You woke up before your alarm.
Not because of fever.
Not because of noise.
But because your mind wouldn't stay quiet.
You stared at the ceiling.
And the first thought that came—
Why am I thinking about him so much?
You turned to the side.
Closed your eyes again.
"Stop it…"
But it didn't stop.
Because something had already changed.
💜 KITCHEN — SOFT NORMAL MOMENT 💜
You walked out slowly.
And saw him.
Taehyung.
In the kitchen.
Trying again.
This time—
less messy.
more careful.
You stood near the wall.
Watching.
Y/n said softly, "You're improving."
He turned.
A small pause.
Taehyung said, "Don't expect too much."
You smiled slightly.
And that moment—
Felt… normal.
Like two people who weren't broken.
💜 PHONE CALL — JIMIN 💜
Later—
Your phone rang.
"Y/n?"
Jimin's voice.
"Yeah…"
"How are you now?"
"Better."
A pause.
Then he said—
"You sound different."
You frowned slightly.
"What do you mean?"
Jimin replied softly—
"Lighter."
You went quiet.
Because…
he wasn't wrong.
"I don't know…" you said.
Jimin didn't push.
But before hanging up—
He said one thing—
"Just don't get hurt again."
That line stayed.
💜 OFFICE — DISTRACTED
You sat at your desk.
Laptop open.
Work in front.
But your mind—
kept going back.
To him.
To the way he spoke.
To the way he looked at you now.
💜 MEETING ROOM 👀
"Let's begin."
Taehyung stood at the front.
Professional.
Calm.
But today—
his eyes kept finding you.
"Manager Y/n, your update."
You stood up.
Explained everything clearly.
Your voice steady.
But your heart—
not so much.
When you finished—
Silence.
Then—
Taehyung said,
"It's good."
You froze.
Again.
Because now—
it wasn't just feedback.
It felt like—
he meant it.
💜 SMALL MOMENT
After meeting—
You were walking out.
He came closer.
Handed you a file.
Your fingers touched slightly.
Both of you paused.
Just for a second.
Then—
You pulled back.
Too quickly.
And walked away.
Your heart beating faster.
💜 YOUR THOUGHTS 💭
Why am I reacting like this…?
This wasn't supposed to happen.
You sat down.
Trying to focus again.
But failed.
Because now—
You were noticing him.
In ways you weren't before.
💜 EVENING — HOME 🌙
You reached home.
Sat quietly.
Thinking.
Not about pain.
But about confusion.
Door opened.
Taehyung walked in.
You looked at him.
And this time—
You didn't look away.
💜 EMOTIONAL CONVERSATION 💔💜
Y/n said softly, "Can I ask you something?"
He paused.
Taehyung said, "Yeah."
You took a breath.
Y/n said, "Why are you changing?"
Silence.
He looked at you.
Taehyung said, "I'm not."
You shook your head.
"You are."
A pause.
"You care now."
That word—
stayed in the air.
He didn't reply immediately.
💜 TRUTH MOMENT
You stepped closer.
Y/n said softly—
"When you didn't care… it was easier."
His expression changed.
You continued—
"But now…"
Your voice dropped—
"I don't know what to feel."
Silence.
Heavy.
Real.
💜 HIS RESPONSE
Taehyung looked at you.
For a long moment.
Then said—
"I don't know either."
No excuse.
No denial.
Just truth.
And that—
felt more real than anything else.
💜 FINAL SCENE
You both stood there.
Close.
But still—
not close enough.
Because something had started.
But neither of you—
knew how to face it.
