Excuses

***Yoongi's POV***

*flashback to when Yoongi was still alive 5 years ago*

I stood on the edge of the hospital building. I couldn't bear the pain any longer. My love, my Suran had left me. She had just passed away a few hours ago.

She promised me she will fight this cancer. She was going to beat it and continued to live. She was going to live for me. But in the end, I'm left all alone. How could you leave me?

Our time together flashed through my mind as I jumped off the building following her.

When I opened my eyes, I was greeted by a man dressed in black.

"Min Yoongi. You have committed the greatest sin a person could ever commit. You took your own life so you will be punished for your sins," the man said.

"You will become a grim reaper and lead people to the afterworld. All your memories of when you were still alive will be intact. You will be stuck wandering the world with the memories of you and Suran. You will suffer alone while Suran goes to heaven."

After he spoke, I could see Suran's ghost. She looked at me with so much hurt in her eyes.

"Why Yoongi?" was all she could say before she was dragged by the man in black suit.

She turned to look at me with tears in her eye. The man in black snapped his fingers and a white door magically appeared out of nowhere. He opened it and waited for Suran to walk through.

Her gaze never leaving mine.

'I love you, Min Yoongi' she mouth to me before finally breaking the eye contact between us and head towards the door.

"Suran!" I called out to her, but I was too late. She walked through the white door. The man in black followed her and closed the door. Just as it appeared, it vanished the moment the door closed shut.

*End Yoongi's flashback*

I opened my eyes and see Taehyung looking at me with pity in his eyes.

"Yah, I didn't tell you my story so you could feel sorry for me. I didn't want you two to end up with the same fate as me and Suran. I committed suicide and became a grim reaper. If Seoyeon doesn't fall in love then her depression will only get worse. She will end up taking her own life just like the other day. She will keep trying until she succeeds. And once she does, I will be back for the both of you, but she will be stuck behind wandering the world alone.... just like me."

***Taehyung's POV***

"Thank you, Yoongi Hyung. I'll be sure to complete my mission."

"You better," Yoongi answered and with that, he disappeared.

I felt really thankful to Yoongi Hyung for the new information. Now I am more determined to complete my mission. I need to, for Seoyeon's sake.

I turned around to see where Jungkook and Seoyeon were. They were walking towards the door and Seoyeon was walking ahead of Jungkook. I followed after the two.

***Jungkook's POV***

I watched as she walked towards the door. She's was so out of it and was going to run right into the door. I quickly walked behind her and held onto her shoulders to stop her. She turned around and looked me in the eye. Her cheeks turning pink on me. She quickly apologized and bowed before she turned around and grabbed the door handle. She turned it quickly and ran as fast as she could inside. I couldn't help but smile at how adorable and clumsy she was.

***Seoyeon's POV***

What the hell is wrong with you Seoyeon!

I stared at my own reflection in the mirror of the restroom.

Why is your heart fluttering every time you see him?

I was angry at myself. My heart was racing when he held my shoulder earlier.

How could you? How can your heart beat fast for someone else besides Taehyung?

"Ani, I was just surprised by the sudden skinship that it caused my heart to beat a little faster than normal."

Yes, that was it. I am not falling for Mr. Jeon.

*Time Skip 2 weeks*

I have been trying my best to avoid any alone time with Mr. Jeon. Every time he asks a question I reply with a simple and short answer. He gives me projects to work on with him, I would take it to my desk and insist on working on it alone.

For the past 2 weeks, I've declined all lunch with him. I had Hani as an excuse for lunch, but he's been asking me every night to eat dinner as well. And even on the weekend. I'm running out of excuses.

I'm sorry Mr. Jeon I have plans tonight.

I have to meet up with my brother tonight.

I have to feed my dog. (I don't have a dog.)

I have to walk my dog. (Again I don't have a dog.)

What excuse am I going to tell him this time?

"Miss Seoyeon-ssi, I would really like to have dinner with you tonight. I have something that I have been wanting to tell you," Mr. Jeon asked interrupting my thoughts.

"Um, I uhh..." I stuttered to him. I haven't even thought up an excuse yet and here he was asking again me once again.

"I won't take no for an answered tonight." He said and he grabbed my wrist and started to drag me towards the elevator. He pressed the down button and while we waited for the elevator, he never let go of my wrist.

"Mr. Jeon, please let go of me. There are people around."

"So. Let them see. If this is the only way I can eat dinner with you then so be it."

"Okay. I promise I'll eat dinner with you tonight. Please let go." I begged him.

He turned towards me and had the biggest grin on his face. He let go of my wrist and I felt a bit disappointed that he actually listened to me. I looked up at him and his brown orbs shined so brightly back at me.

He looks just like a cute little bunny right now.

I shook the thought out of my head and lowered my gaze.

Stop it Seoyeon.

But my heart wouldn't listen. It kept pounding away in my chest.

***Taehyung's POV***

Jungkook had been wanting to confess to Seoyeon for a while now. He had been practicing how to tell her and even asked me if it good or not. He was seriously sweating balls every time it came to Seoyeon. I want to help him, but I wasn't really sure how to communicate with him since he couldn't hear me. I couldn't write letters since my body had become so light. Most of the time now, I can't even touch anything anymore.

But when I can, I grab flyers of Italian restaurants and leave them all over for him to see. I left the flyers around his desk, car, and anywhere I could that would catch his eye. I was trying to tell him to take her to dinner. He seemed to have caught on and have been asking her nonstop to go to dinner, but Seoyeon had rejected his offer every day. She doesn't even have a dog to feed or walk. She just doesn't want to be alone with Jungkook.

He must have some sort of effect on her. I'm pretty sure he does, that would be the only reason why she is avoiding him. I think she has already fallen for Jungkook. The way she stutter and turn shy around him. I need her to accept Jungkook. I need her to love him. I need her to live.

I watch as Jungkook dragged Seoyeon to the elevator. It seems like he is determined that tonight is the night. He took her to the Italian restaurant across the street. He caught on to my hints.

Good job Jungkook.

I followed them and walked through the door. Jungkook must have reserved the whole place because it was empty. They were escorted to a table for 2 that had a candlelight dinner. It was perfect. Seoyeon loves this kind of romantic dinner.

I smiled to myself.

I think my mission may be coming to an end soon.
