"Jungkook is your brother? Are you thinking of talking to your parents now?" Jisoo asks while she stirs the curry in the kitchen. she wore a very light blue dress that reach near her knees up.

"Parents? what kind of parents leave their kids?" Taehyung scoofs at the mention of calling them parents at this point. he wore a white t-shirt and black pants as it's his comfy clothes when he is home. he sat on the chair infront of kitchen watching her cook.

"but reality is reality. even if you don't accept they are still your real parents" she knew how he feels about his real parents. Even she feels sour about them cause they are the reason he is so hurt.

she glance at him with a very loving pity eyes. "Tae, it's okay to just ask them away" she assures. he shakes his head as no. he doesn't want to talk to them at this moment.

"the mention of their name is making me pissed"he utters through his clenching teeths.

she sighs. as she continues cooking, after few hours they sat to eat. she could see how sad he was.

as usual being his saviour of life. she did a facetime with Mr Kim and Mrs Kim. Watching these two faces Taehyung felt slowly loosing up, his face calms down even his heart. he talked with them whole heatedly forgetting all the worries. Jisoo sat infront of him, admiring his handsome peaceful happy face. "my puppy" she mutters smiling.

Jisoo took the leftover after they were done. Taehyung didn't forgot to notice how she just made him cheered up again. he couldn't just say it out loud but deep inside he was very thankful for her. everytime he looks at her, he feels he is watching an angel. everytime she talks, as if someone is playing violin. everytime she walks he feels the world has blurred up, it's only her who is visible for his eyes.

Jisoo was washing the utensils when he saw two more hands washing. she looks at the person, was very surprised to see him. "hey you don't have to do it" she quickly told him. "I'm not an ungrateful unmanly, so I would help the lady" he says as if royally. she couldn't stop herself laughing at him. It made him feel very nice that he can make her laugh too.

He always felt Jisoo pity him very much. when he was a child, he used to be very introvert, shy. He is still though. But that time people around him used to take advantage of him.

People in school would make him do homeworks, assignments for the sake of their "so-called friendship". People would bully him, they would make fun of him. Untill she came to his life. When they changed home and school he met her. he still remembers vividly...

"Dad can't you go inside with me and stay for one day?" Little Taehyung pleads his father holding his hand tightly with his small ones.

His father knew his old school history, he could see his eyes were very scared to go inside. He was scared of being bullied again.

"Baby, appa is here right here! just call me one time I'll run inside" although Taehyung was almost 6 at that time his family treats him as if he is 2.

Scared Taehyung goes inside slowly. Teacher welcomed him and told him to sit with a girl. As he sat down he looks down and just focused on the teacher.

Like this slowly time started passing by, he was again started being target of bullies. He was a shy boy which leads to people think him as weak. But that Monday..

"Let's welcome our new student, Kim Jisoo" the teacher welcomes the small girl. Taehyung didn't bother to look at her much. He just noticed one thing that she smiles a lot.

What made him look at her again was the teacher told her to sit with Taehyung. Although Taehyung already had a seatmate. His seatmate was told to sit on another bench and Jisoo sat with him.

"hi?!" she waves her tiny hands infront of his face during the break time. "hi" he looks at her greeting back. she was smiling still now. He didn't understand what's there to smile so much? why is she so happy to be in a new place?

Jisoo was about to talk more but soon his bullies came and pulled Taehyung with them outside of the class. Jisoo pouts loosing the opportunity to make a friend. she shrugs off and tries to talk with other girls.

As days passes by, new girl Jisoo became class favourite. everyone in the class liked her specially boys. They were crazy for her. Jisoo tries hard to make Taehyung her friend but he would hardly talk. Even during one party Taehyung came to know Jisoo is his father's friend's daughter.

"Hey why don't you talk to me in the school? Even here you don't talk? do you hate talking or me?" She pouts asking him. Taehyung just stares blankly not knowing what to say.

Oneday she saw Taehyung's friends (bullies) took him somewhere. She follows them and found they were beating him badly. Later he sat there crying silently. Jisoo felt very bad, and very angry. She walks to Taehyung and sat beside him."why don't you complain to ma'am?" she asks. He sniffs his tears, "i can't, even if I try they beat me more" Jisoo hold his hands, "your hands are so strong, if you hit them back they'll not beat you again" Taehyung looks at her confused. As if she just said something in different language.

"I can't hit them I don't know how to" he says wiping his tears. "WHAT! You don't know self defense? My father took me to a place where they teach me self defense, karate" Jisoo exclaims very proudly. "You can fight?" Taehyung asks admiring. She nods.

She hugs him and promises, "from now on I'll always protect you" Taehyung cries more in her neck saying muffled voice, "why would you?" She pats his back, "because we will be best friends from now"

She kept the promise. next day she teached those bullies a lesson, they were petrified by that tiny girl. She complained to teachers, Taehyung's father was very happy to see Taehyung made a friend. This is why he proposed for a business together with Jisoo's father. As he was very good friend with Mr Kim they thought that would be great.

Jisoo always stayed beside him. In highschool she made many friends, many guys proposed her but she never forgot Taehyung. She studied in same highschool with him, went same college, went same training centre to learn business. Everything they did together made their bond special.

Taehyung has always felt Jisoo's love was a pity for him. It was just sympathy for him. Even now he feels so. Would it every leave his head? Will he ever understand her true feelings?

"Jisoo, Jimin has been continuously texting calling to see us" Taehyung informs. Jisoo brushes her hairs as she replies lazily, "us? He wants to see his best friend nothing else" she scoofs. No matter what the situation is her fighting with Jimin for Taehyung will never stop!

"He is our both's friend, Jisoo" He sighs. He never understood why his best friends always fights with eachother. "Yeah he was, after he became your friend he just made me his enemy" she turns facing him from the dressing table.

"How?" he asks sitting on her bed. "By becoming your best friend he took my spot, he always gets your attention at the tiniest thing he would do, and I get nothing" she pouts feeling betrayed. She remembers how Jimin became Taehyung's friend.
