Chapter Two

"So listen carefully," the middle aged man with greyish hair spoke seriously to the woman in front of him. He took out a file from a drawer and sat on the table across which, the young lady was sitting.

"You have been working alone since the group disbanded and you have quite a supportive group of fans." He stated while slowly opening the file which he brought. The lady, was looking bored but was trying to hide it by frequently nodding to the words of the man.

"They want you to collaborate and do some new kind of performance that will impress them." He said and she nodded, understanding that there is something going on in his mind. It was his usual ways of making the idols agree with him, by praising them.

"You should Collab with this new artist! He is a singer and his popularity is just growing and growing nowadays." He said and put the file towards her to sign it for agreement.

She smiled and took a pen between her fingers. "You know what is good for me. You are boss here. You make arrangements with this new singer." She said quickly as she was not in a mood of talking too much today.

On usual days, she would think about it, try to search about this rapper and think if she should collab or not, but not today.

"But, Seongi! You not gonna ask about who is he or what entertainment he belongs to?" He asked when he saw her getting up from the chair.

"Nah, I trust you." She said and signed the papers quickly and closed the file. "And if you will think bad for me, it will be bad for your company as well." She said and shrugged. She was right though, she was one of the leading artists in the entertainment, they won't want her to take any wrong step in the field of music.

She picked up her bag and gave a kind smile, "Please inform, my manager about the updates. He will be returning tomorrow I guess, I hope his cold is fine." She said.

"He will be back by tomorrow. At least listen the name of this artist." He said and she already leaving by that time.

"I would like to meet him in person." And Seongi left the office.

.

"I would like to order a cheesecake." Taehyung said to the waiter.

"And you miss?" The waiter asked to Sira who was still looking at the menu.

"Maybe, a lemonade for now." She said closed the menu card and gave a small smile to the waiter. The waiter wrote the information down and smiled before leaving.

Taehyung frowned as soon as he left. "You saw! How he smiled while seeing you? He didn't even smile towards me! He always does that!" Taehyung whispered angrily.

"He did smile towards you, but your frowning face couldn't see it." Sira said and laughed.

Taehyung pouted at her reaction. Sira leaned forward and gave a quick peck to Taehyung on his lips. "Stop frowning when we are on a date." She said and smiled at his cute demeanor, which was only exposed to her and some close friends.

"We are not coming here again." He said and held her hand which was on the table.

"You said that last time too." She said while furrowing her eyebrows.

At that time, the waiter came and served him a cheesecake and her a lemonade. Taehyung took the fork quickly and tasted a bite if his cheesecake. "Their cheesecake is too irresistible." He said while licking his lips. "Oh! And by the way, I wanted to ask that what are you going to do now? Now that we have completed graduation." He asked.

Sira sipped her lemonade from the straw. "There's this Fashion institute, Fashion Institute of Seoul. I want to go there, it's been my dream." She said, with her eyes sparkling.

"Jimin is taking dad's business ahead, I want to help him." He said.

Sira nodded, "Let me go to washroom, excuse me." She said and went to washroom. Taehyung hummed and took his phone in his hands when she went.

Coincidentally, a message popped up on his phone as soon as he took it. It was from an unknown number.

Unknown: My greetings, Taehyung.

Taehyung confusedly looked at it. And asked that who was it. But instead of messages, several photos were sent to him. His eyes widened when he looked at the pictures, with several girls. It was nothing sexually intimate but every girl in the photo was a part of his dark history, the one he doesn't want to remember

Taehyung: is it u Jimin?

He interrogated, as possibly no one knew about this except Jimin or you. He was sure that you would not scare him like this, you would not even know about these many girls.

It could be Jimin, not because he has any grudge against him but because there was no one other than him, who knew this, and possibly could do this.

Unknown: u still didn't tell her, ri8?

Taehyung widened his eyes as he looked at the message. Yes, he still didn't tell Sira about it. He didn't want to tell it to her to show her how much of a cruel person he was at that time. How he used the girls Jimin had relationships with, to make Jimin suffer.

He knew that Sira didn't know the whole story. You, being a good friend, didn't tell her about the secrets, but you asked him to talk about it with Sira. But he never did.

Oh gosh! He feels dizzy inside. Somehow he knows that Sira would not misunderstand her but when he looked at the past relationships with Jimin in the past, he shuddered. How easy was it break them for him. Just a small misunderstanding and the whole relationship crashes down.

Taehyung gulped looking at the message.

Taehyung: who r u?

He asked and waited for the next message. Just then Sira came back and sat across him. He panicked for some reasons and quickly put his phone down.

"Who were you talking to?" She asked casually and sipped her lemonade.

He smiled awkwardly, "A school friend! He got my number after a long time."

She nodded and seemed to think of something. "Hey, do you want to meet my parents this Tuesday?" She asked nervously to Taehyung.

Taehyung choked on air when he heard her sentence. His eyes softened and he kept his hand softly on hers on the table. "Sira, I-I am not ready for marriag—"

"No no no no." She said and shook her both hands. "As a friend I meant, meet them as a friend. Listen the whole thing first!" She said smiled but Taehyung could see a tint sadness in her eyes.

"This Tuesday then." He said and smiled

Just then his phone buzzed, indicating that message came.

Unknown: Want to know abt me? Meet me on Tuesday.
