The working day ended, the clock reached 7 pm, autumn evening outside the window, people slowly returned home while the weather allowed it. In the end, Taehyung looked at the bookshelves, passing his long, thin fingers through the books. He liked how the sun shone through the huge stained-glass windows, especially in the evenings, when the sun fell at the golden hour. In addition to the dream of opening his own book store, his list also had the idea of how to master the art of photography. And now it was exactly the time when the most beautiful shots were obtained, all you had to do was turn off all the lights, check whether all windows are closed and finally close the shutters and turn on the alarm. Suddenly, the door swung open and Taehyung spoke without turning around on exhale.
- We have already closed come tomorrow.
Taehyun rather wanted to sort things out and visit the city pier.
- Sorry to bother you, but ...
The pleasant voice of the guy made Tae turn slowly around.
-You forgive me for answering so rudely, - the guy said wearily, adjusting the sliding glasses.
- My name is Kim Seokjin. I am a journalist looking for material for our publication.
With a puzzled look, Taehyung looked at the guy who was also wearing glasses and looked as if he had come off the cover, possibly a consequence of working in a publication, perhaps even popular.
- Hmm, and what interests you?
Tae asked without looking up from the thoughtless folding of things in a bag and showing complete indifference to man. Seokjin noticed this coming closer and laid his hand on the counter. Taehyung had to raise his eyes to the guy who as it turned out was almost the same height with him.
- I don't give interviews even if I wanted to, I would hardly have agreed, I am a little afraid.
Tae was too tired and was a little annoyed by such an insistent guest, despite the fact that he loves the whole world around him but definitely not this guy right now.
- I have to go to, the store closed my work day is over if you have any questions you can take my contacts.
-Just in case, - Having quickly put his hand into the bag, he took out a small piece of paper with numbers and handed it to the guy opposite. Jin was embarrassed by such an incomprehensible change of mood but picked up a piece of paper by accidentally touching his fingers with the palm of a guy that the second made him sharply withdraw his hand. A lot of things were told by the locals, but he only had to find out about the oddities of this guy now.
Kim Taehyung was as strange as it sounded like the property of the town. Everyone knew him as a sweet little boy who grew up here who loved to invent stories and dreamed of opening his own bookstore where he could quietly share his stories with everyone. This was and there is a friendly guy from a well-to-do family, everyone loved him, everyone knew that he could help in difficult situations, and therefore he was in the center of attention and was helped in return precisely with the help of many residents of the town he now happily smiles at every person from behind the counter shop which was located on the central street of the city. All this flashed through Seokjin'shead, andd he could not relate to what he had to meet right now.
- Thank you very much. Can I write to you tonight? - Jin asked, leisurely approaching the exit.
Taehyung had already gone to the exit and gazed the uninvited guest around with a smile on his face, looking at the piece of paper with the numbers neatly printed on it.
-Maybe if I'm not busy and don't be offended at me, I'm just not in a good mood, I'm too tired, - said Taehyung, who was smiling at the guy and then peering at the passing sunset.
-Apparently I won't be busy anymore, - a smile gradually disappeared from his face.
- What is it? - Jin was still amazed at how quickly the mood of the guy is changing.
- Yes, so nothing especially - closing the door, Tae went toward the house, finally saying.
-See you in Kim Seokjin, - with a small smile on his face and waving a pen, Teheon left.
And Jin remained standing still, crushing the unfortunate piece of paper in his hands.
- See you later Kim Taehyung...
