Captain Jeon 'Since 1894'

PART 131-140💌

“Oh my god, oh my god!” He cried, eyes tightly shut.

Jungkook rode the other horse and watched Tae with a disappointing look. “Sit up straight, nothing will happen if you’ll be scared.”

Tae shook his head. “We’re not the same! You don’t know how much I hate heights.” He said, voice tone almost crying.

Jungkook sighed.

It’s seriously making him crazy. How can a future soldier be fragile like this?

He waited for a few moments so Tae can adjust but all he saw were cries. “Pls, let’s not do this.” He cried.

Jungkook clicked his tongue. “The horse can feel if you’re afraid. It wont hurt you.”

Tae thought for a bit. Maybe nothing will happen if he try again right?

He slowly tried to straighten up on his seat, his grasp were still tight on the harness.

But he realized that he’s finally sitting straight.

He opened his eyes and saw Jungkook smiling. He gasped.

“Oh god, did you just smile?” He asked and Jungkook’s smile immediately faded away.

Tae laughed to himself. Why would he not want anyone to see him smiling? “I’ll pretend I didn’t see that.”

Jungkook coughed and fixed his voice.

“Just gently hit the horse with the rope attached on its harness if you want it to run. Just keep on hitting it if you want it to run faster. If you want to go left or right, just put the pressure on your body onto which side you wanted to go. To stop it, just lean backwards and it’ll halt.”

Tae nodded while listening to his words. He hit the horse with the rope and it started walking.

Tae flinched at the sudden movement, the horse is going on circles and he eventually got used to it.

“Ooo, this is nice.” He said while slowly trying to control the horse.

Jungkook let Tae adjust first. After some minutes, he decided to speak.

“Should we go for a stroll?” He asked and Tae immediately nodded with a big smile on his face. He’s so proud of himself because he can finally run a horse.

The went out of the camp, out to the city that they’re in. The sun is already setting down, and it’s really visible since there are just trees and there’s no huge buildings yet.

Tae smiled to himself. He never knew its this relaxing to take a stroll without seeing any smoke coming out from the factories.

The rivers are clean, the streets are full of plants and people who we’re sharing foods, talking and children playing.

Its just too endearing to see this scenery, because in the future — all of these are gone.

The horse suddenly groaned and lifted himself up. A pebble hit its eye because of the children that we’re playing with the stones.

“AAA!” Tae almost fell off but good thing he’s holding onto the harness.

The horse suddenly ran faster — well faster than Tae could take.

He was crouching back down again while screaming. Tears we’re falling down his cheeks because of fear.

He can’t halt it. The amount of speed was too much for him to handle.

On the other hand, Captain was following him with the same amount of speed. The people were looking at them and went on the side to give them a way.
