Bora woke up around 1 am. She was unable to open her eyes because they seemed heavy and sticky since she had cried way too much for her liking.

She sat up straight, groaning a little as one side of her body ached because of sleeping on the floor in the same position for a couple of hours. She opened her eyes with a little difficulty and stood up on her feet. She grabbed her phone from the table and walked to her bedroom.

She let out a sigh of relief when her body experienced the warmth and softness of her bed. She continued to feel the warmth till Taehyung's face came in front of her closed eyes for a second which made her open her eyes widely as if she had seen a nightmare.

She unlocked her phone and opened the messaging app after deciding to message him. She knew there was no point in ignoring him especially when she would have to go and work at Hybe regularly after waking up in the next few hours.

Taehyung-shi 💜

Bora:

I apologize for bothering you so late. I went through our chats and I feel ashamed to have blamed you all this time.

Bora:

I shouldn't have behaved so immaturely without thinking wisely

Bora:

I'm sorry, Taehyung-shi! Please forgive me

Bora:

There was a reason for behaving like this which you might not be aware of.

Bora:

My past was a bit rough. My mom and I were lied by my father, who was betraying my mother. I had always seen her crying. So I concluded that I wouldn't associate with people who lie or betray me.

Bora:

That's all in the past and I don't think remembering all that matters anymore. But it had been affecting me. It still is affecting me.

Bora:

But I'll take this experience as a teaching and will try to let go of my past.

Bora:

I acted immaturely and I genuinely apologize for making you feel guilty which you shouldn't have. If anyone, it should be me.

Bora:

Can we start afresh? Only if you want to. If not, I won't bother you. If you can, forgive me! 🙇🏻‍♀️

Bora's heart ached while writing Taehyung-shi and not Oldie. She was used to calling him by that name and she couldn't even believe where their life had brought them all of a sudden for her to call him formally as if they didn't really confess in the past. But she knew it was all because of her irrational behavior and her peanut-sized useless brain.  

She felt a little better after sending those messages though. She knew she shouldn't be forgiven so soon, but she also wished to be forgiven by Taehyung. As he said, everyone deserves a second chance, like Taehyung's character in her book. How ironic, the lesson she tried to convey through her book was now becoming a reality of her real-life story. She would surely beg for a second chance like Taehyung always did in her book.

It wasn't like Taehyung did it in real, but she wrote her book like that, making him beg for a second chance. And now, she was ready to beg for a second chance from the most special person in her life. 

Bora might be a writer, but the writer of her story wasn't her. All she could do was, be the best of her and she might as well get the person back in her life at least as a friend, if not as a lover.

Whatever he decides to do, she was ready. If he decides to reject her proposal of starting everything afresh, she would act professionally at work, forgetting anything or everything they've ever had.

She sighed and locked her phone after putting on an alarm and drifting off to sleep.

When I wrote, "Bora might be a writer, but the writer of her story wasn't her." I had the urge to write that of course it's me who is the writer of her story but I refrained. I didn't want to show my childish side especially when Bora was feeling upset. 

I apologize for giving you new chapters after almost 4 days. I'll try to finish this book soon. Please hang on with me. Love you all, my cupcakes!
