'Today's biggest news: Successful lawyer Mr. Min Yoongi lost his first ever case!! But the most amazing thing is he chose to lose all by himself. And today we have Mr. Min here on our set, who is going to throw some light on this case. Will his record of never losing any of his cases break today?

So Mr. Min please.' The host passes the mic to Yoongi.

Yoongi starts the interview. '*ahem* So this case was about Business tycoon Singhania. His youngest son Sameer Singhania was accused of drinking and driving due to which he was involved in a accident that killed two small& innocent children who were crossing the road. Mr. Singhania his father especially came to me, requesting that i help him clear his son's name & for that he even offered me 50 crore rupees.'

'So Mr. Min are you trying to say that you took bribe from Mr. Singhania!? Are you accepting that in front of live television, In front of all the public!?.' The interviewer tried to add up spice to their conversation.

But Yoongi stays calm & answers. 'I accepted his case not his bribe.'

'Please elaborate.'

'I took the case because I knew if I will not then someone else will. & as a lawyer myself I can confirm, that to win a case some lawyers can cross any limits. I did not want to help him from the start, I just wanted to work for justice. That's why I pretended to work for him but in reality I was collecting evidence against him. I live by my morals that tell me: not to believe anyone without knowing them to the full extent.'

'Well that was really impressive Mr. Min. And with that these are the evidences collected by Mr. Min himself... Which shows that Business tycoon Singhania was involved in illegal drug dealings from outside the country. And from the reports of Singhania's family doctor, it was confirmed that on the day of the accident Sameer Singhania had also taken drugs along with alcohol. These were enough evidences to prove that they were the wrong ones. They were charged guilty & are supposed to be punished severely & are also told to apologize to the deceased parents in person.'

'It was all possible thanks to the righteous lawyer Mr. Min who did not have a greed for money & was not afraid to fight against a sinner like Mr. Singhania. His motto of not believing in anyone until they know them to the full extend will be a remarkable statement for the upcoming new lawyers.'

***********

Jungkook is watching the news about Yoongi on TV along with Jimin & Yeobin.

"THAT'S MY MAN. Good job Yooni." Jimin screams making both mother and son flinch. Yeobin gives him a slice of raw mango & he eats it, not forgetting to dip it in honey first.

"Yes really, Yoongi is such a smart boy & also very kind."

"I don't get it?" Jungkook says raising an eyebrow. "How did hyung find out all that? I mean I've heard so much about the Singhania's, they always did charity & helped people in need right? If I were in place of hyung i would just get the son arrested but never suspect Mr. Singhania."

"That's why you are here & my Yoongi-boongi is there on the TV." Jimin said proudly, while licking his honey covered fingers.

"Bunny what is there to be so shocked about. As Yoongi said he works by his motto of 'not believing anyone without knowing them to the full extent'."

Jungkook humms & gets off the couch going to his room. On entering his room, he walks towards the bedside drawers. He opens it and takes out a pair of anklets along with a bracelet. Both these jewelry pieces belong to Taehyung.

These are the same anklets that Jungkook removed from Taehyung's feets. He remembers how taehyung protested against touching his feet but Jungkook didn't listen to him & removed them with his own hands but later forgot to return them along with the bracelet.

He sits back on the bed as he stares at them intensely. He slowly mumbles. "I should not believe anyone without knowing them to the full extent." He then fists the anklets in his hand tightly, making up his mind. "Alright!! I'm going to find the truth. The real cheater between Hanwoo hyung & that little dramatic sh*t."

With that determination in mind he picks his phone & calls someone. "Hello, Kang Sora?"

(ɴᴇxᴛ ᴅᴀʏ)

So here Jungkook stands in front of 'Precious Flowers' that is Taehyung's flower shop.

"This shop looks basic, nothing special kook. Are you sure this is the place?"

Oh right!! Forgot to mention that he is accompanied by Sora as well as Nitu. Jungkook met Sora at a cafe near his house because he wanted to collect intel about Hanwoo & Tae's relationship. And who other than Sora can explain that, cause obviously she was their mutual friend.

But for some bizzare reason their meet turned into a shopping frenzy as Sora thought Jungkook wanted to spend some time with her. And on their way out to the shopping mall they met Nitu who apparently was looking for a flower boutique.

Long story short Jungkook was asked to be a guide for Nitu & he still wanted to ask various questions to Sora so he decided to drop Nitu here then leave. On top of that he was bothered by the two girls constantly glaring at each other. He has no idea why.

"Listen Niku Or whatever your name is... flowers are flowers. Doesn't matter if you buy it from some fancy boutique or a random footpath. Just take whatever the hell you want & get going on your way. You're wasting our time." Sora says as she plays with here long open hair with her fingers, giving a bored look to Nitu.

"First of all it's NITU. & it's not like you're on a date or something." Nitu barks back which resulted in both the girls glaring at each other for the nth time. Jungkook can clearly see the spark flowing between their eyes as if trying to burn each other. They huffed & turned their faces on opposite directions.

"Ok girls, let's get inside now. Shall we?" Without waiting for their reply Jungkook headed first followed by the two angry chickens.

Upon entering they were supposed to be welcomed by Niki; Taehyung's assistant, but they were blown away by what they encountered. Jungkook couldn't believe his eyes.

There behind the cash counter Taehyung is pressing his body against Niki in an intimate position. With his hands caging the sweet little girl. Niki is in her school uniform whereas Taehyung is wearing casuals.

(Niki's uniform, imagine a pocket over her chest area)

(Tae's casuals)

But the limit is crossed when Taehyung used his mouth to drag out a flower that was kept in Niki's front pocket; over her chest. Then he even had the audacity to smirk at the little girl.

Jungkook pokes the inside of his cheek, for some reason he feels a fire ignite within himself. He gets out of his self ignition state when a boy bumps to his shoulder but walks away without saying anything.

And having seen enough Jungkook moves quickly & instead of shoving Taehyung aside, he grabs Tae's hand & pulls him towards his own chest. "What the hell are you doing dramatic sh*t!? Stop messing with the little innocent girl, will you?"

Taehyung was first of all startled but regained his posture quickly. He whisper shouts at Jungkook. "Mind your own business." It is as if Jungkook didn't even exist in front of him because he is busy looking at someone behind Jungkook.

Jungkook is thrown off guard by Tae's tone & choice of words. He felt a slight pang in his heart.

"Taehyung what the hell!! I didn't know you liked small girls...ewww.." Nitu says while Sora is quietly watching.

"Huh! Oh it's you Nitu. I didn't see you anddd why are you here?" He said the last part to Sora. His tone coming out full of sarcasm. He rolls his eyes at Sora then moves his mouth as if chewing a chewing gum but in reality his mouth is empty. He just does this move when he is annoyed.

"Hey Tae..--"

"Whatever. State your business." Taehyung purposefully ignores Sora's words turning towards Jungkook. But Jungkook back questions him.

"What was that drama just now?"

"What dram.. oooo you mean me with Niki? You saw it clearly didn't you." Taehyung mocks.

"Taehyung you, you are unbelievable. I never imagined you to be someone so low & so...." Jungkook sounded both disappointed and disgusted.

Niki shakes her head moving infront of Taehyung with her arms spread wide as if shielding Taehyung.

"Stop. Taehyung oppa was helping me." She says defending Taehyung and Taehyung just goes back & sits on the counter chair with a blank look. "That boy who left right now was bothering me for a long time so I asked Taehyung oppa to pretend to be my fake lover & act lovey dovey in front of him." After saying that she hugs Taehyung. "Thank you sooo much oppa. I owe you."

Taehyung pats her head lovingly. "Silly girl you owe me nothing. You're like my little sister & it's my duty as your oppa to protect you. Now go & change your uniform & sit at the counter. I ordered some pastries for you."

"Wow pastries. Love you oppa." Niki smooches Tae's cheek then went off to the changing room.

Meanwhile Jungkook who got to know the truth felt guilty for accusing Taehyung & giving him a doubtful look. "Taehyung I'm so sorry, I...--"

"It's ok. It's not like you ever believed in me to begin with. I don't mind your disgusted looks.... Im used to it." Taehyung said with a straight face, with minimal expression, then goes to a customer that needed help. "Yes coming."

Jungkook was left speechless & also bothered. He wanted to apologize, wanted to say that it was not something that Taehyung should be used to. But all he did was stand there like a statue, his lips sealed in silent regret.

Nitu scoffs at him with her arms folded. "Huh.. that Taehyung, he's always so full of himself. Let's go Jungkookie." She tries to grab his hand but Jungkook moves back while glaring at her.

"You're not qualified to give me nicknames. Sora let's sit at the back, I want to talk to you. And Nitu if you're done picking the flowers you can go home, no need to wait for us." Without looking back he goes from there.

Sora smirks at Nitu then follows where Jungkook left to.
