Juli reached the office and got out of the car. Jimin was waiting for her. And when he saw her coming, he was like...


*Jimin's POV:

From afar, I saw a beautiful lady got out of a black car. She was looking so  gorgeous.

   -Who is she? A new employee, perhaps??

I was thinking in my mind.

    -Wow!!! She's damn gorgeous.

I nodded my head in No.

    -Oh no... what the hell I'm thinking?! No no no... never....

And thinking all these, when I looked at the lady again, all my thoughts faded. It's none other than my one and only best friend, my colleague, Juli. Juli?! How can she be like that?! She was looking damn gorgeous.
I rubbed my eyes and pinched my own cheek, and it hurt. That means, it's really her.
I looked at her again. Yes, it was her.

   -Oh my God, I was dreaming about her!!!

It's true , I felt love towards her but couldn't express my feelings to her  as she was already married. Even after Jin's death, I didn't tell her how I felt or still feel for her. I knew, it would be a bad idea. So I restrained myself but I couldn't leave her alone that time. How could I?
She needed someone. Her kids needed a fatherly figure and a friend too. How could I leave them like that?
I even left everything that was valuable to me that time, just for her and her kids. I know, never will I get anything in return. But this is what I chose to do, and this is what I must do.

Still, my heart aches when I feel like I've to lose her again. She'll never marry someone like me. She just thinks me as her friend. But whatever will happen, I'll always be with her.
I'll always love her.

I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realize when Juli came just in front of me.

    -Jimin-ah? What are you thinking?

I got out of my thoughts hearing her voice.

End of POV

   

      -Jimin-ah?

Jimin hummed in response. Juli smiled.

   -Are you alright?

Jimin nodded his head with a smile. But inside, he was sad.

  -How I wish I could express my feelings to her!!

He sighed deeply. He knows he can't do that because she will never accept his proposal and he is sure of it. He looked at Juli again and smiled softly. Juli raised one of her eyebrows.

   -What's with that look?

   -Huh? Nothing.

Juli placed her hand on his shoulder.

   -Jimin-ah, is everything okay?

Jimin smiled a little.

    -Yeah... I'm alright.

Juli was staring at him and she noticed he was being nervous around her for some reason. But why? It's true he is shy but he's acting weird today. But since he doesn't want to say anything, she will not force him either.

   -Okay. Now show me what's the problem?

Jimin furrowed his eyebrows, confused.

   -Problem?

    -Yep. You called me 15 minutes ago. Forgot it?

    -Ohh no no not at all. Come with me.

Jimin brought her in front of his computer and then he opened a folder named 'Files' and showed her something which she wasn't ready to see. There wasn't any documents saved in there. All of them were removed. But how?

She looked at Jimin shockingly.

   -How did this happen, Jimin-ah?

    -Don't know.

    -Oh my God...

Juli covered her mouth with her hands in shock.

   -But we've a meeting today. If we can't fix it now, then it'll be a great problem, Juli.

Yes, Jimin calls her by her name when nobody is around.

  -How much time we have?

Juli glanced at Jimin, waiting for him to respond.

   -Just an hour.

Juli placed her hand on her forehead and started massaging in frustration. She was thinking hard how to fix the problem in that short amount of time. She and Jimin can do that but they need someone else to help them too. But every employee was busy doing their own works. So, they can't help them. Then?

She was thinking hard in her mind of what to do and suddenly an idea popped up in her mind. She excused herself for a minute and went towards the main door of the office. She grabbed her cell phone and started scrolling through it. She tapped the icon contacts and started scrolling until she found the caller id she was looking for.

She took a deep breath and then released it before she dialed the caller id. She brought the cell phone to her ears. It was dialing. And then someone answered the call from the other side and a deep husky voice said,

   -Hello, who is speaking?

It was none other than Taehyung. Tae is a genius in software related things and if anyone from outside this office can help them, it's only him.
Juli's heart was beating unevenly. But why does it happen? She never felt like that while talking to Jungkook's other friends. Then, why does she feel like that while talking to Tae? Is it because he flirts with her?

   -Hello?

Juli got out of her thoughts and then clearing her throat, she said,

   -Taehyung, is that you?

A moment of silence from the other side and then he chuckled softly.

   -Yes, my love. It's your Taehyung. But why calling me at this hour? I'm still sleeping.

Juli closed her eyes.

   -Listen, Taehyung. I need your help, immediately. Can you come to my office?

Taehyung was silent for a seconds and then he hummed in response.

  -On one condition.

Juli furrowed her eyebrows.

   -What condition now?

Taehyung was laughing.

    -If you can give one whole day to me.

    -What?!

    -Yep. You heard me. Otherwise, no helping. Bye bye.

He was about to hang up the call but he stopped hearing Juli saying, 'Okay'.
Taehyung was shocked.

   -Sure?

He tried to ask her as if he wasn't shocked at all.

    -Yes, but please, just come here as soon as possible.

   -Okay, my love. Just give me 10 minutes and I'll be there.

Juli cut the call and turning around she found Jimin standing there, staring at her confusingly, waiting for her to say what happened.

  -Jimin-ah, will you give me some water, please?

Jimin quickly headed towards the canteen and in a minute he brought her a glass of water. And then he handed her the glass of water. Juli was drinking the water when Jimin asked her what happened and after Juli told him that it was Taehyung she was talking to, he became mad.

    -You did what?!

    -No arguments now. I just want the problem to be solved.

Jimin couldn't say anything else but Juli was sure of it that Jimin was mad at her for calling Taehyung and that's why she couldn't tell him about her deal with Tae. If she tells Jimin, then he'll definitely kill Tae.

After some time.

They were waiting for Tae and exactly 10 minutes later, Tae arrived at their office. Jimin's jaw cleched, Juli noticed it. One thing that Jimin can't bear at all and that is this kid, Tae. And Juli knew they'll fight with each other if they get some time. So, she hurriedly grabbed Taehyung's right hand and
She took him to Jimin's desk and showed him the problem. Jimin followed them. He's actually jealous inside but trying to act normal. On the other hand, Taehyung was blushing because first time Juli grabbed his hand. Tae sat on the chair and started working also at the same time, giving instructions to Juli and Jimin. They were doing as he told them to do. All three of them were working together and after some time, their work was done.

Taehyung stretched his arms.

   -Hu... done. Here you go, my love. Your work is done.

Jimin's jaw cleched hearing him calling Juli as 'My Love'.

  -Mind your tongue, Taehyung. She's the mother of your friend. Give her some respect.

Although, Jimin said it out normally, but mentioning Juli as mother of Jungkook somehow struck in her heart. She felt tears were forming in her eyes. So, she looked at somewhere outside the window. She can't forget what Jungkook and Lisa did with her. Tae glanced at Jimin.

   -I didn't know it's a way to say thank you.

Jimin and Tae both gave each other death glares and Juli knew this will lead to a serious quarrel or fight so she made Jimin sit down on his chair and asked Taehyung to return to his home. At that time, Tae glanced at Juli and for some reason, he was staring straight into her eyes and then he looked at her face. But he didn't say anything. Juli noticed it. But she didn't care why he was staring at her like that and she told him that she will call him and meet him later once her office hour is over. He kept on staring at her and then he glanced at Jimin again. Then, he said,

   -Will meet later. Take care.

Juli quickly nodded her head in approval. And then, Tae left her office. Juli sighed in relief and then she glanced at Jimin who was staring at her raising one of his eyebrows. Juli smiled a little.

  -Jimin-ah, now don't be mad, please.

Jimin just ignored her words and for that Juli became upset. Jimin never been like that before. Why is he doing like that? Why is he behaving that way??
She did not say anything to him and started working on her computer. She had a lot of responsibility on her shoulder today. And she needed to fulfill it. After the meeting, she can talk to Jimin and hopefully, she can solve the problem that's  bothering him. She sighed deeply and started working again.
