He smiled a little as he watched the unknown stranger stepped into his apartment.

"Sleep tight, stranger."

━━

"I wish I could escape it, I don't wanna fake it. Wish I could erase it, make your heart believe. But I'm a bad liar."

-bad liar 🍂

❥❥❥

It was another drunk night of taehyung, when he decided to visit the cafe.

He ordered something light, as he drank that and lied his head on the table. He was half sleepy.

"Excuse me, sir? Are you okay?" Jeongguk asked to the drunk man getting nothing in return.

"Hello? Um if you don't mind, it's too late. Manager's not here so I allowed you to stay a little longer. But I can't manage more, I'm afraid I'll get caught. Hope you can unders-"

*yawn*

Jeongguk spoke a whole parah only for him to give him a yawn and nothing other than that.

"Come on!!"

He tried waking him up while tapping his shoulder. That might've did something as he can hear him mumble in his sleep.

You should remember that taehyung is not THAT drunk. Just a little. He's just sleepy most of the time because he finds it difficult to sleep in his apartment. A lot of tiredness from work, a little alcohol and no literal rest and sleep makes him behave like this.

"It's all my fault..I shouldn't have..no..what did I do? I don't even know.. it's fate... I hate this...I love you..But I don't wanna hurt you.. I'm sorry V.. Kookie tae's sorry..Shit I'm going craaaazyy.."

Jeongguk heard him mumble and he felt so bad for him.

"What made him so miserable?"

He looked at him in pity and sorrow. He knew the other was stuck in something bad, but he didn't know what it was.

It's such a heartbreaking sight.

"I wish I could help."

❥❥❥

It has become a regular thing for taehyung to visit the cafe. He felt comfortable there.

And it's a regular thing for Jeongguk to bother him. They started to talk- Jeongguk started to talk with him to be exact. He was drawn to the cracks in his heart and the loneliness of taehyung.

Because of which, taehyung started to talk with him too, though not that much. He used to avoid him most of the time. Even though tae won't talk much, Jeongguk would annoy him so much that he had to talk with gguk.

As time went by, they became good friends.

It was one of those days. Taehyung sat at his usual corner seat by the window, late at night, waiting for his order.

"Excuse me, Mr. Handsome- even though you look like shit a little bit for today, here's your order."

"When will you stop annoying me?"

"When will YOU stop coming to our cafe late at night, drunk?"

"I can't really help it...But hey, tonight I'm not drunk!"
