Effort
Jennie's POV
"Yah, did Taehyung did something wrong? Seeing you following him around is creepy," a huge smile escaped my lips as I heard Hobi oppa's words. He looked suspecting and I grin.
"Aniyo, I'm just making up to him. Taehyung-ah!" I screamed as I follow the frantic boy towards the back of the house.
"Jennie, keep it down. Ashton is sleeping," I heard Chaeyoung and I gave her a peace sign which she returned with a long sigh before closing Jimin and her room.
A week ago, Chaeyoung had given birth to baby Ashton. To say that everything is a mess was an understatement.
Chaos had been everywhere but we're all happy. Ashton after all, is a gift to us from above.
And momentarily, I forgot my mission on having Taehyung back. We were all focused on tending Chaeyoung and Ashton, I was distracted.
But now that Chaeyoung had been a little sensitive, we were trying to give them space which made me remember what I was supposed to do.
Taehyung, he was avoiding me like crazy. The moment I enter the room, he leaves. But that won't stop me. All I did was try to be sweet to him. And every time that I do, he runs away.
You can't always run from me.
Of course, the others noticed but they thought I was doing it on purpose to annoy Taehyung.
I can even remember his words when I declared that I'm getting him back.
"Jennie, let's not do this. I can't afford to get hurt once again simply because you can't decide what you really want,"
And then he walked out and followed the boys. I was hurt but I understood. He was hurt and that's because of me.
"Taehyung, do you wanna eat some icecream?" I exclaimed, my face stretched into a huge smile and I saw Jisoo unnie raising an eyebrow.
She knew what I was doing.
"I'm full Jennie," he answered before checking his phone.
I felt my stomach churning. I would be lying if I say I am not hurting by what he was doing but it was my fault, to begin with. He is just protecting himself.
But he said he will wait..
I put on a fake smile and look at him. "Even with strawberry ice cream?"
"Even..." he whispered and I pouted, my shoulders slumped and I suddenly felt down.
It's almost two weeks and they will be back in Korea. If we don't makeup now, I'll have to wait a few more weeks before I see him again.
Just thinking about it makes me even sadder.
"How about some burger?" I tried once again and I heard him let out a sigh.
"Stop pestering me, Jennie,"
"Taehyung-ah, you're being too mean," Jin oppa exclaimed and I just smiled.
"It's okay oppa. I am being nosy. Hmm, I suddenly felt sleepy,"
Slowly, I walked back and headed to my room, my insides feeling a little weird.
Once I reached my room, I plopped my body on my bed, stomach first.
"Why can't he forgive me?" I whispered.
I have put down my pride. I was running around following him but he doesn't give me a chance.
I thought he loves me. And he basically told me he'll wait.
"Why did you give up easily?" I whispered, a tear unknowingly falling down on my cheek.
"Aren't you doing the same?" I was startled when I heard his voice. Immediately, I bolted out of my bed and sat down, my body facing his.
"Jisoo told me to follow you. She was bugging me like crazy so I did. Why did you have to tell her when we're over?" his voice a little pissed and that caught me off-guard. He was looking at me coldly and every word pierced my heart like a bullet.
Where is my Taehyung?
A few months, that's what it took for him to change.
His eyes, the usual spark, and happiness I see whenever he stares at me were gone. Instead, it was clear, like no emotion was showing from it at all.
"I'm sorry..." I whispered. For a second, I thought I saw sadness flashing on his face but it was brief.
Impossible.
He didn't even try the food I prepared for him the other day, nor tasted the macaroons I baked.
He didn't join when I asked to group for a late movie night.
He didn't smile when I did my aegyo which I did even though it's embarrassing.
He never did any of the usual things he's done when he was with me.
So why would he be sad?
"For what? For what's happening to us?" he scoffed and I bite my lower lip.
Why is he being mean?
"I'm sorry things didn't work out. But I'm trying now," I know I sounded weak but I want this.
"I want you back. Can't we be like how we used to?" I asked, longing can be heard in my own voice.
He stared at me intently.
"What, so you can hurt me again?" he asked accusingly.
"I miss you," I whispered, I looked down on my hands. I was fidgeting.
Why am I getting really nervous?
He's just Tae, my Tae...
"I miss us. Don't you miss me too?" I asked, lifting my gaze to meet his.
My chest tightened as I saw him avoiding my gaze.
"How can there be us when all you think about is them?" he whispered.
A soft whimper escaped my lips.
He wouldn't take me back.
When we were together, I've set my priorities, even setting the bar too high. But I left him out. That one person who never left me, who always cared for me...
I forgot to put him on the list.
I always thought he'll just be there...
I forgot the fact that he can also leave. And now that he's left, I want him back.
"What do you want me to do?" by this time, I was already crying. Slowly, I stood up from my bed and walked towards him.
He looked conflicted which gave me a spark of hope.
"Jennie, let's stop this. I-" he stopped midway and looked at me. "I'll go," he stated before turning around and I run towards him, my arms wrapped around his waist.
"Can't I have my GUCCI back?" my voice cracked, tears now streaming down my cheeks.
"Please..."
This is painful. I know I missed him and I was hurting but my heart feels like it's going to explode any minute. I feel so helpless.
I felt him turn around, releasing my arms from his body.
"Jennie," he called my name, not Nini, or GUCCI like how he used to.
His eyes were red.
Was he crying too?
I was startled when I felt his hands cupping my cheeks.
"We can't do this anymore. Just because you miss me now doesn't mean when can go back to how we used to be," he whispered and I cried even more.
"I will always be here if you need me. Stop crying okay?" he leaned closer and kissed my forehead.
This is really it huh?
I didn't know how long it was but we stayed like this until for how long.
My arms wrapped around him and him doing the same.
You fucked up Jennie. And now you're suffering.
Slowly, I felt him removed his hands from me, and he did the same with my own.
"Go to sleep," he whispered and I felt his hands gently messing up my hair.
I'm still crying.
When he turned his back, that's when I spoke.
"I won't give up," I told him. "Just because you told me to doesn't mean I'll surrender. I will have you back. I will do whatever it takes so I can have you again,"
He reached for the doorknob and opened it.
"Try it then. Though I doubt you'd make me change my mind,"
And then he left. I was left standing, heartbroken, and in pain.
This is so frustrating.
Taehyung, what do I need to do to have you again?
