he was silenced. like a dead person. he didn't respond to her touch. to the kiss. his soft eyes stared at the closed eyes, her lips delved deep for his affection yet didn't gain a thing. she was skeptical about it - that he really didn't bore any feelings for her the entire time.

their lips pulled apart, her breath taunted the air. while he never even budged, she panicked inside. his eyes flashed no sort of emotions, but his face glowed ominously.

"it was easy, like a transparent wall." he said, again.

his words kept chiming in her ears like an echo through a hall. but she realised something. jimin wasn't the only who could read her, but a man named kim taehyung could also see through her glass.

"i lost . . . the bet."
