First unrequited love, the temperature of that day.

09, shake

We sat across the table for a while in silence.

What was I thinking when I said let's talk?

김태형

Senior, why are you avoiding me?

은여주 image

은여주

Taehyung.

김태형 image

김태형

Is that because I like you? If that's the case, I'll make sure you don't mind.

김태형 image

김태형

So, don't avoid me, senior.

은여주 image

은여주

Do you want to know why I avoided you? Are you sure you won't be hurt if you hear it?

김태형 image

김태형

....yes.

은여주 image

은여주

..then follow me.

plodding-

The sound of Taehyung's footsteps echoes roughly inside the quiet columbarium.

은여주 image

은여주

Here it is.

김태형 image

김태형

..yunki min.

은여주 image

은여주

This is my lover.

Min Yoongi, a photo and an urn neatly engraved with Yoongi's name greet us.

은여주 image

은여주

Have you heard? I had a lover who died of an illness.

김태형 image

김태형

..yes.

은여주 image

은여주

I've been seeing a shine in you for some time now.

김태형 image

김태형

......

은여주 image

은여주

It was scary, because your appearance resembled Yoongi so much that I kept seeing Yoongi in you.

I'm afraid I'll say I like you because of those looks.

은여주 image

은여주

So I avoided it, so,

김태형 image

김태형

no, I do not want.

은여주 image

은여주

Taehyung.

김태형 image

김태형

If that's the reason, I can't give up on you, senior.

은여주 image

은여주

....

김태형 image

김태형

I don't know how much my senior loved that person, but I like him enough to not lose to his feelings.

은여주 image

은여주

Taehyung...you...

김태형 image

김태형

So, I won't give up.

You really are...

Phew-

As soon as I got home, I threw myself on the bed.

I placed my hand on my heart and quietly closed my eyes. I could still feel my heartbeat, faint but rapid.

은여주 image

은여주

Yoongi, I...

은여주 image

은여주

I think it's shaking.....

I think my heart is wavering because of that kid.

I reached out and picked up the framed photo of Yoongi. The moment I saw his face, tears welled up and fell onto the blanket.

은여주 image

은여주

I'm scared... I'm scared, Yoongi...

은여주 image

은여주

I'm so scared that I'll forget you.
