"Why do we have to walk and they get to accelerate in those nice looking wagons?"

"Why do we have to walk and they get to accelerate in those nice looking wagons?"

"Just keep walking, the convenience store isn't that far." Jisoo turned around once just to make sure that the two 'babies' who were tagging behind were still with her. Her cute shih poo was wagging his cotton ball tail while sprinting alongside the tall alien who looked quite out of breath with just a mile long walk. They had one and a half more to go.

"Is it because your owner is too much of a cheap stake Dalgomie~"

*Woof woof!*

"DALGOMIE- You- you both are AWFUL!" She could hear the snickering and the 'oops' murmured by Taehyung, the tolerance scale of hers clearly reaching its limit. Clenching her fists on her sides and a new determination fueling her stamina, Jisoo started increasing her pace even more, the other two jogging a little to catch up with her.

"Does she usually walk this fast?"

*Woof!*

"For such a small creature, she clearly does possess a lot of strength."

"I CAN STILL HEAR YOU TAEHYUNG!"

For Taehyung, the journey from Amare to Earth was uneventful. A handful of wind gushes, his precious space skis had fortunately not been damaged much, it was fun skiing around in the vacuum before he decided to explore and do his investigatory project on the blue planet. The school had told him to think out of the box and he went out of the planet.

First few days on the strange land was definitely worth talking about. It was clear the people were quite backwards compared to his homeland, there was a lot for these humans to learn. Development status was also not very advanced, these wagons running on the roads were declared out of use almost a decade ago back there. But still, they intrigued Taehyung so much, these humans were extremely complex, with their mixtures of emotions that he'd never even heard of.

And a notable mention was Kim Jisoo.

After stuffing his space skis in his intangible sack, Taehyung had marked on an interesting trip around the first place he had arrived at : Paris. Oh là là, quelle beauté! 

He couldn't really deny how much beauty the artistic abilities of these humans held, the creativity was magnificent. Of course, he couldn't appreciate all of its beauty as he had to escape the city of lights due to a small...explosion he had caused because of him getting overwhelmed. Well that's a story for another day.

Miami was a good choice after all that chasing he had encountered. It was more vibrant and on the musical side of things and the curious alien was all up for it. Well until he realized that he couldn't just live on stolen cocktails and stale fries. His 'harmless' little tricks were apparently too danger posing for these humans too, so that was another reason why he felt the need to get out of there as well.

His next stop was Seoul which seemed to be the most fruitful one. He had decided on doing something different which would make his visit here worthwhile. To live with a human was both a risky yet exciting idea he had and having lived amongst humans for close than a fortnight, he thought he was ready to reveal himself to a specifically chosen human. And for that, he'd thought to choose a quieter place, the city life making his ears bleed and brain on high alert.

And that's how he ended up on the countryside, roaming around with his body shutting down due to little to no food intake since the past two days. Taehyung had to analyze the faces of the humans in order to gather information about them, from their date of birth to their preferred side to sleep on bed, but it required a lot of energy and practice, both of which he had none. He should've clearly listened more to his professors as he could've skipped this getting- to- know-people- by- stalking phase.

But then when he had almost given up, his space ski placed carefully in the sack hanging over his shoulder, calling out to him to return back home, that was when he saw her : Kim Jisoo walking her dog along the green pastures while she walked on the freshly put gravel road. He was sitting on the bench road and saw her pass him by, carefully letting her pet tread on the freshly cut grass while she jogged on the hard poking gravel. Of course he should know how difficult it was to walk on that, Taehyung had walked on it for seemingly hours and now here was this woman, walking on it with her posture not faltering for even a minute, looking over at her little pet and smiling. Oh that smile..

Taehyung knew he just had to know this woman. This strange specimen with seemingly godly powers bestowed upon her. And the best way, he thought, was to just simply observe her.

The next day and the day after that were all the same, she would show up with her dog, letting him skip along the field while she stomped on the unmade road and would pass Taehyung by without a second glance. But Taehyung's glances were filled with just her.

"What flavor do you want?"

"Huh?" He looked at her with confusion as she pointed at a what looked like a big freezing box with colorful packets of something he wasn't sure of. It seemed like he had zoned out for a while.

"Ice cream? It's like a uh how do I explain this to you, well it's a frozen sweet with milk and...." Taehyung had stopped listening to her explanation and instead concentrated on the way the little mole under her eye disappeared as she was speaking with her eyes wide. The small dimple that formed on one side of her cheek when she pointed at  flavor she loved and how she covered up that excited smile with a forced guttural cough.

"So? I'm supposing you don't want one. Good for my wallet honestly-"

"Noooo, I do want one ice beam~"

"Ice cream, Taehyung, ice cream." Jisoo continued with a long sigh, "which one then?"

"Uhhh that one! That pink looks good." Taehyung's eyes gleamed with fascination as Jisoo slid open the refrigerating machine and grabbed the watermelon ice cream he'd pointed at. With a contented sigh, he held the ice cold packet in his hand while the other payed for their entire expenditure.

"Are you gonna keep sniffing it like Dalgom or-"

"It's called savoring the taste human."
