Y/n's POV

I told Jack we should play other games.
At first he was stubborn, but eventually I convinced him to play other games that doesn't include his toys.
We played hide and seek in the backyard for twenty minutes after the rain stopped, but then it started raining again.

"Jack, it's time to eat!" I heard Taehyung's voice, he walked into the backyard with an umbrella to get Jack inside to eat.
We both made eye contact, it was embarrassing.
He picked up Jack and stared at me again.
"You can come and eat too if you want" He said, I nodded slowly.
All of us got into the house quickly, I felt weird.

I sat down next to Jack in the kitchen table after we walked in.
The food was already on the table, Jack started eating straight away.
I didn't eat anything, I wasn't that hungry.
I made myself a cup of tea as Taehyung was helping Jack eat the food without being messy.
"Y/n, eat something" Taehyung suddenly said and stood up next to me.

"It's fine, I'm not hungry." I replied as I took a sip from the tea.
"Tae I..." I said quietly as we both stood aside, making sure Jack doesn't hear anything.
"What is it?" He lowered his tone as well.
"About the watch... I didn't steal it, I swear. Chloe gave it to me, there was a huge misunderstanding and-" I said but he cut my sentence quickly.
"I believe you." He said, and i was surprised I didn't even have to try to convince him.
"You... do? Because last night you-" I asked to be sure, I didn't think he'll believe me so easily.
"Yes... last night I was drunk y/n. I know you wouldn't do that.
I'll speak to Chloe later on."
Taehyung said, him trusting me made me feel safe.
Taehyung returned to sit with Jack again and helped him finish the food.
I looked at the two of them, asking myself "what the hell are you doing y/n?".
Everything doesn't even seem real.
I never thought I would grow my feelings for him back after ten years.

Taehyung's POV

The night arrived.
I spent the day with Jack and a little bit with y/n, I needed that little break.

When Chloe came back from work I went to talk to her straight away about the incident, but I didn't even know how to start.
"Chloe, can I speak to you for a moment?" I asked her as we both got into our room.
"I need to tell you something important" She suddenly said with a huge smile on her face.
"You go first." I said, letting her speak before me.
"Well, I've talked to a few close friends of mine and told them that we needed to postpone the wedding. One of them told me he knows someone who can arrange the wedding and everything in just a few weeks, which is exactly what we were looking for instead of waiting and preparing for months again.
And obviously, I handled it and spoke to that person, he said he's willing to help us with the wedding and everything. It's perfect for us babe" She spoke and my mouth slightly opened. I really didn't expect to hear this, especially not now.
It came out of nowhere, I didn't know how to react.
"W-well, it's great..." I mumbled as she kissed my lips in excitement.
"Can you believe that we are finally getting married in a few weeks after all of these struggles?" She said and leaned her forehead on mine, placing her hands on my cheeks.
I forced a smile.
"I'm going to start searching for the perfect wedding dress and... gosh. I'm so excited, you're all mine..." She kept saying and kissed me again, i kissed her back apathetically, she was so happy.

All of these news made me forget why I wanted to talk to her in the first place.
"I need to go outside for a second to get some fresh air." I said, my heart started beating faster.
"Why? Is everything okay?" She asked worriedly.
"Yea yea... I guess I'm just too excited" I found an excuse to walk outside to the backyard. I had to stay away from Chloe for a few moments to process everything.
"Aww" She replied and gave me a pleading look.

I walked outside into the backyard and sat on the same bench, feeling frustrated.

Y/n's POV

I stayed most of the day in my room, coming up with new ideas of what to draw for the next day.
Taehyung didn't leave my mind, and so did the thoughts about the basement.
I was really curious about it, and I'd lie if I say I didn't try to open the door of it multiple times when I had the chance, but the door was well locked.

I was cleaning the room a little as I looked outside the window for a slight moment, seeing Taehyung sitting on the bench all alone.
"Just keep cleaning y/n..." I thought to myself and sighed, but I couldn't drag my attention away from him.

"What is he doing there all alone?" I thought and looked at him again.
Eventually I got out of the room, it wouldn't hurt anyone to see if he's doing okay.

I walked towards him slowly, seeing his sad face expression.
"Hey..." I said while sitting next to him. He gave me a cold look.
"Hey" he replied with a deep tone.
"What are you doing here all  alone? Is everything alright?" I asked as he sighed, he looked at the ground.
"Everything is just perfect" he answered, but I could already tell everything was the opposite of perfect for him.
"Y/n..." He said and gulped, still looking at the ground.
"Yea?" I asked, I felt like he was scared of making eye contact with me.
"I need to tell you something." He said, my heart started beating quickly. He was so serious.
"Chloe and I... we're getting married in a few weeks. It's already settled..." He kept speaking, I looked at the ground too now. I don't even know why I felt so broken, it's not like I didn't know they are going to get married in the first place.
"And...?" I said in a hope to hear good news coming out of his mouth.
"That's it, I just felt the urge to let you know..." He answered, and I can't even describe what I felt in that moment.

"Why are you telling me this" I asked angrily, I couldn't control my emotions who made my voice break as I spoke.
There was silence.
"I don't know..." He responded as I bit my bottom lip strongly. why would he do this to me?
Even though we didn't promise anything to each other, even though I knew he was engaged, he still somehow made me feel like there's still hope left between the two of us. And I really fucking hoped that something would happen.
"It's already late, goodnight." I said impatiently and stood up, he didn't say anything.
I walked back into my room with an empty feeling inside my heart.
But at least now... at least now I know that everything was all in my head.

Jin's POV

I spent another day with Ella in our apartment.
She can be rude sometimes, but she's the sweetest if you earn her trust.

I haven't stopped thinking about y/n, but the moments I'm with Ella are the moments I can finally forget about her.
I don't know what's my thing with Ella, but what I do know is that she's the only one who can make me forget about y/n.
Getting over y/n is the best option right now, I really don't want to keep being hurt.

Taehyung's POV

The next day came, I couldn't sleep properly at night.
I'm not happy.
But it's much more complicated than you think...
I'm pretty sure y/n is angry at me, but even more than that- I think she's disappointed. And it's all my fault.

I got ready for work, not feeling the best.
I saw y/n walking out for work as well, we both met outside.
"I can drive you there if you wa-" I didn't even finish my sentence and she interrupted in the middle.
"It's fine, I can take the bus" she replied, not looking at me. The tension between us was strong, I hate it when we are like this.
After she walked away, I headed to my car.
I was about to open it as suddenly an old women grabbed my hand. I flinched as I turned my face to look at her, she gave me a creepy look. She had dark circles under her eyes, her veins popping out and she has a strong smell of cigarettes coming from her.
"Excuse me" I said, expecting her to leave my arm, but she didn't.
"Excuse me ma'am I-" I was nervous as she looked at me.
"T-Taehyung...?" She said with her withered and bitter voice.

"Do I know you?" I asked curiously, I had no idea who that lady was.
"I cant believe I finally meet you..." She answered, leaving me confused.
"It's me... mom"
