CHAPTER - I ~ UNSPOKEN GRAVITY

🎧: "Play With Fire" - Sam Tinnesz ft. Yacht Money

🌈AUTHOR's POV:

"Oh my God! He's so handsome."
"I could stare at him all day."
"He's so easy on the eyes."
"Plain stunning."

Compliments filled the air as the school's cold, yet the most handsome student walked down the hallway. Every glance, every whisper was the same. Girls swooned, guys envied, but Kim Taehyung barely noticed. Attention was fleeting, shallow. He had learned that long ago. No one truly knew him, and that was exactly how he wanted it.

He was difficult to approach. So aloof. So, withdrawn. His body language conveyed his message loud and clear, but people were either too ignorant or too stubborn to listen.

"He won't be able to resist me today. Just wait and watch. How long can he act indifferent? Today he'll surrender. Kim Taehyung, I'm coming for you." Jihoo, the school's queen bee, declared with a self-satisfied smirk.

Jihoo knew how to command attention. Her charisma was undeniable, and she thrived on the admiration that followed her. But beneath her confidence lay frustration-no matter how many times she tried, Taehyung remained indifferent. Unreachable. And Jihoo hated losing.

Her heels clicked against the marble floor as she strutted toward him, flipping her hair.

"Would you like to go to the movies with me?" Her voice was honeyed, a tone that usually got her what she wanted.

Without so much as a glance, Taehyung brushed past her, his long strides carrying him away effortlessly.

"Jihoo, that's the fifteenth rejection this month," Jimin teased. "And it's only been fifteen days."

It was an everyday routine-Jihoo throwing herself at him, Taehyung ignoring her, and her ending up embarrassed. He was the same with everyone. For ten years, he had refused to let anyone in. An incident from his past had shaped him into who he was today.

That was, until she entered his life.

"Some people speak with words. Others speak with silence. He was the latter, and she was about to learn that silence can be louder than anything else."

The classroom buzzed with its usual chaos-chairs scraping against the floor, students laughing, papers rustling. It was the same mundane routine, except for one thing.

A new student.

Y/N kept her head low, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear as she walked toward the teacher's desk.

"Ah, Y/N," Ms. Sooha said warmly. "Welcome. You'll be sitting beside-"

The door swung open.

A hush fell over the room.

Heavy footsteps echoed against the floor as he walked in-Kim Taehyung.

His presence demanded attention without a word. Tall, sharp-jawed, effortlessly cool, his dark eyes swept across the room, uninterested, detached. It was as if nothing around him was worth his time.
