Jimin immediately hung up the phone. He put on his robe and checked himself in the mirror. Feeling satisfied with his look, he left the bathroom.

Y/N was sitting down on the sofa while reading her book. He went over and sat down beside her. She didn't raise her head: "That was fast."

"I hang up." Jimin said while drying his hair with a towel. When it was not so wet anymore, he threw the towel on the other sofa.

"Jimin! Put it back after you use it." Y/N said. Eyes still glued to her book, not looking at him.

"Alright, wifey." Jimin put the towel on the laundry then went back and sat down beside her. He took her left hand and checked her wounds.

Y/N was curious. "What are you doing?" She tried to peek at what he was doing by raising her eyes above her book but quickly look away as soon as her gaze caught his eyes.

This whole scenario made Jimin chuckle. He thought she was cute. "Have you finished your present for me?"

Y/N raised her eyebrows, finally looking at him.

"Do you want to know how I know?" Jimin stroked her hand with his thumb softly and smiled.

"Last night when you were asleep, I checked your pocket but there was nothing there. I searched for it and found it inside the drawer. I thought it was your new hobby but you actually embroidered a handkerchief for me." He pursed his lips, smiling at her. He felt satisfied with his little discovery.

"I bought you a handkerchief. I think it was too plain so I embroidered your name on it." She finally admitted it.

"And, a little red heart beside my name. What should we do with you? You love me so much, aren't you? That's why you injured your hand just to custum-made my gift." He kissed her hand then gently put her hand down.

Her face flushed and turned away to continue reading her book. Too embarrassed to look him in the eyes.

Jimin stroked her hair tenderly. "Are you angry at me?"

"No."

"No?" Jimin clearly didn't believe her. "If you are not, then why are you reading your book upside down?"

Y/N let an intentional cough, too embarrassed to say anything at all. She groaned internally. There was no way she could face him now. How could she do this to herself?

Jealousy really made people do stupid things.

She put her book down: "I am not angry."

Actually she couldn't control what she was feeling. It wasn't rage, she wasn't angry. But there was a pierce feeling inside her heart after Seulgi's call. She was trying to get rid of it but she couldn't.

He knew Y/N didn't want to discuss it any longer so he chose to let it be.

In the past, Jimin wouldn't be so considerate towards other people's feelings. But, now he is trying to change. For her, he was changing bit by bit.

He used to feel unwilling to accept the foreign feeling of how easily he was affected by her. But now after he accepted it, he knew he could do anything for her.

Jimin slipped his hand around her cheek, gently stroking them with his fingers then clutched her delicate chin to face him. "I'll be home early tomorrow."

"Why?"

"I'd like to spend time with you." Jimin said. "Tomorrow is the day to celebrate love. Since you love me so much, how about spending it with me?"

Y/N still couldn't believe how shameless this man really was. She pinched his arm.

"Ouch, what was that for?" Jimin stroked his arm in pain. "Grandma said she will take care of Joonie, so we can go out. I'll pick you up after lunch."

"Where will we go?" Y/N was quite curious. She tried to suppress the butterflies on her stomach, but she failed miserably. She smiled.

He gently kissed her forehead. His slight grin showed his satisfaction with her reaction. "You'll know."

"Go to bed, I will dry my hair first." He let go of her and walked to the bathroom.

On the other side.

Ms Bae looked at Seulgi with full of hope and said: "How is it?"

Seulgi put the phone down and gripped it hard, her face was full of grief. She almost threw her phone. "He hung up on me."

"Is he busy?"

"Yeah, busy doing Y/N." Seulgi finally threw her phone to the bed. "Y/N picked his phone. He doesn't want to talk to me in front of her and make her unhappy." Seulgi didn't know if she was talking to Ms Bae or herself.

It was hard to imagine that Jimin unexpectedly would be considerate to other people's feelings. Seulgi couldn't understand it.

She was with him for many years, but how could she lose to her in just a few short months? But now she must admit that she was lost to Y/N.

After being with Jimin for a long time, she got lost by her own wishful thinking that Jimin was actually in love with her. In reality, Jimin never did. It was just her chasing him around.

"Try again, maybe he's available now." Ms Bae continued.

Seulgi bit her lips and once again dialed Jimin's number. This time it was connected. She was completely nervous. She worried the one who would answer the phone would be Y/N again. She held her breath in anticipation.

But luckily, it turned out to be Jimin's voice.

"What is it?"

She breathed a sigh of relief. "Jimin, I want to ask you, do you have time tomorrow night?"

"No." Jimin said straightforwardly: "I want to spend Valentine's Day with Y/N."

Seulgi went silent, she felt bitter inside. But she controlled her feelings. "It's not your style to celebrate valentine's day. Don't you really hate those type of things?"

"It doesn't matter how I feel, I just want to spend it with Y/N." He sternly said.

She still found it hard to believe that Jimin would actually spend a valentine's day with anyone. Especially not Y/N. How could this happen?

"Jimin..." Seulgi said with a pleading tone. "Can you also spend time with me tomorrow? Just for dinner, I just need a little of your time, I promise it won't take long. Then you can go home to spend the rest of the night with Y/N."

"Tell me your reason."

"This one film reviewer kept on attacking me, it created a controversy. Just one dinner, it'll be only for publicity, Jimin..."

"It will disappear eventually." Jimin cut her off before she finished her plea.

Seulgi couldn't accept it: "But you said if you could, you would help me. You're the only one that can help me. I just want to ease it off. I can't even go out because I'm scared that the reporters will chase me and harass me."

"If you want to deal with it then you should stay away from me. Isn't your scandal about you being the third party in my marriage? If you have dinner with me, it won't benefit either party. You have been in this entertainment industry for a long time, how could you not understand it? I promised to help you by not announcing our separation until you're steady enough, it doesn't mean I would play pretend in front of everyone."

Jimin's tone was uptight and cold. He just said what he said, once he made his mind, nobody could tell otherwise.

"I know, Jimin. I just want to show people in the entertainment circle that you're still with me, so they won't cut my contracts, not the audience."

"Really?" Jimin laughed coldly. "You know exactly what you are thinking. Just do your own thing, people will soon forget about it."

He hung up immediately after he said it.

Seulgi could feel her heart rate and blood pressure go up. She couldn't suppress her anger any longer, she screamed out loud and threw her phone ruthlessly to the ground. Her breath wasn't steady.

Her action shocked Ms Bae, she looked at her scattered phone on the ground: "What happened? What did he say?"

Seulgi went silent for a minute. She sat down on the floor and put her head on the side of her bed: "He said he will spend time with Y/N tomorrow night."

After a while she finally crumbled. She looked down and hugged her knees to cry. "Why is he so cruel to me? He promised to help me, I just want him to help me."

She was getting more and more emotional, Ms Bae quickly came to her side and patted her shoulder. "Calm down, Seulgi. Don't be like this, everyone is waiting for your downfall. You can't let them win, okay?"

Seulgi raised her head: "Right, I can't lose! I won't let anyone laugh at me!"

Ms Bae's words were exactly what she needed to hear. How could she let that happen? She would never let herself be defeated!

Because Seulgi was too emotional right now, Ms Bae felt there was no need to discuss work matters tonight. There was this movie that was directed by a famous director, every actress was competing to get the lead actress role. Fortunately for Seulgi, the position has not been determined.

Park Jimin definitely needs to intervene in this.
