#11 - i'm here for you

"Y/N, please eat." Jimin said through her door. He was angry at Jungkook for what he had done to her last night.

"I'm not hungry. Leave me alone."

Jimin sighed. He had gone through this many times before, but he usually moved on a few days later. He knew that Y/N had never gone through this and it would be the most painful for her.

Taehyung peeked through the room he was in. He was awoken by the continuous knocking of Jimin on the door of Y/N.

His hair was still a mess. He hadn't brushed his teeth yet. His pajamas were wrinkled.

"What's going on?"

Jimin was surprised by the raspy and deep voice coming from his room. Knowing it was Taehyung, he replied, "Y/N doesn't want to eat."

Taehyung sighed. Even if he had just gotten up, he already knew why Y/N was being like this. But still, he didn't understand what went wrong.

He quickly brushed his teeth so that he could go to Y/N's room. He also fixed his hair to look better.

He left Jimin's room and knocked on Y/N's door. "Y/N, it's me, Taehyung."

To their surprise, Y/N opened the door. She was a complete mess. Hair strands were sticking to her face. Tears were still streaming down her face. She had red marks around her eyes.

"May I come in?" Taehyung asked frightfully.

Y/N nodded, leaving the door open for him to enter. Jimin shoved the breakfast tray into Taehyung's arms. "Let her eat. She won't listen to me."

Jimin stomped back to his room. She listens to a stranger, who barely knows her, and doesn't listen to me? Her brother for a long time?

Taehyung came inside Y/N's room. He remembered the first time he came into this room, it was all neat and everything was in place.

Now, the books, that used to be placed neatly in the bookshelf, were now scattered all around the place. Photos of Jungkook and her were ripped apart. (Taehyung hoped that Jimin had duplicates)

"Did you manage to sleep last night?" Taehyung asked Y/N, who was just sitting on her bed.

She shook her head. "I don't think anyone would be able to sleep, if they were in my shoes, since the pain is unbearable."

Taehyung sighed. He had never felt this which made it hard for him to give her an advice.

"Why not eat?"

"No, I'd rather starve myself. I'll probably get thinner, maybe that's why Jungkook doesn't like me. I don't fit his ideal weight for a girl."

Taehyung sighed in frustration. He didn't seeing her like this. Even if this was the first time he had seen her like this, he already felt terrible.

"Stop saying Jungkook's name."

Y/N looked at him with a confused look. "What do you mean?"

"Just stop saying his name. It's pointless to try to move on if you just keep replaying the scene inside your head. You won't be able to move on if you're like that."

Y/N thought about it for a moment and felt tears stream down her eyes. "You don't understand my pain, Taehyung. I'm sorry if you hate seeing me like this. But you know what, it's pointless to move on. The only thing I can think about right now is what happened last night."

She sniffles a few times while Taehyung was trying to come up with an advice. He wanted to help her. He needed her to move on.

"Then if you can't move on for yourself, can't you do it for your brother and I?"

Y/N looked at Taehyung's caring eyes. He was too patient and kind for her. She didn't let her brother in, knowing she would earn a lecture.

"Taehyung, do you know one thing you have and Jungkook doesn't?"

He wanted to sigh, but he had to be patient with her. He shook his head.

"Both if you are playful and funny, but you're more patient and kind than Jungkook."

Taehyung's heart skipped a beat. He could feel his face flush. He looked down, hoping she wouldn't notice.

Taehyung rushed to where the sound came from. He was about to pick her phone up when she said, "Please don't answer it. That might be Jungkook."

Taehyung didn't follow what she commanded and looked at the message.

My Little Tofu Friend
"I didn't see you last night. Where were you?"

Taehyung was confused by the name since a tofu couldn't possibly text a human. He looked at Y/N oddly then back at the phone. Either that or Y/N was going crazy to make friends with a tofu.

"Uh...Do you have a friend that's named 'My Little Tofu Friend'?"

Y/N thought about it for a moment then her eyes widened. "Dahyun!"

She snatched the phone from Taehyung and read the message. She started to whine after reading the message.

"Why did I have to confess last night? I could've just gone to Dahyun and everything would've been alright!"

She slapped her head using the pillow she had in hand. Taehyung just watched her throw a little tantrum, resisting the urge to laugh.

Y/N texted back:

#Y/N'sProperty
"I'm sorry, I tried to confess to Jungkook, but it failed."

Taehyung peeked on what she had sent. He pouted a little. She still hadn't told him the whole story.

"Y/N, what did happen last night?"

She looked at Taehyung with gleaming eyes. "I was about to confess to Jungkook when I saw him with his ex, whom he's still in good terms with. He didn't completely reject me, but his arm around her waist made...made me jealous."

Taehyung sighed. She panicked. She assumed. She overthought. He didn't completely reject her. But why was he with his ex, his hand even around her waist?

My Little Tofu Friend
"Oh, I'm sorry about that. You want to meet up? Come to my place, I'll comfort you with a movie marathon and chocolate ice cream."

Y/N had a small smile on her face. Taehyung was happy to see her smile, even if it wasn't as bright as her usual smile.

"Do you feel better now?"

Y/N looked at Taehyung with a bigger smile. "Thank you for helping me. You're too nice, stop it."

Taehyung smiled at her. "I'm here for you, no matter what happens in your life, I'll always have your back in everything you do."

Y/N felt her cheeks blush a little. She didn't understand why, but she was just blushing. Why am I blushing?

"You should go to your friend, just make sure she's actually a human being, not a tofu."

Y/N tried to stifle a laugh, but she couldn't help it. Taehyung smiled as he saw her laugh at his pun. He was used to seeing her with a smile.

"Stop weeping over Jungkook, I'm not telling you to move on right here, right now, but you should start with not crying. I'm sure you'll feel much better."

Taehyung left her room feeling accomplished. He was able to make her laugh when she was having a hard time.

Y/N was still blushing with what he said. She appreciated his support and patience, but she couldn't understand why she was blushing.
