Minseo's POV

It was still raining and so Chanho's parents are expected to be late which I'm totally okay with because he's asleep anyway. We were in a 'family meeting' and we only hold these when there's emergencies or literally a family thing we have to do.

"So what are we here for?" Hoseok says as we were all gathered and it was after I checked up on Chanho. Namjoon and Jin look at each other before sighing.

"We need to talk. Like actually discuss. And this is one of the serious ones because we need to get rid of all this bad auras in the house. I know this may be awkward and some of you might not even care. Well. Guess what? I don't care that you don't care. I just want to fix this. This is getting stupid and waaayyy out of hand." Jin said. I look up at him as we all were blinking simultaneously.

"All of you! Minseo. Taehyung. And Jungkook." Namjoon says pointing over to us. I sigh as I knew that that's what we were here to talk about.

"Minseo. Please just make this less uncomfortable by choosing one. Or you can even say neither. We're fine with that." Jin says trying to explain and make things better. But he's right.

"We won't judge. But look. Please." Namjoon says calming me down but there was no need to. I do have to pick. But Taehyung still cheated.

"I love you." Both Jungkook and Taehyung say at the same time making it more awkward for the eight of us. Suddenly, I heard a big thud and something shatter upstairs. As a reflex, I picked up from taking care of Chanho, I propped up my seat and ran upstairs.

"You okay?" I said running into the room. I see Chanho was okay so I picked him up before patting his head.

"You scared me.." I said and he giggles sleepily.

"Noona.. I broke your picture on accident.." He says and I look over to where he was pointing and I see a collage picture of when Taehyung and I were still together. It was something we made together and it was the pictures that we had in our camera roll made out of glass. Like we had it printed on to glass but now it's all gone. I put Chanho down and walk over to the glass. I slowly start to pick it up as I didn't want Chanho or anyone getting hurt and maybe because I was sad it broke. Taehyung walks over and I start picking them up and placing them into my other hand.

"Minseo.. You're gonna hurt yourself. Just don't.." He says trying to stop me but tears were threatening to fall and all I could do was stare at the broken glass. Our sweet memories. Taehyung pushes me and tries to pull me away but I resisted and held onto the glass too hard.

"Ahh.." I said getting a cut. I stare at my hand and notice it was bleeding. Taehyung noticed and tried to pull me away but I continued stubbornly. He finally yanks me away and by now, the tears were streaming. I can feel his stare as I grip onto the glass tighter. He slowly gets closer making me flinch but he pulls my fingers out of the way and takes out the glass piece.

"Minseo.." He says and I burst into tears. Not at the pain of the glass, not because I was scared, but because I missed everything. I held onto it too long and now I'm the only one hurt and heartbroken.

"I'm sorry.." Was the only thing Taehyung said to me for a while until I fell into his arms tiredly. By the time I looked away, Chanho was gone and so were the others. And it was me and Taehyung again. Me and Tae..

"Taehyung.. I miss you.." I said quietly, not even if it was audible.

"Then Minseo.." He starts but I start crying harder.

"But you changed.. Too much that I don't know if I could ever handle it. I miss all our cuddles, the kisses we shared, the little moments we would have when one of us missed the other. But they all disappeared in your mind the moment you chose Nana.." I said, my mind full of jealousy, and tired of sitting up on the ground. Taehyung tries to calm me down by holding my arms but I shuffled everywhere unaware of anything.

"I didn't choose her. You know I chose you." He said and I didn't even have the strength to laugh or scoff.

"Taehyung.. There's nothing you can do to change that. So please.. Just don't make excuses. I'm so sick and tired of hearing those.. Just tell me why... Why you had to leave.. And why was I not good in for you.. I mean. Taehyung. What is the sex? Did I do something wrong?" I said trembling. He was now crying as well listening to me and he tried bringing me up to the bed but I shook my head like a crazy kid.

"Of course not.. Minseo. No. I was the one who made a mistake. I.. I don't know... Minseo.. I made a huge mistake and it's a huge sin that I never never should have made. But I did. And I'm sorry. I admit it."

"Taehyung.. Admitting isn't going to do anything. What do you admit? Did you have sex with her?" I said wiping my tears so I could listen more carefully.

"Yes..." He hesitated.

"Was it fun being with her?"

"At the time." He said making my breath hitch. I couldn't breathe for a bit before I swallowed a big chunk of saliva nervously. I bit my lip as it was now turned into a habit. I closed my eyes shaking and more tears ready to fall.

"Taehyung.. I want.. I want to choose you. I do. But I can't get over the fact you did what you did. Look.. We had a promise. And I trusted you to keep your promises. Both when I did and didn't have my memory. Taehyung. You were someone I trusted. Someone I respect. Be loyal and receive the same. And.. Someone I loved. But.. It's just not the same anymore." I said and he nods before I stand up weakly. My knees were giving out. But I stood up not caring about me anymore. I grabbed the trash can and a sweeper and cleaned the glass up. I walk out of his room and into the living room.

"Noona.. Are you mad I broke it?" Chanho says. I went up to him and shook my head.

"No. Chanho-ah.. Noona's just worried you got hurt. It's okay.. I cleaned it up." I said sniffling. He looks at me and brushes my hair.

"Noona.. Don't cry. I'm sorry." He says and I tried my best trying not to show him that I was sad.

"It's okay. I'm not crying." I said. He hugs me so I hug him back holding back the tears. As if on time, the doorbell rang. I walk up to get the door as Chanho followed.

"Hi!" I said to see his mom and his dad.

"Oh. I believe we haven't met. I'm Minseo." I said holding out my hand which was brave of me considering how bad I must look right now. The dad, nonetheless, shakes my hand.

"I'm Hyunwoo." He says and I smile.

"It's very nice to meet you." I said.

"And you as well."

"I'm sorry we took so long. Here's cash for today. I'm really sorry about everything." Chanho's mom says and I look at the envelope with my name on it.

"I can't take that." I said. The parents both stare at me as if I was crazy. His mom reaches for my hand so I instantly hid it so she could instead go for the other hand. And she did, handing me the money.

"Take it and especially for this necklace. You deserve it. Chanho seems to love you." She says and I sigh before bowing.

"Well.. I guess this is a good night." She said and I nod before watching them leave.
