Jin x Mina One Shot!

Jin's point of view; same format.

*

To the most beautiful woman I have ever met:

How are you? I'm doing fine.

Do you remember how many times you're asking me the same question every hour of the day? And then it was followed by questions like, "Are you sure?", "Have you eaten yet?", "Did you take a nap?" and "Are you home already?".

There are also times whenever we see each other, you'll welcome me with a hug and a kiss on my cheek. You're even tiptoeing just to reach me because I'm so tall, right?

Can you still remember the moment when we first met? You met me when I was in first grade and I was in third grade by that time. It was very awkward because I'm two years older than you and we were still kids back then.

You're playing with your dolls and I'm playing my gadgets.

And really, that was the last moment I have seen you personally. Not until I came back to Korea to study. I was 17 at that time and you were 15. We were being attacked by puberty. We're young adolescents. And we're arranged by our parents. Arranged into marriage.

But it was still very awkward.

We looked at each other as if we're strangers. As if we don't know each other.

And did you also remember that time when our parents talked about having grandchildren? I almost choked on my food and you stood up, excused yourself and went to the women's loom.

That was very embarrassing.

Our parents made us date each other every weekend. We're always out every Saturday. We're having dates.

And that's the time I started liking you.

But the time came that you have to go to Japan to continue your studies. You never knew my feelings for you, so even though it hurted me so much to see you leave, I still let you. I don't have the rights to stop you.

Who am I anyway? I'm just your fiancé and it all happened because of our parents' agreement.

But even though you moved away, I did each and every kind of communication that is possible. I message you every morning. I call you every evening to check up on you.

Did you know that my heart is always beating fast whenever I see you smile? Even though it's just through video calls.

And then suddenly, I have heard that you're in a relationship with someone named Jimin back in Japan. My heart dropped.

I went to Japan right away and stalked you. Seeing you happy with someone else is hurting me.

There is this one time that Jimin brought you home. I was just hiding behind a wall with my growing feelings for you. I was watching you behind the wall. He smiled at you and kissed you on your cheeks. He waved his hand as good bye and you waved back, too.

My heart fell and so as my tears. I wiped it and breathed deep. I faked a smile when I called you.

"Jin?" I heard the sweetest voice I have heard in my entire life.

"How are you?" I asked you.

"I'm home now. I'll be doing something--"

"Okay." I ended the call and put my phone back in my pocket.

To be honest, Mina, I don't want you to know that I have found out your relationship with Jimin. Yes, I could have been mad at you, but I put my emotions away for a while. I should understand you.

But the fact that you already have a fiancé and still, you're having a relationship with someone without me knowing, hurts. It really hurts.

Can you still remember the moment that you cried when you found out that I knew about your relationship with Jimin?

I could still perfectly remember the exact words:

"I'm sorry, Jin. It's just that... you were not by my side the whole time. I tried to stop temptation, but I just fell deep. I am sorry for being weak."

And I could still remember the words I have said:

"I forgive and understand you, but please do me a favor."

"What is it?"

"Break up with him." I could still reminisce how you looked at me. You gulped and you're still tearing up. I doubted that you'll won't agree with me, but I was quite shocked to hear you agree.

I forced my parents to go to your school and thankfully, they let me go there. You were astonished when you have heard it, but I heard the happiness in your voice. I am glad to hear that I'm the reason why you're happy now.

Funny, right?

Can you still remember our dates? Our funny dates? Especially the romantic dates? They were all special, but the most special for me was the night that I asked you to marry me, although we know that we're arranged.

I kneeled down, opened the ring box and asked, "Would you be my wife?" You cried and...

...shook your head in disagreement.

Everybody inside the restaurant was shocked from what you've answered. And then you stood up and left me kneeling down.

I gave you space because I think that's what you need. But then, I have never heard of anything about you anymore. I have no updates.

I asked my parents when will be our wedding and they answered, "The Myoui's removed their stocks away from our business and stopped the arrangement." My shoulders fell and so is my heart.

So, is that why you ran away from me? If you really love me, you'll say yes to me no matter what because you love me. Because I would still do everything for us to be together.

By the way, Mina, when you read this, I would like to tell you something.

Please be at my funeral.

xoxo,
Jin.
