Taehyung's POV

When my morning alarm begins to resound from my phone to wake me up, I turn it off by habit, my gaze not straying away from my laptop currently settled on the table as I finish some edits.

As it often happens, I opened my eyes a few hours earlier than my alarm despite my going to bed later last night, so I decided to get some work done before enjoying my day off by going to my favorite coffee shop.

With a finger pushing my glasses up my nose, I go over the task sheet one last time to make sure that the logo I've been working on for a week now fits the request.

The owner of a pretty big corporation came to me two weeks ago to rework on their logo's image, their wish being to make it into something that would attract the young generation's attention more easily, they wanted to be remembered by sticking out of the lot, by ending an era of blending in with the others.

I didn't hesitate to accept the job since it fits right in with the things that I like to do. I immediately offered to go with more vibrant colours as it's the most important factor to consider when hoping to grab everyone's gaze and they agreed right away, which was a relief in itself.

People don't always realize the impact of colours on the subconscious. Colours can be linked to so many things in the span of a second, so many emotions that will either be soothed or worsened, angered or cheered up.

Colours can affect personalities, moods, ambiances, memories, and I love playing with that tool of power, it makes me feel in control, a tool that speaks no words, and yet will say so much.

The colours you dress yourself with, the colours you surround yourself with, they all speak in your stead, without you even being aware of it and for those who know this silent language well, it makes reading others a lot easier.

I push my laptop aside once satisfied with the final result, my thoughts making my mind drift to that girl, who I haven't been able to forget even though I haven't seen her for a couple of days. There's something about her that makes her different from others and it's making me curious.

And Jimin... that explosive man is quite the character, but it's also fascinating. I am not known to express myself in such a loud manner, yet he does it without even worrying about the impact it can have on the people around him. I wish I lacked that much self-awareness sometimes.

Not to forget Seokjin, the shop owner who always treats me with respect, always with a smile and a pleasant voice, no matter how distant I may seem, a facade that I can't help but wear whenever I'm with people who I'm not particularly close with.

They're a trio of people that makes me curious, and it makes me wonder about what would happen if I were to try to open up with them. Showing my vulnerability to others sometimes comes with trouble, trouble I would rather avoid, but for a reason that I can't understand at the moment, I get the feeling that they would be worth it.

With a smile on my lips, I leave behind my work to reach the entrance where I grab a light coat and my shoes from the closet, something that I can easily remove when the weather becomes warmer throughout the day.

Autumn is undoubtedly coming our way, something that makes me happy because I love witnessing as the trees change in colours, as the leaves become a carpet of red beneath my feet before hiding under a layer of snow. The transition never fails to fill my mind with inspiration, never fails to make my world look as if I'm staring at it with pink glasses - mom always says that I'm too easy to please, but is that a bad thing?

Once ready to head out, I grab my bag before stepping into the fresh morning air, then lock the door behind me to begin my walk towards the coffee shop a couple of blocks away from here.
