• Part 20 - CYRTANTHUS •
"Don't do that monkey."
"Ok~"
"I wish you were my teacher."
"It's ok. I can teach you at home. But pay attention in school too, maybe you'll like your new teacher more than me."
"Ok mom."
"You're so lucky you got my mom as a teacher."
"Yes y/n."
"Mom can I bring my friend home? She's nice."
"Byee! See you in middle school!!"
"Mom why is her dad scary?"
*chuckle*
"I didn't know she had a brother."
Y/a : Y/n. We're here.
You were broken out of your trance.
Y/a : Earth to y/n.
You smiled and got off. You looked around and ran to the circle of your friends who were looking down at something in the centre. You pushed yourself in.
Y/n : Sup guys?
Jennie: It's the pictures taken by Joon of the museums and all that he visited.
Jin : Wah! This is so cool.
Taehyung: Where is this?
Namjoon : It's in Seoul itself. The one near Gyeongbokgung Palace. It's absolute heaven.
Taehyung: Ooo~
Jungkook: And this is?
Taehyung pulled you back and put a scarf around your neck without looking at you.
Y/n : What is this?
Taehyung: A scarf.
He kept his eyes on the phone. You frowned.
Taehyung: What happened?
Y/n : Hm?
Taehyung: No one else is asking anything, it suggests they know. So I just asked.
Y/n : It is my mother's death anniversary. We visited her before coming here, so we were late.
Taehyung: Oh.. Are you-
Yoongi : We're going in!~
Y/n : Yes. I'm fine let's go.
You smiled at him, held his hand and pulled him inside with you. He blushed.
Y/a : Let's start from the artifacts section.
Namjoon: Yes! I heard they have some new ones.
Y/a : I haven't been here in a long time really.
Jimin : Okk then. I'm excited.
All of you went to the designated section. It was really spacious, and not crowded since it was a weekday. You looked up and around the vast place, where various traditional and contemporary art was kept and hanged. Namjoon and Yoongi were lost in taking pictures while aunt told what each thing was and explained. It was oddly peaceful to look at them. The group moved to the next section, and the next. It was indulging in a good way. That seemingly boring place for some was not so when you are with people who understand it.
Jungkook: I like this one.. it's so my style.
Y/a : That one is actually a depiction of nature, moreover the feel of into abstract art. So, it's neither real life nor abstract yet both.
Taehyung: It has been here for a few years. I remember always looking this for like 15 minutes when it was first placed here.
He smiled widely. You smiled at him, but he looked the other way. Unfortunately there was a wall that way, so his act was too obvious. You waited for everyone to leave then you pulled him back.
Y/n : Taehyung.
He didn't look at you.
Y/n : Kim Taehyung!
Taehyung: Oh hey. What happened?
You huffed and calmed yourself before speaking.
Y/n : Why are you avoiding me?
Taehyung: I am? Woah, I guess I was so lost in-
He looked away again, you cut in.
Y/n : Are you embarrassed?
Taehyung: Of what?
He stepped back, preparing to run out of the narrow hall. But you grabbed his hood.
Y/n : Of our date?
Taehyung: Why would I be?!
He looked down shyly and struggled to get out of your grip. "What's wrong with him?" You pulled him hard so that he was standing straight facing you.
Taehyung: I loved it. Really. Even though it was my first date, the fact that it was with you made it a hundred times better. But I'm just..
Y/n : You're what?
You asked sternly, trying not to smile at his cute behaviour.
Taehyung: I'm a bit shy.. I don't know what happens to me when I see you, I don't know how to act.
You failed to hold back the laughter in you and burst out.
Taehyung: Yah! Don't laugh. Y/n.
You held your stomach. He hit you on the arm but you couldn't stop and put a hand on his shoulder for support. He suddenly pushed you to the wall and put his hand on either side of you. Your hand was still on his shoulder and your eyes were wide. He leaned in slowly and whispered in your ear.
Taehyung: Don't make me shut you up like this babe.
Y/n : I-
He brushed his nose on top of your ear. It sent a current through you. Your breath hitched. He swiftly let go of you and stepped away. He adjusted the painting beside you.
Yoongi : Hey! You coming?
Taehyung: Yup.
He went to him while you were still standing still as a statue with your back to the wall.
Yoongi : Y/n?
Y/n : Huh? Yeah, c-coming.
You detached yourself from the wall. They both left before Taehyung sent you a quick glance with a slight smirk. You got back to your senses and rushed outside to meet the rest. Everyone was having a drink, so you picked up and chugged on a glass of orange juice to soothe your dried throat. Your heart beat calmed a bit.
Y/a : What do you guys think? Should we go and have lunch?
Jin : I think it'll be a while till lunch time.
Yoongi : You're going to loose weight at this rate.
Jungkook: Then who will cook for us??
Y/n : Don't be dramatic.
Y/a : Y/n. Stop. You're embarrassing me.
Y/n : Aunt!!
Hoseok: He is right though. We need to make sure he eats well.
Jin : What do y'all want huh?? Namjoon would burn down the kitchen except him and Jimin, Jiminie's clumsy and can't even reach the shelves rest of y'all can cook.
Everyone laughed at his rap and Jimin's expression.
Jimin : Why so rude? I can reach the shelves ok? Yoongi hyung is just a bit taller than me.
Yoongi : Lies.
He stood beside him.
Jimin : See?
Jungkook: Oh wait, I can't see Jimin-ssi.
Jimin put his hands on his waist and stood on his tip-toes.
Jungkook: Oh there you are! Nope. Yoongi hyung is definitely a lot taller.
You fell out of the conversation when you saw someone approaching Taehyung. He looked a bit roughed up and a little older than you. Which is what caught your attention.
??? : So you're back! Alone again?
The rest didn't take any notice of this random guy.
Jin : Are you hungry?
Taehyung: Nope.
??? : Wah really? I thought you would still be with that bunch you were so dearly allotted in. But you still do live in that same place. From your past records, I supposed you would have run away again.
"Run away? What is he talking about?" Taehyung gave him a blank look and went on with his conversation with Jisoo.
??? : How dare you??! You sinner!!
Taehyung pulled him aside harshly. The rest didn't notice this either. You paid close attention when Jisoo rushed to the scene and held his arm tight. Fear took over when you realised that he was breathing unsteadily. He looks scary as hell when he's mad.
Taehyung: Are You calling me a sinner?
You shivered at his tone.
??? : Y-Yes. I did! And you know what you are.
Jisoo : Taehyung.
He clenched his jaw. Jisoo grabbed the glass from his hand.
Jisso : Leave.
??? : Why? Does truth hurt?
Jisoo : I said leave.
He let out a cackle and snickered at Taehyung's face before hurrying away like an afraid mouse. Taehyung shook off Jisoo's hand and left. You got up. Jisoo made a call in hurry.
Jisoo : Have you made it?
You listened closely, though you couldn't quite focus as Taehyung kept flashing in your head. She whisper-yelled.
Jisoo : Oh my god how many times do I have to remind you?? He really needs a place to vent when he's mad! It's not safe for him!
Your eyes widened. She handed the glass to you who was behind her and ran out. You glanced once at that bastard. The investigation can go fry shrimp. You felt horrible and guilty about how you even think of having such intentions for him. You looked at the glass in hand, it was cracked. "Holy shit. Is he ok??! But Jisoo has gone with him."
You looked behind , no one realised what had happened. You went to aunt.
Y/n : Aunt I'm not hungry. I'll head back first. Now.
Y/a: Ok honey.
You rushed out.
Yoongi : Why is it always that Taehyung storms out and y/n goes behind him?
Hoseok: Did you say something?
Yoongi : No.
He sighed.
Yoongi : I hope that isn't the case forever.
Yoongi said to himself.
.
You stood infront of his house and bit your lip. "Should I really go in?" You recalled what Jisoo had said and Taehyung's face kept flashing in your head. Your heart ached. " I must." You went in, and immediately flinched at the loud sound of something hitting the floor. You looked up and ran upstairs.
Jisoo : Taehyung..
She was standing infront of his room. You stopped dead in your tracks when you heard something shatter. You shivered , but then you ran towards the room. Your arm was held and pulled you back by Jisoo.
Jisoo : Y/n don't-
*Thud*
You rushed in , struggling out of her grip. You flinched and shrieked in horror when something came flying your way and hit the wall. You heard another bang and heavy breathing. You slowly opened your eyes, and they locked with Taehyung's. He was drenched in sweat, and his eyes looked mad. But they soon turned empty.
Taehyung: Go away.
He spoke coldly while stepping back a few. Jisoo came in behind you.
Taehyung: I SAID GO AWAY!!
His hands fell on an alarm clock on the side table behind his back and he threw it across the room. You froze in your spot. He kept his eyes on you.
Taehyung: Don't come near me!!
Y/n : Taehyung..
He took a few more steps back.
Y/n : Taehyung.. Tae.
He fell to the ground in a slump. You walked over to him carefully through the mess. His room was more filled and happy than the last time you saw it. There were flowers , bright drawings and chocolates. It calmed you a bit, even though they were all in a mess on the floor. You sat beside him yet a bit away from him.
Jisoo : I'll be back.
She carefully watched you both, then left. You just sat there, waiting for him to gather himself. Jisoo returned with a first aid kit. She handed it to you and smiled weakly.
Jisoo : I'll be outside.
She left leaving you two in the room. You took his hands in yours and checked. "Oh Tae.."
Y/n : Are you hurt?
You took his bleeding hand and started to clean it.
Y/n : Just a bit.
He kept staring at you as you applied an ointment on it and wrapped a bandage around it. You avoided his eyes and applied some of it on his forehead. He hissed in pain. Then you shifted back pressing your lips together in a smile.
Taehyung: Y/n..
You looked at him. "Has the time come? Is now the time Taehyung?"
He took a deep breath.
Taehyung : I'm a..
