7. Nothing but a Stranger

Start from the beginning
                                    

Jihyo, Hoseok and Yoongi soon follow behind saying that they will talk later.

"Well that was... rude... " Jimin mumbles silently with a small pout. "But don't worry TaeTae I am here right? Actually Jeongguk takes some time to warm up with new people. So let's wait till he warms up with you. " Jimin again says with his usual cheerful tone making Taehyung smile a little.

"Ok Jiminie. I-I also gotta go now. I will meet you tomorrow" Taehyung says as he hugs Jimin.

"Okkie Tae. Byee. See you! " Jimin replies.

And so they part ways after leaving the parking lot.

The moon shines brightly in the sky as Jeongguk looks at the photograph in his hands. He was currently sitting on a park bench in an empty park. Wind was blowing gently as his hair also moved along with it.

He can hear some distant sound of a song playing from a nearby convenience store and that surely did not help his situation at all.

(Still with you- by Jungkook of BTS)
날 스치는 그대의 옅은 그 목소리
nal seuchineun geudaeui yeot-eun geu mogsoli
내 이름을 한 번만 더 불러주세요
nae ileum-eul han beonman deo bulleojuseyo
얼어버린 노을 아래 멈춰 서있지만
eol-eobeolin no-eul alae meomchwo seoissjiman
그대 향해 한 걸음씩 걸어갈래요
geudae hyanghae han geol-eumssig geol-eogallaeyo
Still with you

The song reminds him of Taehyung even more. He knows he acted a little rude today. But he couldn't just forget everything and forgive Taehyung after all these years he suffered.

He gave his everything to Taehyung, but he just...left him. And now he's back in Jeongguk's life.... And they probably will see each other everyday.

Jeongguk sighs as he looks at the lonely moon in the sky. He doesn't know how he should act around Taehyung now.

His brain tells him to be angry towards him but his heart tells him to just go and engulf his Tae in his arms once again.

저 달이 외로워 보여서
jeo dal-i oelowo boyeoseo
밤하늘에 환하게 울고 있는 것 같아서
bamhaneul-e hwanhage ulgo issneun geos gat-aseo
언젠가 아침이 오는 걸 알면서도
eonjenga achim-i oneun geol almyeonseodo
별처럼 너의 하늘에 머물고 싶었어 (ahh)
byeolcheoleom neoui haneul-e meomulgo sip-eoss-eo (ahh)
하루를, 그 순간을
haluleul, geu sungan-eul
이렇게 될 걸 알았다면
ileohge doel geol al-assdamyeon
더 담아뒀을 텐데
deo dam-adwoss-eul tende
언제쯤일까 다시 그댈 마주한다면
eonjejjeum-ilkka dasi geudael majuhandamyeon
눈을 보고 말할래요
nun-eul bogo malhallaeyo
"보고 싶었어요"
"bogo sip-eoss-eoyo"

Of course he missed him. But he listens to his brain just because he needed answers and he will get them from Taehyung. Even if that meant showing him a cold shoulder.

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, hm-mm, hm

"Gukkie" He remembers how Tae called his name. That nickname held so much meaning in Jeongguk's life. That's why he never allowed anyone to call him with that name after Tae left well except for Taehyung himself.

Oh, oh, oh
Oh-hah, ah, hah, hah
날 바라보는 희미한 미소 뒤편에
nal balaboneun huimihan miso dwipyeon-e
아름다운 보랏빛을 그려볼래요
aleumdaun bolasbich-eul geulyeobollaeyo
서로 발걸음이 안 맞을 수도 있지만
seolo balgeol-eum-i an maj-eul sudo issjiman
그대와 함께 이 길을 걷고 싶어요
geudaewa hamkke i gil-eul geodgo sip-eoyo
Still with you

Is he also thinking about me like I am thinking about him...
All his thoughts get interrupted by the ring of his call. He sees the caller ID and picks up the call.

"Yes? Namjoon Hyung?"

"Jeongguk. Good news. I talked to a lady today. She is willing to rent her apartment near the university. You can go and meet her tomorrow if you want."

1204 words... I guess the first long chapter... 😅
Btw as mentioned Jeongguk loved Taehyung a lot when they were together and Taehyung also loved him...
So what do you think might be the reason Taehyung left him? 👀
