"Jennie..." Taehyung wanted to stop her; Jimin was already feeling crappy, so Jennie's question was obviously adding insult to injury.
"Don't butt in, let Jimin answer. He's a man, you shouldn't protect him like a woman," Jennie said, word for word.
"Ahem... sister-in-law, you sure are domineering." Bang Chan gave her a thumbs up.
Jimin looked up and said slowly, "Of course I get tired. I'm not Jesus, for not crying out loud, I'm still human. Sometimes I also feel like a fool, knowing that my feelings for her aren't reciprocated. I want Lisa to be by my side, but... things aren't that easy... I like her, and that's my problem. I didn't trouble her, nor did I purposely try to break them up, so I feel like my feelings for her are somewhat justified. Plus, to tell you the truth, when I fell for her, I didn't know she was married. No one wants to become the 'other man' on purpose, and I'm not a man who's short on women, so why would I target a married woman? I get all that, but my heart doesn't... I told myself to give up more than once, and that I will never get a chance with her, but every time I do, my heart begins to throb... In the end, I decided to push all those thoughts away and just like her. You guys all know I like Lisa, the entire world knows I like Lisa, even Lisa knows I like her. I think it's for the best. She's not mine, but my love for her isn't cheap or twisted... At least I won't hit Jungkook when he's down, and at least I didn't look for ways to break them up, right?"
The three of them fell silent upon hearing this...
Jimin was speaking the truth. He then added, "Honestly, you guys don't have to feel bad for me at all. I think it's rare for a person to meet someone he's willing to do anything for, it really is. Not everyone is as lucky as I am, so even if Lisa doesn't end up dating me, I still think it's for the best... I'm just letting things be, really... I don't want more from her... I'm satisfied as is."
Jimin knew that he couldn't be too greedy; it was good enough that he could occasionally see her, read her instagram updates, and listen to friends talk about her...
If she was meant to be his, she would be his one day. If she wasn't, then he was not going to force her...
So, he had decided to admit defeat and let things be... He was speechless that God purposely toyed him like this and arranged such a deadly encounter...
"My boy Jim..." Tears circled in Bang Chan's eyes, the grown ass man was so touched by Jimin's words.
"Don't cry, dude, I'm not dying. Let's drink."
Jimin smiled bitterly. Then, he picked up his beer bottle and went back to drink with Bang Chan and Taehyung.
Jennie calmed down and fell silent...
Truth be told, she was going to convince Jimin to give up; but after what he said, she thought he had a point.
He didn't hurt Lisa or put her in danger, so why shouldn't he be allowed to like her?
Forcing Jimin to forget about Lisa was a little cruel...
Jennie looked at Lisa and Jungkook's happy smiles on her phone and suddenly felt like it was a gift from God for Jungkook to still be able to get Lisa back, after 7 years.

After Bambam and Chaeyoung watched a movie, they shopped around.
Chaeyoung was your typical shopaholic and never left empty-handed.
Sometimes, she would force herself to buy some bras or panties if she really didn't know what to buy.
It had become a vicious cycle, so she didn't have a lot saved up over the years.
