After dropping me home, Jin and I shared our phone numbers and then he went back to work.

"Well, today most certainly did not go according to plans..." I mumble as I set foot inside my home and drop on the couch.

My mind drifts away to Felix and suddenly, I just can't see anymore what I found so attractive in him. Was I that blind? Was it an aftereffect of his betrayal? Maybe both.

I feel anger more than anything else and decide that I need to get it out, so I get my recording app and start humming a song, going with the flow of my heart.

It starts soft before going more on the heavy side, many instruments going through my mind that could reflect just how much this situation affected me.

At the end, my panting self goes to get my laptop and I start playing with my files to create a complete melody.

"Guitar and bass would be perfect... maybe even drop some piano for the more emotional parts..." I tell myself as I get the mentioned instruments and install them around me in the living room.

And the many next hours are spent working to bring life to that piece of my life that will be piled on top of the others with no purpose. But it's a soothing process, something healing, because once the emotions are out, they don't suffocate me anymore. The disappointment becomes numb, instead giving place to the satisfaction of being free from something toxic.

Jin's POV

When I reach home, I'm greeted by a chorus of "Welcome back" from my two younger brothers. Today is a Sunday, so they were going to do a movie day while I was at work. After driving Y/N to her home, I went back to the bakery because I couldn't abandon my worker any longer since he was alone.

The poor man looked almost skinned alive when I came back, droopy eyes staring at me as if I did the most terrible thing I could ever do. The next few hours consisted of questions about how supposedly I have found my soulmate. And how she rejected me. I didn't waste any time trying to explain it to them, why should I? It's my life, our private matter, I don't want random girls to know everything.

I sigh loudly and drop myself on the couch between Taehyung and Namjoon. The latter puts the movie on pause and both turn to me with curious eyes. "Did something happen today at work?" he asks me with concern.

I close my eyes and lean back on the couch. "I met my soulmate today. But when she first saw me, she ran away because, believe it or not, she was being deceived by someone else who called himself her soulmate". Silence. "WHAT?!" the both of them yell and I wince. My poor ears.

"Did she reject you?" Taehyung then asks and I spring up on my feet before turning to the both of them. "No! She was just obviously shaken up, but we spent time together, shared numbers and I'm willing to take it slow with her. We'll start as friends, I don't want to overwhelm her" I explain with a loud voice that gradually calms down to a normal pitch.

"Ohhh, my big brother is so great, she's lucky to have you" Namjoon coos with a smile. I scoff but can't hide the smile that follows. I look away to try and hide the burning of my ears. "Of course I'm great, I'm worldwide handsome, what do you expect?". Taehyung giggles and pulls me back on the couch before wrapping himself around me like a koala. "Will we be able to meet her soon? What is she like?" he asks with excitement in his voice.

I think back to her, to how pretty she is, her beautiful curves that make her seem so huggable, I could imagine cuddling with her warm and soft body... No, Seokjin, slow down. Don't make this hard for yourself, be patient.

"She seems very sweet, kind and warm, she's not scared to say what's on her mind, she doesn't act like she's someone she's not. She's calm, being with her is soothing, appeasing. Her smile is the best thing I've ever seen in my life... I'm sure you'll meet her eventually, but not now, Tae-ah, she needs time first" I tell them, eyes focused on the memory of her face.
