"So, your ex-boyfriend cheated on you?" He asks as he cuts MY PIE!! and brings it to his mouth.

I then steal a piece from his Tiramisu. "Uh-huh." i reply dryly. "Why? Do I look pitiful?"

He shrugs. "A little."

I glare at him. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"It's just a pity because of that one terrible man you threw your love life into a dumpster." He swallows and grabs his tea. "Not all men like that."

"Yeah, right. You are a man, of course, you will stand up for them." I snort. "Give me some examples, then."

"Me."

I laugh aloud. "Dude, you asked a woman you've just met to sleep with you. It is kinda trashy."

"Well, in my defense, it's called Moo Moo." He pouts. "I am just trying to be a nice guy and help you out!"

I nod in agreement. "Right. And remind me once again, what does MooMoo mean and why you and hani keep on saying MooMoo?"

He sighs. "You know.." He trails his eyes to the windows, i can see a hint of blush on his cheeks. "It's just... I thought we could help each other, you know. My friend also said that I need it too."

Suddenly the door opened and his eyes widened. i look at him in confusion and turn my head to look at the couple who just entered the diner. The man is handsome with a tall figure. His hair combed neatly. The man smiles sweetly to the woman beside him, and I can see the dimple poking into his cheek. The woman is beautiful. She wears a work suit and heels, and you can feel the intimidating aura coming from her. They look at the menu and talk to the waiter. The woman suddenly turns her head and looks at my direction and smiles. She then drags the man to walk with her.

"Tae!" She yells happily as she walks to our table. "Oh hello!" She looks at me kindly. You smile and nod politely.

"Hi! Why are you two so late?" Taehyung asks. "Did Namjoon lose his keys again?"

Namjoon puts his hands on his hips. "That is unnecessary information! I was in the practice room, that's why."

The girl snorts. "Yeah, as you lost your key and locked yourself in." The waiter then calls them to tell them that their food is ready. "Alright, we are going to go home now. Enjoy your night!" She then walks to the cashier to pick their food, and waves to you and Taehyung.

"Your colleague, I assume?" I ask while stirring my tea. But when i don't get an answer, i raised my head. Taehyung looks out the window in the direction of the departing couple. i look at the way the man put his arm on her waist, it looks like they're in love. I study Taehyung's face, he is emotionless. He looks like he is just staring at the road, but his eyes show sadness. "Taehyung?"

He jerks his head to you. "Ah yeah, I am sorry I spaced out." He gives you a half-smile. "Let me walk you home." He then asks the waiter for the bill. We both arguing about the bill for 10 mins, but he ended up paying anyways.

The walk to your apartment has never felt this long. No more random conversations between you two. Taehyung has been silent since he saw the couple. Just with one look at him, when he saw her, i know that he likes her. I know that he is hurt. I know that he hides it with his laughter and smile. I know that he loses his composure when he sees her. I just know how he is feeling.

I stop in front of my apartment. "This is my apartment. Thank you for dinner and taking me home." I smile at him.

"No problem. Thank you too." He waves and turns around, walking away from you.

I can see his broad back. He looks tough, but he looks in pain.

I know because i was in the same position as him.

You've brokenhearted too.

But, I had Hani and my family. And Taehyung? He does have his friends, but why do you feel that he is lonely?.
