somehow take our relationship to another level." I looked into her eyes while saying those words. Upon hearing them, she looked away. "Jin." She started and there was an unbearable silence lingered. "I'm sorry. You know it will always be Yoongi." With that, I knew she has not moved on from Yoongi. "I am the only one who fell in love so don't pay attention. It wasn't your fault so do not feel guilty." I told her sincerely. I must accept and endure the pain, as this is my fate. I guess a miracle will never happen after all you are someone that can never be mine. I held back the tears that were urging to escape my eyes. "Loving you taught me some lessons in life." I sniffed trying to prevent the tears from falling while smiling. "It was the biggest reward as I knew I was capable of loving someone that much and it was the most worthy reason for my sacrifices." Tears began falling uncontrollably. "Thank you for teaching me these important lessons." I smiled thru my tears. She was also crying. I knew it was hard for her, too, to see me in this miserable state after all we have been through. "You are my first love, my blue rose." I continued. "Though I knew I need to let you go as you can never love me, I am still hoping that one day you will learn to love me back." With that, I get up on my seat and left the area.

Tears cloud my eyes with my heart shattered into a million pieces. Will I be able to move on from this heartbreak?
