Chapter 47

Taehyung sighed as he walked through the streets of Seoul. He looked at his watch for the date. It would be a few weeks before he had to leave Seoul to travel again with his team. And it was time for practice too.

He walked to a park and picked up an idle basketball. He looked around and didn't spot anyone.

He bounced it a few times and then shot. It went in without touching the rim.

He ran after the ball and picked it up again.

The wind brushed past him as he bounced it a few times again.

Hyeri ah...

I miss you...

A lot...

...

It was because he was traveling too much that he didn't have time for her. It was because he was always playing basketball that he didn't have the time to see her or talk to her. It was because of basketball that always led them into arguments.

But it was too late to give everything up.

He was offered a place as in Seoul's basketball team. If they had offered it to him earlier, he didn't have to move around a lot...or break up with Hyeri.

But he wasn't as strong as Jeon Jungkook.

He could never do what his best friend did.

Which was to give up basketball.

It was his life, his future, his fate. Nothing else. He would give up everything for it...because he loved it.

And that was also the reason for their breakup. Hyeri needed to be number 1 in his life...and he couldn't do it. It was his fault...but...that was the way it had to be.

No matter how much he loved her...it was fated that they would never be together again now.

"Excuse me Ahjuussi."

...

......

...

Did someone just call him Ahjuussi?!?!?!?!

He turned suddenly to see a shorter girl standing close to him. She had a really cute face and very nice eyes. She was maybe two heads shorter than him with beautiful long brown hair.

Her face suddenly turned bright red when he had turned to look at her. She gave a small smile and her cute dimples showed up.

"Sorry," she said, giving a small bow. "From the back...you look kinda..."

She didn't finish but he knew what she was going to say anyways.

He started laughing and she looked up at him curiously.

"Heh...sorry," Taehyung said. "Is there...something I can help you with?"

"Actually, I was wondering if I could get my basketball back?" she said hesitantly.

"This is yours?" he asked, raising his brow.

"Eung, Sunbae..."

"What's your name?"

She looked at him and then put her hands in her pocket. "Yoo Jisoo."

"How old are you?"

...

"19."

"School?"

"SeoulUniversity. Are you planning to stalk me and kidnap me?" she asked curiously.
