Do your thang
JIMIN JUST FINISHED A class session with the students and now it was Namjoon's turn to in charge. He was sweating so badly and he had to go down to the cafe to buy a drink for himself. As he made his way towards counter, he ordered a cup of hot coffee then waited till it was done.
"Here's your order, Sir. " The staff said as she handed him his coffee.
Jimin gave her the money then sat on the table while trying to chill down after 4 hours of dancing for non stop. It was kinda exhausting. As he was drinking his coffee, he looked down at the cup and smiled to himself. "Jieun loves coffee too, " he talked alone.
"I wonder what she's doing right now. " He sighed and took another sip of his coffee. He was worried about her but since he knows that she was with Jungkook, he's certain that she'll be fine. Jungkook will never let anything bad happens to Jieun because he loves her like his own sister. He's like a protective brother to her. And sometimes, he can get overprotective too.
He smiled like an insane people until someone suddenly poked his shoulder and sat across him. "Yo man, "
It was Namjoon. "You startled me. " Jimin was mad at him as he bothered him who was in the middle of overthinking.
"Why are you so fierce today? What are you thinking of? " Namjoon rolled his eyes and sat across him. Before answering him, Jimin looked at him up and down then raised an eyebrow.
"Aren't you supposed to teach the kids? Why are you here? " He asked.
Namjoon chuckled softly. "Yeah, but Taehyung came and offered to take my place. Even he's not one of the teachers anymore but at least he's a former dance and vocal coach here. So we can trust him, right? " He winked at Jimin.
He sighed. "Sure, besides he's our good friend. Why won't we trust him anyway. " He agreed with Namjoon.
"Anyway, what was you thinking? You looked so deep in the thoughts. " He commented while eating his apple pie.
Going back to the main topic, Jimin frowned and supported his chin with both of his hands. "I was thinking about Jieun. " He answered casually but the thing Namjoon said next was something really annoying.
"Why are you thinking about her? You guys are housemate. Aren't that enough for you? You meet her almost every hours. " He scoffed, making Jimin to roll his eyes in annoyance.
"I— forget it, you'll never understand anyway. " He sighed. "I was thinking about her ex. "
Namjoon turned to him and this time, he was serious. "She has an ex? " He asked. "I mean, she looks so innocent how can she has an ex and how could he broke up with such a precious person like her? " He was dissatisfied.
"That's because he didn't appreciate her enough. A jerk like him doesn't deserve to be with a good girl like Jieun. She deserves better. " Jimin cut him off.
"You seem so pissed off. Why? " Namjoon kept asking questions because he had no clues of what happened to them.
"His ex came to our apartment to meet her yesterday and he wants to get back. "
Namjoon choked as the thing was too much for him to swallow at once. "What?! " He hit the table. "Then what did Jieun say? " He asked.
"Of course she said no. "
"That's great. Then what are you worrying about? "
"I'm worried that she might change her mind and go back to that guy. " He sighed.
By getting that kind of answer from Jimin, Namjoon started to think; why should he worries about that?
He cleared his throat and looked at him. "So you're trying to say that you're afraid of losing her? Because you have feelings for her? "
Jimin looked at him. He gulped.
"What are you saying? That's ridiculous. We're just friends. " Jimin denied his feelings towards Jieun. He was afraid that Jieun will turn him down and their relationship will be awkward and she might refuse to meet him afterwards. The fact that the confession might affect their friendship was blocking him from telling her about his feelings. He didn't want to lose her.
Namjoon refused to believe him. "Just friends? " He scoffed. "That's what your mouth says. But how about your heart? Are you telling me the truth? I don't think so. "
His words is always matured and based on true facts. Jimin would sometimes lost his words whenever he debates with Namjoon. Because Namjoon is a person with wise words.
"Listen here, I don't care if you like her or not or you'll confess to her or not. But one thing I'm going to tell you, life doesn't bless you with a good woman twice. "
The way he talked was very casual but Jimin knows that he was serious. Namjoon never takes feelings matter slightly. He's the one who can understand Jimin and will guide him whenever he thinks he's wrong. .
"Your life, your choice. I have no rights to interfere in your business but all I can do is giving you advices. Because after all, we're friends, right? " He looked at Jimin.
Jimin smiled. "No, we're brothers. "
Jimin
I was walking with Namjoon at the park as we decided to enjoy the afternoon air. "If you don't mind, can I ask you what's her ex's name? " Namjoon asked.
I shrugged my shoulders. "I don't know his exact full name but Jieun called him Myundae. " I answered.
He chuckled after I told him his name. "He doesn't even have a nice name. " He commented.
"Aye, that's rude. It was his parents choice so we can't blame them. " I shook my head but still laughed at his joke.
He frowned, "Whatever, he has a bad attitude. I pity his parents for having a son like him. " He scoffed.
"Anyway, do you know how does her ex looks? " He looked at me as he suddenly felt like asking me the question.
I nodded. "Yeah, Jungkook once showed me his pic before throwing it into the trash bin. " I laughed when the moment reminisced in my mind. It was so funny when Jungkook ripped his picture then stepped on it before throwing it into the bin.
"Is he handsome? " He asked randomly while munching his nut.
I stopped my steps. "I don't know because I'm a guy and I'm not sure how girls see him. But— he has the look. " I answered and looked down at my feet, a slight feeling of insecure hits me at the moment which made me to stare down for a few seconds before Namjoon decided to speak again.
"Are you insecure about yourself? " He asked and stepped closer to me.
I failed to answer him. Instead, I stayed quiet and shrugged my shoulders. I heard Namjoon heaved a sigh then patted my shoulder. "You're more way better than that Myundae guy. Trust me, I'm telling you the truth. "
"And even if Jieun had to choose between you and him, I'm very confident that she'll choose you. Even if you ask her one thousand times, her answer will always be you. You're a good man. You're always there whenever she needs you. You love her sincerely. " He stated, making me to look at him.
"Love? " I didn't tell him that I have feelings for Jieun.
He laughed at how I reacted. "You still think that I don't know about that? The way you act whenever she's around you is so obvious. Everyone can tell it. " He scoffed at me.
Didn't want to waste our time standing on the same spot for hours, he decided to walk away and said, "Let's go, bud. Jieun won't like it if she knows that she's the cause of your obsession. " He joked.
"I'm not a psychopath. " I rolled my eyes.
Jungkook
After meeting up with Jieun, I went back to my house and now I was sitting on my balcony while staring out of nowhere, thinking about the thing she said to me. She met Myundae, her ex yesterday and she didn't even bother to call me. I was wondering why because she would always make sure that I'll be by her side whenever she's going through a hard time.
But this time, for the first time, she didn't.
As her best friend, I felt offended and sad because it felt like she ditched me. And I know what was the reason. Because she has Jimin now. She didn't call me but she asked Jimin to go back. I saw the text she sent to Jimin when she went to toilet. The thing I'm scared the most has happened. Being ditched by my own best friend.
Maybe it wasn't her intention. I know that she was worried that I was busy and she didn't want to disturb me. But the thing that she called Jimin instead of me— left a big effect on my heart. I'm her best friend, not Jimin. I'm jealous. It's not because I like her or something. She's my best friend and it's quite impossible for me to have feelings for her.
A lot of people had been claiming that it's impossible for a girl to be best friends with a guy without having any feelings. But that's totally wrong. Harry Potter and Hermione have proved that it's possible for a guy and a girl to be best friends without having any love feelings. I care for Jieun like my own sister. Even I'm the youngest among my siblings, but having Jieun in my life made me feel responsible as a brother. I have rights to feel jealous when she chose somebody else instead of me.
It hurts me in its own way. An unexplainable way. It's either she's getting more comfortable with Jimin than me or— she has feelings for him. I'm not sure.
But I have to find it out. If she has feelings for him, I can't block her. But I have to make sure that Jimin won't hurt her like her jerk ex did. I'll never let anyone hurt her again. I'm willing to do anything for her happiness. Even if it requires my soul and life.

"Do your thang, do your thang with me now." Jimin stopped singing when he saw Jieun was already standing in front of him without telling him that she was coming. "Jieun? You startled me. " He breathed while holding his chest.
Jieun chuckled and looked at him in a very soft way. "You're singing to little swan. " She smiled. "You have a nice voice and you never tell me. I'm mad now. " She crossed her arms.
By getting a sudden compliment from her, he raised an eyebrow and looked at her weirdly. "I have a nice voice? Really? Is it soothing enough to make you sleep? " He joked.
"I— what are you talking about? " She slapped his shoulder hardly. "Stop being a flirty or I'll ask Namjoon to kick your ass, " she scoffed but it made Jimin choked.
"Kick my ass? Sorry, but Namjoon will never do that to me. " He laughed. "But don't worry, I know Jungkook will do that for you because he cares about you more than anything. " He added while the both of them were walking to somewhere they didn't even know.
"So why are you here? " Jimin looked at her after stopped laughing.
She discontinued her steps and waited till Jimin do the same. He looked at her and waited until she says something. "Remember when I asked you to teach me how to translate a dance? You said dancers tell their stories on their dance. It shows how they are feeling and going through. But you refused, right? " She asked, making Jimin to lost his words. He had his own reason of why he didn't want to teach her. He stayed quiet.
When she realized that Jimin suddenly shut up, she stepped forward. "But I'm not blaming you. I know you have your own reason. But—" she stopped and looked at him.
"Can I ask something from you? "
"What is it? I'll try my best. " He nodded.
"I want to see you dance. Can I? " She asked. Jimin lost his words. But since he has started dancing again since the past few weeks, he thinks that there will be no problem if he dances for her.
So he nodded his head. "Sure, what song? "
"Little swan, your favourite song. " She answered right away.
Our favourite song.
