Mr. 5-Kids-Family

The Kim Taehyung Story

"Okay, everyone. I am going around collecting your homework. Please, take it out." The teacher announced.

All the students did as told. All except for Taehyung. As the teacher kept collecting the papers, he sat patiently with a smile on his face. When she approached, she furrowed her eyebrows.

"Taehyung, where is your homework?" She asked.

"I didn't understand anything on it so I thought that if I ate it, I would get smarter!" Taehyung grinned, bouncing slightly on his seat.

The teacher sighed and the students began to roar in laughter. "Taehyung is an alien! Taehyung is an alien!" They shouted.

Taehyung's smile slowly disappeared from his face as he stared at his teacher with teary eyes, pouty lips, and a small frown. The teacher's face softened.

"Stay after school tomorrow, okay? I want to speak to your parents." She said before going to the next student.

Taehyung lowered his head, wiping his tears. The bell rang and it was time for lunch. Taehyung refuses to have that small dilemma ruin his day. He quickly pulls out his homemade lunch before running to the cafeteria. He had a big smile on his face as he saw his classmates sitting on a table. He approached them as he saw an empty chair.

"Hi!" He greeted with a smile. "Can I sit here?"

"Sorry, taken." They lied with a small, teasing smile.

"Oh...okay." He smiles again. He runs to the other table. "Can I sit here?"

"Pft. No way, loser. Go away." They snickered.

Taehyung's smile fell completely as he dragged his body away. He left the cafeteria and went outside to eat. He saw the smaller kids running around on the playground as he sat on a bench. He sighed while opening his alien-themed lunchbox. His umma said his personality was amazing and there was nothing wrong with being unique but then...why was he so different from the rest of the kids? Why was he so weird compared to them? Perhaps he should...change.

"Hyung! H-H-Hyung!" He heard a small voice call and small footsteps.

Taehyung looked up to see his smaller brother, Jungkook, with a smile, running towards him. Once the smaller one noticed his hyung was upset, Jungkook pouted.

"What's wrong, hyung?" Jungkook questioned, sitting on the other side of the bench.

"Nothing." He lied.

"You h-haven't taken a bite of anything. Umma's cooking is the best!" He chirped.

"You can have it if you'd like." Taehyung said, pushing the lunchbox towards him.

Jungkook gladly took an egg roll out of the lunchbox and took a big bite of it.

"H-H-Hyung...why are you so upset?" He asked again but Taehyung shook his head. "Alien V..."

"STOP CALLING ME ALIEN!" Taehyung exclaimed, tossing the lunch box on the floor.

Jungkook frowned. "Umma said to never waste foo-"

"Well umma lies, okay? Don't believe everything umma says!"

"But umma knows be-"

"No...he doesn't..." Mumbled Taehyung.

"H-Hyung..." Jungkook stands up and walks in front of his older brother.

Taehyung was looking down at the floor when Jungkook hugged him with his small arms. Jungkook usually didn't hug anybody, unless it was umma, so Taehyung quickly embraced him back.
