"This mouth. This damn mouth of mine!", I slapped my own lips, cursing myself.

How could I admit I like Taehyung right in front of that jerk?

Now he's going to try his every way to persuade Taehyung not to like me back. I said all that to Woo Bin but the truth is I really have no idea how to win over Taehyung.

Yes, it was all bluff.

I sighed, shaking my head.

I sat down on my bed, not knowing what to do. It's a shame that I only realized my feelings for Taehyung only after I met Woo Bin again. If I knew earlier, would things have been different?

Totally! Taehyung was totally flirting with me... Right?

I'm just a stranger he met on the plane. And things turned a whole different direction when I was announced as a sasaeng. The news cleared up a long time ago already. There is no reason for him to text me, choosing me as a model when everyone would do it for him for free or inviting me to his exhibition and set a secret room filled with my pictures to surprise me.

He was definitely hitting on me!!! God.

I knew I was being dumb but I just did not want my hopes high. I mean he's my bias! It's so unreal for me to experience all this.

I checked my phone and there was no notification from him. Maybe he gave up his feelings for me already now that he knows his cousin likes me.

Why does he have to be so sweet and kind?

I really want him to put himself first.

My phone ringtone startled me and the name I saw on the screen even shocked me more.

INCOMING CALL FROM TAEHYUNG >>>

I smiled and squealed so loud, the adrenaline rushing in my veins and I could hear my heartbeat vividly.

God, I have never felt this kind of intense feelings before. It's like as if I'm a teenager all excited over a crush except the part that I didn't experience it when I was a teenager.

I mean yes. I was excited over Woo Bin when I was young too but things between me and him started off with the wrong foot. It's like I was in pain and heartbroken all the time and there were only little moments I was happy.

With Taehyung, it's different...

I could only recall myself being happy whenever I think about him. Even when we were being chased by an ostrich, it was exciting and fun.

I'm so in love...

I sucked in a deep breath before answering the call.

"Hello?", I squeaked, clenching my fist on my thigh.

"Hello? Minhee, did you safely get home?", he asked. I couldn't help but smile foolishly.

"Yes, I did. You?", I asked.

"I did! No need to worry about me.", he chuckled.

Silence~

"Um, so... How did things go with Woo Bin?", he asked.

"Nothing? We just talked.", I answered.

"Oh. Oh... uh, so um. You were saying something in the parking lot before Woo Bin arrive... About the reason you were crying...", he trailed off. My eyes widened.

"Ah. About that..."

.How could I possibly tell you that I cried because you aren't gonna take any steps further with me because you found out your cousin likes me?!

"Nothing really. Just being dramatic I guess.", I chuckled.

"Oh. Time of the month?", he laughed and I frowned.

I swear to god. This dude.

"May...be? Aside from that, I heard from Woo Bin that you texted him to come to the restaurant. Why did you that?", I changed the subject.

"Well, I thought both of you... might wanna meet? Am I wrong?", he asked.

I DON'T!!!!!!!

"No, you're not. I was just... startled.", I lied.

"Oh. Well, sorry about that I guess.", he said with a chuckle.

"Why did you call me by the way? Just to ask me if I safely arrive back home?", I asked, my cheeks turning pink.

"Yes.", he answered immediately.

God, what was I expecting?

"Oh. Okay.", I said, a little disappointed.

Usually, he would come up with a reason for us to meet or talk about stupid stuffs. I didn't want to hang up.

There was a long silence between us.

"I'm hanging up now.", he quickly said and I frowned.

"Yeah. yeah, okay.", I said and the call ended.

I clenched my fists, feeling that awfulness inside my chest.

All my life, I cared about what the society thinks, trying to fit into people's preferences. But BTS changed me. They gave me a push to chase my dreams, do what I want, not to care about what others say and lastly... made me love myself. They were the energy that pushed me to chase things I'm passionate about.

Am I passionate about Taehyung? Hell, yeah!

Without thinking twice, I dialed a certain contact, feeling that powerfulness in me.

"Hel-"

"Kim Taehyung, lets go watch a movie."
