Taehyung's POV:

"Take, get up!"

Someone shook me. I opened my eyes.
It's already noon. I slept for the whole night and the whole morning.

Jimin was there, waking me up.

"Jin and Yoongi hyung cooked for us. Get up, have some."

"Coming," I yawned and got up.

I finished freshen up and came out of my room.
Everybody was there in the dining room. They didn't tell me, but I could tell by the look of the foods on the table, these were for me. Foods made with love and care.

I felt soft.

"Tae, come on, we are waiting," said Namjoon hyung.

I took a seat, Jin hyung passed me a bowl of Japchae soup.

"Hyung..." I hung my head low, "I am sorry."

They looked at me smiling.

"I am sorry for yesterday, hyung. And Kookie, I am sorry for snapping at you."

"It's ok, Tae. We understand." Yoongi hyung patted my back, "But you know, you have to tell us what you are going through. Otherwise, we won't know it."

I nodded.

"Eat, Tae. You have to finish it all," Jin hyung warned me.

I smiled.
Lunchtime went well while everybody was still vibing with the two wins at the BBMA.

I suddenly remembered Sejin. I needed to know where was Ashley.

"Namjoon hyung, can you call Sejin sunbaenim here? I left my phone in my room."

He nodded and called him.
Others were curious so Jin hyung told them about Ashley.

"I don't think this as a coincidence anymore hyung," Jimin told Hoseok hyung. "This is definitely predestined. Its fate. They will end up finding one another. Don't you think?"

"I agree," Yoongi hyung replied.

I was a bit surprised seeing Yoongi hyung seriously vibing with this. I laughed.

Sejin came in ten minutes later.

"Sunbaenim, about yesterday..." I  approached him, "Did you find that girl?"

"About that...." Sejin replied repositioning his glasses, "I was gonna ask you about how do you wanna proceed with the matter?"

"What matter?" I frowned, "I told you to locate her and everything."

"Yes, we did that," he replied. "Her name is Ashley Charlotte Ruth, a quite renowned youngster in neurosurgery, as you can tell that she is a doctor. She is traveling to a lot of countries recently as she is suspended from her job back in her country weeks ago. She is staying at an Itaewon Hotel, we have her intel."

"Give me the name of her hotel and suite number," I asked without thinking what my next move should be.

"You don't have to get involved in this. We took care of it," Sejin said.

"What? " I was confused. The members were confused as well. What was he talking about?

Seeing us confused, Sejin became confused too, he hesitantly spoke, "I  was on my way here to ask you, how you want to proceed with the legal matter? The lawsuit?"

"Lawsuit? What lawsuit?" I was dumbfounded. None of his words made any sense.

"Sejin, sunbeanim,........" Namjoon hyung sounded calm, "What did you do?"

"I....we......" Sejin was utterly confused. "Taehyungssi wanted to see her in court, he even took a picture of her. I took care of it. We informed her consulate to restrict her movement and preparing a lawsuit for breaching of privacy against her."

I thumped on the sofa hearing this. Am I listening to things right?

Seeing my reaction, Sejin immediately knew something wasn't right.

"Those two were two different persons, Sejin. Ashley is my friend!" I hid my face in frustration.

"Sunbaenim," Namjoon hyung stepped in.
"Undo everything you've done, please. Confirm with the consulate about the misunderstanding. Right now."

"I am sorry, Taehyungssi," Sejin said guiltily, "I misunderstood."

I didn't respond.
Sejin rushed out to speak with someone on phone.

Hoseok hyung sat beside me and hugged my shoulder, "It's ok, Tae. Everything will be fixed."

Sejin came back after five minutes.

"Well, sunbaenim?" Namjoon hyung asked.

"She...." Sejin was hesitating, "she left, Namjoonssi. She was mad and took the first flight back to New Zealand, her home. And....she left a message for BTS."

"What is that?" Jin hyung frowned.

" Go to hell."

It was savage, but nobody cheered this time.

Sejin left and I was still there, sitting still hiding my face.

"Tae..."

I got up and came back to my room.

"Tae..." Jin hyung called me from my door.

I looked back at him. His eyes were soft, affectionate. I went to him not telling him anything in response.
He took me in his arm, embracing me tightly.

I tried to blink my tears away, it hurts like hell even after all these days.
"Why hyung? Why do I always let her go like this?"





Ashley's POV:

I was angry like hell. I could have tore down them into pieces and that even was not enough to calm down my rage.
I was sitting on the plane, going back. The plane would take off any minute now.

BTS? Who the hell they think they are to bring an allegation on someone all of a sudden? Just like that? And why me?
Last night I was in this airport, seeing the huge crowd. I heard them telling me that they were waiting on BTS for coming back from the states. And now? I am going to be sued by them. What a joke!

I brought out my phone. I need to see these jerks.

"Ma'am, please switch off your phone, we are taking off," the stewardess asked me.

I nodded and went to turn off my phone.
My heart skipped a beat as soon as the search result appears on the screen. My fingers couldn't hold onto the phone anymore.

I was looking at Tae, or should I say, V?
