Taming the Gangsters

“So, this is how we get this answer.”
“It’s a bit difficult. But you explain it well.”
“It’s a problem that can be solved if you think about it a little.”
“….”
“I think that’s right.”
“What’s wrong all of a sudden?”
Hearing Yoongi's sudden interruption of Taehyung and Yeoju's conversation, Taehyung tilted his head and asked again. Yoongi thought for a moment, then looked at Yeoju with bright, confident eyes.
“You explain things well, Yeoju.”
"however…?"
“It seems like Yeoju’s path has been decided.
“How about you, teacher?”
“What, you’re still paying attention to what I said last winter…?”
“I told you then, we’ll look for it together.”
“Still… I’m so touched.
But teacher? Do I get along well with you?”
“Yeah, now that I look at it, it looks exactly like a teacher’s face.”
“Really? Haha”
“Yeah. It’s perfect. It’s perfect.”
“Hey, are you going to live sadly as a solo? Stop being a tease.”
“Do you have a girlfriend?”
“What are you talking about, it’s been two months since we broke up?”
“It hasn’t been that long since we met, has it…?”
“We’ve known each other for a long time. It’s been over 100 days.”
“This kid is a total bad kid.
“You said you had lost interest in your girlfriend on her birthday and dumped her.”
“Wow… This is trash.”
“No, then it’s clear that your feelings have cooled down, so should we continue dating?
That's worse, it's not even hope torture.
And we were awkward even before that.”
“You still haven’t forgotten, have you?”
“What…? Who…? Haha, maybe Kim Yeo-ju?”
"uh."
“Are you crazy? I don’t even remember his face.”
“Tomorrow is the college entrance exam day. This is ridiculous.”
“Yeah. Time flies so fast.
“The college entrance exam has always been a test that feels distant to me.”
“What if I get lucky?”
“You have to work hard. Don’t give up.”
“You must study hard and get into college.
“You alone… Look carefully, heroine.”
“Baekhyun Byun, you should take good care of yourself too.
“Why didn’t you sing a song when you came to college with me?”
“Yeah, that was the original goal.
But not anymore.”
"huh?"
“There’s someone I’ve been in contact with lately.
“My unrequited love is over. We are truly best friends.”
“Wow, really? That went well.”
“Yeah, that’s good.
“I feel good because I feel like we’re real friends now.”
“Then don’t make me your target anymore.
Take that woman as your contact.
It will be the best motivation for you.
“There’s nothing scarier than sincerity in your teens.”
“Hey, what happened…?
“I passed…?”
On the day of Yoongi's university acceptance/failure results, at exactly the right time, the only sound in Taehyung's house was the click of Yoongi's mouse. Seokjin, unable to bear to open his eyes and face Yoongi's situation after seeing the results, asked, his voice trembling, as if it were his own business.
“….”
"me…."
“I passed… haha, I passed.”
“I passed!”
Yoongi, who had been sitting frozen in his chair for about three seconds, finally spoke up after assessing the situation. Namjoon, who had been tense since a while ago, finally seemed to relax and smiled brightly.
“Wow, awesome! Is our Yoongi really becoming a prosecutor? Huh? Haha.”
“Did S University say that they have a reserve?”
“Yeah, but I don’t think it’ll work lol
“You have to be satisfied with Y University. S University was a bit higher in the first place.”
“You never know. Kim Taehyung also went to J University with a strong upward trend and got accepted.”
“It would be really great if I could get into S University, lol”
Fortunately, their grades were commensurate with their efforts. And they were accepted into the school of their dreams. Eighteen, they were now twenty, freshmen college students.
“Congratulations on your new admission!”
Taehyung's heart began to race again when he saw the banner congratulating the incoming freshmen. It seemed to him that he was truly a student at J University, a prestigious university in Seoul. Taehyung ran a hand over his chest, took a deep breath, and entered the school.
“Wow, the orthodontics are pretty. J University is truly different.
Wow, there's something like this too?
As expected, J University.”
Pak-
“Oh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
“Kim Yeo-ju…?”
“…!!”
“N, what are you….
“You… are a freshman…?”
"…. uh."
It was their first reunion in about two years. She'd lost weight, her face had become smaller, and her eyes had become sharper, but Taehyung could still recognize her. A few months ago, when asked if he'd forgotten Kim Yeoju, Taehyung had vehemently denied it, saying he couldn't even remember her face. Taehyung, who was still like that, recognized the changed Yeoju at a glance. His heart pounded wildly. It wasn't the thrill of seeing the banner earlier. His heart raced at the thought of seeing someone he'd never see again, in an unexpected place, and because it had to be Kim Yeoju.
“…. Sorry, I have to go.”
Percussion-
Taehyung grabbed the woman who was trying to pick up her belongings and leave quickly. All he could think was that this was God's last chance. He hated her to death, but he also loved her to death.
“Are you going to go like this?”
“….”
After a long silence, Taehyung opened his mouth again.
Perhaps it could be seen as the true feelings that Taehyung had been holding back for the past two years.
"don't go."
“I missed you.”
Only the buds that survive the cold winter will bloom beautiful flowers in spring.
To bloom ‘flowers’, which are a little more mature versions of ourselves
We had a very cold winter last year.
“Yeoju, your score went up by 70 points after you tutored me?
I knew it, you have a talent for teaching~”
“So Jiho and his friends decided to join us too.
“I can buy my future boyfriend more delicious food than I can now!”
Even in the midst of unbearable hardships and adversities,
A sprout that endures to the end and blooms is more beautiful.
Even if spring brings hardships like winter,
Because I can deal with it more maturely than I did back then.
“I don’t need all that delicious stuff lol”
“Oh, why don’t you need it? I’m buying it for you.”
"no.
“I just need you.”
You can do anything.
It's an age where that's possible.
Mistakes, successes.
And a fatal failure too.
It's just that I'm at an age where I can do anything.
Because we are little sprouts waiting for spring.
_until now Taming the GangstersThank you for loving me❤️
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ
hello everyone!
So, the taming of gangsters has come to an end.
I always think the last episode is the hardest.
In particular, this work is not just about the love of teenagers,
Because I also wanted to include the process of growing up,
It was so hard to finish it🥲🥲
Whenever someone says, "Why do reckless teenagers act like that?", as long as it's not something they broke the law, I want to say, "Because they're teenagers." Because they're at an age where they can learn so much, grow, and become more complete. I wanted to express those aspects, but I'm not sure if I conveyed them well 😅 I haven't written many stories about growth(?) or youth(?) like this 😂
Anyway…!
Thank you for being with me for over 4 months, from January to May ❤️ It feels like it wasn't that long ago that I started serializing, but 4 months have already passed by. Time really flies.
If you have any questions about the work or me, please leave a comment💕 I will answer them all today!
Once again
Thank you so much to everyone who has watched so far :)
