The two went back to The Brew. Taehyung offered to get Jungkook a drink which he declined. Taehyung got himself a cup of coffee and they both sat down at a quiet corner. Jungkook stared out the icy cold window while Taehyung contemplate on starting a conversation.

A couple seconds tick by...

No words exchanged.

Seconds turn to minutes.

Silence.

The only sound audible was the classical ambience playing in the background. Jungkook looking out the window, Taehyung staring down on his cup of coffee.

One of them eventually gave up.

Jungkook: Are you going to talk or are we going to sit here till The Brew closes?

Taehyung: Oh y-yeah. I don't know how to start

Jungkook: You start after a full stop

Taehyung: I don't think I get it

Jungkook: When you complete a sentence, you end it with a full stop and begin a new one right after, correct? So yes, start after a full stop

Taehyung: There wasn't any full stop to begin with

Jungkook: Your point?

Taehyung: I've too many unsaid words

Jungkook: Use this time wisely then

Taehyung: Jungkook.. I

Jungkook: Before you start, can I know why are you eager to see me? Shouldn't you be with her?

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: Wait. Wow. How pathetic

Jungkook got up to leave. Taehyung held his hand, looking up at him with pleading eyes.

Taehyung: Sit. Please.

Jungkook: Fine. Make it quick

Taehyung: Can we start over?

Jungkook: Who do you think I am? A kid?

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: You don't lose someone and then suddenly ask an old flame to get back to you

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: You think life is a game, huh?

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: It won't be as easy as ABC or 123

Taehyung: Yes you're right

Jungkook: And now we are done

Taehyung: No

Jungkook: Pardon?

Taehyung: We are not done

Jungkook: You're just stalling me

Taehyung: Yes, now listen

Jungkook: Let's hear it

Taehyung: You're right. Life isn't easy. I can't have everything I want

Jungkook: I'm listening

Taehyung: I have to work for it. I have to put in effort

Jungkook: Uh huh and?

Taehyung: That's what I'm going to do

Jungkook: Okay and?

Taehyung: I'm not going to win you back

Jungkook: Go on

Taehyung: I'm going to remind you

Jungkook: Of?

Taehyung: Of how you fell for me

Jungkook: And?

Taehyung: If I fail, we cut ties for good

Jungkook: Sounds good

Taehyung: So now can we start over?

Jungkook: Yes you may

Taehyung: Hi, my name is Kim Taehyung and I'm very persistent

Jungkook: Hi, my name is Jeon Jungkook and I'm very hard to get

Taehyung: Nice to meet you

Jungkook got up to leave without answering.

Taehyung: No nice to meet you too?

Jungkook: Didn't I say I'm very hard to get?

Taehyung: And didn't I say I'm very persistent?

Jungkook: In that case, you'd try harder next time won't you?

Taehyung: So there'll be a next time?

Jungkook: Depends on you, Mr Persistent

Taehyung: Looks like I'm already making  progress

Jungkook: Whatever. I'm off
