Yoongi asks the driver to wait for him as he takes Sara inside her house. She manage to press 3 wdhen they were at the elevator, while he holds her arms to keep her steady. Once she's inside her place, Yoongi turns to leave but she holds on to his arm.

"Aren't you staying?"

He takes her hands off from him. "No, that's why I have the driver waiting. Go to sleep." He said. He had the door open when she calls out to him again.

"Thank you for taking me home." She said. He shuts the door behind him and left.

The next day, he gets surprised when someone rings the doorbell at his place.

"Hi." Sara shyly greets him. "I made some soup as a thank-you gift for seeing me home last night."

Yoongi stares at her before ruffling his hair as he exhales loudly. "How did you know where I'm staying?"

"I asked some people. Sorry to intrude." She says.

"You know what, your apologies is getting into my nerves, can you just cut it out?"

"Sor- I mean, I will try." She replies dropping her eyes to the floor.

He gives another sigh, he feels bad that he has to snap at her every time they get to be together. It's his defense from getting himself be completely smitten with her again. "Well, come on in." He says in a calmer voice. Sara follows him inside his place carrying the bag that had the soup she brought. She sets it on the table quietly, opening it for him.

"You're the one who needs the hang over soup more than me." He tells her when he sees the soup.

"I already had some at home." She replies. "I wanted to impress you with my cooking skills but unfortunately, this is the only dish I've made I that I've heard other people say taste good."

He smirks at her statement. Sara couldn't cook which is why he's the one who usually did that task for them before. Looking back at their past is bad but he can't help it when she is right in front of him. It brings back so much unwanted memories and feelings. He takes a spoon and tries the soup she made. It's actually good and he is a bit hungry because he hasn't eaten anything yet. He decides to ask something that had bothered him since the previous night.

"Since when did you learn how to drink that much?"

Sara continues to look down not daring to look at him. "Since I got here. I needed an outlet to forget my guilt."

Yoongi stops eating and just looks at her. She looks sincere, and he knows her well enough that he can tell how honest she is being right now. He doesn't want to feel sorry for her. He suffered too and it's not easy for him either considering what he had to do for her. Damn his feelings it's getting him all baffled. He studies Sara's features and takes notice that she is still just as pretty as before. She used to be on the skinny side but now she's filled in the right places. He finds himself looking at her breasts and he shakes himself as he remembers how they feel in his hands. Her eyes looks up at him and he finds himself drowning in them the way he used to. His heart starts beating faster.

Sara continues to look at him. "I've missed you so much Yoongi."

That untangled the knot he had in himself, he cannot hold it back. She is his first real love, the one he changed his ways for. The feelings he had for her seems to resurface seeing her like this. He moves close to her and kissed her lips. Her arms goes around his neck quickly, gluing herself onto him, responding to him and showed him how sorry she really is. It's as if they're just continuing their yesterday and the two years that passed didn't exist.

Yoongi pulls back from the kiss. "Wait, we can't." He said moving away from her. "I don't want to gamble with you again."

Sara comes closer to him despite of his words. "I still love you."

"We will only be going in a circle and end up having to deal with you having to choose between your career and our relationship." He replied shaking his head. His past hurt gets relived again. Hearing her say she still loves him moved him and yet, he didn't want to get fooled by words again.

"You once said that we can make things work with me here and you back home." Sara reasons out.

"That was before."

"But we can give it a try. You're already here with me Yoongi. You kissed me first which means you still feel something for me. Let's give our relationship a second chance please."

"Don't judge me based on me kissing you. I've kissed a lot of women after you and all of them had that same idea that I feel something for them." He replies without looking at her.

Sara was silent until she asked. "Do you want me to leave?"

Yoongi wanted to say yes but he couldn't make himself say it. "If you want to go, I won't stop you." She surprises him when she hugs him from behind.

"I want to stay with you." She says.

Yoongi shuts his eyes as his self control starts to get weak. "What do you want from me?"

Sara hugs him tighter. "You, I want you Yoongi."

Yoongi grabs her and pulls her roughly towards him, kissing her savagely ignoring her gasps of pain. He is still mad at her for the way she treated him before, he is frustrated with himself for wanting her in spite of everything she did to him.

"I thought you were going to hate me for good." Sara tells him moments later as she lay on his bed.

"I wanted to." Yoongi answers softly.

"Thank you for forgiving me." Sara tells him before giving his lips a quick peck.

There's a wicked glint in his eyes when he pulls her up to him. "Your thank you is good but it's not enough" Sara giggles as she straddles him before kissing him again.

Yoongi is sincere in wanting his relationship back with Sara. Seeing her again and hearing her apologize over what she did rekindled the feelings he thought had died. He couldn't keep his anger with her stay specially when she gives her puppy eyes look on him. He's not sure if his love for her is as strong as it had been before. The fact that she once have hurt him remains.

Hobi sends a picture of them gathering together for dinner for a Friday night out. His eyes lands on Aliya who was smiling with Jimin and Jungkook next to her. On the other picture, she's not looking at the camera but seems to be laughing over what Jin is telling her because both of them were not looking at the camera. She looks happy and he is glad that she is. She deserves it. There's an unexplainable numbing feeling in his chest. He closes his phone and tried not to look at the pictures again.

He and Sara both agreed that they need to keep their professionalism at work, they didn't tell anyone about their relationship. They avoided being seen together at work. As much as possible, he didn't want her staying for the night at his place either. Going to her place is out of the question because she has a housemate who works in the same office as well. He personally have set the boundaries and he's not even sure which direction they'll be going with their relationship because his assignment here isn't permanent. He didn't want to give his all to Sara again, being hurt before made him guard his feelings. He does feels contentment as his resentments from her faded, he is at peace.

Aliya's birthday comes and he had asked one of the secretaries from work to send the painting to her place before he left. He painted it earlier because he wanted to give her what she asked from him. The sunrise is the very first idea he had in mind knowing how much she loves it. He surprisingly finished it quickly and he is happy with the results of his hard work. It had taken him so long to think of a name for the picture. He thought of how his relationship with Aliya started and how it ended and there's only one thing that'll describe it, a sweet break from his playing ways with women.

He had taken Sara out for dinner when Hobi calls him and shows how Aliya gets tossed in a pool. He didn't expect Hobi to give her his phone and he finds himself staring at her while the water drips from her face. His mind goes back to those times they were together, seeing her like this in the shower...he shakes those thoughts away.

Aliya gives him one of her smiles and he feels himself catch his breath. He thought his relationship with Sara would stop him from thinking about her. Things are still new and if he gives it more time, he is sure he'll be able to completely forget whatever feelings he has for Aliya.

The receptionist from the restaurant motions to him that their table is ready, he nods his head. He wanted to ask Aliya if she's received his gift but Sara comes to tell him their table is ready. He had to end the call before Sara hugs his arm as they walked together.

***********************************

Aliya's tears drops down her cheeks as she watched her mom march down the aisle. This is the second wedding she attended this year that got her crying. She is happy that her mother found a second chance at love but she felt sad for her dad too, even if he passed away. He'd always be her mom's first love but he isn't her last. She is such a sucker for happy endings but she just learned that happily ever after with the same man isn't for everyone.

Her mom insisted that she invites her friends for her wedding. Namjoon greeted her a bit strange as he arrived with Nari. He gave her a sad look before giving her a tight hug. She looks at his fiancee curiously but she only shrugged in reply.

They got to talk more about it during the reception.

"I wish I knew the answer too Aliya. I'll try to pry and keep my ears and eyes open. I'll let you know more about it later." Nari replies. "So how are you? Did you get to talk with Yoongi again?"

"Not since my birthday. I don't know how to describe it but it feels like a part of me is empty. I miss him a lot. I know I've decided to let him go but there's a stubborn strand that trying to hold on to him"

"Well, it ain't over 'til it's over." Nari encourages her. "You'd see him soon since the lake house deal is closed. Everyone will be gathering next week, I think he's coming. Maybe you can charm him back. He can't say no to you."

Aliya's heart pounds in her chest at the thought of seeing Yoongi again and over what Nari said. Maybe she'll give it a shot. It's time to pull out her bold and confident self again. She decided to take another risk. It's stupid and yet she wanted to give it a try, charm him back to her. That night during Taehyung's wedding, he was the one who approached her. Perhaps, she can try turning the tables and see what happens. She's willing to take a chance to get him back to her. The thought of not trying is what scares her more because she'll forever live in regret.
