A dead beat dad. His family wasn't the best. That's why at the age of 14 he started working. Since then he couldn't see the beauty of the town everyone talks about. He could only see grey.

People always say how beautiful  the flowers he waters are. How lovely the deep red is. But Taehyung couldn't see that. He dreams what it feels like though. He can barely remember the color of the sky from when he was a baby.

He wanted to remember. He saw it before.. how "beautiful" the sky is. But when he turned 14 he couldn't see it anymore. Maybe it was because of his dead beat father. Maybe it was the men who knocked on his door every month on the 13th. But he knew he has to pay. His younger brother needs to live. Though Taehyung was sure the money he gives his brother was taken away by his father. That's why he's take him out every Friday to go eat waffles.

But his boring old same routine life changed when bikers rode into the little old town. Taehyung didn't care at first. What was so fun abut bikers? They'd past once in a while. Nothing to out of the ordinary. But walking down the street Taehyung saw it.


A bright vibrant orange. Taehyung was stunted. Throughout the grey was a color. He saw it bouncing up and down.

Taehyung wanted to cry because he'd saw something everyone else saw. He craved to be normal.

Taehyung can't see the colors everyone else sees as why he thinks their town is boring. -
