After eating late dinner...
Our members forced us to take a rest.
But of course...
We didn't sleep in time...
It's late anyway, so why bother sleeping in time?
"So, is that the onlu memory you have retained earlier?"
Devastatedly, I asked.
He nodded while fixing his bed...
While me...sitting on my bed.
"You're not going to sleep beside me...arw you?"
Even though I wanted him beside me...
I shook my head and threw all of the thoughts that probably will hit me and hurt me.
"Well...I don't want to expect."
Yeah...
Don't expect.
It's only the best thing as of now.
Suddenly...
"Do...I sleep beside you every night?"
He asked scrathing his eyes a bit.
So cute.
I nodded in response but I don't want to expect...
"Good night, Tae."
As he looked at me, I smiled and turned my back and lied on my bed.
I was kying sideways, facing the wall, avoiding his direction.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath but as I did....
"You're so warm."
A husky mature voice spoke behind me. And a hand that traveled from my wasut to my tummy.
My eyes went wide...
Shocked filled inside me...
Yet...as I composed myself...
I can feel my heart rising its beat.
"My head is aching, Jendeukie."
He leaned his head to my back but I got worried.
"Just relax."
I immediately faced him and cupped his face.
His eyes are teary yet closed.
I looked at him...
And as seconds have passed...
He started clenching his fist behind my back. His hug is tightening also.
"Agrr."
He groaned and he crouched, still, he's not releasing his hug.
"Tae."
I called, trying to push him so I could massage his head.
But he kept leaning on my neck.
"Mmrr."
He groaned once again.
"Listen to me. Just let it. Don't..."
I know what's happening to him.
I have experienced these things, right? So I can help him. But as I spoke...he cutted me by saying...
"I almost cheated on you..."
Shock filled me once again.
"But you still gave me a chance and that's the time....agrr."
He groaned even more.
"Don't force yourself."
I sat up and hugged him as he lied on my lap.
"The vows...the vows on the hill...I can remember every word."
After that, he stopped clenching his fist, but he's catching his breath.
I huged him as he sat up and reached for me.
"That's fine. That's fine. Take some rest."
I stroked his back and hugged him tight.
"I'm relieved that you are able to remember some things...but seeing you like that...experiencing the pain I have experienced...it's hard."
He lied himself on my chest...his body above me, hugging me.
He's heavy...but I'm fine, as long as...he's with me.
I leaned my back to the pillow behind me.
I took a deep breath and stroke the hair on the back of his neck.
"It's better...
Than the fact that you are able to remember only Irene...I thought you wouldn't remember..."
I closed my eyes...
As I felt him sleeping on my chest already.
"Let's sleep.
Good night, Tae.
I love you."

"Jendeukie."
I felt two hands cupping my face.
I furrowed my brows and squinted my eyes.
The person is playing with my cheeks.
"Fluffy..."
Taehyung kept on rolling his fingers on my cheeks.
"Tae."
I groaned and closed my eyes again.
"I'm able to remember one thing again. What happened last night. You're...tired and...I've been a bit of hard that night. I should say sorry."
He teased still playing with my cheeks.
But in shock, I jumped and sat up.
I looked at him...
Inside my thoughts, I'm honestly saying...
"You have lost some of your memories with me but I can't believe that you're going to remember that specific as of now."
"You're so cute."
And he cupped my face again and pecked a kiss on my forehead.
"Let's go. I want to bring you to the amusement park. The members are coming too."
I closed my eyes and relaxed myself, I'm still drunk with sleepiness.
But then, I stood up and went to the bathroom to get ready. After taking a bath, I dressed myself with something casual.
We all went to the amusement park.
We rode everything, also those hardcore rides.
"Are still not tired, Lisa?"
Jungkook made a sour face but Lisa shook her head.
We rode the rides until afternoon.
It's getting dark yet they still want to eat cotton candy and ice cream.
"Eonnie, are we going to go with Lisa tomorrow? She's going to dye her hair. Also, Jisoo-eonnie, you're going to have a new hairstyle, right?"
Randomly, Chaeyoung asked me and Jisoo.
Jisoo looked at me nodded.
So, I nodded as well.
Lisa came back with Jungkook, they are both eating cotton candy.
Jin brought sodas for him and Jisoo.
Jimin came and approached Chaeyoung with Tiramisu flavored frappe.
And Taehyung walked towards me looking at the ice cream he bought. Milk flavored ice cream.
He handed it to me...
"Thank you."
I thanked.
And we all sat on the bench next to us.
As we are eating...
"I don't know if this is a memory I lost but...we went here, all together as well. And everyone keeps on saying that we are a perfect couple."
I tilted my head to face Taehyung and looked at him.
"That's true. I can remember."
Jisoo answered and the other boys nodded.
I finished my ice cream and nodded as well.
"But...why is that my head didn't ache? Is that normal?"
He asked, looking at me.
"That happens...sometimes."
I answered wiping my hands with alcohol.
Then, silence filled us for half of the minute until...
"Oh, you guys are here."
Red Velvet came...as always.
"Oh."
Taehyung immediately stood uo and bowed at the five girls.
His members followed but bowed with awkwardness. I saw Jin and Jimin looked at me, Jungkook cleard his throat. My mebers left sitting, as well as me.
"Have you rode rides?"
Seulgi asked smiling at everyone, especially to Jimin.
"Yes, of course. Isn't that the purpose of amusment parks?"
Chaeyoung let out a sarcastic answer and all I can do was to chuckle behind Taehyung's shoulder.
"Ahh, maja. But you guys, do you have some time? We are about to go out and gonna eat."
Irene invited.
But when we are all about to disagree, Taehyung...
"Yes, we are free."
Jealousy hit me hard this time but I managed to calm down my thoughts.
"Hyung..."
Jungkook was about to tell Taehyung that we shouldn't but...I budged in saying...
"Shall we go now?"
I don't know but...maybe, I just want to hurt myself.
We went to a small restaurant.
It is not thay famous but their Ramen here is good, that's what Irene told us earlier while we are taking the path going here.
We ordered Ramens...
It was served after twenty minutes.
All of us ate...
The girls from the other group keep on talking and asking things...
It is rare thag my members will speak and answer, most of the time, the boys are the ones to answer.
"Aish, this meat is so big."
Irene complimented the meat on her soup, she tried cutting it but...
"Let me do that."
My eyes landed on Taehyung who's trying to help Irene.
This hurts...
But what can I do?
He has that amnesia...
In my rear view, I saw everyone looking at me...worried.
I looked at them, especifically, Jisoo.
Then, I gave them a look saying 'it's fine'...though, it's not.
After that dinner...
We all went outside and bid the other grouo good bye. Good bye.
And we all took the way going back to our dorm. As usual, we walked.
Chaeyoung and Jimin began sweeter. Jimin carried Chaeyoung by piggy back ride.
Jungkook and Lisa started teasing each other, but ended up with Lisa clinging into Jungkooks arm and they walked happily.
Jin and Jisoo just kept quiet but I can see Jin giving glances to Jisoo but Jisoo's ignoring him.
"Will you ignore me the whole night?"
Jin asked, I heard, they are just infront of us.
"No, I'm not ignoring you."
Jisoo frowned and answered.
"Then why are you quiet?"
Jin asked, with a bit of exclaiming.
"What should I be? Should I be loud? You're the one who's not talking to me last night."
A chuckled.escapes my lips as I heard Jisoo.
"These guys...they aren't saying it but everything is evident."
"You guys better be a couple."
Taehyung spoke and suggested.
Jisoo glared at him and Jin just patted his chest.
After that, Jin pulled Jisoo by hand and ran.
Jin was so happy teasing my eonnie, while Jisoo just kept on groaning and making Jinstop but they end up...
Jin interlocked his fingers with Jisoo's hand.
"Sweet, aren't they?"
Taehyung asked, I didn't looked at him and just nodded.
I don't want to get hurt but...thoughts entered my mind again.
"We are the sweetest...if you could just remember everything."
Painful truth.
"We are going to the salon tomorrow. I don't know if you guys will come but we are just going to dye our hair and Jisoo will have a new hair cut."
I informed, my eyes are glued to those who are sweetly walking with their man infront of us.
"I'll come with you."
I heard him.
My heart flattered.
And I looked at him...
"Sure?"
I asked.
He didn't respond and just smiled at me.
His hand held mine and that made me feel happy, at least.
"Everytime you're going to be sweet...
The pain eases."
