Just a few streets away, Namjoon and Taehyung were chasing Susan on Namjoon's bicycle.

"Hey, Ponytail," Namjoon called, making Susan stop walking and turn back to them. "My name is Susan and you knew it," she said, throwing some killing glares at Namjoon and her eyes softened when she saw Taehyung at the back, peeking at her. "Okay, Susan. S U S A N," as Namjoon said, he stopped right in front of her and Taehyung was already getting off the bicycle.

Once Taehyung and Susan shared eye contact, Susan couldn't help but clutch her side bag so tight at the sight of him. "Go, Taetae. I'm here," Namjoon whispered to him, waiting for him to make a move at the girl. He wasn't pushing him or forcing him to do since Taehyung doesn't like it when someone orders him.

Taehyung stepped up towards Susan, who was licking her lips as all of a sudden her throat seemed to be dried and empty and she was being desperate for something she doesn't even understand. "Hey," Susan started, waving her hand to Taehyung who raised his doe eyes and looked at the girl. Namjoon backed off, walking away from them, giving them some space. Parking his bicycle he just looked at them from afar and they seemed to stand close and start talking about something.

"I-I'm sorry," Taehyung said and his voice reciprocated his genuineness. Susan giggled, cannot describe how cute he looked while apologising but it took him so long to say it. Years after years she waited for him and here he was, right in front of her. She felt so many emotions but everything was shown with a huge smile on her lips and warm tears in her eyes. She felt sorry for those guys who came back after her and confessed their feelings to her but she couldn't accept any of them just because of this boy.

And after all these years, he was here but she wants to know if that was to only apologise or grow their relationship from now on. "There's a convenience store nearby, do you want to come with me?" she questioned, breaking the silence and he looked up at her again. Taehyung hesitated as he looked back at Namjoon who raised his eyebrows at the boy. "What, Taehyung ah?" Namjoon asked, and Susan replied back to him.

"Can I borrow him for some time? I will take him back to your house after an hour or so" Susan said, and Namjoon sighed before looking at Taehyung. "If you wanna go, go with her," Namjoon said confidently as Taehyung has a wristwatch with a GPS in it. He always makes Taehyung wear it whether he was with him or not. He was a cop anyways.

Taehyung put his hands inside his pockets before walking towards the store and Namjoon sighed before shaking his head. Susan smiled wide and she encircled his arm with hers, walking along with Taehyung. Taking his bicycle, Namjoon left the place as he wants to make sure Jimin has closed the cafe already.

"Do you mind if I do this?" Susan asked, as her arm was linked with his. Taehyung just shook his head as a no and pressed his lips, his bread cheeks grew big as well. She couldn't help but poke his cute cheek while Taehyung side-eyed her actions. "There was a meeting in our school last week, did you go there? We were invited actually." Susan spoke, making him stare at her.

"Y-Yeah, I actually went with Jimin. We were there for 4 hours and they offered us ice cream and food. There was a new wall paint on the left side of every class. They were beautiful" Taehyung said, and she nodded, speaking further. "I was there too, just asked," she stuck her tongue out, staring at him. She asked him random questions and he didn't mind answering every single question of hers. She knew the answers for a few of them already and didn't know for a few of them. She asked him as if she knew nothing about him and he was answering with so much enthusiasm.

Susan loved the way that Taehyung was answering not leaving any single detail and she loved the way how his pout lips would form every time he says something that was so close to his heart. She loves everything about him and she was falling for him more and more. Yes, he was a special child and sometimes he couldn't react the way he should, but in the whole world, he would be the first person to listen to someone's concern and cry whenever someone was hurt.
