Chapter 18

Jennie's Pov

On witnessing the shadow behind me with a knife in hand, I was startled for a moment but then gathering up courage I turned in swift and grabbed hold of his hand. Before I could harm him any further, the lights were turned on and I was shocked to find the man with a knife to be hobi. He yelled out in pain, as I froze on with his arms still twisted.

"sorry hobi, I thought it to be a thief and did that in defense", I let go of his hand.

"we thought to surprise you but you surprised us", jimin pouted with cake in his hand. I am not the type of person who would forget her own birthday but with all the things happening around how could I remain sane.

"how do you guys know? Did Seohyun told you?", I asked glaring at her

"no it wasn't me it was jin", she defended

but.. probably he might have noticed them while he booked tickets 

"blow the candles, fast, they are about to melt down completely", jimin urged me

I wished for grace and uncle Francis well being and blow them off. On opening my eyes after wishing I noticed two similar kinds of figures more or less like grace and uncle Francis approaching me. At first, I thought due to stress I am imagining stuff but then as they walked closer I noticed it to be true and dashed on to them in happy tears.

"grace! why didn't you pick up the call? I thought something happened to both of you", I spoke out amidst whimpers

After a short dramatic reunion session, I finally turned my attention towards the boys who are all now teasing me for being cry baby. After all, I was the one who started teasing them at jk birthday when they cried over the video and now it's their turn.

"the cake looks yummy, I need to taste it, hurry up Jennie", jk urged me to cut the cake

"ice cream cake!", I exclaimed

"so you have finally noticed it", jimin scoffed

....

"Now it's gift time", jimin shouted grabbing everyone's attention.

"no bullshit excuses", tae said handing me the gifts well aware that I would protest against it.

"language tae", namjoon hit him. Smiling to myself I started unwrapping the gifts one by one. when the boys were bickering among themselves who's gift should I open first, I decided to go with Seohyun,

"it looks expensive, how much did you spend on me, you dumbo!", I hit her lightly looking at the pair of heels gifted by her

"If you are so worried, then repay me on my birthday", she said wiggling her eyebrows

"Unni when is yours?", tae asked her before she could reply namjoon answered it with details surprising everyone. I gave a smug look to Seohyun and nudged her.

"next open mine", namjoon said ignoring our glances

"ahh!" all of the boys shouted in union looking at the book in it

"I know he would gift that" "Hyung and his boring gift" "at least change the book you gift" the boys started teasing him

"yaah, it's a nice book all should read it", he defended

While the boys were busy bickering around I opened Jimin's gift next,

"a dream catcher" I gasped holding it

"This will keep you away from bad dreams", he smiled at me

"that's so thoughtful of you, thanks jimin"

Followed by jimin I opened hobi's gift, it was a pretty earring. I thanked him and moved on to grab jin's gift but before that tae insisted to open his gift first

Tae and jungkook handed me a big box,

"there isn't any explosive right?", I asked them sensing something fishy while they nodded in no.

"how long did it took for you guys to pack it?", I sighed taking the boxes from the box.

Pitying me, Hobi helped me in unwrapping them. when I opened the last box a clown popped out of it with loud music more like an explosive. Poor hobi who was helping me got more frightened than me. he started chasing them while they ran around the couch in laughter.

Laughing aloud, Next, I opened yoongi's gift and my eyes widened at the sight of it.

"what's wrong?", jimin asked but then started laughing on looking at it.

It was a hand fan with a picture and autograph of him in it. It's one of their merchandise

"Hyung you teased mine but you, yourself, got her our merchandise. Mine was way better-", namjoon frowned

"ah! calm down I am sure jin would have done the same, we will continue this debate of worst gift after his", yoongi said nonchalantly

The last gift was jin's, not taking much time I opened the pink box and found the same dress in the box that I had happened to choose for the girl he liked.

It also had note in it with 'under the sky' written on it. Others were too equally shocked as me but for another reason.

"wow!" "is that really hyung's gift" "it looks really pretty" ignoring the boy's comment I stormed out of the room in search of him who is now nowhere to be found.

Following the small lights by the stairs, I reached the rooftop which is now decorated with balloons, lights and swing. jin stood by the swing with a bouquet and another gift box in his hand. Just by the sight of it, I could tell he is up to something, maybe a proposal. while I stood still and gasped at the sight of him,

"it's not a dream", he smirked

"what's up with the gift jin? Isn't it for the girl you liked?", although I knew the answer still I asked him wishing it not to be a dream.

"you are the one, dumbo", he chuckled and walked closer

"I don't know how it all started, my feelings for you got stronger and stronger as days pass on and now I don't think I can't live without you, I want to spend the rest of my lifetime with you, would you stay by my side forever?", he confessed in a go making me dumbfound while the boys cheering him up from behind

"I... I'm afraid not jin", I bit out the words holding back my tears

"huh"

"I don't think I feel the same towards you", I lied not looking into his eyes

"Stop playing around Jennie, I have seen the love in your eyes, why are you lying?", he asked grabbing hold of my hand.

"no, I don't"

"If not then look into my eyes and say that again", he demanded tightening his grip while I didn't dare to look into his eyes. I was afraid that I might end up breaking down if I looked into them.

"let me go jin... it's paining", I hitched in pain

mianhae (sorry) jin for breaking your heart, if you are beside me, you will be in danger too, I don't want to lose my loved ones once again

The moment he let me go I rushed back to my room in tears and just like that two hearts were broken on that day.
