First Love || WheeTae

"It's been a long time Wheein! Oh, you've got a handsome boy beside you."

We've been here in the market and all i do is stare at the people who passed me by. Wheein drag me to the stall of vegetables and fruits saying that this man will buy all of our goods since Wheein is his supplier.

"It's nice to meet you again, Mr. Yu! By the way, this is my friend Taehyung. I've been helping him to get a bus ticket for Busan."

I smile and bow at the man whom Wheein called 'Mr. Yu' and introduced my self.

"Good morning, Sir! I'm Kim Taehyung, it's my pleasure to meet a kind man like you."

I hear the both of them laugh at me so i look at them cluelessly. Did i say something funny?

"Oh! I like this boy, Wheein."

He taps my shoulder so i smile at him again and Wheein go beside me. She whisper something to me before she tail Mr. Yu towards the stall.

"Just be nice at him, he will help you a big time."

That's what she whisper at me so i composed myself before entering his stall. Okay, i just need to be myself.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Yu! Maybe we'll be back here next month."

We both bow at him after recieving the money he gave for the expenses. He just smile and tap our shoulders before getting something in his pocket.

"Just go here whenever you have some supplies. Here, i'll give the both of you a tip for being so hard-working. And i hope this will help you to get your ticket, Taehyung."

He give us an amount of money as a tip and i can't be more grateful! He's so kind and probably a bubbly guy. 

"I want to reject this one, Mr. Yu. But since i'm helping Taehyung to get his ticket, i'll just take it. Thank you so much, we'll get going!!"

We bow to him again and he just laugh before he wave his hand. I also wave my goodbye to him before Wheein and i walk out from his stall.

"Do you want to eat before we go back to our house?"

I hear Wheein asks as we both wander around the market. The market gets crowder as the costumers buy some goods. I hold Wheein's hand so i won't lost my way. I can feel the warmth of her hand that makes me more comfortable with her.

"Let's eat first. I'm sure you're already hungry, am i right?"

I look at her as she laugh and nod slowly. We both head towards a noodle stall that is not that crowded. It's also quiet here and a little more cheap than the others.

She lets go of my hand and that's when i realized that i've been holding her since earlier. I can feel my face heated up by the thought of it. What's wrong with me today?

"The noodles here are incredible! I always eat here when i'm going to the market and i can say that i'm a top costumer here."

Wheein brags as we sit down on the wooden chair while waiting for the waiter to approach us. I put my arms on the table and lean my chin into my palm. I stare at Wheein who is looking at the crowd outside. For the first time since i knew her, i notice that there is a mole under her left eye. Woah, that's really attractive-

"What's your order, Ma'am and Sir?"

The waitress suddenly speak up and that cut my stare to Wheein. I clear my throat before looking at Wheein who is looking at the menu.

"I will also order the what you'll order."

I whisper at Wheein. She just nod and talk to the waitress. Since i'm new here, i don't know what to order here. And since i trust Wheein, i know she'll order the tastiest food here.

"The food will serve after 10 minutes."

The waitress bow before leaving us. I look again at Wheein who is napping at the table. Is she sleepy?

"Wheein.."

I also lie my head on the table, near to her head. I play with her hair as we waited for our foods.

"Hmm?"

She just hum but didn't look at me. I continue to play with her hair since i know that she love this thing.

"Are you sleepy?"

I ask and i can see her slowly nodding. 

"Then let's eat quickly so we can go to our house quickly and we can get some good sleep."

She just nod and hum again. I continue to play with her hair since she's taking a little nap. I also stare at nowhere and my thoughts are flying.

"Here's your order!"

The waitress suddenly spoke up that make me wake up from my nonsense thoughts. Wheein also wake up and scratch her eyes. 

The waitress put down our foods on our table as we both wait for her to finish.

"Enjoy your food!"

She bows before walking away from us. We both pick up our own chopsticks, the both of us became quiet as we start eating. 

"That was a good food! How i wish we can bring some of it to Jiyong."

I say as we walk heading to our house. Wheein looks like her energy drains. I'm sure she is exhausted than me since she sleep late and woke up earlier before me. She also cook some breakfast for Jiyong and do some household chores.

I walk towards her and stop infront of her. She looks at me cluelessly so i kneeled down and turn my back on her.

"I know you're tired. Ride on my back, i'll carry you and you can sleep while we're heading back."

I can hear her sigh and i know that after her sigh, she will reject this again. But i won't let her.

"Tae, i'm okay. You don't need-"

"Shh. Just ride on me, this is my treat for you for helping me. Go."

She just smack my head before riding on my back. I carefully carry her as i start walking. We've got a long way here.
