Live with your ex-boyfriend!

*Kim Taehyung's point of view*

I'd be lying if I said I didn't expect our relationship to be like this again. The reason I agreed to participate in this ridiculous program in the first place was because of Kim Yeo-ju, and I hoped to win her back through this program. It was funny how I couldn't catch her then, and now I'm trying to catch her a year later. That's how desperately I wanted her. From the moment I decided to participate in this program, I've been anticipating a reunion with you.

Kim Yeo-ju was never able to hide her emotions. Even a single lie showed through her whole body. Whether she was excited or angry, it was all visible. At least to my eyes. It's been that way since we started living together. If you were planning to lie to me, you were wrong. Because I could see everything about you, I could always find my way back to you, no matter how many times you pushed me away.

We'd been living like that for a while. One morning, as we were walking a tightrope due to Kim Yeo-ju's persistent lies, I felt needlessly nervous, worried that you might feel awkward seeing me after the weekend. But Kim Yeo-ju faced me with even more nervousness than I did, and I waited for her to hesitate, unsure of what to say. On that needlessly anxious morning, Kim Yeo-ju finally spoke honestly to me, and our spark was rekindled. Very cautiously.

"… love you."

“I love you too, Kim Taehyung.”

Our second beginning was more cautious than any other, more thrilling than any other, and more beautiful than any other day.

The shoot, which had been scheduled for two weeks, happened to fall on the day of our reunion. I wanted to at least post a part, but since it was a joint shoot, not a solo shoot, I had no choice but to prepare. I was worried about Kim Yeo-ju, who would be home alone. Kim Yeo-ju offered to follow me, so I held her hand tightly until we arrived on set.

If there was anything Kim Yeo-ju didn't know about today's shoot, it was probably about the person I'd be shooting with. The model I'd be shooting with today was Se-ri, a hot female model these days. Since things weren't like this two weeks ago, I didn't really have anything to say, and I figured she'd just come to the set and see. Well, I wish she'd at least been a little jealous. Kim Yeo-ju was so nonchalant that I couldn't tell if she was offended or not. Rather, it was a warning to work hard and do well. Even when we were dating before, Kim Yeo-ju wasn't the type to get jealous easily, but sometimes she wished she would. So, with Se-ri, whom I wouldn't normally have spoken to, I greeted her once and varied my poses a bit.

Then, during a brief break, something happened. As I was about to approach Kim Yeo-ju, who was likely exhausted from the long shoot, Seori tapped my arm and gestured for me to come closer to her ear. Perhaps she might be giving me some feedback for the shoot, I stopped trying to approach her and leaned closer to Seori.

“Taehyung, listen to me for a second…”

“Is this something to do with filming?”

“No. It’s a very personal matter, but what’s the relationship between that woman and Taehyung?”

My mind raced. The thought that Seori was asking me this question must be because she was at least a little interested in me quickly took hold. We were finally meeting again today, and I didn't want to let something as trivial as this cause even the slightest rift. Here, I had to give Seori a definite answer, draw a proper line, and maintain some distance.

“This is my girlfriend.”

“Ah-, somehow. Even from afar, I can see a pink tint… It’s a bit disappointing!”

“What is it?”

“If you didn’t have a girlfriend, I was going to try to get you to come over. Taehyung, your face is totally my style.”

"ah…"

“Don’t worry, I’m not the type of woman who would touch someone who already has a partner.”

My prediction was somewhat correct, but also somewhat wrong. I thought Seori's mindset—that she was interested in you but wouldn't touch you—was quite admirable. No, Seori was a better person than I thought. Seori shrugged with a hearty laugh. Seeing Seori's cool demeanor, saying she wouldn't touch someone who had a partner, I, too, began to slowly let down the wall I'd been building.Thank you for clarifying, Mr. Frost.

“Hey, Taehyung, even if I had planned to seduce you in the first place, you wouldn’t have fallen for it.”

"yes?"

"It all shows, Taehyung, how much you love and cherish your girlfriend. You're not going to let me get involved, are you?"

It was accurate. We, who had reunited today, no, I, had no reason to waver from the start, and I knew I wouldn't waver in the future. This renewed feeling was by no means small. I felt it was remarkable that Seori had seen through my heart.

“Let’s keep this passionate love going for as long as possible, like crazy. Because the two of you are so compatible.”

“I wish the female lead had listened to it too…”

“Is your name Yeoju? You’re pretty, but isn’t it unfair that your name is also pretty?”

“My girlfriend is always pretty.”

Seori sincerely supported our love. I even wondered what it would have been like if Kim Yeo-ju had heard all this? When Seori heaped praise on Kim Yeo-ju, I too smiled and told her about her. It was a happiness that mixed praise and pride. I loved you so much that even talking about Kim Yeo-ju to someone else brought me joy.

It was Kim Taehyung, relaying to me the conversation he and Seori had just had. Seori seemed like a good person, to the point where I felt bad for having held her in such a negative light. Well... But I was still jealous, after all... After hearing the whole story, even my childish jealousy was turning into a rage.It's a waste.

“Why, you’re just cute in my eyes.”

“Then what are you going to do… I’m going to die right now!”

“Please be jealous sometimes from now on.”

"no…"

“I don’t think Kim Yeo-ju’s jealousy is a bad thing, though.”

Kim Taehyung grabbed my cheeks with both hands and forced me to meet his gaze, forcing me to meet his gaze. I was still a little embarrassed, but I was so happy in this moment. It was so good I wished time would stop.You know, Taehyung.

"huh?"

“I like you so much-.”

The words came out without me even realizing it. The sunlight was just right, not too hot, and the breeze was blowing gently enough to make my hair flutter. A few people were milling around, but we were the only ones standing still. This atmosphere somehow made me feel compelled to say these words. It was all because of the current atmosphere, which had unknowingly made me emotional.

As I smiled faintly, his eyes flickering, Kim Taehyung paused for a moment. Then, with the hands cupping my cheeks, he gently pulled me in and kissed me. A loud, embarrassed moan escaped my lips, and my eyes widened again, but the problem was that I didn't dislike it at all. Isn't this what it means to be captivated by Kim Taehyung?

“I like you much more, Kim Yeo-ju.”

I'm completely captivated by Kim Taehyung. Anyway, Kim Taehyung makes me intoxicated by him without fail. If Kim Taehyung's problems were problems, then he was problems, and if he had charm, then he was charm. For a moment, I felt certain. A certainty that, a few years from now, our future will be just like it is now.

I dare say my confidence this time will be 100% accurate. And my predictions have always been right.

[EPILOGUE]

Q. What do you think the future will be like if we are together?

“…You’ll be happy because your loved one will be right next to you.”

"I'd be incredibly happy with Kim Yeo-ju, just like we were when we loved each other so much. Even if we're not, I just hope that question remains in the present tense."
