SERENITY - The Tale Of Eternal Love.

27

Taehyung ran out of the restaurant, his heart is heavy with regret, guilt is consuming him, as if eating him alive his steps got slower and knees buckled, every ounce of strength leaving his body.

Somehow he went to the small garden that is in front of the restaurant and sat on the swing, his tearstained face was puffy and swollen with grief.

He put his forehead on his palms that was resting on his knees and a heart wrenching sob left from his mouth, "why, why did I do that? " Why did I do that to a person who was always there for me?" "I lost everything, because of my stupid mistake" He sobbed, and there is no one to wipe his tears, there is no one to console him, he's grieving all alone in the misery that he himself created.

With shaking hand he took out his phone from his jeans pocket and dialled a number the person answers with a "hello"

"Mi-ng-" He tried to say his name, but the lump in his throat is not allowing him to form proper sentence.

"Oh my- tae what's wrong? are you okay? Where are you? Is something happen? For God sake tell me something" Taehyung can clearly sense the tension in mingyu's voice but he ignored that.

"I'm ok-ay, I want you to book tom-orrow early mor-ning flight tickets for m-" He says, but mingyu cut him off in between.

"But what happened, you were going to come day after tomorrow right, taehyung please tell me is something wrong? " He says on the other side of the phone

"Everything is wrong, I don't want to stay here for a second please, please I'm begging you" He drew his lower lip between his teeth to control his sob but failed miserably.

"Hey- hey tae listen to me okay, calm down just do as I say ok-ay"

"take a deep breath and release it okay" Taehyung nodded to himself as he did what mingyu said.

"Repeat it one more time with me" He said,

"Yeah okay" He said,

After few minutes mingyu asks again "tae what happened? "

"Nothing jus- I do-n't actually I wan-"

"Hey it's okay you don't have to force yourself, but remember I'm always here for you" He assured with a calming voice.

"I know" Taehyung said in a small voice, dried tears adoring his face.

"I'll try to book tickets for early in the morning don't worry" The voice came.

"Okay than bye" He said.

"Yeah, take care of yourself and please call me if something happens okay" And taehyung replied with a "yes" before hanging up.

He sat there for God knows how long, lost in thoughts when he felt something on his shoulder, a jacket draped over his shoulder and there stood behind him none other than the person he's not sure if he really wanted to see right now.

"Are you out of your mind, what are you even doing here, enjoying the rain? " Jeongguk said in his deep raspy voice.

But everything got blured for taehyung as he stared at the person standing in front of him, he's sure he's dreaming coz why would jeongguk will come here after ignoring him back there like he didn't even exist. Right?

"Are you even listening to me? " He heard the voice again.

Oh my god what's wrong with me, I even started to see things now

But when taehyung lifted his gaze to see he's still standing there, maybe it's all a dream, maybe he's just seeing things, maybe jeongguk is not here but it's beautiful, the feeling of seeing him this close felt surreal.
