"I knew it! Actually... I'm his brother-in-law"
I gasped.
"W-what?"
He smiled and nodded.
"His sister, actually step sister is married to me, so yeah I basically knew him a bit well"
"Step sister?"
"Hmm, his mom left him and that's how his father got married to a lady for the sake of Taehyung, and she already had a girl so yeah.."
I nodded in understanding. I couldn't help but ask.
"How did he get this disorder?"
"As much as I know, maybe because none of his step sister or step mom treated him well? I just don't know the main reason but it must be something complicated. That's why he was excluded away from the family and his grandparents bought him a house but unfortunately they too left him"
I nodded.
"All I could do is wish you good luck? Hope you... can change him. And I really want someone to care for him... you know what I mean?"
I nodded.
"If you wouldn't have tell me I would have still helped him!"
I answered sassily. He shook his head smiling.
"Fell in love already?" he smirked.
I gasped a bit.
"w-what? I don't know what are you saying? I m-must go... bye"
I left and I could actually feel my cheeks heating up.
'I don't love him, right? Maybe I like him, I guess?' I smacked myself but blushed harder.
I was walking through streets as the thoughts of him kept repeating my mind. He really would have a dreadful past so he is diagnosed with it.
With those thoughts I reached my apartment.
Next Day
It was lunch time already. Y/n and Taehyung didn't have a talk since then, nor they glanced at each other.
Y/n wanted to but didn't dare. What if he wasn't him? What if he again starts insulting her? She was scared.
She was sitting alone as Lily was sick and had no friends rather than her. She was eating when she felt presence beside her.
She slowly looked and choked on her food when she found the same person that she'd been thinking about from night.
Y/n POV
"W-what are y-you doing h-here?"
I couldn't manage but stuttered out as I was so scared. I backed away a bit, fear visible in my eyes.
He frowned and looked down sadly.
"D-did I hurt you too? Now you won'tbe my bestfriend a-anymore?"
His voice was soft. Oh, so it's him... Kimchi?
"u-um.. i-is it you?"
He looked up and smiled slightly.
"Yes berry.."
I blushed slightly.
Kimchi: "D-do y-you probably don't want to be my friend no more?"
I frowned and quickly scooted a bit closer to him.
"Who said that, hm? We are bestfriends and I would never cut off with my bestfriend!"
He suddenly smiled cheekily, hugging me.
I was startled a bit but I knew he has a clingy personality.
I giggled, he pulled out.
Kimchi: "Thank you so much, berry!! I love you! So much!"
I looked at him shocked, he was smiling widely. I smiled back too, ignoring thousands of butterflies that erupted in my stomach.
"Wanna have some? I guess you haven't ate anything, right?"
He shook his head as I shared my meal with him. He started eating with an adorable pout on his lips. I looked at him fondly as he fed me some too.
Kimchi: "berry...? Have you talked to my o-other alters?"
I sighed sadly.
"u-um y-yes... one named as v-vante.."
He gasped a bit.
"w-when?"
He asked hesitantly.
"Y-yesterday, when you slept in the library"
I answered with an awkward smile.
"W-what h-he did?"
His voice was laced with worries and concern. I smiled a bit.
"h-he just yelled at me a-and.."
My voice was trembling a bit as I remembered his words.
"Berry..? What h-happen?"
I snapped out.
"C'mon! Our class is gonna start!"
"please don't change the topic, berry!"
I gulped.
"He just c-called me a b-tch and gold digger.. and told me to stay away f-from every one of you.."
His eyes turned teary, I gasped and held his hands.
"hey that's absolutely okay?! It wasn't you, it was him! So c'mon don't be sad. I'm okay and I can understand!"
I assured him, he sobbed and hugged me tightly.
"I-I am sorry... it's all my f-fault.. if I won't have been friends with you... t-then"
I patted his back.
"It's not your fault nor its Vante's! He doesn't trust me and wants to protect Taehyung so it's fine, hm? Don't feel bad about it! And hey, I want to be friends with you okay!"
He pulled and sniffed.
"R-really?"
I chuckled and nodded wiping his tiny tears.
He blushed.
"soo let's go to class now?"
I asked softly, he nodded.
"but s-sit with me okay?"
He asked pouting, I smiled and nodded.
He box-smiled and dragged to the class.
We sat on the middle bench, everyone gave me worried and shocked looks. I glanced at 'Kimchi' he tried to avoid the looks he was getting.
I sighed and nudged him a bit he looked at me frowning.
"Let's go to the last one!"
He suddenly smiled and nodded.
We both settled on the last bench but the looks I was getting didn't stop yet. It was like they're worried. I shrugged and tried distracting Kimchi too.
The professor entered and he too looked at me worriedly.
The lecture started and suddenly, the figure beside me was awfully silent. I gulped. Did he change?
I glanced at him sneakily and he seemed to be looking at the textbook.
"U-um.. T-taehyung..?"
It should be him, right?
"Miss Y/n!! Concentrate!!"
The professor yelled and I flinched quickly looking at the board as I stood up and bowed as an apology.
I sighed.
Me being me, I glanced again at him but he was the same.
How could I be friends with him when he don't even look around.
I took a deep breath.
"Hey?! Taehyung?!"
I whispered-yelled, he glanced at me and that was enough to keep my mouth shut.
His hazel brown eyes, which held nothing but beauty.
He quickly looked away.
I kept hand on my chest and found my heart beating. Oh my god! What impact he has on me?! His every personality hits me really differently.
I took some deep breaths and again looked at him.
"uh... I'm y/n... hi.. a-actually I met your o-other personalities.."
He looked at me quickly, I flinched a bit.
He was shocked and worried.
"w-what?"
wow his voice was so.... I shooed my thoughts away as I answered.
"u-um yes... I-I met them.. and-"
"Y-you know e-everything about m-me?"
His stutters were enough to make me understand how scared, worried and distressed he was!
"T-taehyung... don't panic, I only m-met them I don't know anything about y-you.."
"Y-you'll send me t-to an asylum too, right?"
It clenched my heart, he looked so vulnerable and scared. He was breathing heavily.
"N-no, Taehyung... n-never will I ever do that! Please trust me... I would never do that Taehyungie..."
He looked at me with glossy eyes. I smiled assuring.
"You can trust me... Now c'mon take deep breaths with me..."
He looked at me for a while without saying anything.
And breathed anyway. I smiled widely.
He smiled slightly and my heart fluttered again.
"T-thank you..." he mumbled.
I smiled warmly and stuck out my hand. He looked at me questionably.
"Can we be friends?"
He frowned, he was confused, scared.
"H-hey... don't worry we can be friends only if you'll be okay and trust me fully okay?!"
He gulped and looked away without saying anything. I frowned and averted my gaze.
To my surprise the lecture was already over. I sighed rolling my eyes in annoyance as I packed my backpack.
"Are you going to be here?"
"Do you have any problem?"
A cold came in response. Oh shit! Y/n, c'mon run. Why he has to disassociate so quickly? He's rarely in his own self.
I didn't respond and tried to run when he stood in front of me suddenly.
I coughed a bit.
"W-what? M-move aside l-let me go!"
"Why?"
I trembled as he came a bit closer, I backed away when his piercing gaze made me look small.
"B-because I-I wanna go!"
I didn't look up at him because I thought I'll pass out if I did so.
"Why are you always bothering me, huh?"
He coldly asked, yet again.
"I-I am not! I was o-only worried for you.."
"why are you worried? Because I am handsome? Or I have money?"
He spoke. I gazed up at him and found him looking blankly at me and standing so close.
It's not the moment to be weak y/n!
"Why do you every time thinking the same a-about me huh?! First that Vante and now you!"
"V" he spoke up.
O-okay... I am not the one like that okay?! I'm not gold digger! Understand Mr. V!"
I spoke angrily looking straight into his eyes. He was shocked.
"And also, I never forced Taehyung or anyone of you to be my friend! I'm giving you the time to trust me, only if you don't know"
He was just looking at me with an unreadable gaze without responding to anything.
"Now why are you quiet huh?! Move aside let me go!!"
"why should I?" he asked in a low voice.
I huffed and climbed on the desk, he looked at me in astonishment, I smirked and started jumping like a monkey on the desks, going past him.
He turned back, I smirked and winked at him.
"Bye.."
I waved and went out proudly even if I was totally scared and half dead from inside.
V, who was standing there looking at y/n until she disappeared, was shocked yet amazed. He smiled a bit but quickly suppressed the smile.
"I shouldn't smile! Why I'm then! She is seriously something!"
He whispered to himself.
Tbc..
