Jan'33
Taeri

I was at the tattoo shop. I just knew the perfect tattoo for me.

I walked inside towards the desk. "This is Taeri" I said and the receptionist smiled. "Yeah we were waiting for you. Please come inside" she said and let me in.

I followed her in and met the tattoo artist. "sir, Ms. Seo" she introduced and left. The man turned towards me. "Welcome Taeri, I was just done with the design you asked and I believe I have some suggestions for you too" he said and I looked at him confused until he showed me his ipad and I smiled.

Coming here was the perfect decision.

Sept'33

"Damn this place is beautiful." Said Taeri as we walked down the road.

The elder people didn't join us since they were tired, taehyung has to attend to an important call so he stayed behind. Jiha hasn't shown up here yet, I hope she does, ven will murder her otherwise and very brutally I must say.

Jungkook and Venessa were trying on the different outfits.

We are supposed to go and receive our outfits, apparently we are supposed to wear everything Indian and Taeri has prepared everything for everyone.

Ryan and his just a friend girlfriend are I dunno are doing something probably, that leaves us with only three of us here.

After the palace tour, Taeri took anvi's help and got some money exchanged for expenditures and joined us.

Knowing her it was probably an extravagant amount.

Taeri, as the one who brought for the elephant ride, Sarang as the one who is supposed to take the ride and me who is Sarang's guardian and couldn't let two of my girls go wander in an unknown city like that.

The town area is so beautiful, I saw so many tourists here. "Noonanoonanoonaa elephant!!" Sarang screamed and dragged Taeri towards the area where elephant rides were being provided.

Can she stop calling her noonanoona. That's an eonnie for her. Oh god.

"Excuse me, ride for one please" she asked the man who looked at her.

"No, English" no please.

Some random kid came towards us. "Wait, ma'am. I'll help. I'm his son." He said.

"So, my kid wants to ride" she said pointing at Sarang.

"Ohhhh, no. Small kids with parents or older people." He said and Taeri looked at me back at him.

"So three of us can go there?" She asked and he nodded.

"Wait me?" I ask.

"I'm not going there alone" she said

"How much?" She then asks the boy. I was sure he will be looted for not being locals.

He sighed.

"₹10, 000 for the three of you, we will take you around the forts and a tour of the city and we will be back here in 3-4 hours." He said.

I immediately calculated, 16.48 something won make up one Indian rupees. So basically we are paying about

1,64,761.

My eyes widened.

"Tae-

"Take 11k and I want you to be the one accompanying us" she said and he nodded with a smile.

"Definitely, please come here."

Here I was trying to object to the price and she just increased it-

I face palm and follow them.

Sarang, cheered and Taeri looked happy. She was always happy burning her money.

.

The elephant was lowered and we climbed on the higher ground platform and first I climbed, then I took Sarang and lastly I gave my hand to her and she smiled before taking it. I pulled her and she was this close to me.

Suddenly the elephant rose up, My grip on her tightened and both of us reached a hand onto Sarang only for my hand to go over her's.

God.

Both of us were just there. It took her a while to free herself from me with those red cheeks.

I smiled a little.
She was often so cold and a lot more warm.

The tour was beautiful, with a lot of photos, selfies, and so many beautiful scenes.

Taeri looked immensely happy and her grip on the railing was immensely tight at the same time.

We returned in the evening after a lot of fun. I was looking at Taeri as we walked towards the inside of the palace.

"I'll go to halmeoni" Sarang says referring to ven's grandmother.

Taeri tried to follow her when I called her. "Taeri"

She turned around.

I looked at her for a good while and then took a long breath. "Thank you" I said and she looked confused yet she blinked.

"Always" and both of us simply smiled.

Bonus

"Where are you Jiha??" Taeri asks.

"I'll be with you by tomorrow, I promise. I can't leave korea until tomorrow" Jiha responded and Taeri hummed.

"Hurry up please"
