I cried on my way home. I wanted so much to stay and wait for him to wake up. I want to be there when he opens his eyes. But I can't. I can't because if I stayed today, I would stay tomorrow and then forever. I have to move on, I have to forget.
"Where is the grocery?" My mother asked when I entered the house.
"I am sorry, mom. The shop was closed." I said absent-mindedly and went to my bedroom.
"You were gone for half a day and came back empty-handed?!" She yelled from the kitchen.
I gave you money to buy..."
"I know a bottle of chardonnay! I am going!" I yelled back and with a slam of the door left the house.
* * *
The store was almost empty. Maybe because they were about to close in 30 minutes.
I walked the aisles of the store with my shopping cart, thinking about everything else than shopping when I was interrupted from thinking when my cart bumped into someone else's.
"Sorry."
"Are you blind?" I said alongside with owner of the other cart. I was fixing my things in my cart when I heard a deep familiar voice.
"Jin?" I heard my name and lifted my eyes to the owner of the other shopping cart.
"Taehyung? Oh, I am sorry." I began to stutter when I saw my employer.
"It is ok. I was really like a blind man. But my mind is occupied by someone these days, so I completely lost my attention and we ended up like this." Taeyhung said and smiled embarrassed.
"Oh, it's completely ok! It was my bad! I walked around absent-minded as if I was alone here." I was explaining while fixing his groceries in his shopping cart.
"It's really okay, Jin," Taehyung said and stopped me by grabbing my hands into his.
"I-I have to go. They are closing in 15 minutes." I said and softly pulled my hands away from him.
"You are right. Race to the cash registers?" He asked and before I could respond, he ran off. I followed him quickly and caught up with him.
"Are you crazy? They will throw us out!" I laughed while running.
"Yes. That's why it's fun!" Taehyhung shouted and speeded up.
* * * *
"Thanks, I haven't laughed like this for a while," I said and Taehyung gave me only a smile in return. We carried our shop bags to the parking lot and had to separate.
"See you tomorrow, Jin." He said and was about to turn and go to his car.
"What?" I asked and stared at him completely lost. Is this invitation on a date? Isn't he a little bit hurry? And isn't unprofessional to date your boss? Thoughts were running in my head when he turned to me again.
"In work. It's gonna be your first day." He said a little confused.
"Oh,-" I stood there speechless. Of course, I got the job. My expression was probably showing more emotions than I wanted.
"Don't worry, I will teach you everything. But please, don't be late. I hate it." Taehyung said with a little serious smile. Then, he just left.* * * *
"Mom! I am home!" I yelled when I got in the house and closed the door behind me. No one responded. She probably blacked out on the couch in the living room. I took bags with goods to the kitchen, I absent-mindedly went to the fridge and put chardonnay inside.
"Did our breakup lead you to alcoholism?" A deep voice asked and I almost shit my pants. I stood beside the opened fridge and stared at the smirking Jungkook who was sitting in a chair by the dining table in our kitchen.
