Chapter-11
Jimin, The Gentleman
"In a world of boys, he's a gentleman."
You stare at the history of your contacts, and you were so mesmerized just by the name of Taehyung. You were fighting the urge to not call him. "He must be tired. Let him rest." Yes, it was seriously strange of you to let the childish you slide into you. You couldn't resist yourself. You had saved Taehyung's contact number with the name "Jerk". You were cackling just by the flashback of it when you saved it.
You renamed the number as "Taehyung Kim" with a brown bear on the side. You were conceiving the sudden change in you, just by a small conversation with him. You wondered if you were fine or not. If it's okay for you to act so. But lastly, you shrugged it off with the thought that it is just a mere change and you will definitely not turn into something like that.
You freaked out with the faint knock on the wooden door. It left you in question. You looked at the door to guess who it could be. But of course, if it was a killer or a robber, why would he knock on the door? You slowly jumped off the bed and muttered, "Who is it?!", you shouted. "Can it be a butler late at night?" The sweet voice echoed. You expired out a breathe in allay. Lounging to the door, you swing it open.
Jimin was frowning with his head tensed up. "What happened? What brings you here?", you inquired. "I was going to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water. I saw the lights of your room landing past the door so I just wanted to know if you are struggling to sleep or something.", he had his hands resting in the pockets of his pants. You grinned at him, "I was just going to sleep, Taehyung called me so I just switched them on to look for my phone."
Jimin could have guffawed on your words. Why would you have to switch the lights on to pick the phone up, if it lightens up when it notifies something? He decided to just pass a grin, "He must have just landed. Anyways, I somewhat find your eyes glint up and I cannot see even a single spark of sleep in them." You let out a nervous laughter after listening to him.
"It's not like that. You must be in sleep, that's why you can't see the sleep in my eyes." Jimin continued to smile at you, "Umm...... I was unable to sleep. If you are not sleepy then can we talk?" You realised your answer was pretty dumb because he wasn't asleep anyways. You nodded with a grin to him, facing away with eyes growing wide in awkwardness.
"The weather seems nice. I hope you don't mind talking in an open area.", he cocked his eyebrow up. "Of course.", it was a matter of fact that you couldn't sleep. Jimin proceeded to walk to the gallery, and you followed his steps. He opened the french window, pulling you out in the fresh cold air that blew lightly past you. Your eyes felt fresh and your mind suddenly forgot everything.
"Taehyung must be missing you.", Jimin blurted out. You snapped your gaze at him, "But why would he? We aren't even close.", you blurted along. He exhaled a chuckle, "How will you know when you never tried to know." You furrowed your eyebrows with a questioning gaze. "I hope you don't mind me praising Taehyung. But I cannot help myself from telling you how selfless he is.", he was physically drooling over the ponder of Taehyung.
You somewhat realised the craze of Taehyung over people. "You're lowkey drooling over Taehyung.", you laughed. "It is the Taehyung effect." You cocked your eyebrows, "Taehyung effect?"
"Taehyung has this effect on everyone he meets. Just like a honey trap. He'll make you head over heels for him, but it is almost impossible to do the vice versa. You heard of the sirens in a sea or ocean? He is just like them. Driving others crazy by their ethereal beauty and luring those innocent ones to their trap, but never batting an eye to others. And if you manage to grab his attention, you're going to be in trouble for sure.", Jimin sneered.
He continued, "Taehyung is wilder than you think. He gets what he wants." "Wilder than I think? Someone ambitious?" He bobs his head, "Agree or not, you'll find yourself at the same place. Someday you'll realise Taehyung's mesmerizing beauty, and end up falling for him.", he frisked. "You are playing with me, aren't you?", you smirked. You were mendacious, even after knowing the truth. You're a victim of Taehyung's beauty too.
"You might not believe me, but I am telling you the truth. Taehyung has three sides, and you are only known to one of them." Curiosity arises in you, you faced him. "What are the other two sides?", you lean down. "You'll know one of them soon, and after a period of time, the other one too." "Why tell me when you didn't want to answer me?", you scoffed, looking back at the flawing moon that shines bright.
"I know you're curious. But if I tell it now, I will ruin the fun for Taehyung." You squeezed your eyes narrow, "Are you playing a prank on me?" "No, trust me.", he puffs his chest up. You bobbed your head, "I want answers to many of my questions. Don't give me more." "What are the questions? I would love to answer some of them.", he smiles.
Your high-spirited side took up. You leaned on the banister with a quirky smile. "Why did Taehyung marry me?" Jimin was taken a back by your question. His eyes raised up while his eyes grew wide. His jaw dropping look was hilarious but you decided to be serious for a moment.
"I-I promised Taehyung not to tell you-" "Tell me.", you voiced out with stern. He gulped down the lump forming in his throat, "I believe it won't take you anywhere good. You can't oppose Taehyung for such reasons.", he shrugs. "Is it some documents signed up or something?", you grunted. "No, but it is more than that." You inhaled a sharp breathe, "I want to know it, please tell me! Please!" You join your hands in front of him, stomping your feet like a baby.
"Hey, I cannot tell you. I am afraid Taehyung will be angry on me." Jimin knew he dug the grave for himself. You were too stubborn to agree with him, you continued pleading. "I promise I'll not take a step further after knowing it and I will not talk about it to Taehyung." You rubbed your palms against each other. Helpless of the situation, Jimin exhales and bobs his head unwillingly.
You smiled at him, "Thank you so much, Jimin! I promise I'll return the favour with a greater one." "I am not doing a favour I suppose. But thanks, get me a girl if you can." You nodded anyways, "Now tell me." You stared at him apprehensively. He frisks chuckles at your behaviour, "Taehyung....... It is hard." He searches for words to confess, but only to be struggling harder.
"You see, Taehyung somewhat finds you interesting. I will not be straightforward, but Taehyung had a small crush on you since the beginning, when your dad reached out for him to propose a marriage approval. Taehyung was kinda shook by your stubborn and disobedient behaviour. Taehyung had found a lot of girls in his life but he found you the dominant one. You know, the one we call a woman. Ambitious, rebellious, arrogant and melchanant.
It isn't a big crush you know, it is just that he finds you interesting and worth spending money on. The woman he wants to be dominant for. I don't really know if he has developed a greater crush on you or not but he definitely cares for you. Now it is you who knows it, if you find some affection in his actions or not.
I know I messed it up for Taehyung, but as you have promised to zip your mouth on this matter, I'll trust you-" "C'mon, I trusted you, how can you perceive that I will believe it-", you scoffed. "I told you, you won't believe me for this one.", he grunted in vexation. Jimin was too real for it to be pretending. You were pulled to a contemplation.
"I hope you don't blurt out these things infront of Taehyung. I'll be dead otherwise." He ran his hand through his hair in the same frustration. You stared at Jimin who was blabbering non-sense in strain. "Umm.......... My senses tell me to believe you." What about the words said by Jimin long ago, the wild side, the siren. If he wasn't lying at that time, then it is true that Taehyung never really looks at the girls, they call them. And yes you are that rebellious woman they call you. It somewhat makes sense, but it doesn't mean you will really believe it all. You need tough proofs to believe it.
"No, just forget it. Don't get me a girl either. I was just blabbering and all. You can just sleep. Let's go in there."
"I believe you are a soulmate for Taehyung, but you are a good friend of mine too. I trust you and believe whatever you said. Don't worry about the things you said to me. Your words are in my mind and heart I suppose. They won't sneak out from my big mouth." You open your mouth wide and point your finger at it.
Jimin stares at you in great wonder. You stare back in his eyes with some positivity in your body. Jimin was startled by the sudden change in you and he didn't know what to utter next. He keeps quiet and nods at you.......
