No Strings Attached (Jungkook x OC)

Part 10: I Love You, Goodbye.

A few days have passed and Seoyeon was starting to lose contact from Jungkook, who didn't even seem to pass by the cupcake shop just for a small chit chat. Bora has also been calling in sick for the past days and the only one who seemed to keep her company was Chanwoo.

Well.. slightly. Chanwoo would just end up giving her dry replies, as if he was really busy in his own thoughts of his relationship with his girlfriend.

Seoyeon hated it when Jungkook would cut ends unexpectedly, but this time around, she was afraid that he probably cut their ends forever.

Did he already go on vacation?

Is that why he's not here?

Is that why he's not dropping by and checking up on me?

She pursed her lips into a line, heading out the door once the clock struck six in the afternoon. She was definitely done her job today, mainly because she couldn't help but go and find Jungkook before she finds out that it's too late.

As she pulled out her phone, she dialed a few numbers and waited for his voice to answer the phone. A few rings, and she was growing impatient. A few more rings, and she has given up.

She sighed frustratingly, she looked around and found her eyes stop upon a familiar guy walking down the street, a hood covering his mop of hair.

She crossed the road, thankfully not getting run over by a car, and she found herself chasing after the guy who seemed like he was speeding up his walking pace. "Jimin-ah!"

The figure tensed up, speed walking even more and she found herself starting to run after him.

"Jimin-ah! Yah!" She exclaimed, and she finally caught up to him, pulling him to a halt.

He turned around and she took off his hood, grabbing his hands as if she was pleading him for an answer to all her questions. The impatience was slowly killing her, and he could see it through her brown orbs.

"Have you seen Jungkook? Do you know about this vacation that he's taking? Where is he going?" She blurted out, and Jimin pursed his lips into a line, feeling his palms start to grow sweaty.

"Has he not told you, Seoyeon-ah?" Jimin questioned her as she slowly shook her head, gulping nervously. "Have you noticed the moving boxes lying around, scattered in his office?"

She felt her heartbeat start to beat slowly at his words. She nodded her head, "but he said he was just going on vacation—"

"He's going to work abroad, Seoyeon-ah." Jimin cut her to the chase and she felt her heart drop. "He was offered a big job with big money all the way in Rome. He took the offer."

"B-But why did he tell me that it was just a vacation?" She whispered, and he pulled his hood up to cover his hair once again, to say hidden. She furrowed her eyebrows as he shrugged his shoulders.

"That's something for him to tell you, Seoyeon-ah." He replied, "I should go now, I have errands to run and—"

"When is he leaving?" She asked, and Jimin was already walking away from her. She felt frustrated and angry that he wasn't giving her answers, and she found herself running after him again.

Jimin ran, and she caught up to him because of her determination to find out where Jungkook was at, when he was leaving, and all the other questions that were left unanswered.

"Jimin-ah, when is he leaving?" She took a hold of him just in case that he wouldn't run off again.

"I'm going to be so dead, Seoyeon-ah." Jimin sighed, shaking his head. "Just told tell him that I told you this information and that you found out from someone else."
