Taehyung is one of the calmest and most balanced people this world has ever seen. Anyone who has personally or even not personally met him will confirm this. And even many years of rumors about him and other idols did not touch him, he ignored any questions, not wanting to justify himself to anyone. Keeping excessive emotions to himself, he never thought that he would break down.
But no, it still happened.
«Taehyung-nim, even though a fan tried to force you into marriage in the fall, you didn’t even raise an eyebrow. And just recently, due to renewed rumors about your relationship with Jennie you have been accused of...», — reporter journalist, standing next to the microphone and actively gesturing at the camera, was choosing his words, although it was clear that he knew perfectly well what he was talking about, — «...cheating on your colleague, member and friend Jungkook. Do you have any thoughts on this matter?»
Taehyung held his face, and not a single muscle flinched while he looked at the reporter with indifference, listening carefully to him, but not commenting on it in any way. Another provocation to spread new rumors and subsequently a scandal and wars between fans. But for so many years, it seems, nothing has changed.
Taehyung’s jaws moves a little, restraining himself. The idols standing nearby, including Jennie herself on the red carpet, silently look at the reporter, feeling the tension in the air. Now the cameras are on Jennie too. Do they want an honest answer? Okay, he doesn't mind.
«Does this make sense to comment? This is not the first time that we have been accused of something. Why should I justify my every step if someone can safely go beyond the boundaries of what is permitted? You need a specific answer to spread new rumors. Please. I'm not gay and I'm not dating anyone of the same gender».
«Let me ask, and with...», — man doesn’t have time to finish.
«Yes, I'm dating Jennie», — Taehyung’s absolutely cold expression and overly calm voice destroys this atmosphere of understatement.
