"Yes, I am involved in the bet.", he replied. My eyes widened.
"Why?", I asked. "I'm not angry I'm.. I'm— disappointed.", my eyes softened.
"I need extra money..", he sighed. "Jung Kook.. do you really think joining the bet over me is something smart?", I questioned him as tears started to build.
"But you got to believe me, I joined the bet after we became friends.", he looked at me, I twitched.
"I don't know what to believe. And, are we really friends?", I pushed his chest, he walked back due to the push.
"But, please, I need the money, Seo Yun.", he begged.
"I'm not helping you win, I'm not helping anyone win.", I cried and I stared hiccuping.
"If you really need the money.. wait.. JUNG KOOK YOU ARE AN IDOL, YOU ARE RICH!", I shouted.
"I know but.. all the money I get from it goes to my parents.", he replied. "Please, help me.", he begged again.
"Get a job, sell your motorcycle, sell your car, sell your rolex, even selling your virginity would work too.", I cried harder. "Don't expect me to help you.", I took a deep breath. "And don't expect us to be okay after this.", I wiped my tears away.
"But— Seo Yun..", he held my shoulders. I pushed him off and I cried harder again.
"GET OUT!", I pointed at the door. He walked towards the door but stopped as he held the handle.
"You heard me, get out.", I hiccuped. He looked at me with an expression and left.
I rested my back on the wall and slid down. I hugged my knees and let myself cry.
I thought I was strong, I wasn't the kind of person who would cry over anything.
But, I don't know. Jung Kook triggered my tears.
"Why? Why me?", I asked myself. I walked out to the nearby park and sat on the swing again. I was about to go to the place Jung Kook showed me but I knew he would be there.
On the swing, I looked down to my toes as I let all my tears out. It hurt me so much, it was already hard to believe Jung Kook would talk to me and asked me to his best friend.
"Why am I crying so much? Does he mean that much to me?", I mumbled to myself.
Then I heard footsteps and the person sat on the swing next to me.
"Seo Yun.", it was Sung Min. I quickly wiped my tears and looked at him. "Yeah?", I asked.
"Are you okay?", he asked. I nodded, it was painful to lie. "Hey, talk to me.", he smiled.
"I'm okay.", I faked my smile. "No you're not. If I were in your position right now I would be sobbing like a baby.", he chucked.
"You're right, I'm not okay.", I laughed. "What happened? I mean— if you're willing to tell me..", he asked.
I did have major trust issues but I couldn't bottle my feelings forever.
"Jung Kook told me he's involved in the bet, and.. it broke me.. I trusted him, he was my bestfriend.", I sighed and tears rolled down again.
"Let me take you somewhere.", he stood up in front of me, I looked up at him. "You need cheering up.", he pointed at me.
"I don't feel like going anywhere, sorry..", I sighed. "Oh come on, let's have fun.", he chuckled.
"No.. I don't think I can.", I shook a no. He pulled me by the hips and lifted me up on his shoulder. My eyes widened and I gasped in shock.
"Put me down!", I punched his back, he didn't answer. I tried wiggling out of his arms but he was really fit.
He then stopped and put me down. "Why didn't you listen to me? I don't want to be around people right now.", I said to him, I had to look up high because he was a lot taller than me.
"Because, I don't listen to people. But, I am an ear if anyone needs.", he replied.
"Can you just— take me home?", I asked. He smiled without looking at me, inserted his hands in his pockets and shook a no.
He looked cute, I admit it.
"Sung Min.. I feel overwhelmed..", I looked down to my skirt and gripped it. I felt uneasy with people around me at that moment.
I saw that his hands was about to pull into a hug but he stopped himself, knowing that I didn't want to be touched randomly. What a gentleman he was.
"Every time I'm troubled, you always just come out of the blue like that.", I mentioned, still looking down.
"You're wrong.", he stated. I looked up to him, "Huh?", I asked.
"I didn't come out of the blue, I saw you, then walked away because I was being a shrimp. I started walking home but gave myself some beating, I started to walk back and stopped. I thought to myself, what if she.. what happens if I.. I told myself to man up many times when I have the chance to talk to you, to get to know you. Then I made my mind, I wanted to know you better so I've decided to be brave.", he explained. My cheeks started to burn up.
"Oh.. I want to know you better too..", I replied. He seemed to be shocked and looked down to me with big eyes, I chuckled.
"What? Is it such a surprise?", I commented. His cheeks went pink and he pursued his lips. "N-No.. not at all!", his voice cracked. I pulled a tiny smile.
"Do you want chocolate milk?", he asked. I nodded.

[JJK'S POV]
"I took her virginity.", I stated to Ye Jun. "I think he did, he's really close to her.", a guy mentioned. Ye Jun nodded and everyone gave me their money.
I went to the hospital and went in the room where that girl stayed in.
"Hey..", the door croaked open as I walked in. "Oh Jung Kook, what are you doing..", she asked me.
"I got the money..", I showed her. She smiled and nodded, she took the money. "Jung Kook.. isn't this one sided love is going to far? I've rejected you many times.. can't you get over me?", she stated. I looked down.
I really wish I can.
There's another girl I better spend my time with, but because of your manipulative self and how much of a dick I am..
I can't hold her down to myself.
"I really appreciate if you could leave me alone.", she commented. My eyes became itchy.
"I gave you the money, it was a big risk. I lost my best friend because of you.", I stated.
"It's not my fault I'm sick.", she shrugged her shoulders. "You're not even that sick, you only have a cold, you just over exaggerated over it.", I pointed at her.
"You said if I could get you enough money, you will consider giving me a chance.", I reminded her.
"A chance for you to leave.", she smiled. "No, a chance to analyse the real me under the skin. My personality, my heart, my mind.", tears build in my eyes but I held them.
"Why do you always stick around me?", she questioned.
"Because I love you! You're so fucking dumb.", I shouted. Her eyes widened.
"Love is too far right?", she asked. "No it's not, it's too far to make other have high hopes when it's not going to happen.", I crossed my arms.
"Oh, grow up.", she rolled her eyes. "How about you? You messed with my hyungs by loving them then trashing them like they mean nothing.", I accused her.
"I bet you're going to do that to Tae Hyung too.", I added.
"Why do you love me?! You sound like you hate—", she was about to finish her sentence but I stopped her.
"I LOVE YOU BECAUSE I AM TRYING TO PROTECT MY HYUNGS FROM YOU! ALL YOU DO IS HURT THEM LIKE THEY WERE SOME KIND OF TOYS!", I yelled, my words were filled with anger and frustration.
"So please, have me instead. I know I'm not enough but, I just want to protect my hyungs.", my voice softened.
"No, I know what I want and I get everything that I want.", she scoffed.
"I don't want you. I want Tae Hyung, accept that. And when you're in love, you will get hurt at some point.", she added.
"I know, and I'm hurting now. Badly", I said.
Most of the feeling is by the girl I treasure the most. Which is not you.
"Don't make me look like the bad one here—", she chuckled.
"In my eyes, you are nothing than a manipulative, greedy person.", I added. "But yes, I am in love with you in order to protect the people I love the most.", I added again.
"Stop it. I like Tae Hyung and I want him, all for myself. Because I deserve him.", she giggled.
You disgust me.
