The next morning, Irene woke up a little bit early and done showering but haven't came out of the bathroom for like half an hour already.

She was literally standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, staring at her own refelction in the mirror.

" Why did you cried the whole night, stupid? ", she cussed under her breath as she touched her swollen eyes.

--

" Yah, why did your wear sunglasses early in the morning? ", Seulgi looked her roommate weirdly.

" Because I want to ", she simply answered.

They were now heading to the cafeteria and had a little conversation in their short journey.

As soon as they reached the cafeteria, they saw Jimin reserved a table for three of them while playing with his phone.

" Good morning! ", Seulgi went to approach her boyfriend while Irene just trailed behind her and went to take a seat opposite them.

" Morning Bear ~ Eo? Irene ? Why are you wearing sunglasses? " Jimin asked as she saw Irene.

" Oh come on you two. It's not just me who wear sunglasses here. ", she rolled her eyes behind the sunglasses.

" Yeah, it just you. ", Jimin said while looking around.

" Ergh, whatever. Just ignore me, thank you. ", Irene said, crossing her arms over her chest. The couple could just chuckled at her words.

" Good morning! ", a voice approached them. The three of them turned to look at the person and it was Jisoo with Taehyung at her back.

Irene looked away after she accidentally made an eye contact with Taehyung althouh he could not completely saw her eyes behind her black sunglasses.

" Can we join you guys? ", asked Jisoo all smiley. She averted her gaze at Irene.

" Eo? Irene-ah,  why did you- ", just before she could asked Irene an obvious question, Irene immediately cut her off.

" Ah~ why all of you asking me the same question? It's not that weird, okay ? ", Irene massage her temple as she shook her head in disbelief.

" Hehehe mian! ", Jisoo said before took a seat next to Irene's right side meanwhile Taehyung took a seat on Irene's left side. She could feel how Taehyung intentionally brushed his shoulder aginst her but she just ignored it.

Irene is now sitting in between Taehyung and Jisoo. Okay, that's awkward.

" Irene-ah, can you sit next to Seulgi? ", asked Jisoo. Irene was taken aback with her boldness in asking her to change her seat.

" Sure ", she uttered before got up from her seat and went to Seulgi's side.

" Taehyung-ah, sit here ", she casually pulled Taehyung's arm to come to sit next to her and he lazily moved and sit next to her.

Irene started to get annoyed with Jisoo's clinginess towards Taehyung but can she complain? Obviously no.
She can just sit there and let her heart broke from small pieces into smaller pieces.

After they bought their breakfast, once again Irene had to witness something that make her want to vanish from there.

" Taehyung-ah, have a taste of this! ", Jisoo said as she feed him her cheese sausage.

' LMAO. It was just a cheese sausage. Huh! ', Irene stab on her sausage with her fork and eat it in annoyance.

" Aigoo~ aigoo~ Seulgi-ah, I think our tittle as the sweetest Couple in campus will get snatched by them real soon. ", Jimin teased.

" I know right. We can't let them win ! ", Seulgi jokingly said, making Irene felt more irritate.

" What are you guys even saying ~ ", Jisoo chuckled. Taehyung could only fake a smile as he played with the food.

Irene on the other hand could not stand it anymore. She stood up almost immediately gaining their attention.

" Where are you going? ", Seulgi asked.

" Huh? Ouh. I- errmm ", Irene looking around, searching for something to create an excuse. Just in time she saw Rowoon was looking for a seat with his food tray in his hand.

" Eo? Rowoon-sshi ! ", she called. She quickly took her food tray and went over Rowoon before pulling him with her to somewhere only they know.

" She's weird ", Seulgi shook her head.

The rest of them just continue eating their breakfast except for Taehyung. He completely lost his appetite. He might look calm outside but the real thing is he kept thinking of Irene, Irene and Irene.

" Taehyung-ah, what's wrong? Why aren't you eating? ", asked Jisoo.

" I'm full ", he replied as he got up from his seat.

" Finish your food. I'll see you in class. ", he said before took his food tray and left.

" Taehyung-ah ", she called but he already left.

" Guys, I'll get going first. See you. ", Jisoo bid them a goodbye and went after Taehyung.

" What's wrong with them seriously ", Seulgi was totally clueless with everyone's behavior today.

" Just let them be. Ouh ! Mom invite you to have lunch at our house today. Wanna join? ", Jimin wiggled his eyebrows.

" Really? I'd love to ! ", she happily said before continue to finish her food.

Irene were sitting at the corner of the cafeteria with Rowoon.

" So... what's going on? ", he spoke.

"  I just feels like to eat breakfast with you. I guess we don't really get to know each other that much. ", she lied.

" Ouh, right. But aren't you having breakfast with them just now? ", he asked.

" Well, I felt a bit left out and can't relate with them anymore cuz you know haha I'm the only one who are still single in that group. ", she simply said.

" Ah, right. I heard the rumors that said Taehyung and Jisoo has officially start dating. So, I guess it's true, huh? ", he looked down on his food.

" Yeah. Guess we're the only one who are still remain single here. ", Irene jokingly said.

" Do you want to join my single club? ", Rowoon chuckled at his own word as he look at Irene who was trying hard to maintain her happy face when deep down in her heart, she's sad and broken. Just like him.

Yes. He knows it. He knows everything that happened between her and Taehyung. He was there and heard their conversation. He saw how Taehyung gave a peck on her lips and said that he loved her.

He thought they were together now and he got a chance to confess his feeling to Jisoo. But his hope went down real fast after he heard the rumors about Taehyung and Jisoo. He was beyond shock and broken but there's nothing he can do.

For him, if Jisoo happy then he should be happy for her too. That's what you do for someone you loved although they didn't end up being with you.

As for Irene, he could understand too on why she let Jisoo have him instead of her. It's because she does not want to betray her friend.

He knows that Irene have the same feeling for Taehyung too but her ego was too high.

He knew it because he is someone who are talkless and observe more.
