7 minutes into the ride and Taehyung felt calmed now.On the other hand, Jeongukk was getting impatient.He wanted to know why his newest classmate is in the bar on his first day and on top of that, screaming?
Jeongukk didn't notice that he was tapping his right foot on the car's floor for a while now.

"Hey, T-Taehyung, right?"Jeongukk asked Taehyung in a low voice because obviously,he won't want the driver to hear their conversation.

"Yeah?"Taehyung asked,finally turning his head towards Jeongukk.The brunette has been looking outside from the window for sometime now, repeating the  recent memory from the bar, over and over again.

"Why did you scream-"Jeongukk started but stopped when he saw the dried tears at the bottom corners of Taehyung's eyes.

"You- You cried?"The raven head questioned.His voice consisted of utter confusion and worry by now.

The questioned male hurriedly tried to wipe it out,as his hand travelled towards his eyes,they stopped.It felt like something stopped them.Taehyung opened his gorgeous eyes up,only to see that Jeongukk was holding his hand, preventing him from doing so.

"Don't wipe them."

"Why not?They look bad anyways"With that, another tear came shedding down this face.

"Just don't, don't do it yourself"

"What do you mean?"

With that being said, Jeongukk wiped those tears away himself with the pad of his thumb.Taehyung's eyes widened at that and he turned his face around again.

"Hey,turn around and answer my question first"Jeongukk brought up that topic again.

"No, I'm not turning around!"Taehyung said.He was being stubborn.He didn't say it out loud, just with emotions.

"Feeling shy,Taetae?"

"huh?"

"I'm just joking,now tell me"Jeongukk said while chuckling a bit.Taehyung finally turned around.His expression was easily readable;he was trying to make a straight face but he wanted to smile.Jeongukk noticed that but didn't say anything since he knew,he won't get an answer then.Taehyung let out a sigh to get rid of the funny feeling.

"So,"

"Sir,we are here"The driver cut him off,well the guy didn't noticed that he is cutting him off but how will he let them know then?

"Oh,how much are the charges again?"The raven haired boy questioned the cab driver.

"18,254 won, please" The said driver answered after checking the distance on the car screen.

"Jeongukk, please let me pay , or whatever your name is"Taehyung offered, chuckling at the last sentence.

"uhh,fine.But you'll have to give me your number then."Jeongukk replied, giving a sly smile too.

"Thanks"That was what Taehyung said before giving the drive his money and handing his mobile phone to the tattooed male.

Jeongukk just couldn't believe his eyes, someone harassed Taehyung at the bar?He wanted to punch the guy, Taehyung seemed way too innocent and naive to do anything about it.But the raven head couldn't do anything about it at the moment;he barely knew Taehyung at all.

Jeongukk:

Just like that,the two went on for another hour until they realized that they had to sleep.The brunette felt nice talking to this new guy named Jeongukk.He also felt some comfortable feeling with him in the car too.Taehyung kept on replaying whatever happened in the car over and over again.He felt shy when Jeongukk called him TaeTae,why?He likes cute names.Actually he adores them.

He really hoped that they would start hanging out,that Jeon was a really goofy guy and made Taehyung forget about the disgusting way that old man harassed him at the bar.Even though that bar is quite well known in the city and the reviews for it are also good.But still, some people are forgetting etiquettes these days.

Taehyung layed down on his mattress and turned around towards his right.He scrolled through his Instagram feed a bit .But his fingers stopped on their own after seeing the recommended accounts.

"jennierubyjane?"

"who's that?"

*ding*

'@jennierubyjane just followed you,tap to follow them too'
