JIMIN'S POV

I guess you can never escape fate, Mina. I was astounded when Mina caught Hyorin noona's bouquet. It made me only think of an idea which is her arrangement. I can still remember her thoughts when we talked about her marriage two years ago. I can tell how she hated the idea of being married off to a stranger just because of business.

We met gazes, but she looked away first. She usually does that whenever our eyes meet and I don't know what to feel. It hurts, slightly. I don't want to be mad at her for hurting me because I believe that I deserve every pain that I caused her. It's my karma.

"Okay, Ms. Myoui caught the bouquet! Congratulations!" They started cheering Mina. I noticed the guy beside her, carrying a baby. It's the same man whom I saw at the grocery store the other day. I don't know if they're relatives, but I thought of them as a couple. He whispered something to her which made her frown. "Guests, you may proceed to the reception." The announcer said. They started walking towards the door and Mina passed by me.

"Congratulations," I told her. She looked at me quickly and just nodded. I breathed deeply and held my chest. "It hurts even though I don't have the right to be." I whispered. I followed the other guests and when I was finally outside the church, I heard a familiar voice. I looked for the owner of that voice and saw her. She seemed hurt, pained.

I was concerned when I saw Sana. Her eyes are swollen and her nose and cheeks are red from crying. "God, what happened to you?" I cupped her cheeks and then she hugged me and cried on my chest. Actually, I'm not mad at her for leaving me. She didn't tell me any reasons why she did, but through some people, I knew why. She came back to her ex-boyfriend and that's the least information that I have about her right now.

"T-Tae..." she sobbed. "...I-I caught him cheating." She was talking about her boyfriend, idiot. "It hurts so much, Chim."

"Hey, hey, hey," I whispered and caressed her back. Her hug tightened. I can feel that she wants someone to be with her until she becomes okay. "Don't cry anymore. You don't deserve him. You shouldn't have gone back to him. You just hurted yourself."

"I-I don't know what to do anymore, Jimin. I've lost you, lost him...and I lost myself." I cupped her face and stared at her. Those honey eyes that I once fell in love with are filled by tears. I wiped her tears using my handkerchief and sighed.

"You still have me, okay?" I caressed her head. "Let's get you home."

MINA'S POV

"Oh? Jimin is going with that girl?" Joshua seemed surprised when he took Sana inside his car. "He won't go to the reception then."

"It's so funny to see him like this," I chuckled. "He's engaged, yet he's still in touch with his ex-girlfriend. Jimin and his harem."

"You're part of that harem, Mina." He jested.

"Nope."

"You fell for him remember?"

"I almost did, Hong." I corrected him. He just hummed and drove to the reception.

Catching the bouquet... I sighed. I actually don't want to believe at that kind of tradition. Catching bouquets will signify your wedding? Psh. That's pure bullshit. It's just a superstition; a belief. It's not something that people should believe at easily without evidence.

"What are you thinking of besides how handsome am I?"

I looked at him with a pokerface, "Your jokes are not funny."
