Stigma Love's Algorithm [ A BTS x Reader Poly ]

Chapter 96: Where We Are Meant to Be

Jungkook immediately burst out laughing, hand slapping the table.

Hobi groaned, flopping sideways onto Yoongi's shoulder. "Oh god."

Yoongi looked vaguely amused. "What? Why? You know Dr. Ji woo?"

Jin oppa tilted his head.

"You mean my Jiwoo? Therapist Jiwoo? Who's always late and always right?"

Hobi sighed dramatically.

"I think I missed something," Namjoon said, raising a brow.

"She's my sister," Hobi admitted, burying his face in his hands.

"What?!" Oppa choked on his soju.

Tae blinked rapidly.

"Dr. Jung Jiwoo is your sister?!"

"Older sister. Four years," Hobi muttered through his fingers. "I know. I know."

"You've been working with her for years,"

I said, turning to Oppa.

"She's been with me since I started my firm, it's been 11 years," Jin murmured, eyes wide.

"And she never once mentioned that she's related to a famous celebrity influencer."

"She's private," Hobi said. "And... well, I'm not always great with boundaries."

Jungkook snorted. "Understatement."

"I will end you," Hobi said sweetly, tossing a napkin swan at him.

"But wait," I said, leaning in.

"You never told us-how did you even decide to come to the trial? After all this time?"

Hobi paused. Then smiled softly.

"Ji woo Noona told me to."

"She told you?"

"She was nice about it when I went to see her but then a couple of nights before the trial, she called and guilt-tripped me,"

he said, eyes fond.

"Said, and I quote, 'If you don't show up for that boy who's been through hell, I swear to god, I'll show up at your apartment and drag you there by the ear.'"

"Sounds like her," Jin oppa muttered.

"She's terrifying," Hobi said with a dramatic shiver.

"She's amazing," I replied, smiling now. "Remind me to thank her tonight."

As if summoned by fate, the door slid open.

And in they came-Taehyung's legal dream team.

Park Hyung Sik entered first, dashing as always in a navy suit, his grin roguish and full of charm.

Park Seojun followed, tugging Choi Woo Shik in by the sleeve while Woo Shik protested that his tie was crooked.

Jisoo trailed in behind them, radiant in a cream blouse and pencil skirt, already pulling out her phone and snapping pictures of the room with a delighted squeal.

And then-
Dr. Ji woo.

She stepped in last, elegant and composed, her long coat fluttering behind her like a cape.

Her eyes swept the room, landed on Hobi-and softened.

"Jung Hoseok I had a feeling you'd be here," she said in that no-nonsense voice.

"Dr. Jung Ji woo, I had hoped you weren't" he replied in mock formality, grinning.

Jungkook leapt to his feet and bowed.
