Virtual Reality || A Taekook Fanfic

2.

I'm Kim Taehyung, an extraordinary man, just like everyone else. I don't come from a very rich family, hence, I've to work, just like other normal people. The only difference is that I'm an 18-year-old man. Yes, yes, I know. I should be studying my ass out at this age, but I can't. My parents kicked me out of the house at the age of 14. You must've guessed the reason why. In case some of you are clueless, I'll tell you. I'm gay. Usually, South Korean families do not like their children being a part of the LGBTQ+ community. The same thing happened to me. I got thrown out of the house at the age of 14.

Since I earn so little by doing the pizza delivery... wait, I didn't tell you that I work as a pizza delivery guy, did I? Okay, so here it is, I work as a pizza delivery guy for Domino's. The work is kinda really stressful since I work almost 24 hours a day. Sometimes I crack under the pressure, and I feel like everything will fall apart.

"Hello. I've got order 23098." I tell the man tiredly.

He smiles at me, takes the bag, gives me a tip, and disappears back into his apartment. I sigh and head out of the condo. It's so frustrating, doing this every day. Treated like you're scum on their shoe, and that they can't put themselves below you. Most of the time, they won't even give you a tip.

I head out, take my motorbike, and hit the road again. Going around Seoul in the middle of the night is very tiring, and the city's always lit up. Part of the reason why I can never sleep at night.

Thankfully, the radio's still on, and I press play. I know it's dumb, listening to stupid news, weather forecasts, and listening to crappy music. But it does calm me somehow, and I relax as I hear a woman beginning to tell the news of the weather.

"It seems cloudy, with a seventy percent chance it's going to rain near Seoul. Now, onto the hottest celebrity news of today..." the woman says.

I groan. I hate listening to celebrity news. Damn it, everyone's just as interesting as they are. Why do people have to be so obsessed with how celebrities live? They're not exactly angels, and they hog attention.

It isn't very pleasant.

"Jeon Jungkook, the brand ambassador for Gucci, has once again pulled off an impressive collection this winter. His collection has now surpassed that of Chanel and Dior, and Gucci is on its way to becoming the most influential fashion brand in Asia."

Jeon Jungkook. That name is always on the news. He always stunned people with his clothes. I know how he looks since he's on half of the public boards of Seoul. Thanks to him, everyone's having a Gucci craze: running to the malls whenever he's put out a new collection, bidding until crazy prices to get a hand-designed accessory by him... the list is long.

It's crazy what people will do to be famous.

(a/n: How was it?!

Stay safe, and take care!
