*3rd person's POV*

Jimin was sitting down gazing ahead, from the hotel patio. He sighed as he saw everyone laughing and having fun. He was just tired and hungry. His phone vibrated and he answered the phone without looking at the name of the caller.

"Hello" He said but was only met with silence. He repeated the Hello and this time a voice returned the greeting. He looked up recognizing the owner of the voice. His eyes showed affection but that was soon replaced by anger. He was about to hang up.

"Don't hang up please. I just want to explain... Please..." her voice trailed off and Jimin just sighed. The silence in both ends prevailed for some time but both of them was not complaining much.

"Why? After all these years.... why now?" Jimin asked the anger evident in his voice.

"I... I was an idiot. I realized that now... I really was an idiot... I miss... you... us... everything. *sniff* but I know you are happy with her now and I don't want to take that away from you. I just wanted to say that I really am sorry." The reply from his caller left Jimin teary. He wiped the tears away just like he pushed away the memories that were raising up. He chuckled sadly before continuing.

"If... if you said those words 2 years ago... then we wouldn't have been here. It's too late now." Jimin said and he was about to hang up again but his heart was refusing. Something inside him made him want to hear her voice more. He regretted feeling that way but he really couldn't do much about it.

"Jimin-ssi, I... I wish you well. I hope you continue to be yourself with whoever by your side. Bye." Jimin was about to say something but the other person abruptly ended the call. He sighed again as he gazed at the number.

"Hey you seem sad!" Momo said as she sat beside Jimin. He faked a smile at her and looked ahead.

"You should've been an actor." Momo said and Jimin just chuckled and shook his head.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know why I feel this way after everything. I was a fool throughout my entire life for her and why do I still want to be... her fool?" Jimin said putting his hands on his face. Momo simply put a hand on his shoulders and smiled at him.

"You still can't forget her?"

"Trust me I was more surprised. I am happy, I am aren't I? Why do I want to go back and experience the pain again? What's wrong with me Momo-yah. I have another freaking person who trusts me and likes me. I don't know what to do. Am I a horrible person?"

"You're not but it's clear that you still love Jisoo and please don't use your current girlfriend to forget your past." Momo sighed and silence followed after her words. She continued.

"Jimin you are a really nice person, you would literally move mountains for the people you care about but I think you are clearly at denial here and it's not going to end well for anyone. I'll leave you to it, I know you will always choose the right choice. Bye."

Momo patted Jimin's shoulders and made her way inside the hotel. A girl in the reception caught her eye. She was walking past the girl when she suddenly noticed the conversation and the girl's voice that made her stop in her tracks.

"Yeah. No, he asked me to come here. His room number is 436. Yeah."

"Your name Ma'am."
Just then the girl's phone rang and she picked it up putting her hands up to tell the receptionist to wait a bit.

"Sorry about that. I'm Yoo Jeongyeon."

Momo's eyes widened and she felt as if her breathing stopped. She glanced towards the girl. Jeongyeon was on her phone and she turned around while continuing her conversation on the phone. She had a mask on her face and she didn't see Momo at first but when her eyes landed on Momo she smiled. Jeongyeon didn't realize that the latter had already heard her conversation, she just thinks that Momo recognized her friend "Julia".

Jeongyeon hung up her phone and started walking towards Momo.

*Momo's POV*

"Hi Momo-ssi. How are you?" She asked and I couldn't respond. I stood there and just blankly nodded.

She could fake her voice really well.

Your hair is short, you're blond, you have glasses.

I smiled as she continued her conversation. I simply went forward and hugged her. She was rigid for sometime but hugged me back. Before I knew it I was sobbing.

"I'm sorry." I whispered and she patted my back.

"For what, Momo-ssi?" She chuckled and I pulled away from the hug. I put my hands on her mask and almost immediately  she put her hands on top of mine, to prevent me from whatever I was trying to do.

"For everything..... Jeongyeon-ah" I said and she froze. Everything stopped. Her eyes were wide and she was backing away as I slightly pulled her mask away. I saw her after 3 years. 3 freaking long years.

I dropped the mask on the floor, it's tiny weight felt like pounds to me now. I felt weak. I felt like I could collapse any moment. We both stayed like that for what felt like years. Her eyes never leaving mine. Her eyes were telling me that she was missing me but her body wasn't. Her eyes were screaming so many emotions that I could barely understand. She closed her eyes trying her best to comprehend the situation.

You still do that?

Her phone rang again, startling both of us. She looked down, my eyes caught her shaking hands and her frantic actions. I was about to move towards her when.

"Jeongyeon-ah there you are!"

Jimin?!

Does he know Jeong-

Wait a minute don't tell me-

"Oh Momo-yah you're here. Meet my girlfriend Jeongyeon." Jimin said as Jeongyeon looked towards me.

"Nice to... meet you" I managed to utter out those words after some time.

"You too." She whispered and her attention shifted to answer Jimin's questions. She was glancing towards me and I looked down. I stood there until Jimin went away to some place. I couldn't move or do anything.

"Momo-" I hugged her as soon as he left. She hugged me back.

"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry...please forgive me... please.." I managed to choke out between sobs and she nodded.

"Me too, I am sorry too, Momo-yah." She whispered and tightened our hug.
