" HEOL! DAEBAK! ", Seulgi gasped as she look at her phone.

" Smooth ", Jimin snorted afterward.

Irene and Rowoon turned to look at each other shrugging their shoulder, clueless.

" Guys ! Look at this! ", Seulgi facing her phone screen towards Irene and Rowoon.

Irene widened her eyes, hand covering her mouth before she gasped in shocked.

" Ew! Cringe ! ", she retort. Irene took the phone from Seulgi's hand as she wanted to look closer on the picture.

" Did they just had a couple photoshoot or what? This picture is too hd to be secretly taken LOL. ", she commented as she zoomed in the picture.

" I know right. It's look like they intentionally do that in front of a camera pfftt but it came out good. Anyway, that's not the point. The main point here is that...are they now officially dating? ", Seulgi whispered the last sentence but it loud enough for them to hear her. The three of them shrugged their shoulder.

" Actually, to be honest, I'm a bit suprised to see this side of Jisoo. I'd never thought she's that kind of brave girl who will step up on her game. I mean look at Taehyung. He seems like he wasn't expecting the kiss. ", Jimin spoke as he put Seulgi's phone at the center of the table so all of them could see the picture together. He zoomed in to Taehyung's face with his fingers.

" I know right. I think Jisoo was the one who confessed. ", Seulgi added.

" Aish. Why would we talk about them? It's not really important though. ", Irene turn off the screen right away.

She turned to look at Rowoon who does not say a word.

" Rowoon-sshi? You've been so quiet. Are you okay? ", Irene tapped on his shoulder making Rowoon got back to his sense as he was in his deep thought just now.

" Huh? What did you say? ", he stuttered.

" Are you okay? ", she repeated.

" Ouh. Yes yes I'm okay. I just got distracted about something else just now. Sorry. ", he let out a fake chuckles. Irene just nod understood but not gonna lie, Irene could feel something fishy about Rowoon.

' Ah! Don't tell me... he likes Taehyung?? Heol ! ', Irene's eyes widened at her stupid nonsense thought.

Irene has been noticing after all this time that Rowoon always took a quick glance at Taehyung. Sometimes, he will secretly 'admiring' him from afar. How his lips formed a smile whenever he gets to sit next to him.

' It does make sense now. Aigoo~ what a waste ', she secretly giggled at herself.

The picture of Taehyung and Jisoo has been shared literally to everywhere and people started to gossip about them.

Irene went to the restroom for a while to finish her business. She was about to walked out of the cubicle but halted when she heard someone were mentioning her name.

" I was kinda disappointed though ", one of the girl said to her friend.

" Me too! I've been shipping Irene and Taehyung ever since the beginning! But now he end up with someone else but not Irene? Heol! This is so disappointing. ", she blabbered while washing her hand.

" I know right. I think Irene suit him better. Although I always saw them arguing with each other most of the time but I find it cute. They could become a great couple in our campus. Herh~ ", the other girl added.

" My TaeRene ship already sinking ! Why~ ", she cried.

Soon, Irene couldn't hear their voice anymore so she assumed they already left. She slowly pulled the door opened and stuck her head out to make sure there was no one in there before she walk out.

" Did I heard it right? They deadass ship me with that dork ? Heol ! Me? and Taehyung? TaeRene ship? Sinking? What nonsense was that? We already died in that freaking ocean without even sailing. ", she blabbered, pulling a disgusted face as she washed her hand.

" Plus, I'm too gorgeous to be ship with a guy named Kim Taehyung. Opps! I know it hurts honey but that's the truth. ", she flip her hand and check herself on the mirror before finally made her way out of the restroom.

Irene went back to the cafe just to see Taehyung was there too but she noticed Jisoo was not there. Rowoon already left before because he got something to do.

" Where's Jisoo? ", she asked without even bother to greet her childhood friens first.

Taehyung shrugged his shoulder while biting on Irene's strawberry.

" Yah! That's mine! ", she yelled at him but Taehyung doesn't seem to care. Irene took all the strawberries and shoved it in her mouth with one go.

" How old are you? 5 ? ", Taehyung ogled his eyes.

Irene intentionally showing off to Taehyung as she munched on her strawberries loudly causing her cheeks to get bloated. But then she get choked because of eating too much strawberries at once.

" Irene?! Are you okay?? ", Seulgi panicked.

Taehyung quickly handed her his water bottle and she took it without even thinking twice. She drank the whole water in the bottle in one go without left any for Taehyung.

" Haaah~ ", Irene let out a sigh of relief. " Phew! I almost die there ", she added before passing the bottle to Taehyung back.

" Your welcome and serve you right ", he rolled his eyes in annoyance. Irene stucked out her tongue at Taehyung just to annoy him more than he already was.

Seulgi and Jimin just shook their head looking at the two of them.

" Anyway, where are we just now ? ", Jimin snapping his finger as he tried to remember the toopic that they were discussing with Taehyung just now just before Irene came to made their discussion on hold.

" Ah! Right. Are you going to return her feeling and make it official? ", he asked.

" I don't know. ", he simply replied, toasting his phone in his hand.

" What do you mean you don't know? Yah, your picture has been spreaded literally everywhere. ", Irene butted in.

" Then? Was it my fault? ", Taehyung stared into her eyes. Irene shut her mouth and looked away. Sometimes, Taehyung is kind of scary when he is mad so she chose to stay quiet.

" It wasn't your fault but I think it would be nice and fair if you go and talk to her. Clear things out before people make their own speculation about the two of you. In this case, Jisoo will had it worst than you. She's a girl and it's not easy for her to brave herself to confess her feeling towards you just to get rejected. Have some pity for her. She's kind and a good girl too. " Seulgi giving him an advice and
a solution to clear this mess up.

" She is sincere about her feeling towards you. Please reconsider it before you break her heart into pieces. ", Irene manage to say it before she left the cafe, ignoring Seulgi amd Jimin calling out her names.

Taehyung's gaze followed Irene's petite figure right until she completely gone behind the closed door.

' It's not that easy when my heart already belongs to someone else for quite a long time now. ', the voice in his head spoke.
