6 months later...

-MINA'S HOUSE-

Mina puts the plates she just washes to the rack. She then takes a wiping cloth and wipes around the sink and the stove. She walks to the living room after she was done cleaning the kitchen.

Mina frowns her forehead when she sees Jimin still relaxing and lying on the sofa, playing with his phone. "Aigoo oppa, when are you going?" She approaches him.

"Ugh." Jimin groans and turns his body. "I didn't meet you for two days, can't I stay a bit longer here." He gets up and sits on the sofa. He just lands in Korea a few hours ago.

Mina sits beside him. She brushes his hair gently with her hand. "I do miss you too, oppa. But harabeoji waited for you at home. It must be important."

Jimin sigh. He thinks the same things but he misses his girlfriend so much. Hence, here he is at his girlfriend house, though his grandfather orders him to meet once he comes back from the business trip to Taiwan. "Arasso..." Jimin wraps his hands around Mina's waist. "Let go out for a date tomorrow then."

Mina pinches Jimin's nose with her finger. "Didn't I tell you my parents come tomorrow? I might be busy with them tomorrow."

Jimin sighs and pouted his mouth. "So I can only see you on Sunday?"

"Yes, Mr. Jimin." Mina chuckles. "And don't forget with our family meeting on that Sunday too."

"Of course I remember." A warm smiles form on Jimin lips.

"So...Can you go now?" Mina pulls Jimin to get up.

"Okay-okay, I'm going." Jimin in pretends to sulk. He gets up but his hands stay on Mina's waist. He pulls her closer. "Give me a kiss before I go."

"Geez... I don't want." Mina acting coy.

"Heol... You chase me away and now you don't want to kiss me?" Jimin pouted his mouth pretend to be sad.

Mina giggles. She then gives a peck on Jimin's lips.

That little actions from Mina make Jimin's heart even more fluttering. He moves his hand behind Mina's head and starts to kiss her on the forehead, cheek, and lips.

Mina smiles. She feels so contained by just looking through his eyes. She can feel his love and sincerity. She moves closer to him and puts her lips against his. They share a warm and passionate kiss for a minute.

Mina ends the kiss. "Geez... Stop seduce me oppa. You still have to go." She pretends to be annoyed.

"Yeah~ Who makes a move first and kiss me passionately on the lips first?"Jimin teases her.

Mina laughs. "Who?" Mina pretending. "Huh, harabeoji must wait for you too long oppa. You better go now."

"It looks like you cannot wait for me to go. Okay-okay. I'm going, I'm going."

Mina just laugh. She does want him to stay longer but Mr. Jin is waiting for him.

Both of them then walk together to the front door.

Outside the house, someone familiar is sitting on the staircase in front of the house. She turns when Jimin and Mina come out of the house. She looks at them. Sadness is clearly writing on her face.

"Jennie?" Words come out from Mina's mouth. She is surprised to see Jennie in front of her house.

"H-Hi.." Jennie weakly greets them.

Normally, Mina will feel annoys if she sees Jennie. But not today. She can see a sorrowful and depressing feeling behind that calm face.

"Oppa, you can go now. Tell me when you reach there." Mina tells Jimin to just go as she can feel Jennie needs to talk to her.

"Are you sure you want me to go now?" Jimin whispers. He worries if Jennie coming to pick a fight with his girlfriend.

"It's okay, oppa. You can go now. Please." Mina smiles to assure him.

Jimin takes a quick glance at Jennie. Like Mina, he can feel Jennie is sad too. "Okay. Anything just calls me." He then said. "See you on Sunday." He kisses her forehead before he walks to his car.

"It looks like you are so happy now." Jennies said when Jimin left.

Mina just smiles. "Why are you coming here?" She asks.

"I... don't know," Jennie said slowly. "I just feel so sad. No matter how much I tried to be strong, my heart still hurt... And that moment I start to realize you are the only one I seek and makes me feel better when I feel like this before. So I come." Jennie lifts her head and looks at Mina. Her eyes start fills with tears, full of regrets.

Mina sighs. She knows Jennie for almost 10 years. She knows when she feels happy or sad. And now she know Jennie really feels so sad. She puts sits beside her. Gently, she pulls her into her arms and hugs her. At that moment Jennie starts to burst into tears.

"I think you already know me and Jiyoung oppa already broke up. It really makes me feel lost this few months. He does not even want to meet me. I miss him, Mina. I just want him to talk to me, at least. Maybe this is my punishment for betrayed you." Jennie spits out what makes her feels so dejected. She cries and cries, tells her sadness to Mina.

Mina beside Jennie just hears her express her feeling. She rubs her back to calm her down.

"I'm sorry Mina. I should know you and Jiyoung love each other so much. It was my fault. I was the one who comes and seduces him. And I should realize sooner he never loves me likes he loves you. He loved you so much and he still loves you." Jennie pulls away her body from Mina embrace. "Can you get back with him again? At least he won't hate me so much if you and him together again. Uh?" She request. She is not in the right state of mind.  She feels guilty for separating them.

Mina puts her both hands on Jennie's shoulders. She shakes her head. "I can't. I moved on and happily live my life now, Jennie." She said calmly. No, it was not only you. It was Jiyoung oppa his fault too. He didn't know what he really wants and end up hurting me and you. And... It was my fault too. I didn't think of your feeling. I should know better... I'm sorry." She look down. A few moments later she look back at Jennie . "I will get married with Jimin soon, Jennie. This is what I want and this is what makes me happy now. So don't blame yourself and feel guilty anymore. I am happy now. I forgive you. So please... Please be happy too."

The tears flow on Jennie's cheek flows faster. She feels touch. She then hugs Mina tightly. "I'm sorry, Mina. I'm sorry. I hurt you so much but you still good to me and forgive me." She cries.

Mina rubs Jennie back. "Holdings grudge will only make us bitter and forgiving will set us free. Let forget the bitter past and live happily now." She whispers.
