Magical Love

Magical 21

Aunt Yoon Hee happily prepared Seokjin's dress for his wedding.

"This dress came from our ancestors, and the time will come when you have a baby and get married. You're also going to prepare this dress," Aunt Yoon explained while putting some laces on the dress.

"Aunt Yoon, what's it like to be single?" Seokjin asked.

"Well... being single is, you can do whatever you want, whenever you want without having to worry. Also, you can invest yourself, you can have your own money, you have your own time. Being single is not bad after all..." Aunt Yoon chatted. "Wait," she said, surprised at Seokjin's question. "Are you planning to back down from your marriage?" Aunt Yoon went to her nephew, who was staring outside, not at himself. "Jinnie," she called.

"I'm turning 30 now, and this is my last chance," Seokjin said.

"Oh no," Aunt Yoon squeezed Seokjin's hands. "Jinnie, marriage is full of love, not just something you need."

"But, Aunt Yoon, you can learn to love?" Seokjin asked dejectedly.

"I don't know, Seokjin. Based on my experience, you can learn everything, but you can't teach your heart how to love," Aunt Yoon advised.

"But, Aunt Yoon, how about the curse?" Seokjin inquired, almost losing hope.

"Seokjinnie, isn't the worst curse to live every day full of regret and to be unfair to yourself and to your partner?" They took a minute of silence, hearing the sound of voices singing in the air. While Seokjin pondered his aunt's advice.

"Hoba, are you busy?" Taehyung called Hoseok while Hoseok was cooking his dinner.

"No, I'm just cooking. Why?" Hoseok was slightly curious about Taehyung's call but chose to know the mere reason.

"I'm going to buy drinks and chicken gangjeong. Cook tteokbokki for me," Taehyung said on the other end. Hoseok was frustrated and looked for ingredients. "Looks like we have a drinking session. Make sure to buy more," Hoseok said, hanging up the call.

After a while...

"What? Seokjin broke up with you?" Hoseok was surprised by Taehyung's confession. "How and why?"

Taehyung took a deep breath and explained the flashback.

Flashback.

Seokjin decided to wait for Taehyung outside his office. He bid goodbye to Hoseok, telling him he would call later. Taehyung happily went to Seokjin. 

As Taehyung got into the car, he asked, "So where are we going today, Jinnie?" He was surprised when he saw his engagement ring handed to him. Taehyung took a moment to process everything and sighed deeply.

"I'm going to sue you," Taehyung stated, surprising Seokjin. "I will sue you for scamming my feelings, also for money I spent on churches, receptions, invitations, even at my family gathering, and also for defamation of my trust." Taehyung's face turned serious as he gazed steadily at Seokjin, who began to cry. Taehyung felt guilty for making Seokjin cry.

"Seokjin, I'm just joking," Taehyung said.

"I broke up with you, and you're still making a joke," Seokjin sniffed, wiping his tears.

"Seokjin, if I wasn't joking, I'm the one who would be crying," Taehyung averted his gaze and looked at the night sky.

"Taehyung, I'm so sorry," Seokjin apologized while wiping his tears.

"Why are you apologizing? That's the truth from the start, Jinnie. I know from the start that I'm not the one who's in your heart... it's Jungkook," Taehyung explained, despite the truth hurting inside him.

"Just stupid, right?" Seokjin asked.

"Every person has their own stupidity," Taehyung wiped Seokjin's cheeks. "I understand, Seokjin. I'm grateful that I met a great person like you."

"Even though you look intimidating, your heart is very kind. You should be a priest, not a lawyer," Taehyung chuckled.

"Can I hug you, Seokjin, for the last time?" Taehyung requested, and they hugged each other. "You're cute and lovely. I'm just unfortunate that you didn't choose me."

End of flashback.

"So now, what's your next move after moving on to him?" Hoseok asked, his gaze steady on Taehyung.

"As for now, I need to recover from my breakup, probably a vacation. What do you think, Hoba?" Hoseok sighed.

"Better than becoming wasted," Hoseok suggested, noticing the engagement ring on the table. Hoseok took the ring. He felt bad for Taehyung because Seokjin and Jungkook had used him.

"Hoba," Taehyung smiled at Hoseok and took his hands. "I know, this is uncomfortable for both of us. You deserve this ring." Taehyung put the ring on Hoseok's ring finger.

"Taehyung, I-" Taehyung held his cheek.

"Yes, you are," Taehyung whispered, and they both kissed, enjoying the intense kiss under the night sky.
