"Geez... just thinking about taking that girl in front of all those guys. It must look like we are her slaves, not friends." Sunmi also said while frustration taking over her head.

"Oh really, Is that hurt the pride of you two this much."

A cold shiver runs through the spine of Sunmi and Soyeon, knowing very well the owner of that voice.

"I never knew that you two would eventually end up bitching about me," Jieun said while making her way in front of those two and also crossing her hands to show that how much their words irritate the fuck out of her brain.

"S...Sorry Sorry. Ji-Eun, I didn't say anything about you. It was...It was about that girl. We were wondering why you let her get off the hook that easily." Sunmi tried to change the topic.

"Cause we were in public, and I don't want to do something which can ruin my reputation," Jieun said, still sounding irritated as hell.

"Oh, see Soyeon, I was telling you. Of course, Jieun, you are wise and beautiful at the same time. How come we forgot that we are in public? H..ha...ha..h..ha.."

"Shut Up bitch! Stop acting all good and supportive after all things you've said earlier. But one thing you said is exact I am wise and pretty all at the same time. So be thankful that I didn't let you two kick out of my group. Or the least attention you are getting from guys would also turn into embarrassment.

"We are sorry. Jieun." Both girls said in unison and dropped their heads in front of her.

Ji-Eun smirked, looking at them as they both are ready to be on knees at one voice of her.

"How bad I want if you two are that damn Taehyung?"

"WHAT??" Both again said together.

"Are you mentioning the college ETHEREAL BEAUTY ICON ANGEL Kim Taehyung?" Soyeon said while Jieun scoffed at the designation.

"Yes, I am mentioning that stupid, dumb Taehyung. He just acts all innocent and kind, but deep down, I know he is not who he pretends to be. I mean, anyone can be him only if..." Ji-Eun stopped.

"Only if... what?"

"Only if they have Jeongguk as their boyfriend," Jieun smirked at the thought of being wrapped by the handsome guy she encountered in the cafeteria.

"Are you talking about Jeongguk sunbae, who is dating Taehyung?"

"Ofc silly. Who am I gonna supposed to talk about when I am mentioning that brat Taehyung?"

"Jieun, Jeongguk sunbae will kill us all if he saw us or heard us talking like that about his boyfriend," Sunmi said while fear engulfing him about the thought of the dark stories she heard about the ravenette.

"I heard that he was the satan of this college from the sophomore year, and every student was afraid of him as hell. He used to call the biggest bully of this college. He never spared any of college students. It's like he always finds a target to bully the next day. If he wants anyone on his knees, trust me, he made them. Once a guy in the college dared to talk back on him, and the next day everyone found him limping on the college trash yard." Sunmi said while entirely horrified by the idea of Jieun hitting on Jeongguk.

"It was not until Taehyung sunbae, and Jeongguk sunbae met at the party, and some said they get along well from that day. After that, Jeongguk even stopped bullying others. It was like Taehyung changed him for good and saved all the college from the satan himself." Soyeon said while smiling like a fangirl over their ship.

"Tsk, why haven't you joined Taehyung already and become his puppet ?" Jieun scoffed, obviously irritated by the mention of the said male.

"I want Jeongguk, and that's what it matters. I don't care what his past was and all. I just want him. Just imagine how powerful I am gonna look when the most handsome guy of this college gonna walk by my side, having his hands around my waist." Jieun started daydreaming again. Sunmi and Soyeon looked at Jieun in pity and how bad they wanted to stop Jieun, but since she is being like this, there is no turning back.

[There are so many time shifts I will be mentioning them but still don't try to get confused.]

PRESENT DAY [3 days before their farewell party]

The doorbell beeped only to awaken a sleeping Jin from his bed.

"Ugh! Who on this earth is gonna kicked out from their house at this hour?" Jin said while scrunching his eyes.

He opened the door only to find a teary Taehyung crying, nose red, and hairs all ruffled. If not for the situation and his sobs. He looked like he came from saving his ass after a good fuck.

"Oh my, Taehyung, what happened?" Jin said, immediately hugging Tae.

"C..Can I come inside?"

"Ofc why are you even asking? Come in." Jin said while concern laced on his face.

Jin made Tae sat on his couch and went to the kitchen. Within 2 minutes, he was again in front of Tae with a hot bowl of soup cause he was shivering too much from the cold.

"Tae, drink this and tell me everything from the start," Jin said.

"I... I don't know Hyung when did all this start. I went to Jimin's dorm for one month to help him arranging his dorm. But after I came from there, Jeongguk started behaving differently, and also he started avoiding my calls and... hic... started sleeping in a different room, not talking with me on anything. I don't know what did I do. Today when I went to our apartment after buying things from the mart. I saw... hic.c..c" Tae started crying while covering his face to stop his muffled voice.

Jin put his hands on Tae's shoulder in a comforting way while patting and questioning if he was okay to continue. Tae nodded and said, " I saw him lying on the bed while half-naked, and there was a girl who was on top of him while wearing those lingerie." Jin's eyes widened in shock. He knew Jeongguk too. Tae and Gguk were like his brothers. He almost raised them those four years of their college as Jin was in the 3rd year when they both entered the college. He saw all of them. Their proposal, fights, make-up [not sexual one ofc], and then dealing with problems together but he never knew that this was something could be possible. Jeongguk was bi, but that never came when he lived with Tae. Somehow after meeting Tae, he stopped seeing girls. They just didn't concern him at all. And now, when Tae is saying something like that, it was sure suspicious.

"Tae, are you sure? It was Jeongguk, or maybe it was not made up."

Taehyung raised his head and stared at Jin like how bad he wanted him to be proved wrong.

"There were marks on her like bruises. He didn't even explain anything, Hyung. Instead, he walked away from there as I am the outsider one. He didn't even try to stop me when I was leaving the house after a fight. He even said that I am not that important, and this was first. It never happened like this before hyung." Tae was crying his heart out. Jin hugged the fragile boy while patting on his shoulder.

"What is working in your mind, Jeongguk?" Jin mumbled in his thoughts.

Hii guys, I hope you are enjoying the story. The only thing which made me a little insecure about this book is there are many time shifts. Even though I mentioned them. But so many time turns makes it look more like a twisted story. So just for a simplification...

The para written as "PRESENT DAY" are actually from the time after Tae came back from Jimin's dorm and Farewell party is near.

The para written as "Three months" are mostly the scenes covering Tae and Gguk past scenes when they were happy couple whereas the para written as "ONE MONTH" are from the time when Jieun tries to become a third wheel.

This is the help-guide for this book so that my dear readers don't feel confused over the story. Don't be a silent reader. I love to hear your opinions on the story.

Bye Bye...💜💜
