Knock knock, knock.
"Hey, Mom, Taehyung is going to meet you. Do you want to come with me?"
"...um...yeah"
"Can you get it done within 30 minutes?"
"huh"

"Oh my, you've grown so much, lady."
".. thank you"
I guess senior Taehyung didn't come.
"Our Taehyung doesn't come out in places like this, which is the problem."

There, outside the cafe door, was senior Taehyung. He motioned for me to come over, and I told him I'd be out for a bit.
"What are you?"
".. I guess you don't remember. I'll go in."
"No, just sleep."
"What?"
"Yoongi"
"We broke up. Okay? I'll go."
"You're that kid from middle school."
"I remember."
"I'm not that stupid"
"Did you come to Gangjeon then?"
"No.. no"
"..what's the use of hiding it"
"..you're going to hate me"
"I liked that girl even though I knew she was like that too."
"..yeah, Yoongi was more stubborn than me"
"But why did you become close to me in middle school?"
"Because it's pretty"
".. yes?"
"Because it's pretty"
"..."
"Contact me"
"great"
"Give me your number."
With my mom's permission, I decided to play with Taehyung...my older brother.
"Do I have to call you oppa..?"
"huh."
"Yoongi kept talking to me informally, but I was too scared and scared of him, so I just let it be."
"..Taehyung..Oppa..?"
"..so cute (snickers)"
I saw a glimmer of light in the distance. I tried to grab it, but my brother stopped me.
".. taehyoung kim?"
"why?"
"Why are you with him? (Serious)"
"You're not a dad anymore, are you? I heard you must have cried a lot."
"I didn't say we broke up yet. Let's break up, Kang Yeo-ju."
"Why are you asking if you're going to break up even if I say no?"
".. Heroine, just forget about it. You know he's a bad guy, so why do you like him.. It hurts."
".. I gave you a lot of love, but you got sick of it, so you threw it away."
"I liked it because I thought you were coming to your senses, but I'm falling for you. YeahLet's break up"
".. Oppa, let's go.."
"okay.."
".. uh.. uh.."
"Don't cry, you won't look pretty if you cry."
"Ugh... Ugh... Ah... I'm going to..."
".. Well, I loved you so much, so I guess it'll be hard to get back together easily."
"Still, I think Yoongi really loved you."
"He's never been sincere."
"You must have been good... because you bragged to me for a long time."
"I liked you too"
"... No, just sleep, what do you mean?"
"I liked it"
"It's past tense, right..?"
"It could be present tense"
".."
"Ah, it must be the present tense. When I keep looking at you, my heart rate increases."
"..Are you serious?"
"huh"
"...Okay, I'll believe you."
