"What are you doing?" Jimin turned to Rose who was with Jia in the backseat.

"Going to the park. Jia wanted me to come, right Jia?" She smiled and Jia giggled.

Jimin turned back to the steering wheel with a scowl, driving them to the nearest park. Unlike other parks, the park was empty with people.

It had wild rides, Claw machines, different activity boots, Karaoke for kids, an ice cream store and different fun facilities.

"Where are all the kids?" Rose looked around, noticing how empty the place looked.

"I rented it for a day" Jimin smiled at Jia, carrying her up. "Which one do you want to play with first, Jia"

"You rented it!. That's heartbreaking, other kids would've wanted to play too. And Jia would love to have a play partner. Right Jia" Rose stated.

"Alright. Guards, you can let all the kids in for free" Jimin gestured for the guards, and the gates of the park were open. Different kids rushing to whatever activity spot.

"Yayy" Jia jumped excitedly.

Jimin and Rose took Jia to the swing first, where she demanded that they both push her, and they did.

"Omma, Appa. Why don't you kiss?. That boys parents just kissed over there. Do you hate each other, do you hate me?" She pouted, pointing over to the boy's parents.

Rose smiled, "We're in a public space Jia. We love you so much okay?" But Jia folded her arms and looked away, not understanding.

Jimin smiled, held Rose's arms then whispered "Don't worry, your secret boyfriend isn't watching" he then kissed her plump lips.

"I don't have a secret boyfriend" She cut the kiss short, whispering back to him.

"Are you happy now?" Jimin said, pulling Rose's waist to his side.

"Yes, super happy. Can I go play with them, they're calling me to Join them" Jia pointed to the three kids playing hide and seek, Rose nodded and she left.

Rose and Jimin watched Jia run around with her new friends. Jimin was still brewing with anger, and sat in an opposite direction to hers.

"What were you doing?. I told you I didn't have any secret boyfriend" Rose asked Jimin, her voice increasing.

"I don't care. But wait, Why are you so after him?. Does he have more money than I have?, Or is he nicer?. I know we haven't exactly gotten along because it's a marriage of convenience, but at least I didn't cheat" Jimin replied, clearly disheartened.

Rose stood up, "Do you even trust me?. I told you that I didn't cheat but you refused to trust me. And if you don't care, why are you asking about him?. I thought you were different Jimin, I thought you wouldn't judge me like others did, but you did. I expected you to trust me and not some tabloids. Weren't we friends from high school?, Till you decided to travel to another country for college?"

Tears started dripping from her eyes, but she continued "And yet, even if you know me so well, you still don't trust me. Maybe we should reduce the date of our divorce. From a one year contract to a six months contract instead" She finally let it out and rushed to the restroom, breathing in and out.

Flashback

"Hyah!, Minmin!" Teenage Rose chased after him in the school's garden, she had just written a love confession to a popular guy in the school.

And he wasn't going to let go of her, without making fun of her "Dear Taehyung" he stopped reading once he heard that name. It was his half brother she was writing the letter to.

"Hyah!, Minmin!" She shouted, seeing as he angrilly tore the papers to bits.

"Why do you like him?, What do you see in him?. He's a playboy on adrenaline" He said, almost sounding like a scolding.

"He's your brother, don't talk about him like that"

"Yes and I love him. But I know what he does, he's only going to play with you. He doesn't deserve this letter" he tossed the pieces in the trash can.

"No, No!, No!" She sobbed, rummaging through the smelly dustbin for the pieces, he restrained her and she cried more.

"Rosie, stop crying. I'm doing this for you" He assured her, wiping her tears.

She scoffed in her sobbing session, "It's Rose not Rosie. Why can't you get it right?"

He then replied her with a chuckle, "it's Jimin too and not Minmin" They both sat down and laughed their intestines out.

After graduation, they both went to their separate colleges but still kept in touch. Not until, Rose stopped getting letters and calls from him.

Till after a year which he told her to stay away from him and never send him letters again, so she stopped and forced herself to forget him completely.

And when they met again, when Jimin had established his make up company, "Mien Cosmetics" and Rose becoming a world star celebrity, they both became strangers to each other.

Not until, their parents decided they were a good match and also Rose fans thought the same. Killing two birds with one stone. And here they were, the worst square one.

Flashback over...

Jia rushed to a fazed out Jimin, who felt guilty as hell, "Appa!, Can I have snacks?. Where's Omma?"

"Uhh, she'll be back. She went to the restroom" He replied her with a faint smile, giving her the wrapped up sandwich Rose packed.

Rosie
I have to leave, I'm having lunch with My Mom. Tell Jia I'll be back home soon.

Jimin saw the text and replied her, "Okay" he couldn't bring himself to say sorry yet, he had something planned instead.

ROSE YOUNG

Rose entered the restaurant her mother said they should meet, it was tranquil and had saxophone playing at the background like a date.

And like every other lunch meeting with her mother, the whole place was rented out. Only used by her and her Mother.

She'd say, "Royalties don't eat with peasants" and she wasn't wrong. Just like the Park Family, the Young Family were South Korean Royalties, known as one of the richest family in Korea.

"Omeoni!" Rose bowed politely, as the standby waiter opened a chair for her, she thanked him, to her mother's distate.

"I already ordered, We're having pasta" As if on cue, the waiters brought their food and left them to eat.

Mrs Young, her mother took a forkful of pasta, "What have you been up to?"

Rose nervously smiled, "Nothing much, I've been going to script readings and meeting directors" She lied gracefully.

Mrs Young stopped eating, and wiped the corner of her faded red lipstick, "And yet, Jennie's topping the polls. If you're going to disgrace our family with your fading career, at least do it right!"

"Omeoni!" She objected.

"And what's this?" Mrs Young tossed the tabloid news of her cheating scandal to her.

"It's not what you think" Rose managed to say, admist stutters.

"I know this body structure, I know this man. Why are you still hanging out with him!. Must you disgrace us like this!" She yelled, slamming her fists to the table.

"Omeoni!, He's your son!. Why do you hate him so much?, Jin is your son!. Have you forgotten that?!. I won't stop loving my brother and hanging out with him, even if you and Abeuji disowned him!"

"I regret adopting you Rose, Maybe you should've stayed in that orphanage as a peasant" Mrs Young spat, regretting it the minute it came out. She left Rose in the restaurant, entering her black car.

KANG JINA

"Annyeong, I forgot my purse last night, can I go get it?. Thanks"... "Ughhh, forget it!" Jina recited to the mirror a thousand times, she had been preparing herself to go get her purse at Taehyung's.

She left her apartment, leaving a sticky note behind for her roommates.

Jina arrived at Taehyung's apartment building, used the elevator to get to his floor. Still shaking with nervousness by the way.

She wanted to knock but she met his door wide open, with classic black shein heels at the foot rack.

Jina's heart sinks as she sees Taehyung and a girl in such an intimate position. She feels like the ground has been pulled out from under her, and she doesn't know what to do. She wants to run away, but she knows she has to face the situation head-on.

She clears her throat, and the couple looks up in surprise. "Jina!" Taehyung exclaims, his face turning red. The girl tries to cover herself up, feigning shame. Jina feels like she's going to faint, but she forces herself to stay strong.

Jina manages to keep her cool, despite the shock of seeing Taehyung and the unknown together.

"I'm sorry I interrupted, I came to get my purse. You can continue" She says, grabbing her purse.

Trying to keep her hands from shaking. She turns to leave, but then she hears Taehyung's voice. "Wait," he says, sounding desperate. Jina turns to face him, her heart pounding. "I can explain," he says, his face full of worry. But Jina doesn't want to hear it. "I don't need an explanation. We're not in a relationship or anything" she says, her voice trembling.

As she walks down the street, Jina can't help but replay the scene over and over in her head "Hyah Jina!, Did you really think he'd like you?. I must have been stupid thinking that" She smacks her own head.

But the thought of Taehyung and some girl together keeps haunting her, no matter how hard she tries to push it away.
