Taehyung chugged another glass of wine. It's been almost an hour since he get in this bar. People around him dancing as the music blow loudly.
Taehyung is frustrated with everything and that's include the eye contact between him and his ex. He really can't stop thinking the possibility of Jimin being married.
Though definitely not with Jungkook. That's just ridiculous. Hyunmin just told him that she only have one parents. But again, it's not impossible for Jimin and Jungkook just meet.
It's hurt his mind to think everything that worry him. What make him frustrated was that everything is about Jimin. Why should he worried about his ex? They're not together anymore.
For fuck sake!
He hadn't been sleeping in this past few days. His students also notice. The worry and concern voice of them asking him if he's alright. Not exactly asking, they're just—
"Taetae are you okay?"
"Yesh taetae! You wook tiwed!"
"Taetae become a panda" the kid giggle.
Taehyung just shook his head everytime they voice their concern. Telling them he is okay, everytime. He find himself waiting for someone everytime he wait for Jungkook with Hyunmin.
As if the person will also come with Jungkook. But they didn't. That make Taehyung more confuse. Angry even, but at himself. For still looking for the person who didn't want him anymore.
Why was it's so hard to move on? He thought he already move on. He was proven wrong when he just catch a glimpse of Jimin. His fucking ex.
Everytime Taehyung see him, he will just start thinking about their moment together when they're still in relationship.
Jimin's kiss, Jimin's hug, Jimin's gentle voice, Jimin's presence, Jimin's warmth. Everything about Jimin, he can't get it out of his head.
Too deep in love. Even after they broke up. He can't stop thinking how they meet and how they broke up. All if this feel like a dream. A bad dream that he wish to wake up from.
"Hey Tae" someone greet him from behind. Taehyung turn around dazedly. Already tipsy from all the wine. He squint his eyes, trying to see clearly or at least remember who he invited.
"Ah Namjoon" he greet back when he can see who it is. Turning back to the counter, chugging another glass.
Namjoon frown, looking at Taehyung. It's been a long time since Taehyung went to a bar, let alone getting drunk like this. The last time he drink like this was when he broke up with Jimin.
Namjoon didn't know what happen to Taehyung in the past few days. Namjoon know he can just ask what happen since Taehyung is drunk and will probably pour his heart out with him like he always do when he's drunk but he doesn't want to do that.
He want to ask Taehyung himself and let the younger tell him willingly. He know Taehyung didn't like to tell his friends his problems and definitely won't like the idea he tells a person his problems in his unconscious mind state.
So right now, Namjoon just sit beside Taehyung and order his drink. Waiting Taehyung to be done and help him to get back. He was too drunk to drive by himself.

Jungkook just got back from his works, they went to a store to buy groceries after Jungkook pick up Hyunmin. She sit on the passenger seat while rumbling about her day.
Jungkook was smiling hearing she talk. When they stop at the nearby store, Jungkook get them off and went to the store.
By the time they was done, Hyunmin was skipping excitedly towards the car, holding an ice cream cone in her hands. Jungkook shook his head and open the door. He help her get inside and wear the seatbelt.
When they're home, Jungkook put down all the groceries while Hyunmin watch him on the counter, swinging her legs and continue her story even though she know Jungkook won't focus on her.
The time she stop stalking as her story come to an end, Jungkook already done with the groceries.
Jungkook walk towards her and pick her up from the counter and sit her down on the chair. Jungkook sit beside her and run his finger through her hairs.
"Hyunie, go and wash up, we will go somewhere"
Hyunmin gasp and look at her Appa. "Where?!" She asked excitedly. Jungkook chuckle and ruffle her hairs.
"Uncle Jimin invite us to a dinner" Jungkook answer, smiling at his daughter. Hyunmin clap her hands and run to her room to wash up.
Jungkook follow behind her.
>>>
"Appa! Done!" Jungkook take the towel and past it to Hyunmin. She wrap herself in the towel and walk out.
Jungkook help her dry herself before choosing her clothes. "Do you want to wear this?" Jungkook show her a skirt and a sweater.
Hyunmin pout and point at the skirt before shaking her head. "Don't want"
"Ah, okay" Jungkook nod, putting back the skirt before open the wardrobe wider. "Come here, choose your clothes"
Jungkook pick her up, letting Hyunmin look for her own clothes. "That!" She pointed at the white pants. Jungkook take it and hand it to her before putting her down.
Jungkook also get himself done. He didn't want to overdressed but he was going out with Jimin. Park Jimin for sake. He need to be presentable, at least.
Jungkook fix his hair one more time and look at Hyunmin who was playing with her handbag, spinning around and do a post in front of the mirror.
Jungkook chuckle and click a few pictures of Hyunmin and make himself seen on the mirror. "You ready?" He asked, fixing her coat.
She nod excitedly and take her Appa's hands, bouncing on the ball of her feet. "Let's go!" She shout, smiling.

Jimin send the location to Jungkook's number, waiting in the restaurant, tapping his finger on the table, looking around.
He look at his watch, it's only been a minute since he got here. Why was he so impatient? He was excited to see Jungkook, the person he see everyday. What's different?
He didn't think this was a date either. Nope. He didn't think that. He was just having a dinner with his friend.
Right? Right!
Maybe he is excited to see Hyunmin? Yeah, that makes sense. The last time he spent his time with her, she was so cute, kind and she's pretty. Like her dad.
What?
Jimin flinch when he heard his phone's notification. He read the text. ‹Oh, they're here!›
Jimin raise his head and look around, he catches a familiar face, a smile paint his face unconsciously. Jungkook also notice the older but before he can feel anything, Hyunmin already dragging.
"There, there, Appa! Uncle Minnie!"
Jungkook hummed and let his daughter drag him. When they arrive at where Jimin seated, Jungkook and Jimin bow lightly. Hyunmin, who see what they did, also bow, almost hitting her head in the table.
Jungkook pick her up and makes she sit on the chair beside him. "Hello Hyunmin-ie" Jimin greeted the little.
The girl wave back at Jimin. "Hello uncle Minnie"
Jimin smile at her and look at the two. "Here, make an order"(?) Jimin passed the menu. Jungkook take the menu and discuss with his daughter what they want to eat today.
They order, Jimin and Jungkook start talking while Hyunmin was colouring the book she brought everytime they went out.
Somewhere in the middle, Jimin start a conversation with Hyunmin and they talk with each other, giggling.
Jungkook look at them, smiling. Their orders arrived. They eat while throwing a random conversation with each other, even Hyunmin enjoy herself.
By the time they got home, it's already late.

Jimin look at the mirror as he discard the watch, tie and contact lenses, putting them down on their perspective place.
He went to the shower and get ready for bed. Before he close his eyes, he take his phone and scroll through his gallery.
They take a lot of pictures. Jimin smile at Jungkook's picture of him crunching his nose. Hyunmin's wide smile, he can hear her giggle.
But then, his smile dimmed, eyes going teary as the next photos was him and Taehyung's. They look happy. He wonder if they will ever be happy with each other again.
He was confuse by his own feelings right now. One moment, he was crying over Taehyung, refuse to move on. Another moment, he was talking with Hyunmin fondly, smiling at Jungkook.
What was he supposed to feel? Was this normal? Is this how he supposed to feel?
