Because I love you
Oing toing hit
Saturday morning.
6:30 AM
"I have some bossam and some kimchi, so you can just take them."
Even if we eat lunch together, the flight arrives at 10:00, so how hungry will you be when you get here? I need to hurry up and get ready and go to Taehyung's house to set everything up so you can eat right when you get here. Koreans are all about food. Oh my... Did I overdo it so early in the morning? I'm tired.
12:00 AM
Ding dong-
"Taehyung! I'm here~"
Clank-
"Hey, you came quickly?"
"Oh, I brought you something for lunch and something for dinner."
"Our lunch too?! "
"Yeah, I just made tteokbokki because I had some rice cakes at home."
"The tteokbokki that Kim Yeo-ju makes is my favorite tteokbokki."
"ㅋㅋㅋ I'm hungry, let's eat quickly"
"Okay, okay"
"Wow.. Yeoju.. Your tteokbokki is really the truth.. I think you could open a store?"
"Not that much..."
"That's right, that's right."
"Hahaha, right? When is that friend coming?"
"I'm arriving at 3 o'clock... I'll probably be back around 6 o'clock, but I have to find my luggage and do other things."
"Can I pick you up at the airport?"
"Oh, I just took the bus."
"I see. But I didn't know you had friends overseas?"
"We grew up in the same apartment and went to the same school together, even middle school. But then he suddenly went abroad to study, so we lost contact for a while?! But somehow we reconnected."
"Oh... Then what does your friend do?"
"I don't know. I think he's a yoga instructor or something."
Yoga instructor...? Isn't that usually a job for women? Well, maybe not. And not even in Korea, but overseas.
"A yoga instructor... that sounds good. I want to be good at yoga too~ But as I get older, my body gets stiff..."
"That could be... I can't do leg splits anymore either..ㅜ"
"ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I shouldn't have split my legs.. but Taehyung, right now is not the time for us to be like this. Look at the mess at home.. it's a total pigsty"
"Hey lady... can't you just rest for a bit and then clean up?"
"You can't use it. You have to clean up and rest. You can't just rest and then clean up. Kim Taehyung, kid. Now, hurry up and start cleaning."
" yes.. "
3 PM
"Taehyung, are you done?"
"Ugh... It's so hard... I feel like my back is broken because it's been years since I've cleaned this hard."
"ㅋㅋㅋ You did well. Should we rest now? There's about 3 hours left until your friend arrives, right?"
"Well, let's watch a movie..."
"Hey, let's watch Jaws"
"Jaws...? That Jaws where the shark comes out and the guy's leg gets cut off..?"
"Hey!!! Isn't that fun?? No. Are you scared..?"
"Me? The world's Kim Taehyung?? Absolutely not. That's right! Let's see, Jaws."
30 minutes later
"Ewwwwwwwwww!!!! What the fuck, I thought my heart was going to stop"
"Ah ...
"Hey, can't we look at something else?"
"ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Okay, you choose"
"Hmm... how about Minions...?"
"Ah, Minionsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Kim Taehyung's taste is really uniqueㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Okay, let's watch Minions"
"Hehehe, I saw the Minions"
5:45 PM
"Wasn't it so much fun, heroine?? You were so cute.. "
"Hahaha it was fun"
"Oh my, it's almost 6 o'clock already."
"Afternoon... I'm shaking"
"Why are you shaking? LOL Just my friend. My friend. You get it?"
"Yeah yeah I know I know"
Ding dong- ding dong ding dong ding dong-
"Oh, you're here."
"Coming~ "
Clank-
" Oh My Goshhhh long time no see!!! It's been sooooo long, Kim Taehyung "
"Jessica!!! Long time no see. Yeoju, this is Jessica. My Korean name is Areum! Jessica, my girlfriend Yeoju."
"Ah..! Hello..? My name is Taehyung's girlfriend, Kim Yeo-joo."
It's a woman. Why did I assume it would be a man? It could be a woman. I should have asked Taehyung... If I knew it was a woman, it wouldn't be okay to sleep together.
" HIIIII I've heard sooo much about you. Taehyung bragged about his girlfriend the other day? I bet she's lucky~ She has a boyfriend like Taehyung."
What is this...? Is this just a greeting? I must be overreacting.
"Yes...! You must be tired from the long trip."
"No! Absolutely not. I'm full of energy."
"Look, heroine. Didn't I tell you?"
"That's right. But you must be hungry... You should eat dinner! I made bossam, so eat it."
"Oh my gosh, Bossam! My favorite Korean food. Thank you so much~"
"Yes? Oh... I see."
Knock knock knock-
"Eat it..! I don't know if it will suit your taste."
"Woww!!! This is so delicious? Awesome! The female protagonist has golden hands~ Kim Taehyung, you're so lucky. To have a girlfriend like this."
"That's why I'm blessed."
"Oh, right. Miss. Do you know that? Kim Taehyung is my first love?"
"Oh, really, why are you talking about that?"
"...? Oh... I see."
"We first met in kindergarten, and I was like, 'Oh my gosh, I've never seen such a handsome person before.' It was love at first sight."
What the hell. Isn't this crazy? The more I think about it, the crazier it gets. This is truly crazy. It's uncomfortable enough being a woman, but your first love is Kim Taehyung? Who knows what could happen in a few days. This can't be happening.
"Ah..haha Kim Taehyung, come here for a second"
"Huh? Why?"
"Ha... You didn't say your friend was a girl. If she was a girl, I would have booked a hotel for her or something. But you said she was your first love? How would you know if she still likes you or not? I can tell right now that she still likes you, so why are you sleeping with her..?"
"Hey, I understand. Sometimes he talks nonsense. But I really don't like him. I'm sorry I didn't tell you because you were a woman. That was really my fault. But nothing will happen. I promise."
"I'm going crazy, seriously... Taehyung. We were able to date for 7 years without getting bored because we trusted each other. And I still trust and love you. But... this isn't right. Right? Think about it from my perspective too. If you were a man you've never met before, would you be comfortable sleeping over at my house? "
"Taehyung~~ Yeoju~~ What are you doing? Why is it taking so long~"
" .. Heroine. Trust me just for today. Starting tomorrow, I'll do what I told you to do to book a hotel. But.. It's late today, right? I'll just sleep tonight and spend tomorrow somewhere else. Okay..?"
"Ha.... Okay, I understand. Just for today, Kim Taehyung."
"Yeah, I know. I really love you, Yeoju."
"Okay... let's go quickly"
12:00 AM
"Taehyung, it's late, I have to go now."
"You're leaving already, Miss Yeoju..? It's too bad..ㅜ I liked you, Miss Yeoju. Let's meet again later!"
"Yes..! Okay. Then I'll be off."
"Should I take you, heroine?"
" .. uh. take me."
"Okay. Ara-ya, just stay alone for a moment. I'll take Yeoju to you."
"Ok~ See you, Yeoju!"
"Yes! It's beautiful too."
"Kim Taehyung. Promise me, you're not going to sleep over at your house tomorrow. Got it?"
"Yeah, I understand. Just for today."
"Then I'll go in."
"Hello, Yeoju! I love you."
"I love you too~"
