"Yah! Stop acting off." I heard Jin whisper to Taehyung loudly.
Jin slapped Taehyung's arm and frowned at his behavior because he was just so weird now. It wasn't even the good kind of weird. It was awkward.
I mean he does talk to Jin and also me, but he gives me short replies. While he's at it, he doesn't even look at me in the eye. His smile kind of falters when he sees me now.
"Jin?" I asked him.
"Yeah, _____?" Jin looked at my reflection from the car's rear mirror.
"Can we go somewhere near by?" I asked him.
I didn't feel like going anywhere that would require a long car ride. I just didn't feel comfortable and I know Taehyung didn't either. Jin was just there to try and make things better. I'm grateful for that, but I can tell he senses the awkwardness too.
"Yeah, sure. Are you okay with that Tae?" Jin asked.
Taehyung nodded and put his hood on. I heard him sigh in the front and frowned at this behavior from the unusual calm monkey.
I really needed to ask Tae what was wrong. I don't think it's fair for him to act weird and not tell me. It's not good to keep stuff to yourself and from all my experiences, I feel so much better after talking things out to people or just letting out my feelings.
I will ask him later.

TAEHYUNG'S POVThe whole car ride was a mess honestly. Jin was trying to make the atmosphere not as awkward or dead in my case. But failed miserably to do so because he kept getting distracted on his phone.
Pretty boy was smiling and typing stuff back to whoever he was texting. HELLO? I AM A GOD DAMN PASSENGER. Pls take care of me and not kill me. Totally going to talk to him about whoever he was seeing. He's bad at being sneaky.
_____ would talk a little but then go back to being quiet or check on her phone too. With my constant sighing, it really didn't make matters better either.
I sighed and looked out through the window. It's only been like nearly ten minutes and I feel like getting out of the car.
I think we were going to get boba. Knowing Jin, he would want to get boba.
By the time we got there, I was glad to get out of the car and stand on my feet. _____ was smiling as she realized we were getting boba. I smiled softly at her cuteness but remembered about Jungkook instantly. I felt guilty and just like legit trash.
C'mon Tae. Don't go that way.
I watched as Jin walked into the boba shop with a huge smile on his face. I was going to follow him when I felt _____ grab my arm. I turned to my left and looked down at her.
Even though she wasn't a short girl, she was still tiny to me.
"Tae, we need to talk later. Okay?"
"Oh. Why?" I asked nervously.
"Something is off and you look sad. What happened to the crazy monkey, huh?" She gave me a small smile.
"Do we really have to talk about me?"
"Yes and if you don't tell me, Taejin is down the drain and going to replaced with Namjin." _____ playfully scolded me.
I felt better from her trying to make me better and I softly chuckled.
"Yeah. So tell me later okay?" She begged me and shook my arm roughly.
