     "No"

"Yes"

"What?" Jeongguk snapped his head to look at his slightly younger twin brother. "Are you crazy?! You're not serious, right? This is just a joke? Haha?"

"Gguk, first off, calm down, you sound really childishly." Jungkook gave a bored look to accommodate his words. "Secondly, why not? It's been years and he wanted to meet up to tell both of us so he could fix it."

Taehyung nodded, trying to stop the tears rolling down his cheeks.

"He could've told us the day he fucking left!" Jeongguk rose his voice. "He made it so much worse than what it had to be, Kook! We could've solved this but he decided to run away!"

"Because he was scared of what we would do. Do you blame him entirely?"

"Yes!" Jeongguk nodded as if it were the most obvious thing ever. "When the fuck did you care on how he felt?! Seriously?!" The pro athlete was furious, face bright red with rage and anger. He couldn't believe his ears. Jungkook was crazy to him. All the shit Taehyung put them through mentally and he wanted to rekindle things? Bullshit.

"G-Ggukie-"

"Don't you fucking dare call me that, Kim! Don't even try!" Jeongguk jolted his attention to the crying adult who had a quivering bottom lip. "And wipe your fucking crocodile tears or I'll give you something to bawl over like a little bitch!"

Jungkook rolled his eyes. After hearing what Taehyung had to say and seeing Jeongguk reaction, he couldn't help but to agree with the way Taehyung handled things. Well, on some sort of level. He didn't think running away was the greatest choice but he understood one way or the other.

The dude was drunk. He made the mistake of sleeping with someone else — which is pretty common while under the influence. Taehyung was scared of facing the Jeon Twins, afraid of what outcome would've came with it and Jungkook could see why.

He didn't only see it from Jeongguk but also himself, too. He also had rose his voice and threatened serious harm to Taehyung so he had no choice but to understand why Taehyung was scared and decided to flight.

"Jeongguk," Taehyung corrected himself. "I-I'm terribly sorry, really. I will n-never forgive myself for what I did. I k-know it's stupid or whatever but . . ." He wiped his tears, trying to stop his bottom lip from quivering the way it was, trying to calm down and not breathe so heavy. "J-Just let's t-try to be friends . . . Please?"

Jeongguk sighed, looking away in what seemed to be in thought. He gave it a moment before he locked eyes back with Taehyung, leaning forward ever so slightly. His and the elder's face was a few inches apart they were so close. "I rather pick up every grain of sand in the Sahara desert, blindfolded, using only my fucking elbows before I even consider being your fucking friend again." Jeongguk said in a low tone that was anything but sweet. He pushed to his feet, walking away from the table without another word to be discussed.

That's when Jungkook huffed, shaking his head and chasing after his brother. The said twin was already in the car, door slammed behind him and the seatbelt pulled over his well built body. He wasn't having any of it, he didn't want to talk about it, didn't want to do anything about it. He simply wanted to go home.

He didn't buy any of the apologies. He felt like Taehyung didn't care and who was he to beg for them to be friends again? Jeongguk wasn't in the mood to deal with any it.

He was cut from his thoughts when Jungkook slipped in on the other end, releasing a huff of clear annoyance to show Jeongguk just how upset he was at the said adult. He couldn't believe how childish Jeongguk was acting. It was years ago. Years ago. Jungkook held a grudge but that was before knowing the the entire issue. He still had some uncertainty but he was willing to try and sometimes, trying is what was needed.
