16- The Great Council's Invitation

Sitting on the branch all by myself is a little boring here. Oh wait, there is a piece of pizza hanging nearby. I'm going to get a slice.

As the messenger named Jeon Ryeong, which means messenger too in Korean shows up, Taehyung's face turns solemn immediately. I wonder why.

Taking the first bite on my pizza, I sit back down on the branch which Taehyung has chosen for me. The distance keeps me from listening what they're talking about and this is a little frustrating indeed. Nevertheless, I manage to behave and sit quietly with my eyes locking on the two of them.

Suddenly, the messenger gazes at me and an uncomfortable feeling strikes across me like lightning in a meantime. Why is he looking at me like that? And why Taehyung doesn't aware of this?

I can feel that his expressions are blunt but sure enough, there are hidden messages like 'I've known you ten years ago and now we meet again', or 'You should meet my boss, he's kind' are been told from his eyes. Is that possible? Or am I imagining a scene from a movie again? Well, what happens now is actually a scene from a movie, maybe those assumptions of mine are true. Gazing back in return with my talking eyes, I try to search for the clues.

However, the messenger looks away, blinking. He faces Taehyung who is meditating for some reason and pulls him back from his reverie by talking. Soon, he hands Taehyung a piece of letter and withdraws himself away, leaving us alone.

Taehyung unfolds his big wings and flies towards me. He then perches beside me carefully to avoid any unwanted accidents happening.

"What's the good news?" I ask with a smile. Seeing him laughs idiotically, it must be good news for sure.

"Guesshit." says Taehyung who tries to hide the letter behind his back. He raises his chin as his eyes show challenging expression but softer than when he faces his enemies.

"Hmm..." I hum in a challenging tone too, as if I guarantee can guess this right. Looking at him which is still horselaughing by the side, I giggle and guess. "You've got an invitation?"

"Yesh. And who do you think it ish?" asks Taehyung again and this question is a little hard to answer. Seeing him so happy like this, I bet it is someone he cherishes the most, or someone important to him.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Oh I hope it's not a girl as I worry that she will jealous upon the relationship between Taehyung and me. Well, I still can't figure out what exactly our relationships are. But some girls are usually sensitive if their crushes belong to anyone else instead of them.

"Boy." says Taehyung with a wink. "You know who he is." This clue is useless but thanks anyway Taetae.

I brace my chin and continue thinking. Occasionally, I may murmur words which help making sense of this. "Boys I know. Boys whom Taetae knows. Oh correction, it's boy, not boys. Boy who makes Taetae laughs like a llama..."

"What did chew shay?"

"Ahh..nothing. Is it an invitation from your best friend or whosoever?" Trying to change the topic, I blurt out my answer unconditionally which is rewarded by a loud clap.

"Yesh, you right!" I gasp in response, not believing what he's saying.

But then, I mumble out the name in order to confirm. "Is that..Bogum-oppa?"
