"Ah, finally."

You and Youngjae take a seat in a booth towards the back of the diner.

"Order anything you'd like," he says while scanning his menu.

You smile faintly at him and look at your menu.

"I think I'm going to get 4 pancakes, eggs, bacon, and toast. What about you?" He says while setting his menu down and looking at you.

"Uhm, probably a breakfast bagel and coffee."

He looks at you in disbelief.

"That's it??"

You nod your head and flag down a waitress.

A short woman with long black hair jogs over and takes your orders.

"Are you two ready to order?" She says while smiling.

Youngjae nods. "Yes, for me, I'll have four pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast. And for her, she'll be having a breakfast bagel and coffee."

The waitress stops writing.

"That's it??"

Youngjae laughs. "That's the same thing I said! I told her she could order as much as she wants and she chooses a simple bagel and coffee!"

The waitress laughs along with him.

You felt small. Like they were making fun of you.

You knew he just wanted to get you to cheer up but something in you snapped.

You were overwhelmed with feelings—breaking up with Yanan, living with Yoongi, missing Gigi—and just wanted to cry to yourself.

You got up from where you were sitting and walked towards the exit.

"Y/N, where are you going?!" You hear him yell from the booth.

You ignore his words and run out of the diner, running to park that wasn't too far from it.

You sat down on the nearest bench and cried.

You slid your knees up to your chest and buried your face into them.

You heard footsteps approaching you but you were too busy crying to check who it was.

"Y/N, is that you?" You heard someone familiar say.

"Y/N, it's Jungkook! Please answer me!" He cried as he crouched down in front of you.

"Ju–Jungkook...?" You said, your breath hitching.

"Noona, it's me. Is everything okay?" He says softly.

You shake your head no.

"C'mon, let me take you to Jin's place. Maybe he'll know what to do," he says while extending his hand out for you.

You stand up and grab his hand.

He looks at you, such sorrow in his eyes.

"It'll be okay, noona. I hate seeing you upset because then it makes me upset," he says while wiping away your tears.

You and him walk back to his car, he waits until your seated to close the door.

You stretch out on the backseat and quietly to yourself.

You stood Youngjae up on what was supposed to be your first official date.

Just imagining how hurt he must be made you feel even worse.

"Don't cry, noona..." Jungkook whispers while looking at you through the rear-view mirror, a single tear sliding down his cheek.

You ended up crying yourself to sleep.
