[COMPLETED] Kim Taehyung, the charming CEO of an innovative tech empire, and Jeon Jungkook, the fiercely competitive yet soft-hearted owner of a rapidly growing fashion conglomerate, have always been at odds.
When a mutual business deal forces them...
Jungkook was now on the streets, the city around him buzzing .
He clutched his phone, the glowing screen displaying Taehyung’s name. His finger was over the call button for a moment before pressing it.
It rang twice before Taehyung picked up.
“Jungkook?” Taehyung’s deep voice responded.
“Where are you? I need to talk to you. Please.”
“I just came out to eat. I had come to Haneoul, the restaurant that we had gone to??? now I'm gonna leave. Why? You wanna join me Kookie? he teased.
Kookie ?? That's new. Jungkook chuckled. He could hear Taehyung walking.
"I - I just wanted to meet you in person ... there's something that I wanna tell you. That is ..if you're free and not up to anything "
“Shhhh.. tell me where you are and I'll come right away .. .. afterall I do care about you, Jungkook....
....more than I probably should.”
Jungkook got goosebumps .
He was elated that things were becoming better ..way better than he had imagined.
A faint ray of hope that took away all the emotional baggage from the last few weeks.
And then through the phone, he heard it—the screech of tires and a loud crash!
“Taehyung?” Jungkook shrieked in panic.
It was followed by the sound of something heavy hitting the ground. The phone clattered, and Taehyung’s voice disappeared.
“Taehyung!” Jungkook screamed, his blood running cold.
***
The scene shifted. Jungkook found himself in Taehyung’s penthouse, sitting right over the spot where they had kissed. It was right here by the grand piano in the corner. Then he saw Taehyung pull back get up and leave.
***
The scene shifted again, and now Jungkook was standing outside Haneoul restaurant, the one where they went to the first time all alone.
His eyes immediately found the people gathered in a circle outside, whispering, pointing, some filming on their phones.
Jungkook pushed through the crowd, Huss pulse quickening.
And then he saw him.
Taehyung lay on the road, his coat dirty. His lifeless eyes stared up at the sky. His phone lay shattered a few feet away, the call to Jungkook still active.

“No, no, no…” Jungkook dropped to his knees, grabbing Taehyung’s shoulders and shaking him.
"Taehyung ,get up! Open your eyes Taehyung!"
The onlookers blurred into shadows, their talking grew louder. His entire world collapsed in that moment,.
Then, Taehyung’s eyes flickered open. “You couldn’t save me.”
Jungkook shot upright in bed, gasping for air, his heart pounding .He was covered in his own sweat that even drenched the sheets. It took him several moments to realize it was a nightmare.
But his body reacted as if he had truly lost Taehyung.

Shaking, Jungkook reached for his phone on the nightstand and dialed the only number that could ease his fear.
“Taehyung..,” he whispered when the call connected.
