"Don't you want to know about him? How is he doing?" Kim Y/n asked her best friend. Both the ladies were sitting with a cup of hot steaming coffee in their favourite cafe.

"There is nothing to know Y/n. I have already moved on from him." Jenna said.

"I agree you have moved on from him. You even have someone you are seeing now but you and Hoseok were friends. And don't you want to know about your friend?" Y/n said to which Jenna released a deep sigh.

"Then tell me how is he doing?" Jenna finally asked the question that she has been wanting to ask.

"He is still stuck there from where you left him." Y/n said.

"What do you mean?" Jenna asked.

"Hoseok is still unable to move on from you. I know he is trying a lot but he is unable to move on. Even though with the arrival of Jimin's sister he somewhat started to enjoy his life but still he is stuck in the past." Y/n said making Jenna look at her in shock.

"I thought after I leave he must have started a new chapter in his life." Jenna said.

"No atleast not yet." Y/n said releasing a sigh.

"Don't you want to meet him? Y/n asked.

"No Y/n. We can never meet. I won't let it happen. Just like I moved on he also deserves to move on and if I come in front of him then it might be more difficult for him to move on." Jenna said earning a nod from her best friend.

"Tell me Hoseok what's bothering you?" Yeonji asked her brother.

"Noona I wanted to tell you about something." Hoseok said looking at his sister.

"What is it Hoseok?" Yeonji asked.

"There's a girl who loves me a lot. She is a nice woman with kindness. She always thinks about me, about my happiness and she has been very vocal about her love towards me. I also want to give her and her love towards me a chance but I am unable to." Hoseok said genuinely.

"And why are you not able to?" Yeonji asked.

"I am afraid to fall for someone once again. I fear that I will be left alone once again. And I know she loves me a lot but I fear if I will be able to love her that much. What if she tells me that she has fallen out of love and leaves me just like Jenna did." Hoseok said with his eyes tearing up.

"I know she is very different from Jenna but my past is holding me tight that I am unable to let it go. I want to embrace her love but always the fear from the past comes and creates a huge wall in between us." Hoseok said as his older sister hugged him tightly.

"Hoseok you should have shared with me earlier. Look you have been eaten up with so many different thoughts. I get what you are saying. But now answer me honestly okay? Do you still love Jenna?" Yeonji asked.

"No I don't love her anymore. I do cherish all the good memories we had but my heart no longer beats for her." Hoseok said confidently making the older smile fondly.

"Then tell me do you really want to move on from your past?" Yeonji asked.

"Yes I do want. I want to become the Jung Hoseok that I was earlier. Full of life, happiness, surrounded by good energy. I want to move on noona." Hoseok answered.

"Now tell me do you have any feelings for the one who loves you?" The older asked.

"I am not sure about that. I always feel a kind of warmth whenever I am with her. She always makes me happy and makes me want to see life from a different prospective." Hoseok replied honestly.

"Then my brother take some time and reflect on your genuine kind of feelings towards her. If what you feel is platonic or actual love. And yes don't be too late because I heard Taehyung saying that she has said yes to her mother for her arranged marriage." Yeonji said and stood up.

"Wait how did you know that it's Park Y/n who loves me?" Hoseok asked.

"Because everytime I see her eyes I could only see love for you in her eyes." Yeonji said and went away ruffling her brother's hair softly.

"Don't be too late brother! Otherwise you might lose her for forever." Yeonji shouted from outside the room making Hoseok nervous and scared for some reason.

"Come in. Have a seat." Jenna welcomed Y/n as the younger took the seat in one of the couches in the living area.

"What do you want to talk about?" Y/n asked.

"I know that you love Hoseok." Jenna said making Y/n release a sigh.

"I also know that you are Hoseok's ex." Y/n said.

"Y/n all I wanted to say is that-" Before Jenna could say something the latter said in between.

"I think you should talk with Hoseok once. He is still stuck in the past."

"No. This is not possible. I cannot meet him nor he can know that I am in Seoul and that you have met me." Jenna said.

"But why? I understand that you love Inseol but atleast clear things with Hoseok! Do you even have any idea how much he has suffered since the time you left him?" Y/n said getting a little angry.

"Do you want him to be stuck in the past for forever? You left him without a proper explaination. You just said that you don't love him anymore, that you have found someone for yourself but the most important thing you did not do before leaving Hoseok and that is clear things with him and have a proper closure to your relationship!" Y/n said as the older was hearing everything seriously.

"I would still say the same thing Y/n. I cannot meet not atleast this lifetime. I love someone else and I want him to have someone beside him who loves him a lot and that is why I called you here." Jenna said earning a stare from Y/n.

"What are you saying? What do you mean?" Y/n said.

"I know you love him and I know that you can do anything for him. Please bring him out of his past and hold him tight in his present. Me and Hoseok never had and will never have any future and so he should really find someone for himself. You should be by his side." Jenna said and was shocked that Y/n was looking at her and chuckling with pain.

"You are right that I love Hoseok and I can do anything for him but he don't want me Jenna! He only sees me as friend and nothing else! No matter how much I try I will never hold that special place in his heart. You want me to be by his side but do you even know if he wants me by his side? I know Hoseok can never see me in that way and that is okay. Love cannot be forced." Y/n said with tears in her big eyes.

"He asked me to move on from him and that I should get married to someone else. So that's exactly what I am going to do." Y/n said rubbing away her tears.

"But-" Before Jenna could say something Y/n said a bye and left the place.
