Well, Taeil is the friend who brought us all together. With the way I was talking about Johnny, you must've thought he was my only friend, right? But guess what? I have lots of friends, ha!
He is Johnny's roommate, but I thought he was on a business trip?

As I'm staring at his gorgeous undercut, he opens the door and let us in. He looks so good. I love my friends.
He is also very good with kids, and Adya immediately loves him. I'm so jealous, but at the same time, I struggle a lot with her so at least she's not annoying me.

We are now sat in the living room, and Taeil explain to us that he came back because he knows Johnny's not gonna survive for long in this state, and also because his business trip was ending and leaving one or two days earlier wasn't a problem. He won't be able to take care of Adya during the day, though, so I'll still be stuck with her. Sigh. Who do people have jobs?? Capitalism... CAPITALiSM.

We spend the evening together, eating and watching some Barbie movies as the girl wishes (they're surprisingly very nice I might buy some DVDs). The time comes for me to leave, I'm not spending the night here when I have my own place, and as I say goodbye to Adya, a strange feeling fills my heart. I somehow grew attached to that kid. She's just too cute.

But alas, I have to go back to my flat, alone, and using the now sketchy bus. Funny how things switch once the sun is down. I try to stay focused, as you never know who might be dangerous. I'm not trying to get kidnapped you know. Taeil could've driven me home but I refused. He has to go to work tomorrow, he needs to put Adya to bed, and I'm a grown man! I don't depend on anyone (except the government and the bus driver).

I almost fall asleep while listening to music.

I get off the bus at my stop; I can't help but appreciate the calmness and beauty of the sleeping city. No one's outside, it's dark, fresh and silent. These late night walks hit different, especially as you grow. The anxiety of not getting home in time, worrying your parents, disappears and you can take your time to appreciate the simple things, like the sound of your feet hitting the ground. I wish it could be like this forever, but I sadly reached my destination. Maybe it is the ephemeral nature of these events that make them so enjoyable? Perhaps, good things are meant to be enjoyed in small quantities, so that they retain their specialness? I'm unsure of if this is the view of life I want to have, but it does bring some comfort. Nothing's going to last. Nothing's going to last! The good things, and the bad things. Why worry so much then? Happiness, just like pain is temporary. But it's ok. I'm ok.

This was a filler episode. That's why he's doing the philosopher now, I just didn't know what to write. Next episode is gonna be the character introduction because I forgot to do one. I'm just gonna do the members we've seen so far, I'll do another one later with more updates. They will be scattered through the fic like checkpoints. When enough new characters are introduced.
