You're currently roaming the isle at a grocery store, peering over products until you spot the right one.
There's a long list in your left hand while the other one's pushing a cart. Your mother had decided to bake something out of the blue only to realize her kitchen lacked seventy percent of the required ingredients.
So she sent you to get them.
It just so happens that Taehyung was sent by his mother the moment you yanked the door open. He had stood there a little bit surprised, with a fist hanging mid air, ready to knock.
He held a plastic bag on the other making you realize Mrs Kim decided to deliver some of her delicious cookies again.
Taehyung ended up coming with you to the store.
And he isn't being so much of a help.
Until now that is.
"You're going too fast." He suddenly says to break the ice of silence. You cross out yet again another item from the list as you dump a pack of onions in the cart.
"The sooner I get all these, the sooner I can go home and sleep."
"All you do is sleep." With an eye roll, he snatches the list from your hand and you yell at him in complain.
"Hey, give it back."
He turns his back on you when you reach for the piece of paper. So instead of grabbing it, you end up capturing the air as you clash at his back.
Taehyung casually scans the list with a firm stare as you haul yourself back three steps away from him. Then he heads towards the cart, suddenly returning the items back at their perspective places.
"What do you think you're doing?"
"Can't you read? It's says in here that she needs flour. Not corn flour." A bitter scowl crosses his face. But the expression he's making resembles more on frustrated disappointment. "Violet onions? She clearly wrote here she needed white. What's wrong with you? Should I get you some glasses while we're here?"
The fabric of your clothes creases when you cross your arms over your chest. "Fine. Since you're so good at reading, why don't you do it yourself?"
"Maybe I will."
"Fine."
He throws you an inquisitive eye brow. "Stop acting like a sulking child and let's go."
"Why you-"
He turns his back at you and pushes the cart to the next isle, ignoring you.
This boy really knows how to get on your nerves.
Now you're back at the dairy section. Taehyung returns the yogurt in the fridge and pulls out something similar to it. The only difference was the label.
You're beyond confused at this point. Is he playing with you? You take the previous yogurt and display it to him with a question. "What's wrong with this one?"
"See this?" He pulls up the list beside his face and pats it with a finger. "Original yogurt. That's a flavored one."
Oh.
So maybe you didn't properly go through the list written down.
You clamp your lips together and return the yogurt back. Taehyung seems satisfied with your silence and nudges you to follow him.
"Let's go over there."
Thirty minutes goes by and you're now entering your house with hands grasping plastic bags.
"Did you two have fun?" Your mother appears from the kitchen and reaches a hand forward to take the bags. But Taehyung retaliates by keeping it from her arm's reach. A soft smile decorates his lips as he says.
"It's heavy auntie. I'll take care of it."
You silently scoff behind him. If there's one thing both your parents didn't know, is the fact that Taehyung's two faced. He acts sweet and innocent in front of your parents, but when he's with you? It's a whole different story.
And you blame his girlfriend for that.
You could say that, that's the only reason you're tolerating him. He didn't change out of will. He was just manipulated and influenced by the wrong person.
You ended up walking ahead to drop the items at the kitchen. It doesn't take long before Taehyung walks in on you standing on a stool and shoving boxes of items at a cabinet.
"Need any help?"
"Stupid height." You hiss under your breath, twisting your heel to step down."Yeah, could you-"
One wrong move was all it took to have the stool shifting beneath you. One second you're bracing yourself for the worst, and the next, strong arms wrap themselves to catch you just in time.
So instead of feeling the floor beneath you, you're laying on top of a body.
Taehyung releases a raspy groan and you can practically feel the vibration from his chest.
Well, isn't this nice?
You landed right on top of him.
When he releases a sigh and rests his palm beside your head, it's like he's already done with life and is ready to ascend - descend to hell.
"I swear there's never a day you make me not worry about you."
