Taeri

My hands shivered as I pressed the numbers to the only person who could help me.

"Hello" I said while Ryan was in my lap absolutely wet, the water seeped into me and clothes were getting drenched as well.

"Hey Taeri, how are you?-"

"J-jiha" My voice broke as I spoke.

"TAERI WHAT HAPPENED. WHY IS Your VOICE LIKE THAT-"

"Jiha, I just killed my mother"

And there was silence, now that I said that out loud. I realised the severity of the situation.

I committed murder.
Of my mother.
The most powerful women I know.

My dad is going to be home soon. I'm going to jail.

What is going to happen to Ryan. What is going to happen to Ryan.

"Taeri!!" She said and I snapped out of it.

"Listen to me. Where are you?"

"Ryan's room. My place" I answered.

"Stay where you are. Do not move, do not make a single noise. Do not touch anything else. I'm coming" she said and cut the call.

I was there absolutely still, until my eyes felt drowsy and I passed out there in the washroom after I committed a felony.

I really am a monster.

Am I monter? That is what I think everyday. As a child, I was so sure I am a monster. My mother reminded me about the fact everyday.

However as a grown up adult, I feel bad for the child in me. I wish I could hug her. I cry everytime I think about my childhood.

"Taeri, you know you are hyper independent hence if someone does the littlest thing for you, you feel like they are wasting their resources and efforts over you. You subconsciously are incapable of accepting care and affection from others. You need to fix that, you deserve the world too.

It's great you are protective and you like to provide but you also need to accept. We decided on something when you returned back to korea, you can't do that if you do not accept care, affection and protection from others. Keep reminding yourself, it's okay and it's not shameful." Dr. Oakman said.

I told him about everything including the shopping trip, he said I have only just been the one to take the extra mile for others. The fact jimin simply paid for me was a big deal because I was raised in a way that made me feel like a waste of money.

I would do tripple the fold what Jimin did to me, so why can't I accept that.

Why can't I be normal.

I hate myself so much. I just really want to live myself as much as I love him.

With that I put on the earrings. I wore one of the dress jimin bought me with knee high pencil boots and a black bag.

I didn't bother with a jacket since it could spoil the look. My eyes kept falling on the dress, it didn't feel as awkward to let someone else pay now that I talked to Dr.Oak.

"Taeri, how long are you going to take?"

I wish that could have been jimin but it was jungkook.

That asshole and his fiance have camped up here since they found out what happened.

"Guys, you need to leave. Someone is coming to pick me up?" I responded

I shouldn't have.

"Who?"
"Who?"
"Who?"

Ven, Jungkook and Ryan joined in chorus. I rolled my eyes and walked out of the room. I was about to scream when I received the call.

I immediately picked up and the three clowns ran towards me too.

"Hey, I just wanted to ask where exactly do you live? I followed the apartments you gave the address to but the guar-"

"Don't worry I'm coming!!" I said and rushed out of the door trying to evade the three clowns.

Who was I kidding ?

.

Jimin stood awkwardly holding sarang and a cute little bag. He had a black 5 seater Kia.

I stood there along with Ryan, ven and jungkook.

"He was the someone" Jungkook said and ven giggled.

"Ofcourse" she whispered.

"Shut up" I said under my breath and smiled at him. I walked forward and took Sarang from him.

"What's this?" I ask

"Oh, just spare clothes, milk etc. I really hope Ryan is not troubled" He asks again.

"It's okay, if I can raise him him at 19, he can babysit her for a night too." I said and turned to Ryan who immediately rushed towards me.

"It's alright, she is a nice child." He said and came closer to Sarang.

"Wyan oppa!!" She screamed and jumped at him.

Aww
Cutie has her first crush.
(I'm planning to make him her uncle)

"So umm jungkook ven, you can joi-"

I interupted him after passing the bag to Ryan.

"NO"

everyone looked at me.

"They are not coming with us. They need private time, they'll come in their car" I said with a smile and glared at both of them.

Before they can become the bane of my happiness, they nodded and walked towards their car and I walked towards his.

"Are you well rested? I can drive?" I asked and he shook his head.

"It's okay, just sit on the passenger seat" he said and I froze.

It wouldn't be a big matter for others but being told to do nothing and someone else will do something for you, as simple as driving is a huge deal for me.

No one has done anything unconditional for me. Ryan, Jungkook and ven try but I'm just so messed up. Nobody is able to help.
