"So are you two on better terms now?" Taehyung asked as he sipped on his piping hot peppermint mocha.
"Who?" Yoongi asked confused.
"Me and my brother," Heyong answered with a small smile.
"You had a brother??"
She nodded and took a bite out of her donut. "He was in America for the last six years. That's why you don't know him."
"What happened that you two need to be on better terms? If you don't mind me asking that is," he quickly added.
Taehyung kicked Yoongi under the table and gave him a look. "Of course she minds! So stop asking. This is a secret between me and Heyong, right?" he said with a childish grin.
Yoongi bitterly rubbed his sore shin and smirked when Heyong rolled her eyes. "Ha! Heyong thinks you're stupid," he jeered.
"Why you little-"
"Guys. Please. I just got off work. Don't make me feel like I'm babysitting now," Heyong sighed. Taehyung and Yoongi pouted, but threw each other one more glare.
"My brother and I... were very close," she began. "But he left and I felt angry since I thought it was an act of betrayal. But it turns out everything was just a misunderstanding."
Taehyung bit back a smile and watched as Yoongi nodded in understanding. *Only I know the full story. Take that, Min Yoongi!* At that moment, both Heyong and Taehyung exchanged knowing glances while Yoongi sat on the sidelines, oblivious to it all.

"Heyong."
She snapped out of her daze and turned to Taehyung, who was walking next to her, frowning. "Did you hear anything I just said?"
"Oh no. Sorry. Can you repeat that?"
He sighed and leaned back. "What's on your mind?"
She fiddled with her fingers as she stared blankly ahead at the empty park road. "Nothing much... Just... My brother I guess. I still can't believe he's back."
"It must be nice... Having a family member that cares a lot about you," Taehyung said quietly.
Heyong stared at him, unsure of how to respond. "Is there... something you're not sharing with me?" She bit her lower lip as she watched him lace his fingers behind his back and let out a sigh, creating a white puff of air.
