A lie

part 16

*****

"Hey taehyung!" An excited voice came, making taeyhung snapped his head towards the direction of voice.

Currently, he was on his gaurd duty at the shopping mall, his face was all dull today again. It's not new thing though.

He looked back, just to saw Maria standing away from him, waving her hand at him, smiling.

"Hey, whatsup!" The girl ran toward him and asked excitedly. But her smile fell when taehyung didn't replied but his sadness and quietness was the answer.

"Taehyung, what happened ?" Maria asked worried about her friend.

"Nothing." Taehyung mumbled little, looking away from her.

"Huh? I- OMG! Taehyung," And suddenly she realised, her eyes widened.

"Taehyung, what happened? What about face timing with your villagers ?" Asked her after remembering that yesterday was the day when taehyung had to face time with his villagers because they wanna see if taeyhung was really with the model.

"Uh- am- am sorry." She said small, looking at taehyung's dim face, when taehyung didn't replied.

"Why sorry, maria?'' taehuyng sighed loudly at his destiny.

"It's all my fate, afterall."

"Bu-

"I lied." Taehyung said looking out of the window. Maria sighed. She knew.

"I lied saying Jeon Jungkook have an important meeting." Taehyung said, taking of the cap he was wearing.

"Oh taehyung." Maria came front to taehyung and carressed his shoulder.

"It's okay- it's not your fault tho." Says Maria, trying to console his friend.

"Uh! Finally, my shift is done." Taehyung said looking down at his wrist watch, which was showing 5:00pm, that means his shift of today as guard is done.

"Let's go to my home then." Asked maria, when she saw taehyung was about to go.

Teahyung looked at her and nodded his head a little. It's okay, when you're sad- spending time with friends makes it better.

"Im so sick of myself. Lies after lies." Taehyung said, sighing loudly. He was sitting on couch of maria's.

"Maybe it's okay taehyung, because you wanna make your mother happy." Said maria from kitchen which was just infront and near to the living room, where taehyung was sitting.

"Sometimes lying is okay." She said while coming out from kitchen, with two cup of tea in her hands.

" 'sometimes' not 'always' " taehyung sighed for nth time. Knowing how he lies every single day, just to hide another lie. He finds out how much he is fucked up, but he can't do anything right now. He is not in *do or die* situation, infact he's in *do AND die* situation.

"Don't stress too much. Or you will be get wrinkles on your handsome face before your 30s." Maria tried to change taehyung's mood, while handing him cup of tea.

"What's the worth of this handsome face when it couldn't make that model fall for me." Taehyung scoffed and sipped the tea after ward.

"Oh man- you're still stucked with that model." Maria sighed, sipping her tea.

"Wasn't it better if you have take my name that day instead that one model?" Maria teased taehyung. But got worried when taehyung coughed the tea.

"Hey-" she cutt herself off when she saw taehyung starts laughing loudly, while his shoulders were shaking. Which made her frown.
