The office was silent for a couple minutes. My head was lowered, and Taehyung was tapping his feat. Our friends fidgeted in their spots, while my principal was resting his chin on his folded hands.
Then out of nowhere . . .
My eomma started to lightly cry.
"Eomma, are you okay?" I asked, raising my head.
She continued to let tears run down her face. My appa tried to comfort her.
"It's just--"
Everyone focused their attention to her.
"You did all of this, just to see each other?" she asked, whimpering.
"Yeah," Taehyung replied. "Ma-am?"
My eomma looked at Taehyung. His voice got a little sentimental.
"I know you probably don't want me around Jungkook, but I can't help it. I know I did terrible things to him in the past but . . . seriously it's just the past."
"Babe, not helping," I whispered.
"I am truly sorry. If there is any way I could make up for what I did, then please let me know. And if there is anything I could do to have a normal date with Jungkook, even if it's the last time . . . then I'd be more than happy to."
My eomma's sorrow eyes stared into Taehyung's. I myself got a little teary. And this must be a best friend thing, because Lisa sensed it and wiped my eyes with her sleeve, from BEHIND me.
After a bit, my eomma said the words I've been waiting to hear for a long time.
"I'm done."
Everyone's eyes widened in shock.
"I didn't know how much you meant to each other, especially considering before. I thought Jungkook's mind was in a bad place, but I had forgotten he was the smartest nineteen year-old I know."
My legs got a little antsy. I looked at my appa.
"Jungkook-ah we want you to be happy. Taehyung has clearly changed, and--"
My parents stared into each other's eyes while I was gripping the arm rests.
Then my eomma made eye contact with me. She stood up, turned around, and faced the principal.
"Mr. Kang?"
"Yes, Mrs. Jeon."
She took a deep breath.
"I need you to call off all the school guards."
"B-but ma'am--"
"It's over, I'm sorry . . . for causing you so much trouble."
"WOOOOOOOO!"
My friends started jumping up and down, while I jumped into my boyfriend's arms. The girls started to "cry" and the guys started to cheer, while I dug my face into Taehyung's neck.
"IT'S OVER!" Lisa shouted.
"It's over," I whispered into Taehyung's ear.
Lisa and Hwasa came in to embrace Taehyung and I. Soon after it turned into a big friend hug. I hadn't felt this happy in a while.
