Space Girl - Taehyung

1.1 - introductions

It all started with my first boyfriend- when I figured out I had commitment issues. I'm pretty sure I wasn't happy with myself and I hardly smiled. That's when Taehyung comes in the picture. He taught me how to smile, laugh and basically become a happy person. Someone that people wanted to be around.

It was a long time ago and I can't really recall how we met but I'm pretty sure this is how it all went down.

I was in the library, where silence was everyone's friend. I guess he ended up there for some reason. I don't know how, just accept the fact that fate led us to each other. It would be better if you did.

I was studying near the windows when he approached me, said hi. I smiled back at him then looked down, hoping that I wouldn't engage in a conversation but he was persistent. He started to go on about how he "loved libraries" and their quiet atmosphere. But I learnt later on that this was all a rouse to get me to take sides with him.

I didn't get much study done because of him but somehow I didn't get annoyed at him. He smiled at me when he gave me his phone number. That 4D smile made the corners of my mouth twitch into a smile. He made me learn how to smile again. How to think 'rationally.'

I looked at the little ripped piece of paper;

Taehyung
+82 413 332 834

I wondered what I would do with it when I got home.

He had to leave and I would remember the moment he did. He was probably the first person to ever take a liking on me. And that made me feel special.

I left the library soon after he did, getting into my car and driving home, I thought about him throughout the whole car ride. His soft brown hair that tossed every time he moved, his brown eyes which were squinting most the time because he was always smiling and his unique way of words and humour. All of it was on my mind. I was just hoping I was in his.
