Jennie's P.O.V.

Later afternoon...

I went to my room quickly to not get spotted by Taeh. I was about to close the door when Taehyung caught me and pinned me to the door. "I really hate you... " I look at him , try to look if there is that look of loving me not as a sister? But no, not any . He released me and I went to my bed , covered myself to the sheets but he opens it and, "Will you really just avoid all the time?"

My world had stopped. It's like I've hurt him but he seemed happy. Then he starts tickling me .... "stop!"

"Tell me why are you avoiding me?" Cause you just don't know how you played with my heart last night. He still doesn't stop... I am never gonna tell him . He doesn't feel the same and he'll think of me badly if he knew...

He stops then decides to pinch my cheeks... "This chubby cheeks .. I'll miss these.."wait, what?" miss what?

"Oh nothing. ." He continued to pinch me real hard.. "ahh!Taehyung~ah! " he still continues to pinch my cheeks "stoooppp it.." jisoo unnie then came in, her face both sad and happy and i can't explain well what really she is feeling. What could be wrong?

She then came near him, "Brother.. my long lost brother..." just then jisoo unnie hugged him for god knows how long. "what does this mean?" I was confused and left out. Jisoo is also my sibling? But I thought Taeh had only one sister which is me?

The door suddenly opened and a familiar figure came in, "Jennie, Taehyung is not your brother. Jisoo is his real sister...." Wait what? I could not believe what she just said and its like my world's tearing apart.. tears run down my cheeks after hearing my mom...

The moment my mother said those words, I couldn't believe all 9 years of my life was a lie and I couldn't believe it.

"Jennie, were very sorry. We thought you were our child . But we got fooled.. I'm really sorry"

"What- how did this happen?"

FLASHBACK

December 27, 2009

"Mr. Kim, I am sorry but we cannot find your child." The investigator said. "You must! Do what you can and don't go back without any news of my daughter."

"He's too much. If we cannot find his daughter, we'll have someone to act as his daughter. Let's wait for a week.."

January 10, 2010

"Han Jisoo?" The investigator went to Kwan Soo's House. " Come inside." A girl welcomed him. "I'm Han Kwan Soo, Han Jisoo's mother. I tell you what. Don't tell them about Jisoo. If you won't, I'll give you cash... she's my child and they cannot have her back."

"But mam, who will pretend as her? "

"You see that poor young smart lady out there? Make her his daughter."

"B-but mam-" sh cuts the sentence and hands a handfull of money.

Dna tests came...

Han Kwan Soo secretly paid every tests we got to we'll prove Jennie is the real daughter. And her daughter will be kept.

END OF FLASHBACK

"Jennie..."

"Sorry for those times I treated you badly Jennie. I felt that you really weren't my daughter and I don't want to be much believing. I knew you weren't our daughter so I still continue to search. I left you all and didn't tell my husband the real purpose I flew away... I am sorry I couldn't be a good mother. I knew you live you're life alone by yourself, and how you wanted to have a family. I am so sorry I cannot try to be in comfort. If you're my child or not I still didn't try to be a good adult.. I am so sorry."

"Sorry? Just now? Now that you have found your real daughter you feel sorry. Now you found her you felt pity of me. Don't you not feel how hard it is for me? I live my whole life in a lie, living all my life by myself. I thought I found my family but my mother wasn't conviced I am her daughter. She didn't try to be at least her friend, or a parent even if its not as a mother. She just continued to find her so called lost daughter and finally.... She found the real daughter. And now, she'll feel pity after it already all happened? Are you not even listening to yourself? Do you even know what I am saying? It wasn't my fault you lost her. It wasn't my fault I became your daughter. But you blamed it all on me. I don't understand what kind of person are you... are you even human.?!" I couldn't help but tear and I exit the dorm ... I shut the door hard, running to nowhere not caring If someone will recognise me...

.........................

Taehyung's P.O.V.

Jisoo kept hugging me for so long I couldn't breathe. I was happy I met my real sister but I was not happy of seeing Jennie cry.

After she yelled at mother, she ran out the door and slammed it. I got out of Jisoo's grip and ran after her.

"Jennie! " I call her name but she doesn't listen . She runs more faster but she's not fast enough. We're now in the middle of the streets . I caught her and held her tight. I pulled her in a dark corner or somebody might notice us. "Jennie. Look up. Jennie, look at me." She looked at me for a moment and tears started to ran down to her cheeks.

"Taehyung, let's pretend we don't know each other. Let's pretend those times didn't happen . Let's pretend we didn't see each other. Let's forget every memory we had. " she starts. Jennie, why do you always do this? Why do you constantly shut me out of your life?

"Is that what you really want?" I couldn't take it anymore, I started to let out a tear although how hard I try to hold back my sobs..

"Yes." She couldn't look at me, she couldn't face me. She is lying, I know she would never want this. Jennie...

"Why do you always do this to me Jen.. Do you always have shut me out? Can't you let me in your life? Yes, we are not related by blood, but Jen, all those memories we shared, can't they be enough for us to be still together?"

"Taehyung please..."

"Jen, I can't be at least a friend, a brother by heart? Will you just keep all this to yourself? We've been together for years Jen. When will you ever trust me? Will you?"

"But Taeh- you should be celebrating your sister's comeback. Go now! Leave me here."

"No I won't. You will come with me.." I carried her with me through the street and I don't care if they'll notice us. The rain started pouring and I went to a shelter fast. But she's not letting me. "You'll get sick."

"It's better than being healthy for nothing." I didn't and her and we both stood there in the middle of the rain. No one noticed us but it's still dangerous. And she might catch a cold..

"Look at me then, tell me. Tell me that you don't need me in your life anymore. Yell at me, say it Jen, look me in the eyes... "

Without any hesitation, she lifts her head up, stared at me and told me those words, words that will signify our last goodbyes... "Yes, I don't need you, I don't want you in my life. I don't want to see you ever again!" She didn't look down, she looked at me with both eyes, but her eyes didn't agree with what she just yelled. She was telling me something else. And I know those words, we're never true.

"Taeh, leave me now... " she said both begging and sobbing. "Fine Jen.. If that's what you want, I'll give it to you..." i bunched my fingers into a fist, my mind spinning round and I was out of control. She turned against my direction and before she could walk away, I pulled her close too me, and without hesitation, put my lips to hers.

Her eyes tear as she kisses me back. Standing there, kissing each other. We stopped and breathe for air. We stared for a moment, hoping she would change her mind...

"Goodbye then, Jennie.."

She smiled weakly saying those words, "Goodbye..." I turned my back and left her. She wanted it. So I gave her the chance...

---------
Should it be goodbye for them?
