Taehyung continued to serve customers efficiently, managing the bustling café with practiced ease. As he turned to take another order, he noticed HyoJoo shaking her head slightly, a subtle signal that indicated the arrival of new customers.
He looked towards the entrance and his eyes lit up with a warm smile when he saw Jungkook. However, his smile faded into confusion when he noticed the small figure that followed Jungkook inside the shop.

Jungkook returned the smile, a bit nervously, and gestured to Jimin.
"Hey, Taehyung. This is Jimin. I wanted to officially introduce you guys since things were odd last time "
Taehyung extended a hand, and Jimin shook it with a cold smile.

Taehyung's eyes darted from Jungkook's arm to jimin's eyes and back to Jungkook's eyes. He couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he saw Jungkook putting his arm around Jimin's shoulder.

Internally, Taehyung battled his emotions, reminding himself that he had no claim over Jungkook. They were friends, after all, and Jungkook was free to spend time with whomever he pleased. Yet, the green monster of jealousy continued to gnaw at him, hidden beneath his friendly facade. Taehyung forced himself to focus on his work, attempting to bury his feelings deep down, hoping they would fade away with time. He continued to serve other customers, all the while keeping an eye on Jungkook and Jimin, subtly observing their interactions without making it obvious.
