40. Wish I Forgot

Taehyung's father, who just came after receiving a phone call, said, "Kids, I have something to announce and you're going to like it!" He smiled at his kids.

"What is it, Dad?" They asked excitedly. "Let's wait for Namjoon to come down."

"What is it, Dad?" A young Namjoon hopped off the stairs and jogged towards the dining table.

"Jungkook is going to be living with us from next week." He smiled at the children as they cheered in happiness.

'Jungkook is going to live with us from next week... It is exactly how it went in my dream.' Taehyung counted the exact year with his little fingers.

"Mom! Dad! I can tell the future!" He excitedly told them. They tilted their head in confusion.

"I had a dream and Kook-ie comes to live with us exactly a week from now and he becomes a singer!" His dad's eyes widened.

"How did you know that he was coming to train to become a singer?" His mom looked at her husband in slight shock.

"I told you, dad! I had a dream and it showed me like twenty years into the future!" He smiled brightly.

"He must've heard it when I was speaking with brother." His father whispered to his wife, both of them laughed it off.

"Oh! Does Tae see future? Do we still look good in the future?" His mom smiled and asked Taehyung. He nodded in response.

The parents did not take him seriously and he realised that, but it didn't bother him much.

After they ate, Taehyung went back to his room and sat with a notebook and a pencil, "I have to note down everything I can. If this is the future then it would help me with many decisions." He jotted down all he remembered.

"Then I go to the party... Why can't I remember a few things?" He scratched his head and as his hand continued to write he looked the notebook in awe.

He read the readings in his book, "And then after a while when we thought Oliver gave up we heard something from his friend that...what?" Taehyung tried to read the illegible writing.

"Uhm...accident...what? I give up!" Taehyung shut his book and went to bed.

A week has passed too quickly and as for Taehyung, he still couldn't comprehend things properly. Every time he closed and opened his eyes he felt time pass very differently. He brushed it off thinking it was because he knew too much due to the dream. 

Jungkook made an appearance and he looked very much younger than what Taehyung remembers him. Taehyung felt happy after talking and playing with him. 

Jungkook went to sleep after a while making Taehyung bored. So he decided to go to the park.

He happily hummed as he made his way to the park. "Tae!" He heard a squeaky voice call for him. He turned towards the source of the sound.

"Jinwoo-ya!" His mouth automatically uttered. Shin Jinwoo. The last memory from from his dream.

Taehyung watched as Jinwoo jumped towards him and pull him towards the seesaw. They played joyously till the sun set. Both of them chatted on the swings calmly.

"Yeah." Jinwoo laughed heartfully. Taehyung remembered liking him laughing like this. It felt nice. "My mom and dad still think that I'm incompetent." His smiled sadly.

Taehyung's smile slowly disappeared as he heard his friend speak. "They think I prefer wasting all the resources they provide to me than being useful and accomplish." He looked at Taehyung guiltily, "Sorry Taehyung. I keep troubling you with my complaining." 

"No! You never troubled me Jinwoo." He jumped from the swing and jogged to him.

"But what can I do. I'm only five." He heard Jinwoo sniffle and try to stop his tears from falling. It reminded him of feelings he wanted to forget. He felt voices trying to take him.

"Stop! Please!" He covered his ears and yelled.

"He's awake!" What? He slowly opened his eyes, he saw a happy Jennie looking at him. The adult Jennie and not the kid Jennie.

"I'm dying!" He exclaimed before passing out.

"Oh dang. He just fainted again." Jennie looked at the others in the room.

Heylo! How was your day?
