Throughout the time that Jeungguk was crying, Jimin had realised that the younger was indeed in love with his best friend. Even if it is a short while, he can totally understand Jeungguk though. He himself did think he had feelings for Taehyung, until he met his brother Min Yunki, the man who changed his life. Jimin had worked hard to get Yunki to finally like him, and get a proposal for being in a relationship from him. The Kim-Min brothers were alike when it came to love cause both had experienced the pain of losing the one they loved first hand.

But he still wanted Jeungguk to try for Taehyung, and he knew this wasn't going to be possible if the younger doesn't apologise properly to Taehyung at the earliest so, the next day he had sent Jeungguk off to Taehyung's office after getting a promise from him to only return after having apologised to the elder, or atleast tried to. Taehyung can be quiet a meathead sometimes, and he couldn't even blame him for it. The boy just had gone through soo much.

As Jeungguk entered the office building, he was first met with Yunki. "I heard what happened, gguk. Wait I can call you that right?" as Jeungguk nodded his head in confirmation, Yunki proceeded with what he was going to say as well. "And I am sure you are here because Jimin sent you. I don't think you would've thought of coming and apologising to him on your own."

Jeungguk, putting his head down, nodded again. "I didn't know how to handle it hyung. Maybe I am not the right one for him." The younger had tears forming in the corner of his eyes and Yunki could see that. He felt bad for the both of them. He remembered the conversation he had with Taehyung earlier about this.

--

A very disappointed Taehyung had entered the office that day and Yunki only needed a glance to know that something was wrong with his younger brother. But he couldn't ask anything in the middle of the meeting he was having. The employees who ever saw Taehyung, never knew his real identity. He just went with the name V, standing for victory as he claimed and was just another common employee like them.

As the meeting was dismissed, Yunki didn't waste anymore time to go and check on his brother. He knew something was gravely wrong because the younger hadn't even stayed back to great his own brother. As he entered the cabin, he saw Taehyung sitting back on his chair with his eyes closed. Almost looked like he was reminiscing something. Well, Taehyung was reminiscing what had happened today morning.

"Good morning to you too sleepy head." Yunki had said, as he sat down on the chair in front of the the younger. He was only trying to lighten the mood, but it didn't help, since Taehyung still remained silent.

"What happened Taebear?" Yunki questioned him. Eagerly wanting to know what got his brother so upset early in the morning. "is it related to Jeungguk?" and this time he got a response. A deep sigh from the younger, and he knew it was about the boy.

"What did he do this time?" Yunki was just curious this time.

"He lied to me hyung." And now it was yunki's turn to sigh. He had known the youngers hatred towards the ones who lied to him. He had always known even the reason behind it. But sometimes, like these, he wishes the younger lets go off his past.

And Taehyung went on to recite everything that took place from yesterday evening to that days morning. As it ended Yunki only began to wish more, that Jeungguk would be able to help Taehyung break past his barriers.

"he must have got scared Taehyung-ah. I know you want to give it a try with him, but you wont be able to if you are going to let whatever happened to you before, hold you back. Relax a bit. He is also new to being in a relationship or trying to be in one. If you want to be happy with him, then you need to give him the doubt of benefit and let him explain. Talking makes everything better."

"I know hyung. I get what you are trying to say, but I cant bring myself to. I am scared to let him in. I really wished he hadn't lied to me though. I know it was a small thing, but every time he tells something to me now, I would always think of the time he lied and would always doubt him."

Yunki just went and patted the younger one. "Give him a chance Taetae. Just this once." Having no choice, Taehyung just nodded his head and got back to his work. Now that he had talked his problem out with his hyung, his mind was relaxed. He still had the task of convincing the two people to do the job.

As Yunki was heading out of the others room, he turned back to look at Taehyung one last time and saw a smile slowly spreading on his face. "Hope, this smile because of Jeungguk always lasts on your face Taehyung-ah."

--

He recited what was on Taehyung's mind to Jeungguk so that the latter knew what exactly he had to say to Taehyung to be forgiven. Jeungguk was confused on why the elder was helping him woo his brother, but he was just glad for the help. He really didn't want to be on Yunki's bad side. He had heard some very fantastic stories of things he would do if anyone was on his bad side. The same applied to Taehyung as well. While Yunki does it openly, Taehyung was always subtle about it. That was the only difference between the two brothers to be honest.

Sweat beads forming on his forehead, Jeungguk entered Taehyung's cabin after getting the directions from Yunki. But, it didn't seem like the right time for Jeungguk to come because Taehyung's eyes had fire in them. He was pissed beyond the world and god alone knew why.

"Man up Jeungguk. You can do this." He muttered under his breathe and looked at Taehyung. "Can I come in Tae-Mr.Kim?" remembering the incident from morning, he addressed the latter formally not wanting to get on his nerves any further than he already had in the morning.
