Taehyung has a friend who recently discovered that he was suffering from the latest stages of cancer. Although this friend had attended our wedding, I wasn’t able to interact much with him as I was simply too busy that day. That said, I do remember him as a cute fellow hailing from Busan, and when he smiled, his eyes would crinkle up and form a line. When he was toasting us, his other friends even joked that he had such a cute smile that makes his eyes crinkle up so much that it is not easy to locate his eyes.
During the weekend, I accompanied Taehyung on a visit to the hospital. Both of us knew in our hearts that this could very well be the last time we saw him. Before we left the house, Taehyung reminded me to remain composed. Although I understood what Taehyung meant, I couldn’t help but feel terrible when I saw the 62 kg healthy man of the past reduced to becoming a bag of bones lying on the bed, trying his best to smile and welcome us despite having difficulty breathing. Conversely, Taehyung chatted with him as normal.
As we didn’t want to disturb the patient’s rest, we didn’t stay long and chose to leave soon after. After exiting the ward, I accompanied Taehyung to the stairway where he could relax. There, the two of us sat side by side on the staircase, both of us choosing not to speak a single word.
There are occasions when I would think about death. When I was a teenager, I wasn’t afraid of death in the slightest, simply accepting that it was something everybody had to experience one day. However, nowadays, I’m truly afraid of such a day arriving. It’s not because I’m afraid of pain and suffering; rather, I fear that I would no longer be able to enjoy the things I presently cherish. I fear that I would no longer be able to hug the people I love. I fear that I would no longer be able to accompany my children when they’re growing up. More importantly, Taehyung and I have already become such an integral part of each other – we’re connected to each other by all our little, mundane experiences – and I’m afraid because the one who suffers most isn’t the one who leaves, but the one who is left behind. I can’t bear for him to be unhappy, not even the slightest bit. Every time I think about these, I’m extremely, extremely afraid.
He says that I’m being too sentimental, but he doesn’t know; he doesn’t realize that in actuality, the person who made me this way is him, and him alone.
Although Love arms one with armor, it simultaneously causes one to have a weakness.

One day, I was buying fruits at a market near our place. Just as I was focused on selecting some yellow peaches for Taehyung who really loves them, the guy standing next to me suddenly spoke up, “What are these called?”
I surveyed the surroundings in an attempt to confirm that he was asking me (and not the boss of the fruit stall) before replying, “Yellow peaches.”
He nodded his head before asking again, “Are they delicious?”
“Um…… It depends on personal preference.”
“Do you like them?”
“They’re alright.”
After purchasing my fruits, I left the fruit stall. Just then, the guy caught up to me with a bag of yellow peaches in his hand.
“By the way, I'm Lee Jong-Suk, Can I have your mobile number? Kakao is fine too, I just hope that we can be friends.”
Is this an actual pick-up line which I thought only existed in legends and myths? I never ever thought that I would actually experience such a situation in my life! I tried my best to repress my delight and answered apologetically, “But…… my husband won’t be too happy about it.”
The other party was tremendously shocked, “You’re married?”
“Yup!” I showed him my wedding ring.
“It’s okay, I just want to be friends.” He gave me the bag of yellow peaches along with his name card before leaving the scene. As such, I carried the two bags of yellow peaches home in a stupefied state.
When I related my miraculous experience to Taehyung, he was extremely disdainful. “Giving you a bag of yellow peaches? What!!” He looked at the guy’s name card and further sneered, “Finance Manager from JN Global Company.”
I looked at the name card. “Oh, he’s even a Finance manager! Don’t get jealous.”
He smirked coldly, “Am I that childish?”
I left the name card on the dining table out of convenience and went to the kitchen to help Taehyung wash his yellow peaches. A few days later, I suddenly recalled this incident and discovered that the name card on the dining table was gone. When I asked Taehyung, he replied nonchalantly, “I threw it away. When I was cleaning the table the other day, I accidentally poured a cup of water on it.”
Usually, the number of times a certain fellow voluntarily tidies up the house could be counted within a single hand, not to mention he even “accidentally” poured some water…… The villain’s intentions are obvious.

We returned to our parents’ home during Seollal (Korean Lunar New Year). Taehyung has a huge extended family – as he had all sorts of paternal uncles, paternal aunts, maternal uncles, maternal aunts, paternal cousins, maternal cousins, nieces, and nephews, we always had people visiting every day in order to exchange Seollal greetings. And with the further inclusion of Taehyung’s father’s colleagues, the house was basically chock full of people……
As Taehyung’s father is a very disciplined man, both Taehyung and I were always on our best behavior when we were at home. Every morning, we’d wake up at 6 AM and sit in the living room, yawning whilst staring at each other helplessly. When the visitors started streaming in, Taehyung’s mother dispatched the two of us to undertake the task of washing fruits.
Taehyung glanced at the people in the living room. “Doesn’t it look like Plants vs Zombies?”
Me: “Ah?”
Him: “Another wave of zombies is about to attack.”
I laughed aloud. “Be careful, if Appa hears you he’s going to give you a good beating.”
“Exchanging Lunar New Year greetings in this manner is so inefficient and troublesome; the entire process ought to be simplified.”
“How do you propose such a simplification?”
“Well, we could use our phones to send various gift vouchers, and the recipients could simply head down to the departmental stores on their own accord to retrieve the gifts.”
“Pfft……”
“The Lunar New Year money given to children could also simply be given through internet banking.”
Just then, Taehyung’s father called us over to introduce some people to us. “This is Uncle Kwon ……” I immediately greeted him. Before Uncle Kwon left, he attempted to give me a Money packet. As it was rather odd for me to receive money in Korean New Year due to my old age, I hurriedly refused.
“When you and Taehyung married, I wasn’t able to attend your wedding. So take this as a form of compensation.”
As such, I had no choice but to accept the Money packet silently. After dinner, Taehyung and I went for a stroll. I fished out the Money packet, opened it, and happily began counting the money in it. Having discovered the great generosity of Uncle Kwon, I expressed my sentiments, “Forget about internet banking, counting physical wads of cash is more pleasurable.”
He laughed at me, “Moneygrubber.”
“O Mighty and Great Kim Taehyung, do you want to give the humble one some Lunar New Year money as well?”
“Sure.” He fished out a 10-dollar note and handed it to me before continuing, “Return me three dollars.”
“What? Nobody gives Korean New Year money expecting changes in return!”
“The number 7 has a good symbolic message.”
[A/N: 7 in Korean is referred to as “칠” (chil) in Sino-Korean and in the native as “일곱” (ilgop), which is considered as lucky. Thus, Taehyung is basically saying that he wants to be with Y/N forever.]

I was at the department store purchasing Korean New Year goods when I met my High School classmate Se-Hwa, She recognized me on sight and exclaimed, “Y/N, you really haven’t changed a single bit.”
“No, it’s patently obvious that I’ve aged, having been through numerous vicissitudes of life.”
“No, you still retain that retarded vibe you always had.”
“……”
After chatting for some time, she suddenly said, “Oh right, I’m attending a gathering the day after tomorrow, Jung Hoseok organized it because it happens to be his birthday that day. Why don’t you come along?”
When I returned to the car, I asked Taehyung, “The day after tomorrow is Jung Hoseok’s birthday, do you want to go?”
He shook his head, “Not interested.”
After driving for some time, he suddenly asked me, “Is Jung Hoseok the one who was called sunshine and sat in front of you?”
Me: “Yes he is, why?”
Taehyung’s tone suddenly changed, “I’ll go.”
Ah, I never knew that Kim Taehyung was on such good terms with Jung Hoseok. As such, both Taehyung and I attended the gathering with presents in our hands. When Hoseok saw me, he was delighted, “Y/N! Oh my god, you actually made it!?” As he was extremely open, he stretched his arms out wide in an attempt to give me a bear hug. Just then, a certain person grabbed me and shielded me with his body like an old mother hen. He presented the gifts to Hoseok and said expressionlessly, “Happy birthday.”
I made fun of Taehyung internally – when this fellow is at home, his train of thought was extremely active, and he could mock me with great fluency and brilliance. However, the moment he stepped out of the house, he would automatically switch on his ‘arrogant and cold’ mode and speak in a crisp and sharp manner, with no excessive words in his speeches.
Se-Hwa later dragged me to the side and asked me softly, “Wow, you’re married to Kim Taehyung?!”
“Yes, didn’t you know?”
“What!? I was in Australia for the past few years, and it was very difficult for me to remain updated with the latest gossip! Ah, I wouldn’t have invited you if I had known earlier!”
“Why? Are you discriminating against married women?”
“Haiz…… Hoseok used to have a crush on you in the past. Because of this, Taehyung even fought with him once.”
What in the world!!!!!! This was too much information for me to handle!!!!!!
As a result, I was extremely jumpy and nervous during the entire dinner. As a retarded lady with an overactive imagination, I was terribly worried that these two love rivals would suddenly jump up and start fighting it out. And if they start fighting, who should I help? Or should I be like the female characters in Kdramas and simply enjoy or faint on the spot? Ah, I regretted not taking lessons or practicing how to faint in an elegant manner. In the end, these two love rivals were extremely calm, and the gathering ended in a warm and loving atmosphere.
On the way back home, I couldn’t resist asking, “There are rumors…… uh…… that…… you have some discord with Hoseok?”
“He is actually a good guy, But what exactly do you want to ask?”
“It’s rumored that…… Hoseok used to like me in the past?”
He nodded his head.
“It’s rumored that…… you two even fought because of me?”
He looked at me skeptically, “Who told you this?”
“You mean it didn’t happen?”
“It didn’t.”
“Then how did you manage to discover that he used to like me?”
“He wrote a love letter and requested Seokjin hyung to pass it to you. I happened to see the love letter, so I asked him out and told him not to affect your studies.”
“What happened next?”
“Nothing else happened.”
“He just gave up so easily?!”
“I told you he is a good guy, but exactly what else do you want from him?”
“What! He ought to be like the male lead in Our Beloved Summer and tried to pursue me cutely! Otherwise he could even stand guard at the door of my house for one entire rainy night and shout for me. My brother would lock the door and disallow me from heading out, whilst my mom would raise her arm, giving me a good hard slap. Left with no choice, I would hammer the door desperately, and ultimately slide down onto the floor whilst sobbing in anguish……”
“Stop watching so many Kdramas in your free time, it affects your intellect.”

I don’t usually keep an eye on the expenses that we incur on a daily basis. One day, out of curiosity, I decided to head to the bank to obtain a copy of the transactions that took place in our current account for the past year. It was only then that I discovered that the monthly expenses incurred for electricity, water usage, gas usage, floor heating, and Wi-Fi usage added up to an enormous sum!!
The miserly part of my personality emerged immediately, and I decided that – from today onwards – I’d start to reduce our daily expenses; I was determined to transform into an industrious and thrifty wife.
When I walked into the supermarket, the phrase “meticulous and careful spending” was written all over my face. Organic vegetables? Shan’t buy them, they’re way too expensive! In any event, consuming small portions of pesticide may even help to kill any roundworms we may have. My most beloved Ferrero Rocher Chocolate? Shan’t buy them either, I can lose weight and save money simultaneously, thus killing two birds with one stone. Should I buy five normal menstrual pads, or should I buy the twenty menstrual pads currently on offer? I started counting with my fingers in an attempt to discern which option was more value-for-money. Taehyung has an insatiable desire for meat, but beef is extremely expensive. I suppose I’d just cook him a dish of vegetables with ham for dinner tonight.
I would usually turn on all the lights the moment I reach home, as the blinding brightness afforded me a sense of security. However, just as I put my bag down and was about to turn on the lights, I hesitated. After some thought, I simply decided to conserve electricity. Thus, I turned off all the lights, grabbed my laptop, and began to write my drafts in the complete darkness of the living room.
When Taehyung opened the door upon returning home, he had a great shock. “Why didn’t you turn on the lights?”
“Conserving electricity.”
Speechless, he grabbed a can of Coca-Cola from the fridge.
“Don’t throw the can away after you finish your Cola.” I pointed to the entrance hall, continuing in a serious tone, “We can sell it for some cash.”
“Would you cut it out?” He rolled his eyes at me. “Let’s go eat sushi tomorrow.”
Being the extremely principled person that I am, I resisted the temptation. “Sorry, but we have exceeded our monthly budget.”
His face gradually turned black, signifying his bad mood. I acted as though I didn’t see the thunderous expression etched on his face, and toddled off to bathe. Who would have known that he would pull the shower curtain open just as I turned on the shower?
“What are you doing?”
He started stripping his clothes off expressionlessly. “We must conserve water, so let’s shower together.”
Hey, You stupid hooligan!!

My neighbor’s daughter is in Year 3 of High School this year and flopped her preliminary exams. Upon questioning, her mother discovered that her daughter had entered into a relationship at such a young age. In her anxiety, she asked me to help counsel her daughter.
I wondered doubtfully, “Unnie, do you really not know that Taehyung and I started having feelings for each other at an extremely young age too…” However, with a heart hungry for gossip, I nevertheless decided to attempt counseling the girl.
The young lady trusted me a fair bit, and told me in a straightforward manner, “I like a boy who is in my class.”
“That’s pretty normal. It’s not a big deal even if you end up heartbroken.”
“I’m not heartbroken, the liking is mutual.”
“Then what are you worried about?”
“But… I already have a boyfriend.”
“……”
“They even stay in the same dorm.”
“……”
“It’s precise because of the two of them that I’m feeling so vexed. Also, there’s another boy in their dorm, he’s extremely warm and kind. I frequently call him out to chat, and he too, confessed to me last week.”
“……”
“Haizz, I didn’t want things to end up this way.”
I was in a state of bewilderment, “So… you basically swept everyone in that dorm?”
She sighed in exasperation, “That’s why I’m so worried and melancholic.”
I was feeling extremely inferior, and told Taehyung upon returning home, “The young girls nowadays are so accomplished. When I was at her age, I hadn’t managed to achieve anything. Neither was I good at studying – I couldn’t even catch the formulas for Mathematics properly.”
A certain person replied slowly, “But you managed to catch me.”

Taehyung’s alcohol tolerance is Ok. If I were to express it in his words, it would be “adequate, but there would be no problems causing Y/N to be plastered.” He never intends to get drunk; even when he’s drunk, he remains quiet and is able to somehow manage to send everybody off in taxis before finally returning home.
On the other hand, I’m the polar opposite. I’m the type of person who often goes around looking for trouble, and the moment I’m happy I’d look for alcohol. Although I’m usually the one hollering the loudest, I’ll end up being the first to get plastered. That said, I have my principles too – I engage in such crazy activities only if the people I’m hanging out with are all my trusted friends. Whenever I attend a gathering with people I’m unfamiliar with, I would refuse even a single drop of alcohol regardless of how much others try to persuade me. Taehyung has expressed his relief in this regard.
Once, after I returned home from a gathering with my friends, a sudden impulse seized me, and I insisted on acting out a scene of “forcing the innocent maiden”. He agreed instantly and was about to start ‘forcing’ me when I pushed him aside. “No no, today you will be responsible for the role of the maiden.”
He gave it some thought and agreed, “Okay!”
This fellow then proceeded to disrobe quickly and lay on the bed before waving me over, “Hooligan, come quick.” Heyy! Isn’t this ‘innocent maiden’ too darned cooperative? How is the hooligan expected to feel in such a situation! Stunned, I was unable to figure out a way to continue the act even after giving it some thought.
“What are you waiting for?”
I crawled onto him and asked, “Usually, how does the hooligan ‘force’ the innocent maiden?”
His eyes crinkled and he smiled happily, flipping me onto the bed. “I’ll teach you.”

Due to my serious insomnia, a certain person started to force me to jog with him every single day. As I agreed that it was time for me to start training my body, I went to great pains to Online shopping for an entire afternoon and purchased a full jogging attire. After all, in order to accomplish the job well, one must first sharpen one’s tools.
On the first day, it felt pretty good as the experience was pretty new.
On the next day, I was quite tired, but his enthusiasm and high spirits encouraged me to grit my teeth and persevere.
On the third day, thoughts of how blissful I would have been if I was lying on the sofa at this hour, eating fruits and refreshing Naver flew through my mind whilst running.
On the fourth day, I seriously contemplated the problem at hand – if I continue running, when would I be able to end this torture?
On the fifth day, I asked him for a day’s break, telling him my dear husband, my period has arrived.
On the Nth day, I continued asking for my break, telling him dear husband, my period just ended.
On the N+1 day, I continued asking for a break, telling him dear husband, my period is about to come soon.
Him: “Ah, I finally understand now. The period is truly all-powerful.”
I nodded my head vigorously, “Exactly!! The timetable of women is basically divided in accordance with our periods.”

Sometime back when the World Cup was still ongoing, Taehyung’s luck in betting was extraordinarily terrible – all the teams which he thought were promising were all eliminated in the early stages. As a result, Taehyung was given a new, well-deserved title: Pele No. 2.
As the Finals neared, I persuaded Taehyung to bet on Belgium.
“Why? Don’t you think France has better prospects? Griezmann and Umtiti’s present condition is excellent blah blah…”
I shook my head, “It’s because Belgium has a attractive uniform.”
He insisted on betting on France, and finally 655122 ₩. Overjoyed, he took a photo of his earnings and bragged, “I’m now at a new peak of my life!”
I replied, “Sugar daddy, please sponsor me!”
He shook his head, “I can’t squander my money away.”
Me: “Sponsoring me is not squandering your money!”
After giving it some thought, he replied, “But it shouldn’t be called ‘sponsoring’.”
Initially, I thought that he would continue by saying that providing for his wife is a natural duty that he ought to fulfill.
In the end, he said, “It should be called ‘rearing’.”
Kim Taehyung is your proficiency in languages meant to be used as a weapon for insulting your wife?!

He is a soccer fan whereas my knowledge about football matters has remained in a state of massive stagnation.
When France won Croatia in the World Cup that year with a score of 4:2, he was absolutely giddy with joy. When I woke up the next morning, he excitedly launched into a detailed recount of the match, “Wasn’t Griezmann’s shot in the first half marvelous... oh my god France is insanely strong this massacre should totally be recorded in history shouldn’t it blah blah……”
After listening to him ramble on for half the day, I carefully asked him, “But doesn’t Croatia have Ronaldo?”
Subsequently… there wasn’t any more ‘subsequently’…
After hearing about this incident, my dorm leader, Choi Eun-Yeong, who is also a soccer fanatic, told me earnestly, “Love is truly great – he can actually bear to put up with you without considering a divorce.”

Taehyung never ever contributes to the housework at home. One day, I told him, “Look at the husbands of my friends! They do all the housework – from sweeping the floor to cooking meals to washing clothes – those husbands basically serve my friends as though they are a Queen! When you look at them, don’t you ever feel so ashamed and so torn apart by guilt that you’re unable to eat and sleep in peace?”
He didn’t even bother to look at me, and simply continued his house-wide search for his iPad.
I trailed along behind him, and continued nagging, “Also, look at the boyfriend of Hae-soo. He’s famous for being gentle and understanding; no matter how ridiculous Hae-soo’s tempers or requests are, he would always give in to her and listen to every single one of her demands. Additionally, he never ever forgets to prepare presents for every single one of their anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, Christmas, and even Children’s Day! Don’t you ever feel so ashamed and so torn apart by guilt that you’re unable to eat and sleep in peace?”
He continued focusing all his energies on locating his iPad.
Heartbroken, I continued my nagging, “And what about my husband? You only know how to bully me and mock me, and you’re never ever home because you’re always overseas on business trips. When the gas oven spoilt, you didn’t bother about it, and when the toilet became stuck, you didn’t bother to fix it. Last month when I was sick, you weren’t home, and merely instructed me to drink more water over the phone. Additionally, you don’t have a single romantic cell in you! Having been married so long, you haven’t even bothered to buy me any flowers. Ah, people always say that a man is sexiest when, despite the female’s punching and kicking, he simply looks at her silently before pulling her into his embrace. But you never ever allowed me to do this! Don’t you ever feel so ashamed and so torn apart by guilt that you’re unable to eat and sleep in peace?”
This fellow finally found his iPad in between the creases of the sofa, and finally turned back, glancing at me coldly. “I do allow you to punch and kick me, but would you dare? Hmm?” He stressed the last “hmm”, his eyes narrowing and becoming red in the process.
I was so frightened that I immediately admitted defeat, “O My Mighty King, please spare the life of the humble one, she would never dare to do such a thing.”
~ 12 ~
Him: “Are you very dissatisfied with your position in the family?”
Me: “That goes without saying.”
Him: “Well, how about this – just for today, you will be entitled to order me about as you please; you can instruct me to do anything, I’ll definitely obey your instructions without question.”
Me: “Really?”
Him: “Of course.”
Me: “You may begin by sweeping the floor.”
As such, he obediently proceeded to locate the broom and commenced sweeping. After observing his attempts to sweep the floor for a period of time, I was unable to resist my urge to comment. “You’re not sweeping thoroughly – the area under the bed must be swept too. Additionally, are you unable to see the thick amount of dust behind the door? What about the hair located in the crevices between our tiles? Are you going to ignore them?”
Him: “It’s already pretty clean.”
Me: “It’s not clean at all! There, there and there – you haven’t swept these places yet!”
Him: “That’s not true! Why don’t you demonstrate once for me to learn?”
I immediately proceeded to sweep the floor a second time, and managed to gather a pile of rubbish as expected. “Look! The evidence is right here!”
“Yup, you’re so impressive.”
I handed him another task. “You will be responsible for preparing today’s lunch!”
“Sure, what would you like to eat?”
“I want to eat broccoli fried with garlic.”
“I don’t know how to cook that.”
“Bacon with peas then.”
“I don’t know how to cook that either.”
“What about fish-flavored pork slices?”
“Nope.”
“What exactly do you know?”
“I know how to cook scrambled eggs with tomato.”
“……, besides that?”
“Eggs with tomato soup.”
“……”
I helped him assemble and prepare all the ingredients and carefully reminded him, “Be careful and don’t cut yourself. Remember to cut the tomatoes into thicker slices, and only commence frying when the oil has been heated. Additionally, remember to first fry the eggs before putting in the tomatoes.”
He was extremely impatient, “Alright, alright. I’ll remember so please head out.”
Before I had exited the kitchen for even twenty minutes, he started shouting for me. “Come in quick!”
The minute I opened the kitchen door, the fumes overwhelmed me to the point that I was unable to open my eyes. He hadn’t turned on the kitchen ventilator (most likely because he had no idea how to), and the black mass lying in the middle of the frying pan was completely unrecognizable. This fellow, when preparing scrambled eggs with tomato, had put in both soy sauce and vinegar instead of oil!!
“Why are the eggs charred?” He asked me innocently.
I experienced an instant mental breakdown, “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh you didn’t put any oil in the frying pan ahhhhhhhhhhh you spoilt my favorite frying pan ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!”
I swear, I’m never ever going to allow him to cook any meals in the future!!!!!!!

One day, we decided to eat Barbeque. As the waiter serving our table had extremely wide and lively eyes, I stared at him for a lengthy period of time. As a result, the youthful boy’s face started to redden, and he may even have started to curse me, the odd middle-aged lady, silently in his heart.
Under the pressure of my scorching gaze, his hands gave an involuntary shudder when he was attempting to change the grill for us. As a result, the prawn that we had barbequed dropped onto the floor. When he gave me an apologetic look, my playful nature surfaced and I immediately put on my sternest expression, “Compensate me for my prawn.”
Taehyung, who was seated right beside me, couldn’t bear to see me continue my nonsensical course of action and warned, “Don’t be too much.”
The young boy heaved a huge sigh of relief, and was about to escape when Taehyung coolly halted him, “Compensate me for my prawn.”

I was sitting with him in McDonald's, opposite two high school students who had been kissing for a period of time. Thus we proceeded to stare at them for a full twenty minutes, during which they blatantly continued their ‘activity’. Bemused, I wondered whether they would start suffocating if they continue kissing like that.
A certain fellow rolled his eyes and said, “If she was my daughter, I’d drag her home and smack her.”
I replied, “What do you know? Heroes are cultivated from their youth. If this was my son, just based on his advanced technique in dating girls, I’d give him an additional egg for dinner.”
A certain person was so aggravated he dragged me home and gave me a good smacking.
~ 15 ~
When we were dating, we often went on dates that lasted late into the night; as such, he often insisted on sending me home. As the mere thought of the long traveling time made my heart ache for him, I often refused his offer. Once, I even replied to him with great confidence, “Don’t worry, I’m the most nefarious hooligan for miles around.” Although I simply meant it as a passing comment, this fellow took it to heart and often used this incident to tease me.
Last weekend, he went to Gwangju. I was shopping with my best friend when he specially called me to remind me, “Don’t shop till too late, try to go home early and rest.”
“I know I know, don’t worry about me.”
“I’m not worried about you; I’m worrying for the rest of the hooligans for miles around.” He said slowly.
~16 ~
There’s another incident that relates to hooligans. Whenever people who aren’t familiar with us inquire about how we managed to get together, he would always lack the patience to explain the entire process to them. As a result, he would always give a short and simple answer, “Met a hooligan.”
The other party would then ask whether it was Y/N who had met the hooligan and whether Taehyung then decided to play the part of the hero who saved the beauty. He would neither agree nor disagree, and would always give the other party sufficient space to utilize his or her overactive imagination. Meanwhile, I would simply roll my eyes at him whilst sitting by the side.
When he reached home, he grinned from ear to ear and asked me, “Should I tell them that the person who had met a hooligan is actually me?” This fellow can really be terribly childish at times.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/N - So, new chapter guys.... Please enjoy the reading... ^_^ And one small question for you all... do you identify the friend of Taehyung from the 1st section of the story? If you able to... then comment it and don't come to kill me ^3^ _/
