|| Your POV ||

I'm still walking on air after last night's event. I had work today and I had to finish up designs of structures of the new building. "Done!"

I looked at my clock, "Lunch time~~!"
I sang. Tae texted me that he wanted to have lunch with me.

He must be outside now.

I received a text again and suspected it was Taehyung. But it wasn't.

Jimin:
Y/n congratulations... I'm happy you're finally happy.

This sent me a bit of guilty feeling. right, I didn't tell him yet.

Me:
I'm sorry for not telling you earlier, Jimin. And thank you. I hope you find someone who loves you truly as well :)

I sent the message and got no reply. I proceeded outside and saw Tae's car already.

I went in and he pecked my cheek which resulted to crimson red blush on my cheek. He chuckled and started the engine.

On our way to the restaurant, I told him about Jimin's text a moment ago.

"What if you meet up with him?" I was shocked at Taehyung's words.

"And what do I tell him?" I asked, starting to get nervous.

"Tell him you already found someone else and wish him the best."
He said as if it was an easy thing to do.

"*sigh* but it's not easy, Tae."

He looked at me, "I know. But it'll be harder if he just lock himself in his shield and not face the reality."

"Fine, when though?"

"Let's make a turn here, I saw him walking going to his apartment on my way to your work."

I nodded and took a deep breath. This didn't help. I still felt nervous. I suddenly felt something warm on my hand, I looked at it and it was tae's hand on mine. This soothed me and his smile gave me courage. So I smiled back, reassuring him.

"We're here"

I looked up at the apartment and took a deep breath. I let go of Taehyung's hold and opened the car door.

I went inside and asked for Jimin's room number. Once I got it, I went straight to his door without any distractions.

He opened the door and revealed a smiling Jimin. I hugged his strong figure and he hugged back. He let go of the hug, "I knew you'd come."

I went inside his apartment and we just sat there awkwardly because I don't know how to start. "Are you ok?"
It was all I could ask at the moment.

"I was not, honestly. But I got over it already. You know I'm a positive person, I always look at the bright side"

"How can I trust these words?" I raised an eyebrow.

He chuckled and he told me that he actually found someone else. He told me he met her a few months ago and they became close friends. She confessed to him a week ago and he didn't know that he felt the same way because during that time, he was too focused on me. He realized who he really loves.

It's funny how his story is very similar to mine and Taehyung's.

He showed me a picture of her and she was really beautiful. I congratulated him and he did to me as well.

I sighed in relief that he is actually happy.

I went back to Taehyung's car, feeling satisfied.
