Inside Kim's mansion
Y/n inhaled the fresh morning air and sauntered towards the backyard. Cherry blossom trees stood tall, their delicate petals cascading like confetti in the wind. She flitted from stone to stone, while humming a melody. With a small smile on her face, she entered the bathroom.
Closing the door with her still sleepy senses, she turned around to do her morning routine, but a shriek escaped her mouth when her eyes traced the back of a figure with a hoodie on, standing in front of her.
"Aaagghhhhh!"
The man with a hoodie flinched and turned his head back, gazed at her over his shoulder, and screamed in response.
His deep-voiced scream out turned Y/n to scream again in synchronization.
She quickly got out of the bathroom and ran towards Jin's room.
When Y/n hurriedly entered the room, she found Jin already awoken from the possible screams he heard. A frown was plastered on his sleepy features as if questioning her sanity.
"Hyung?"
Before she could speak, the man with a low-pitched voice spoke from the outside as he stepped closer inside the room.
"Taehyung-ah?" SeokJin peered through his sleepy gaze and rolled his eyes before giving both of them a side glare.
Y/n smiled awkwardly, "Looks like... he's y-your pal."
Jin sighed and dropped his body on his cosy mattress again before he proceeded to yell at the two of them. Sounding precisely pissed from his interrupted slumber.
"GET OUT!"
Y/n and Taehyung joggled their way out of his room, not forgetting to close the door behind them, they walked down the two steps wooden stairs together and reached the front yard.
The sun cast a warm golden glow upon the verdant yard as their shadows followed them from behind. The air seemed to thicken around them, as if time had momentarily paused to amplify the awkwardness that hung between.
Taehyung stood beside Y/n, looking elsewhere, admiring the picturesque settings of the front yard. Her cheeks flushed with a soft shade of pink, on remembering their puzzling moment in the bathroom.
She tucked a loose strand of her chestnut hair behind the ear, attempting to regain her composure.
The boy with a hood glanced in her direction. His long lashes enhanced his enthralling black irises. He cleared his throat, and Y/n's lips twitched, wanting to speak, but she failed to find the right words.
A small smile tugged at the corners of his mouth as if he realized something. And it was that fleeting moment of connection amidst the awkwardness swirling between them.
"You must be the human right?" Taehyung asked, in his deep voice that resonated through the air.
It was a voice unlike any. Its timbre was velvety and smooth, wrapping around each word like a warm embrace.
