I meet the real you,

whom I had hidden inside the hurricane)

After spending time comforting and promising her that she would never lose him, Seokjin left his love. If his unyielding father doesn't achieve his goal, he realizes it is wishful thinking.

What the heck?

He is hoping that Noodle may be able to help him, but it appears that she is interested in getting married. The moment he realized that he would be a lousy spouse who might never love her. He likes her, but not in the sense of a committed relationship. Seokjin sighed, his eyes beginning to moisten. He knows that his lovely soulmate is out there yearning for him and suffering every day from the agony of losing her. How can he survive? To her, he just cannot do it.

Their hyungs' underlying feelings were something the Bangtan brothers were aware of. He was so awkward as he stood at the coffee maker, absentminded. Namjoon, seated at the counter, seemed concerned as he stared at his hyung.

"Seokjin huyng? Is everything okay?" He broke the awkward pause, shocked by the sadness in their hyungs 'faces, saying, "Your cup is overflowing; I don't think you have more cups left for the coffee." He appeared to drift off.

Seokjin heaved a sigh as he gasped at the sight of his cup underneath the coffee maker. He swiftly cleaned the area around the coffee maker on the counter.

"You've been acting so disoriented lately, Hyung and our dancing rehearsals haven't even begun yet. Please talk to me. While you had the chance, you were supposed to take it easy.  What had you feeling like that?" Namjoon enquired while displaying obvious worry on his face. Their hyung is bothered by something. He appeared ecstatically joyful and enthusiastic a few days before, but now that he had returned from his weekend getaway, he appeared apprehensive.

Yoongi advised them to relax, but Jungkook and Taehyung assumed it was because they had consumed all the treats during their gaming night while he was away. Their brother is dealing with more significant problems.

"You are aware of my struggle with the soulmate system," Seokjin replied, gazing into his brother's soulful eyes," My Appa,' intended to rig the system by getting me married to my 'girlfriend, 'Noodle. Oh my gosh Joon, I'm not ready. I want to find my true mate and enjoy being in a relationship with her," he says in a tone tinged with frustration.

"Jin-hyung, you are still bound to the dating ban until you are 24 or 25 or until you meet your soulmate," Namjoon stated, raising his eyebrows.,"Why marry at such a young age? Why the hurry?" Namjoon gasped in confusion.

"Exactly what I meant. My Appa though, is a diehard conservative. He couldn't envision me with any girl other than a Korean native, I believe. Chinese, Japanese, or any other Asian race-perhaps an Indian girl-will not even be on his list of possibilities," Namjoon saw that Seokjin's eyes appeared teary as he rubbed the bridge of his nose.

Namjoon gave his hyung a tight brotherly embrace as he slowly rose to his feet and moved to stand next to him. He could feel Seokjin taking long breaths.

"Remain strong. I hope you soon find your heart's desire. Your soulmark is acting up since the cold plasters are covering your fingers. "Perhaps she'll show up before you have embraced the absurd legacy club rules. "He tried to comfort Seokjin.

Seokjin only shrugged. He also felt horrible for keeping his brothers in the dark about his soulmate bond. How could he if his parents wouldn't even let him make the rightful decision?

"I have to go,' Seokjin murmured." Before we begin our tour schedule, I need to turn in my last assignments. Don't stress about the meal. Inform the boys that I'll bring plenty of takeout to make up for not cooking for them. Would you kindly ask Hanbin, the new manager, to drive Kookie from school again? I believe one of the managers will need a permanent position starting the following year to drive Kookie to school."

"Ok, I'm going to be with Yoongi at the agency," Namjoon stated with a nod,". Pdogg asks us to have a look at some of the lyrics for our next album. Enjoy your day at the university. "He smiled with dimples.

Namjoon got a shoulder pat as Seokjin grinned a little," I'll bring the food if you just text me when you get back, or if you and Yoongs are running late, I'll just let the Maknaes use our credit card for household expenses. Today Jimin has to do the dishes. Check that he is okay. These days, I believe he skipped a few too many breakfasts, which is unhealthy."

"Yeah, I'll talk to him, but you know our eldest maknae has been a born perfectionist since before debut," said Namjoon, furrowing his brows," On stage, he wants to come off flawless. He is loved by the Army for who he is."

Seokjin nodded in agreement and slung his black Puma backpack over his pink hoodie.

"Namjoon. I'll leave you now. Be cautious. I have to talk to my Korean language professor about my extra credits", he mumbles as he takes his phone from the table.

"Did you find your phone where you left it? "Namjoon asked with a sly grin. He appeared a little smug as he stood with his arms crossed. Seokjin had been using his phone the entire time, based on what Hobi had told him the previous evening.

Seokjin became rather uncomfortable, "When I arrived at the university, I, uh, found it in my pocket." He laughed uneasily, "I traveled all this way for nothing." Fortunately, Namjoon accepted the explanation for it.

Jin endured a great deal of mental stress, according to Namjoon, who assumed that this is why he sometimes gets sidetracked or experiences slight memory loss. Namjoon just shook his head.

Hobi had just entered the kitchen and was hurling the car keys at Seokjin when he exhaled in relief.

Hobi chuckled. "You considered calling Hobeam to come fetch you today, hmm? You're in luck because the traffic wasn't too bad this morning. Why are you reluctant to go anywhere with the management today? What if you get mobbed without the bodyguard?"

"I'm coming home early," Seokjin grinned," I want to head elsewhere today." With a grin, he waves to his brothers.

Hobi laughed. "He looks to be human today. He was acting like a malfunctioning robot yesterday."

As they watch Seokjin close the front door behind him, Namjoon can only laugh. They wanted whatever was bothering him to be fixed as soon as possible.

.......

Seokjin took care to blend in when he arrived on the Konkuk campus. He donned a mask, his Harry Potter reading glasses, and his adorable checkered bucket hat to conceal his hair. Today's air quality is a tad congested, so maybe no one will notice the famous person among them. After submitting his assignments today, he will then unwind in his library office. Perhaps he might convince his soulmate to spend some quality time with him. He needs her presence right now.

As his thoughts turned to his stunning, curly-headed soul mate, his heart began to painfully constrict. He yearns for her because of his overwhelming, unwavering love for her, the continual holding, kissing, and enjoyment of being close to her. How could his parents possibly be that cruel? Forcing him to be married so soon when Mia already has his heart.

He decided to call her while on the way to the university. Hearing her stuffy, blocked nose startled Seokjin. Because of all the sobbing from the previous day, her throat seemed hoarse.

He had to tend to her needs last night. He was aware that she needed him both physically and emotionally since she was distraught. Her needs come first, and he could be confident that after some tender loving, her emotions were at peace.

Seokjin with a little concern in his voice, "Good morning, baby. Are you okay?"

Sami chuckled, " Good morning, sweetheart, er...no I'm too exhausted this morning. I've decided to rest today at home. I woke up with a bad migraine and took some throat medicine." She had a hoarse voice.

Seokjin breathes out: "Oh, sweetheart. Okay, I'll get some delicious food for you as well as something sweet to cheer you up. Samiya Dholakia, I love you."

"I love you more, Kim Seokjin, my incredibly attractive boyfriend", Sami giggled softly.,"I appreciate you getting meals for me and taking care of my physical needs last night.

"Just a shame I can't be with you today at Uni," Seokjin chuckled," I'll be here until noon. I need to spend a lot of time studying because my examinations start in two days. Sami, I shall need your energizing presence now more than ever"

Sami smiled, adding, "And I'll gladly comply. The A+ student cannot be allowed to slack off. Baby, have fun today and relax OK? Try not to worry too much. Aliah is currently heading home."

Jin's mood increased after they chatted for a short while, making him even happier. When he was done parking the car, he caught sight of a figure close by.

Noodle was standing there waiting for him. She looked stunning in a black and white maxi and white sandals. Her gold jewelry features celestial designs. She always appeared elegantly attired. Mostly so that she might appear to be a good fit for the idol. Though they are only now regarded as best friends, the whole student body is aware that she and BTS Seokjin were once romantically involved.

It was still extremely early, and there weren't many faculty members or students around. He lets out a heavy sigh while also feeling regret at hurting Noodle with his attitude.

After locking his car, he took his black backpack and some papers in his backseat and approached her gently. Despite how she was feeling, her eyes shone as she hurried up to him; she was excited to see him.

Noodle's voice sounds as though it is out of breath," Good morning Jinnie! You're attending college today?" Her warm hand rested tenderly on his arm.

Seokjin lightly scoffed," Morning Noodle, I guess. I need to get my exam schedule and turn in my assignments," he trails off.

Noodle said as she stared with mournful eyes at him." Jinnie did... did you mean to say you wouldn't even think about being married to me? You don't even like me well enough to engage physically with me or have kids with me. I love you, Jinnie. Even though we're both soulmarked, I've always loved you. Please think about it. I just don't think I could ever be with that obese narcissist." She shivered in distaste.

Turning around, Seokjin bit his lip and cast a regretful glance of Noodle's way," I want the same choices as you, as I said. encountering and building a relationship with my soul mate. While completing a connection, my Appa and his true mate made sure to part ways before falling in love. He had a choice, Noodle-Joo. My Eomma is Tarnished. Your parents are red-gold. They had no choice but to stay together or die." He took a deep breath and then said, "I just can't," closing his eyes briefly as he composed himself.

Once more, Seokjin could feel his frustration rising.

Noodle sighed and wrapped her arms around his, her beautiful, expressive eyes appearing worn,". Please don't leave me in the cold, Jinnie. You witnessed my parents. Both of them are like your Appa. Unyielding. Children under this system are required to obey their parents or face fines or, worse yet, a split of their families. I cherish my family, Jinnie. Please cool off and think it through. September is almost here. If my soulmate gets his act together, we still have time. I don't know, but my Appa allegedly threatened him". Her voice expresses her sadness.

They chose a different path to get to the lecturers' offices, and Seokjin just sighed. Noodle was just trailing behind. Seokjin seemed quite distant, and she didn't want to alienate him or enrage him by trying to ask him about the girl he met.

Noodle was terrified, and she knew it. Who is this girl? Did he go on a romantic break with an unknown girl? Is she a foreigner? How did he avoid the Saseangs and paparazzi? Joy, one of her friends, wanted to give her some important news. She must still meet her at the cafeteria.

"I'll see you soon, Noodle," Seokjin added as he turned to face a calm, thoughtful Noodle," I need to meet Ms. Kim. Please excuse me," He bowed and quickly rushed up the stairs to Ms. Kim's office without waiting for a response from Noodle, leaving her on her own, lost in thought.

............

After Seokjin's early call, you climbed deeper under your warm blanket and resumed your nap until you felt a weighty presence on your bed.

When you noticed a laughing Alia, your eyes fluttered open in apparent disbelief. Alia was seated at the foot of your bed. She came in without even being detected.

"Alia, oh my goodness! You're back!" you jumped up and flung yourself in your best friend's arms.

"Oh wow! I love the hug of "welcome back". It seems I must travel more frequently. What's up, my Indian princess? "She laughed as she released you from her grasp. Wow, you missed your friend. after a stressful week.

"Ugh Alia, I hate being by myself in this quiet area. Since yesterday, Sona hasn't come home. She might return today."

You make a sweet pout. Not that it was altogether incorrect. When you were deeply miserable, you genuinely missed your friend's consoling arms.

But when your sweetheart made sure you were relaxed and sleeping warmly you felt at ease. Even the memory of how enamored you were with him the previous evening makes you blush. He left you well after midnight. In a nutshell, you were unable to separate from one another. He would have spent the night if Alia hadn't come home today.

Alia grinned and appeared cheerful," It's great to be back. But I must complete my outstanding assignments. Why are you not prepared for class? "Your hot cheeks and red-rimmed eyes catch her attention, and her eyes widen, "What's wrong, Sami? Have you been crying? Did Miss India truly miss her confidant... Aww? "

You just waved dismissively and shrugged, "Er... I was a little ill yesterday. I won't be attending class because of this. Fortunately, I've completed and turned in all of my assignments".

"Oh my goodness, you're extremely lucky. You must have a seriously committed tutor. So we can now converse in a little Korean," she grinned.

"Well, I remember a bunch of new words. He speaks his native dialect well. Thus, tell me about the trip you took". You changed the topic. As she informed you about her Hawaii photoshoot, a smile appeared on her face. the cast, the models she met.

Then she grimaced and replied, "A Chinese-Korean model/actor we met on the set was the only pain and blot on my fantastic trip. He disliked me right away. Sami, what the hell! He always picked me out, to annoy me and make me look unprofessional, I had to take a couple of photos with him", the dark look on her face that surprised you.

You cast a bewildered glance at her. Prospective admirers have never failed to swoon over Alia. It's the first time a guy hated Alia.

You sigh and exhale, "Oh my." Aliah was on the battlefield. She seems to despise this man ferociously.

You could tell she was genuinely moved by this man when you asked, "Do you know why he resented you so much?"

"Sami I've never even met him. When he first saw me, it was hate at first sight. The models were all crazy over this annoying, disrespectful moron. I'm sure he is aware of his incredible good looks," yet you could hear the crack in her voice. Did she fall for this guy? You sense that your friend is still sensitive about this guy's attitude, so you don't want to pry.

"Don't be concerned about him. You enjoy fame and beauty. Perhaps he has a secret crush on you," you smile, but Alia doesn't find it amusing.

"Well, I don't. He remarked to me that I was looking like a "playgirl" who sleeps with any guy she encounters. Oh my Sami. I slapped him across the face because I had never experienced somebody being so insulting. He was just so flippen smug. He doesn't even know me. The photography assistants had to intervene because I wanted to murder him. Luckily we had the altercation privately. But it transferred on set---" She looked as if she wanted to cry.

You quickly gave her a back hug.

"Let's forget about that fool", she remarked while flashing you an unsteady smile, "I brought you a charming pair of gorgeous swimwear, the same as I modeled in. It's quite modest, so don't worry," She showed a few images of herself at the beach set and at the resort.

"Wow, you seem cool. Wow! Your new agency will quickly cast you in a film or television show." You were in awe of the images on her phone.

Alia beamed," I agree. It's stunning. After he has given each magazine his seal of approval, the photographer will send me a few images."

"Um, so you said the guy is a Chinese-Korean actor or model? Do you have a photo of him?" You quietly enquire.

With an intense scowl on her face, Aliah scoffs: "No, just google this fool!"

She searched his name and handed you the phone without saying anything.

Your eyes widen when you see the hot candy, but you smile as you remember your handsome soulmate, Seokjin. No contest there.

"He's cute," you say, clicking your tongue. You raised your eyes to the darkness that covered their expression.

Alia just scrunched her brow and muttered," Yeah, but Zang is a loser in my eyes. Worse than Ranveer," she murmured, seizing the phone and exiting the app abruptly.

"So his name is Vin Zang or something," you chuckled.

"Yes," Aliah sighs, "Sami. Let me quickly take a shower; my class begins at 10 a.m.I'll be meeting with my tutor in the library for two hours. "I'm hoping my partner completed the majority of the worksheets because I'm not in the mood for lengthy lectures." She ran out of your room, leaving the two gift bags on the bed.

You merely smirked as you decided to go back and rest. You choose to spend the entire day in bed. Your body was exhausted, especially after your "physical "workout with your other half.

You were reaching for your phone to contact Priya and Mukhi just to see how they are.

Alia dashed into your room to greet you. She looked stunning with denim blue shorts that accentuated her physique perfectly, and a black midriff hoodie with a BTS ARMY logo in silver-purple on the front. Almost identical to the pink one you were wearing yesterday.

She put on her white and black Converse, grabbed her Chanel totebag, and wished you a stress-free day.

Alia arrived just as they were about to take their first tea break. The squad was disappointed that you couldn't make it, but they had a good time with Alia.

Alia was also notified of Shruti's soulmate status, and she was eager to meet the alluring lecturer who was destined for their buddy.

Shruti was a little nervous because she had an unexpected encounter with her soulmate while some of the girls were at their tutoring appointment in the library.

Alia was still packing her notes inside her totebag after everyone had said their goodbyes. She eagerly anticipates returning to their apartment and spending the remainder of the day with Samiya. She was curious if her best friend had eaten anything for lunch.

Just as she was about to leave, two girls approached her with solemn expressions. Alia puzzledly raised her brows. What do these two young ladies want?

They're stunning, but also a little terrifying. Alia was aware that she had no connection with any of the guys at university who could have been their boyfriends. She hasn't been on a date in weeks. Her decision to turn over a fresh leaf is paying dividends.

"Oh, hello, girls," Alia murmured suspiciously in English. Why are these two girls gazing at her in such a weird way?

One girl with a nice ponytail hairstyle stared at her, her gaze darting from her crown to her feet. "Hi there, we were just wondering why you were in BTS Seokjin's car yesterday. What is your relation to the 'idol'?" Their eyes were narrowed in on her.

Alia stood there with her mouth gaping. Excuse me! What did they mean? She hasn't had the privilege to meet her idol in person. What is she going to do in his car? Are these girls intoxicated or what?

"Me and Seokjin... Seokjin from BTS," Alia snorted loudly.,"Are you insane? Why would I be in the car of an idol? You mean the real BTS Seokjin's car?"

"We merely wanted to know the truth. You look like the girl Seokjin spent some time with. You were wearing a pink BTS Army hoodie, identical to the one you got today. And your hair is as yesterday,". The girl becomes irritated because Alia only laughs incredulously.

"Sorry, girls, you've got the wrong chick. I admit that I am an ARMY Fan, but all fans had access to their merchandise. I'm not the only one wearing these outfits, and if you look around, you'll notice there are more than fifty Indian girls on the campus." Alia tries to explain to the two girls that it might be anyone, but they don't believe her.

Alia gasped as she noticed the girl on the right; wasn't she Seokjin's so-called best friend? Oh my goodness! She assumes Alia was involved with the idol. It makes her wish it were real. Did Seokjin talk to an Indian girl who resembled her? Interesting.

The girl in the long black and white dress sharpened her eyes at Alia and whispered, "Don't lie to us. Joy saw you getting into his car yesterday at your white duplex apartment complex. She drove by with the bus and recognized Jins' car. You got in, and he dropped you off at the university bus stop. You even kissed! " She was battling with the thought that Seokjin might have feelings for this lovely Eastern girl.

Alia scoffed loudly, and placed her hands at her side, "Well, Joy needs her eyes to be tested," she looked at Joy with disgust.

When Joy told Noodle the juicy details, Noodle knew this beauty might be the one who spent the weekend alone with Seokjin in his penthouse, and his father's employee confirmed it was an Indian female. It hurt her deeply, and she needed to know the truth.

Alia was shocked. What exactly is going on?

Joy was sure in her accusation: "I found out who you are. You are Alia Bhatt, and you are nearly 24 years old. You are a supermodel based in Mumbai, but you were born and raised in New Delhi. You are well-known in your country, and you were linked to over a dozen mostly celebrity men, including five actors, three models, one singer, two businessmen, and one lecturer. Should I go on? Because of your Tarnished Status, you're a binge dater. You studied Merchandising at Pearl Fashion Academy."She looked smug.

"You followed me around! Who gave you the bloody right to access my college data? This is absurd. I don't have anything going on with Seokjin! You girls are insane. Gosh! " Alia was enraged.

She abruptly grabbed her purse from the library desk and walked past the two girls, giving them her ugliest look, to the exit.

She was fuming inside, and an inferno was burning in her eyes. She was so delighted that no one at this university was aware of her superstar status. But why are they accusing her of having a liaison with Seokjin?

She wishes it was truly her. Seokjin is old enough to date. ARMY knows that the boys had their own lives. They are not ARMY's possessions,

Alia just chuckled incredulously, thinking about the two Korean girls' confrontation.

A/n: Alia is back but a confrontation left her reeling.
