Him & I - The Two Of Us

Hopes - Chapter 35

(Taehyung POV)

"Hi Taehyung!" I heard her voice as I looked up and smiled.

"Hey. Get in" she nod her head and got inside the car as I started driving again to the restaurant.

"Y/n didn't come with you?" She ask me as I sigh quietly.

It has been a long day for me.

It has always been this way. But isn't that exactly what makes it a lot more nicer and warmer to be perceived by someone you love.

I used to wonder why eomma used to wait til late for appa when he was at work. She would tell me to sleep but would wait for him no matter how late it was.

But now that I'm older. I understand her and appa's feelings.

There are certain things that you can learn only as you get older.

"She was busy, had plans. She said she would definitely come the next time" I lied.

"Oh it's alright." She smiled making me nod.

"Are you staying at a hotel?" I asked her as she hummed.

"Yeah, I've been looking for apartments. Will buy one once I find it" She tell me making me nod.

It must be expensive.

She isn't very rich. Had a decent job in the states. We were in touch so I know.

I wanted to offer staying at our home, but I knew y/n wouldn't like the idea so I didn't say anything.

I'm not the only one who lives in there, y/n has more rights on the house than me. She's more at home than I am.

"do you want me to talk to someone? Maybe my associates or friends can help" I offer as she looked at me.

"That would be a great help, Tae." She smiled as I nod.

I swiftly parked the car and walked out of the car as Mikyung got out of the car as well.

We took our seats on one of the booths and sat opposite to each other.

I watched her quietly as she looked at the menu and ordered one of the dishes. She looked really excited.

Probably because it's her first time in Korea. Despite her father being a Korean, she never visit in Korea.

I can understand how excited she is because she used to ask me a lot about Korea and Korean people when we were younger.

And I would always end up telling her about y/n.

A faint chuckle left my mouth as she avert her attention to me.

"What is it that got you so entertained, Kim Taehyung" she question, palming her chin as she gave me a soft smile.

"Just some old memories" I rolled my eyes before smiling back at her.

"so, tell me about everything here" she speak making me chuckle. She is really happy to be in Korea, "Tell me what life has been like. About you and y/n" she wiggled her brows making me smile.

"We're good. I'm starting my own business soon" I tell her as she gave me a warm smile.

"I'm happy for you. I know you always wanted to be a businessman. I'm here to support you always, okay?" she gave me a thumbs up as I see her furrowing her eyebrows, "What do they say it here...?"

"Hmm?" I look at her as she think hard.

"Fighting!" she laugh making me smile.

"Right. Fighting" I let out a breathy laugh.
