BETRAYED [TWICE MINA X BTS JIMIN X TWICE MOMO]

Chapter 9 - Breaking News

Unwilling, I press back out of her hold. My head bowed, unable to lift my shameful face to hers. "Momo?" She says worried. My heart hurts as I know I don't deserve her kindness or concern.  

All of a sudden, "Ouch." I wince, as a tingling sensation resonates on my cheek. "I've had enough. You are to tell me now! Why the hell are you crying? This is not like, not at all. I'm getting really sick of this beating around the bush approach. You have only one choice you tell me this instant!" Dahyun growls, as she squishes my cheeks.

I snap my eyes to hers. So serious and intense, this is literally the time I have ever witnessed this side to her. It's refreshing and makes me smile. But the longer I look over her, my smile surely fades. I open my mouth slightly, trying to blurt out a sentence or form words to make her know that I'm okay.

But.... but....  I can't. "It's my fault." I breakdown once again.

"Your fault?" Dahyun confused. I just nodded, as the words to reply get caught in the back of my throat. "Momo?... What are you talking about?

I sob, "I-I-I'm the re-reason Mina isn't here!" Dropping my gaze from her.

"Huh? No your not, she is just taking a break."

"I slept with Jimin~" I finally broke my silence, crying uncontrollably. I felt Dahyun, pull away from me. "You what?" 

"I love him." I confess. "I love him~"

"Are you saying you slept with Jimin? Mina's Jimin?" She asked in disbelief. I nodded, "Yes." Confirming her confused mind.

END FLASHBACK

==========================

Ever since that day Dahyun has kept her distance. Now and then she gives me a disapproved look whenever Mina walks in the room. I try ignoring it by immersing myself into my practices and other activities. But in the back of my mind the thought still lingers. I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering what I did. I knew the very moment any of the girls were to find out, it would turn out something like this. I'm just grateful that during work hours, Mina treats me just like she always has. And just for that speckle of a moment it feels like I have my best friend.

I feel my emotions try to surface, but I fight desperately to suppress them, knowing very well it was all artificial.

Suddenly, I feel someone nudge me softly. "Momo, is it okay if you help us with the time for some of the moves." Chaeyoung asks, a little skittish.

"Ahh, yeah sure." I say promptly. I quickly shake my head, getting me back into the mindset of perfecting this dance.

MINA POV

In the corner of my eye I see Momo helping Chaeyoung. Which in a weird, twisted way is relieving, don't ask me why. People call me a real push-over, which in this case brings truth to the statement, but what can I do? I have no other choice, do I? I mean do I risk, going on alone without these girls? Starting a solo career? 

"Ughhh." I sigh in utter frustration, as tassel my hands through my hair.

"Ah, Mina. Are you okay?" Chaeyoung calls out concerned. I look up in her direction and see both, her and Momo staring at me. I just smile a wry smile. "I'm fine." Chaeyoung smiles back and giggles,  before grabbing the attention of Momo back to her. 

JUNGKOOK POV

Everyday since the news broke out about the spilt between Mina and Jimin. The atmosphere around Big Hit Entertainment, has been somewhat gloomy. The staff are to scared to talk to Jimin, even our members don't want to approach him, fearing that if they do, they would get their heads bitten off. Which for me, I don't really care, I want nothing more to do with that selfish prick. I tolerate him for the time being, only because I promised her I would.

FLASHBACK

                                                               ***BREAKING NEWS***

*Mina and Jimin have called it quits, after being together for 5 long years. Just 3 days after rumors starting circulating of the recent split, when photo's of the pair were removed from Mina's social media accounts and vice versa on Jimin's. Fan's were in an uproar of uncertainty. But, confirmation has come from a statement released by both JYP Entertainment and Big Hit Entertainment. Stating, "That at this critical time in both Mina and Jimin's lives. Would everyone including tabloids, news outlets and other social media platforms, please respect the privacy of our idols. In due time the pair will come forth in their own time and discuss the reasoning behind the break up. So please until the times come, we would really appreciate all the love and support you have towards the both of them. Thank you."*

                                                       ******************************

I grab the remote that was sitting next on the arm rest next to Mina and turn the Television off. "Why do you torture yourself, by watching that rubbish?" I questioned. She just lowered her gaze to the floor. "I'm not going back on what I said. I will always be here for you Mina. You can count on me!." I say hyped, as I try and lighten the mood, making Mina smile.

"Thanks Jungkook." She says pleased, with my pathetic attempt. I then walk over to where she is sitting and plonk myself beside, with the remote in hand, I place it between us. Mina stares at me, with wondering eyes. She seems a tad flustered, as to what exactly am I doing, making me giggle. "You know, with that look on your face. It's seems as if you don't want me sitting here." I smirk. She then, swiftly diverts her eyes away, adjusting herself in her seat. "Don't be stupid." She blushes. Making me crack up laughing, until my sides, and cheeks hurt and the tears started to well up on the outside corner of my eyes.

"You're just too cute!" I blurt out, while in the middle of my hysterical laughter. But then, Mina looks at me with sadden eyes, bring me to a halt. She begins to shy away. "I'm not cute." She says, really disheartened. 

As I look over her and just see that her once radiant self, was becoming dimmer and dimmer, as time passed. I wanted so much for it to return. And yes, yes Sana keeps nagging and saying just give her time, she will come back to her once chirpy self. And I know that she will, but seriously I really hate seeing her in this way. She is so beautiful and unsure of herself.

END FLASHBACK

While walking the corridors of Big Hit Entertainment, I can't help but ponder on the thought of what if, what if the awkwardness I feel around Jimin, is what Mina and Sana are feeling around Momo. My heart feels so heavy every single time that thought crosses my mind. I just truly hope that one day sooner than later well will see that light return within her, and when that time does come, I want to be there the moment it does.

A/N: I'm so sorry this has taken super duper long to publish. I promise I will make the next chapter even better. I'm currently working on it now.
