"Y-Y-Yes F-Father?" You stuttered as you spoke. On hearing you utter the word 'father', Seokjin guessed who the caller might be. But the hesitation in your voice didn't get unnoticed by him.
"100 MILLION WON!!!" You exclaimed as you suddenly rose from your seat making the other two flinch. You could feel the two pairs of eyes gazing at you in puzzlement so you sat again.
"F-From where am I supposed to bring 100 million won?" You asked as a tear escaped your eye. Seokjin wanted to hug you and comfort you but awkwardness and hesitation got the best of him.
"No... No... Please..." You begged to the other side of the line as you teared up. Seokjin's heart clenched seeing you this way.
"F-Fathe-" Before you could speak further the other line hung up the call. You grabbed your hair in frustration and let out a loud growl.
Seokjin was about to hug you, but before he could, Yoongi did and you hugged him back.
"Does he still do it?" Yoongi asked you which confused Seokjin to which you just nodded in response.
'What are they even talking about?' Seokjin thought to himself.
"It's fine..." You said as you broke the hug and pushed Yoongi away.
Yoongi glanced at his watch and said, "Well, I gotta go. And you two..." He said pointing towards you and Seokjin. "You two, talk to each other and get to know each other..."
You rose from your seat in disbelief.
"First, you don't contact me for years and then you set me up with this... uhh..." You paused as you were hesitant to continue but you did anyway.
"Uhh... With this 'creep'..." You said pointing towards Seokjin.
He was now tired of listening to the word 'creep'. He's heard enough of the thing that he's not.
Yoongi got extremely furious and got out of control.
"First of all, I didn't lose contact with you on purpose. Second of all, Seokjin isn't a 'creep'. Third of all, I'm not trying to set you up with him." His words made Seokjin happy but guilty at the same time. Happy that he at least had one true friend. And guilty because he thought that he was coming between you and Yoongi.
"And what's wrong with you Y/N? Remember when everyone in high school used to bully me and because of that, none of them wanted to be friends with me, but you did. You took a step forward to be friends with me and what happened to you now? Why aren't you the old Y/N anymore?" His words made you realise how wrong you've been acting. You were too busy with your problems to care about others.
"It's okay Yoongi, you can't force someone... Besides, you two met after a long time, I think you should talk for a while." Seokjin said as he got up and prepared to walk away.
But he stopped when he heard you calling his name.
"Seokjin, Yoongi is right..." You paused before you continue. "I shouldn't have behaved that way... I'm sorry..." You said while giving a 90-degree bow in the last part.
You walked towards him and grabbed his wrist. "And, any friend of Yoongi is a friend of mine too..." You said while wearing a smile on your face. Seokjin was shocked at your mood switch. A moment before, you were screaming and then hung your head low, apologising and now you were cheerful. This fact scared Seokjin a little.

"Listen, if we're sitting here because of what Yoongi said... You may leave. I'll take care of the rest." Seokjin said, avoiding eye contact.
The two of you were sitting on the bench of the same garden. You decided to obey Yoongi and talk to him. It was not because of Yoongi but you found the man interesting too and wanted to get to know him more. Seokjin insisted Yoongi to stay because he was too nervous to be alone with a woman. He was afraid if he'll mess it up because he never talked to any woman other than his mother. Yoongi didn't sit close to you two, but he sat on another bench of the same garden but farther. He did that as he didn't want to invade your privacy.
"No, it's nothing like that. The way I behaved with you was wrong. It's just that I wasn't in the right state of mind." You said as you looked at your feet.
You moved your head towards Seokjin to make eye contact with him. "And also you seem like an interesting guy, so why not get to know you more?" You gave a bright smile. Seokjin wanted to see that smile on your face every day.
"What was all that fuss about earlier? Why were you hiding your face from Yoongi?" You asked as you were devoured by curiosity.
"Well, that's my secret..." He continued and narrated to you the whole story.
"What the hell?" You said moving away from Seokjin. Seokjin didn't make any attempts to bring you close to him as he knew this would happen.
"Are you crazy? Curse?" You exlaimed furrowed your eyebrows.
"Exactly, I couldn't believe it too, but when I did saw some evidence, I had to"
"Show me proof... How am I supposed to believe you?" You inquired being dumb.
"To show you proof, I need to take someone else's life... And I'm not going to do that..."
Before he could continue, an unexpected guest arrived.
"What are you doing here?" Seokjin inquired, looking at the person standing in front of him.
"I heard Angels' whispers that you found the girl."
