Your Eyes Tell || TAEJIN

SWEET MEMORY

A cold place, but still with a sense of warmth can be felt. A place where lives are lost and also brought back. And in the same place Taehyung's eyes started fluttering open. Blinking his eyes, his gaze was fixated on the ceiling, a white one. He started moving his head to the other sides to get a glimpse of the unfamiliar place he was lying. Until his eyes got caught off by someone who was dozing in the chair beside his bed. He felt a light weight on his hand. And naturally a smiled was placed on his face.

He tried getting up, his head felt dizzy. So anyhow he managed to pull himself up to sit up. But he never let go of the other's hand. Sitting up straight, he started looking at the gorgeous boy before him. How can a man be so pretty, his eyes went to their hands, which the latter maybe had intertwined when he was senseless. Oh how both of their fingers looked perfect. His eyes slowing started moving up. Now he could see those plumpy lips which are a bit parted. Don't know why but Taehyung want to savour those. And oh how nice those lips would feel around his di-

'What the hell are you thinking Taehyung!!!! You are fucking hospitalised' realising what he was thinking he scolded himself, he was embarassed about the thoughts which just crossed his mind. He shaked his head to let the dirty thoughts away.

He felt a shift beside him and saw jin fluttering his eyes open. But again closed those. Oh those eyes, he can't see anything with those beautiful eyes if his. Suddenly the incident which occurred in the morning flashed before his eyes, making his blood boil. He clenched his jaws remembering the incident. But soon he felt a squeeze in his hand. It's like even though jin is sleeping but still he can understand him.He doesn't want to think about those then. Instead he smiled and looked to the other side.

Their was a window from where a small garden could be seen. Two boys were playing in the garden, sound of giggles and laughter filled. As if this playfulness is what they crave for. And a bit far away a lady sitting in her wheelchair under a cheery blossom tree and smiling at them. Taehyung saw even though the lady was smiling, tears were streaming down her face seeing those two pretty boys being so happy and playful.
And slowly Taehyung felt he was seeing a memory before him.

He and a pretty looking boy was sitting under a cherry tree tired from all those continuous playing. The two boys sat silently enjoying the not so cold breeze which was hitting their face. Rustling of trees could be heard. And a blossom of cherry flowers falling on them. Little Taehyung cupped his hands so that he can collect those flowers and show them to his mom. Glancing to his side he saw his friend was sitting all silent so he asked the boy to cup his hands the same way.

When the other small boy felt something on his little hands, he glanced at Taehyung and asked

" Taetae it's the month of the cherry blossoms right??"

" Yes jinnie"

" I want to see it. Momma says it's really beautiful to look at" saying that little jinnie's lips formed a pout.

Noticing that his friend is sad, Taehyung said restlessly,
" Oh jinnie don't be sad. Taetae will show you that one day"

" But how??" The younger asked being curious. From his childhood he has never seen anything except darkness. He wants to see it,he wants to know how the world is, but never got a chance.
Sensing the gloomy aura around Jin. Taehyung ran towards the bag which was lying in the middle of the field where he and little jinnie was playing. Opening the bag he took out a paintbrush and a pink staining watercolor.

It's not his, it's jinnie's. Just at the age of 6 he knows how to use watercolour on the other hand he is 8 but still colours his drawings with crayons. And he is proud of his Jinnie, his best friend. He even shows off at school that he has a friend who can't see but draws well. But his friends just give him a ' are you kidding look' at him and claims him to be lying. So he just doesn't show them anymore, except one of his friend Jeon Jungkook. He is Taehyung's another bestfriend. And the one who believes him.
