Through The Eyes - TAEGYU ✔️

twenty five

Taehyun opens his eyes to find the space beside him empty and cold with the pillows stacked nicely. He jolts awake, panicked once again as he recalls the awful memory of Beomgyu leaving him.

"Gyu?" Taehyun calls out, but with no answer.

He hops out from his bed and searches the living room, kitchen, and every corner of the room but to find no sign of the latter.

"Gyu? Beomgyu? This isn't funny." Taehyun says, feeling his eyes swelling.

Just when he thought he was about to break down once again, he spots a piece of paper pasted on his apartment door, written 'To Hyunnie'. Taehyun takes the paper off from the door and looks behind it.

Good morning angel,

I'm sorry you had to wake up with an empty space beside,

I hope you didn't panic but I left for a good reason, I promise.

Hyunnie, once you're up, and have taken your breakfast, get your lazy ass out of the apartment.

But, make sure you wear a mask or a cap, because the paparazzis are around the area, probably looking for you.

Sneak through them, alright?

Hyunnie, remember the place where we first met?

I'll see you there!

Love, Gyu <3

"Aish.." Taehyun rubs the back of his neck, his eyes furrowed. "This bastard made me panic for no reason."

Taehyun jumps into the shower and eats breakfast. He then dolls himself up, wearing black ripped jeans, a white tank top with a blue bomber jacket and a pair of white sneakers. He does as Beomgyu says and where's a cap. If it's true that the paparazzis might be looking for him, then they'll surely recognize his hair more than his face. Taehyun locks the door behind him and leaves. He glances at his watch. He woke up pretty late today, it's currently 2pm. How long ago did Beomgyu leave the apartment?

Taehyun arrives at the bakery, the first place where they first met. The place where Beomgyu was so in awe the first time he landed his eyes on the younger. Taehyun searched the outside of the bakery to find any sign of the latter, but none. So, Taehyun enters the bakery, thinking of waiting for Beomgyu and sees Dongpyo at the counter.

"Taehyun-ah!" Dongpyo waves at him.

"You're working today?" Taehyun asks.

"I'm taking over for the day." Dongpyo says. "Hey, can you help me for a while? The cashier's kind of jammed."

"Sure."

Taehyun walks over to the cashier to see what the problem is, but it seems to be working fine. "Dongpyo, there isn't any problem-" Taehyun opens the cashier to find a folded small piece of paper. Written on it 'To Hyunnie'.

"Of course, there's a problem. That small paper jammed up the cashier." Dongpyo says.

"Very funny." Taehyun rolls his eyes.

Taehyun proceeds to read the next note Beomgyu left for him.

Hyunnie,

Did you find it? If you did, then you're on the right track.

The next place you have to go to is somewhere very colourful and bright.
