I quickly changed his contact name because the word unknown gave me an online dating app vibes. I designed the contact name in a way that I could remember his identity and relation with Taehyung at all the times while I messaged him. 

Jimin (the one Taehyung fought with)

Me: Park Jimin?

Jimin: You know some other type of Jimin too?

Me: Matter of factly, Jimin is a very common name plus it's unisexual so... I may have a few positive chances of knowing some other Jimin 

Jimin: I'll still prefer to think I'm... unique

Me: But you're basically living a lie

Jimin: Why are you getting so sarcastic today?

You are the real Minhee right?🤨🧐

•••

The question caught me more than just off guard. Rather than questioning his sensibility for asking about my secret dual roleplay, I lightly smacked my head for putting up a flawed show.

Minhee was highlighted as an introvert in Taehyung's memories. Maybe she was the type to talk less. I should keep my sarcastic juices to myself. I took mental notes.

Jimin (the one Taehyung fought with)

Me: Yea

Jimin: What? 

Me: Yea

Jimin: What's up with all these yea yea yea yea yea yea? Are we writing a chorus for some blockbuster song or what? 

Me: Whatever lets you sleep at night

Jimin: Well, I need some sounds other than your yea before sleeping at night

Me: Hm

Jimin: Yes, that one is closer to the sound I'm talking about.

If he thinks I'm not perverted enough to get the references then he should definitely meet Yumi. I was in her bad company for months so I'm well educated about such affairs. 

I really wanted to get in my element and do what I was best at, being sassy, but Taehyung's messed up friendship with Jimin came in my way.

Jimin (the one Taehyung fought with)

Jimin: Hello? Did Taehyung replace you with some doppelganger or something? Why are you being so weird?

Me: Stop shit-talking Park.

You're too old to be acting all cute like a kid when we both know your age.

Also, where would you get my new number from, stalker?

Jimin: You really aren't fine today...

Anyways I have my sources, you don't have to worry about it 😉

Me: And why would you disturb me?

message* me. Autocorrect lol.

Jimin: I was hoping to see you

Me: Keep hoping then. Maybe one day you'll get the chance to see me

Jimin: Great! 

You remember our usual meeting spot? I'll see you there day after tomorrow. I'm slightly busy tomorrow.

Gtg. Bye bae️ ♥️

Me: No, wait dfghdfgh

You don't know what gtg means so you can't go.

Jimin: I'm quick at picking things.😉

You have to come! I'm not taking no.

Me: I'll see

There was something about this guy that intrigued my rebellious side. All I wanted for Christmas was to stand face to face with Jimin and diss him to my heart's will. 

And then there was his dark humor sparkling through his every text which made me question Minhee and Jimin's private life. His way of acknowledging Minhee seemed to hold so many secrets. 

It was unlucky how I had to show interest in unleashing their history. 

The Next Day...

The Jimin guy left me on seen which was actually better than getting a reply. Could be said that he didn't pass my vibe check. I aggressively brushed my teeth and bent down to spit out the excessive, meeting my own reflection in the process. Taehyung was extra happy today which automatically brought a smile to my face.  

His award-worthy smile made me wonder how I could see it everyday, every time. 

The only possible way to keep his vibe alive was by taking his orders seriously and sticking to the guidelines. The dinner invitation was for the evening, to spent my day at the gym with Jungkook appeared to be the best time pass. 

One advantage of having glass doors was that you had the full opportunity to catch someone do something stupid without getting yourself caught in the attempts. As for Jungkook, he had a peculiar habit of lifting some weight and then instantly checking how much it helped his abs develop. 

"Is it still the same disappointment?" I jokingly commented at his under-construction abs. He was flustered and painted in a bright shade of red at my humiliating remark. 

"Says the one who slept while cycling and almost cost us a reflooring." He scrunched up his nose with his bunny teeth on display. I could still remember the day we met for the first time and his front teeth made me believe he was a bunny hybrid. 

Deciding to ignore him I sat on the stationary cycle and began to pedal with all the strength my petite body could muster. He got himself on the treadmill, running beside me to cheer me when I thought of giving up (I gave up despite his enthusiasm) and occasionally declaring a competition.

For a second, I distracted my mind from intently watching his pigtail dance to the motion of his body. He looked cute with the pigtail but the beads of sweat on his face changed the equation. "Jungkook, listen," I called out.

He stopped running like a hamster and looked at me with a face quite similar to the aforementioned creature. "Y/N, speak." He mocked my way of speaking with his special effects that made me sound like if Mona Lisa could speak.  

When I didn't start speaking within 2 seconds, he started running again. "Do you know Jimin?" In a second his body turned to a solid block of ice but the treadmill was still working which resulted in his jaw hitting against the treadmill and soon his body was thrown down to the floor. "The fuck! Are you alive?!" I cursed loudly seeing him fall.

I rushed to turn off the treadmill and then helped him sit up straight. I closely examined his face for any injury but there was just pain, no marks yet. "How'd you know about his existence?" He asked with eyes defying the typical Asian stereotype and growing wider with pain and fear.

"It's not important, you idiot. I would have taken you to see a doctor if Taehyung gave me my salary! What do I do with you now!?" I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration. He made a funnily disgusting face while crying. "Why is Taehyung so irresponsible!? He—" 

"Lady, lemme throw you off a treadmill and then rant about my wife over your dead body. Maybe then you'll understand my pain better." He barked at me with anger and exasperation. "Just get me an ice pack for now!"

"I'm tired." I threw a fit at him but nothing worked when he almost threatened to kill me. I hastily brought the asked item and massaged his jaw. "The Jimin guy, he messaged me yesterday. You know him too?" I said in a way to grab his attention away from the injury to something equally interesting. 

"What did he say!?" The overwhelming emotions made him shoot up his head but he had to be friends with agony while doing that. I pitied him and myself for not being able to do anything.

"Don't move your head, freak!" I yelled at him out of care. I didn't want him to worsen his situation when we both lacked the money for a proper treatment. "He said he wants to meet me at some usual place."

I was well prepared to stop him from jerking his head up but when he tried to sit up straight, I took that as a cue to push his head down. I was very sorry from the bottom of my feet because they were bigger than my heart. "Fuck you! But I know, as a very good girl, you would've said no, right?" He tried to breathe through the pain and prove his masculinity but failed when a tear escaped his eyes.

"I'm not that good now..." I scratched my head and looked away when he appreciated me, "...but we're meeting tomorrow." His eyes ought to pop out of their sockets today but before he could scold me, I spoke out my thoughts. "Okay, keep this a secret until I confirm it but... I have a feeling that Jimin and Minhee had a thing. From my angle, Taehyung doesn't really look like a person who'll go against Minhee's will of not bearing a baby. As for Jimin, don't even get me started—"

"So, you're defending a man you know since a little over half an year just because he looks innocent and doubting the character of a woman whom you have never seen in person because she died before you could and I don't want to go over the reason again. Off you go, Y/N, to be Sherlock Holmes." He had long forgotten the physical pain that mattered nothing in comparison to the waves of emotions. "You're going nowhere."

"But what if she—" He abruptly silenced me by walking away. I had to grab his shirt to stop him. 

"Why would you act like those stupid kids from horror films who go to that place even after seeing a bloody ghost there? God! I always hated those kids but it's not about them it's about you and it's final that you ain't meeting that man. Over!" He slapped my hand away harshly and started walking out. I ran faster than him and acted like a mini barrier in front of him.

He poked his inner cheek with his tongue waiting for me to get out of his way before he lashed me like an angry bull. "Was your brain in your jaw 'cause it isn't working properly right now? You're no one to govern me. Got it?" I said like a rebellious kid.

The last thing I saw was a look of disappointment on his face before he turned to go back to the gym. My heart told me to talk to him but my feet carried me to my room.

In The Evening...

Taehyung and I were perfectly on time at the mentioned venue. We linked our arms together after drawing the inspiration from one of the elderly couples around. "There he is." Taehyung's breath hitched as if he saw the person he was going to confess his feelings to. 

I got almost no time to spot him too before my partner started to drag me or leave me. "Oh, your friend has a red mop on his head!" I exclaimed seeing Hoseok's eye-catching hair colour. Taehyung whispered a 'shut up', which made me laugh more, before he finally tapped on red-headed guy's shoulder.

"Taehyungie!" Hoseok stretched the last syllable as long as his lungs could support him. I was worried about Taehyung's bones when they aggressively hugged each other. The red headed guy further moved in to pet my partner and kiss him like a puppy. 

Taehyung reacted by trying to push the playful guy away. "Not in front of my wife!" He pretended to not care about the embarrassment his friend's public display of affection brought but his ears turned a pretty shade of red.

"Ouh ouh, Minhee the wifey, huh?" He wriggled his eyebrows playfully and walked in my direction to shower some of his love on me too. Thankfully, Taehyung got in the way before he could pull me in. "Oh, yea, you two are married now, I cannot love you the same way. Don't be too possessive." His frown made me wanna kick Taehyung away and let Hoseok spread his positivity through hugs. "Anyways, I've a surprise planned for you!"

I was already voting him as the most affectionate person of the upcoming centuries.

"There it is." He pointed behind us and we turned around simultaneously glaring at the two males entering through the second door. The shorter one mirroring my expressions as we didn't expect to meet like this.

I could recognize him.

He was Jimin.
