Farm Boy | k.taehyung [COMPLETED]

~Taking Risks~

"You are an actual idiot," I shook my head. "After all of this hard work, you are just going to throw this opportunity away? You've already got your plane ticket for God's sake!"

"It sounded like a good idea in the heat of the moment," he sheepishly scratched the back of his head.

"Well now you know it wasn't. It was a stupid idea," I put my hands on my hip. "Now look, the bus is gone as well. We are going to have to wait another hour and half because you decided you wanted to be a main character in a melodrama."

His eyes fell to the floor as he sat down on the bench and let out a loud sigh. I joined him.

"I feel touched that you would choose me over your dreams but please don't do that. I too also thought about leaving fame to be with you but after getting back to work, I realised I couldn't just leave my career because I love what I do."

"Going abroad to study has always been a dream of mine. But now that it's about to happen, I can't help but think negatively. What if I don't enjoy it?"

"You won't know if you don't try. I understand that this will be your first time away from the village for a long period of time. However sometimes you have to take risks and put yourself out there" I put an arm around his shoulder and lightly patted his arm.

"It's frustrating that we are forced to separate when we only just got together," he chuckled.

I laughed along. "Well, it's not like we won't be able to see each other. We can always video-call and I will visit Japan as much as I can. You should know that I'm actually pretty popular there."

We spent the short time planning places we would visit when I go to Japan whilst waiting for the next bus. I have to admit; it was very tempting not to agree with Taehyung's sudden change of heart. But a big part of me knew that it was wrong. It would be selfish to hold him back just for the sake of us being by each other.

Two Weeks Later

Things were going great. My scandal had become old news and half of the internet were back to hating me. However, that no longer bothered me because for the first time in my career, I was actually really enjoying myself.

It was as if someone had taken my brain out and replaced it with a new one. Many people seemed to notice my change in attitude. Some believed I had become a better person whilst others said I was simply being two-faced. It didn't matter what others said because I knew myself that my change was for the better, that was all that mattered.

One week from now, the first episode of my new drama was going to be on air and I had been extremely busy promoting it. I had even become a regular cast member for a variety show, which was something new. Previously I had always been reluctant to appear on variety shows since they didn't really appeal to me. And I'm sure I didn't appeal to any show producers either with my personality.

I was carrying my IPad around, showing Taehyung my new penthouse I had moved into two days ago.

"I forgot to show you the balcony. It's my favourite part!"

I sped walked to the balcony door and slid it open. The chilly autumn breeze sent shivers down my spine. I tightened my fluffy bathrobe around me to warm myself.

"Wow! Calling it beautiful would be an understatement."

"I know I am very mesmerising, Taehyung," I chuckled.

"You wish."

I sat down on the chair and put the tablet on the table. The dark night was decorated with all the city lights which created a rather beautiful view. There was something so freeing about being so high up and looking down at the busy city life that never seemed to sleep.

"Taehyung."

"Yeah?" he said without looking at the screen. I could see that he was doing his assignment.

"You see the plan I told you yesterday? I don't know if I want to do it anymore."

"Why not? I think it sounds like a great idea. But of course I don't want to force you because it's your matter."

I let out a sigh and raked my fingers through my hair. "I just think what has happened is so unfair."

"I think what you need is a little more courage. Come on, you are Choi Ara! The second fiercest woman I know, the first being my mum."

"I have to agree with you there," I laughed. "Well, you should go back to finishing off your assignments. And do not procrastinate."

"Yes ma'am."

I ended the call and headed to my bedroom. I needed as much sleep as possible for the interesting day that was ahead of me.

A/N: Since the end of this story is coming by really fast, it has motivated me a lot to write more frequently. I'm so excited to call this a completed story because that would be a huge accomplishment for my procrastinating ass.
