Ignore mistakes, please

Third person P.O.V

"Where are you going?"

Taehyung slowly turned back with his confused self but his confusion disappeared when Seoyun almost threw herself over him, a little jerk and she was completely over him.

"I also like you Tae... you are so sweet." She mumbled while hugging him very tightly. Happiness? Well, it was at its peak with a hint of confusion now.

Was it that easy?

"It's a yes.. of course." She beamed, pulling back and out of the blue pinched Taehyung's cheek playfully to which finally the male fell in reality.

He blinked many times before letting out a little giggle to which Seoyun joined and again shortly hugged him. "Th- thank you Seoyunie," Taehyung mumbled, a warmth spreading over his body as she giggled as well.

She now pulled back completely and cocked her brow with an amused look.

"Seoyunie? Hmm?" It was odd that Taehyung was the one to blush at the moment while Seoyun stood there full of confidence.

"Aww, you're getting red. Omg~ you're so cute." The girl squealed and again pinched his cheeks.

"I- I'm not cute ok. I'm handsome." Taehyung quickly defended himself, putting on a very stern look but failing cutely as she let out a few giggles in the act. Being embarrassed, he brought his hand up to scratch his neck but instead he found his hand busy carrying the box.

"Oh- I almost forgot about that. I bought this for you." Taehyung quickly said and stretched his hand for the girl to accept the gift. Her eyes gleamed with happiness when she grabbed the box.

She opened it in an instant and breathed out with wide eyes. "Wow. That's- that's a beautiful one." Using her fingers to feel the bracelet under, she gasped. 

"You like it?" Taehyung asked softly though her reaction was clear, still, he wanted to hear it out loud.

Seoyun nodded her head in a daze. "That's pretty. Thank you so much, Tae." She mumbled with a smile, took it out of the box, and quickly wrapped it around her wrist, completely matching and looking very perfect in Taehyung's eyes.

He opened his mouth to compliment her but someone called out for Seoyun and she waved at him before going to the person, leaving him at the place all for himself.

Looking at the girl of his dreams, he let out a sigh of relief, and a smile formed on his face.

"Yes!" He suddenly let out a happy yell, jumping on the floor, hand flying in the air but regretting it later when his wrist hurt at the moment. But was he ready for a bad mood? Nah- he ignored that and happily walked back to the main hall to join his friends.

Semie was the one to scold him, saying that he missed the appreciation speech from the CEO but he care less. She couldn't do much when she noticed the gleam in his eyes.

Time was passing quickly and Taehyung was silently enjoying the night as Semie once again ditched him, leaving him with mute Minho.

Taehyung was getting bored now, roaming his eyes in the hall with a pout but when his eyes fell on a specific someone, a smirk of victory formed on his pink lips as he quickly got up from the chair, partially startling Minho.

With a look of newly formed confidence in his mind, he marched to the man in a suit and stood right behind him. "You should look at her wrist. She accepted that and also-." He leaned forward to the other's ear a bit, his breath fanning over the other's skin. "She clearly confessed back this time." Taehyung completed that and moved back to see the expressions of the other. He was expecting a scowl or clenched jaw... but to his surprise, the CFO was smiling at him.

"I see Kim. Congratulations." Jungkook gently replied back and excused himself from the place, leaving a bit dumbfounded Taehyung.

Taehyung huffed in disappointment at the lack of response but he quickly scolded himself.

She isn't some sort of game for you that you are bragging about winning.

He lightly slapped his own forehead and walked back to the previous seat, not forgetting to cover his ruined suit.

It was getting late so he decided to go back to his house. He called for Semie to inform her and was about to leave when his phone buzzed in his pocket. Groaning a bit, he pulled out the phone to check the msg but a deep frown made its way to his smooth features on reading the msg.

Unknown

You might not want to miss the scene happening in the parking lot of the restaurant.

10:23 pm

He tried to ignore the msg but his phone again buzzed.

Unknown

Your so-called Crush is with someone else.. Don't miss it.

10:23 pm

His heart started thumping loudly at that and without having another thought, he was already walking to the parking lot, which was almost empty. He sighed in relief and was about to leave while cursing himself for believing in some random msg but halted when he heard a faint sound.

Sound like.... moaning.

"It can't be." He muttered under his breath and thought to ignore it but a female voice again stopped him... like pulling him back.

With his slightly shaky legs, he walked to the area from where the voice was coming. Hiding behind a pillar, he peeked his head out, only to feel heartbroken.

There was Seoyun in his front view, hugging someone while kissing the male, moaning here and there.

Taehyung's hands clenched into fists at the sight. How much he wanted to go there and throw the male back.

What if he is molesting her? Should I help her?

Sudden thoughts to help her merged in his mind but he couldn't step forward when he felt that it wasn't forced.

He felt his hands shaking with anger and sadness but all he could do was watch them from the distance.

With an aching heart, he saw how her hand fisted the coat of the man kissing her, making Taehyung's chest clench in pain. He couldn't take the sight anymore and rushed out of the parking lot.

His legs were running very quickly as he forgot about his injury from a few days back until he almost tripped on the road because of the excessive amount of pressure he was putting on his legs.

Ignoring everything, he quickly helped himself with the help of the wall... eyes stinging on the still lingering sight. He didn't know how he managed to reach his house again and locked his room the instant he entered it. All he could feel was the coldness, in his surroundings and in his heart.

Was he being used?

He threw the clothes on the bed and changed into his own comfy ones but couldn't feel comfy at all. There was no warmth, just gloominess pushing him into the darkness. 

Ironic- how much happy he was before leaving the room and now? He was feeling all shattered.

Tears flow down from his eyes making him angry as he always used to get compliments for being weak but he just can't help it.. you know.

The long night came to an end but he just couldn't blink for the whole night. At noon, he decided to get his body up, needing to return the suit back to have security.

With a tired body, he walked downstairs to see his uncle busy in a sort of argument with his aunt. His mood was already ruined, so he silently left the house and took the bus that dropped him at the nearest station to the shop.

In the whole commotion from the previous night, he forgot about the big stain on the expensive suit. Once he entered the shop, the same lady greeted him.

"I'm here to return it," Taehyung said softly, putting the bag on the counter.

That lady grabbed the bag and quickly opened it to observe the suit for any kind of damage while Taehyung was looking into the void.

"Sir! This is ruined." He was brought back when he heard the words. In confusion, he looked down and gasped in horror.

"We can't take it back now. As you already know the terms and conditions. This should be clean and unharmed as we gave it to you. Now, as it is completely ruined, we can't take it back." She said professionally and Taehyung blinked to understand the situation.

"So, I'm not getting back the security?" He mumbled out innocently but that kind lady frowned at that.

"Not only security, but you've to pay more for the compensation." Here goes his heart.

"W- what?"

"Yes. This suit is of an expensive brand. It cost 800 dollars. Your security is only 10% means 80 dollars. You've to pay the rest or else-"

Taehyung gulped down...

'"Else??"

She breathed out in sadness and showed him the paper printed with terms and conditions.

He read that and felt his body shaking with fear.

Jail? Scamming?

"B- but that was completely a mistake! I- I didn't do that on purpose." He shrieked out but she snatched the paper from him.

"I'm sorry, you were already given that paper to read out the conditions. That's not our fault that you missed it."

Taehyung felt like crying. He didn't have that much money left in his account after that expensive gift. Also, he wasn't getting paid for about 20 days. What he could do?

"Can I've some other way?" He asked but the lady sighed and shook her head.

"You've time till tomorrow. If you won't pay the amount, we will have no other choice except to involve the police." Hearing the name of the police made his knees weak in fear. He can't risk that much. It will directly affect his job and whole life.

"Pl- please.. give me some time." The whole situation was nerve-wracking, dragging him on the verge of crying again. Why life was so rude to him?

"Fine. Two days... make sure to bring the money in two days. Also, you can't be running away as we already have your personal information." Taehyung nodded lightly and walked out of the shitty place.

"Could it be worse?"
