💜: Where's my angel; I'm sick and tired of everything. Someone come and save myself, cuz I can't take it anymore.

Daydreaming is like a drug. No matter where you are or what state of mind you're in; the world which is constantly in motion inside your head, can just cut your roots from the reality and make you float in clouds. This is the most beautiful and versatile form of creativity where an artist; with just the power of their mind, can give life to a whole another reality; a paracosm; where they are the rule makers as well as breakers; living through multiple layers of experience however they want and as many times as they want to.

Ultimately there's this deduction, just because it's happening inside the head, doesn't mean it's not real.

Creating impossible scenarios inside his head was getting fun and tempting, but apparently, a deja vu was comically strong enough pull Taehyung out of his trance.

"......I thought he was gonna get rejected, you know! I mean, Jin hyung was legit shooting lazers from his eyes! And you wouldn't believe how a kamikaze police officer like Namjoon hyung becomes a total drenched puppy dog in front of him.... Well, his soon to be spouse now!"

Taehyung has completely memorized those words as the torturous result of listening it over and over again since morning. There wasn't a single person Jungkook hasn't blessed the ears of, with the grand proposal story and each time Taehyung heard him say that, the real event was gradually erasing from his head, being replaced by the dramatic description the damn bunny made up.

He should have recorded it. Lol.

"Taetae! Come and help me with the tables here!"

Taehyung sighed for the umpteenth time; the joyous surroundings overwhelming his senses once again. Everyone looked so peppy with the business they were engaged to; finding some muse of their own in all of that. He was extremely happy with his brother's wedding that was about to take place today; and with the help of it, he wanted to second handedly live through that happiness himself. Because his own happiness was an incomplete story that had no chance to be picked up again or rewritten.

"Go, Taetae....!" Someone said following a sweet laughter.

There is it. The hopeful spinoff.

"Not you too!"

Taehyung turned his head towards Samantha who was now giving her hands to the flower arrangement. He gave her a kind smile and walked towards Jimin, smiling on his own. They say, if you're feeling a little worn out or exhausted, a self induced smile can take it all away.

It had taken him three days of Jimin's constant butt kicking before he finally asked Samantha out. He still remembered the girl's reaction when he stood in front of her all serious, like he has discovered the medicine of cancer. He had taken her outside, talked about the day and the patient for a straight awkward minute and when the sharp, chubby, cutest girl bluntly iquired him if he's trying to ask her out; he knew he will carry the embarrassment till the end of his life of how fast he had answered 'yes' to that. She didn't get excited right away or made it more awkward by feeling shy or weird; which gave Taehyung one more reason to like her. She had questioned, very politely, about his true feelings regarding this matter - if he's genuinely getting into this or just doing pity on her and Taehyung was amused by her high emotional intelligence. He didn't let the hesitation inside him slip out because he believed he would be able to get over it looking at the girl's face; and he had told her that he is willing to know her better as a person, maybe even fall in love eventually.

Again.

Or more like; overlapping.

"You two getting along?" Jimin asked, handing him the other two corners of the table cloth.
