Taehyung's pov
I walk home from school with a smile on my face, my arms swinging from side to side. I am super excited for this upcoming weekend because Rain's parents are finally coming home from their business trip. She said that she told them about me, and they are super excited to meet me. I can't help but feel a tiny bit nervous though. Meeting someone's parents is a really important step in someone's relationship. What if they don't like me?
The air feels nice against my skin as I grow closer to where my house is, my backpack thumping gently against my back. My teacher pulled me aside to talk to me today, complimenting me on how much better I am doing in her class. It is defiantly all thanks to the study sessions that Rain has been forcing on me. I never would have gotten my grades up if it weren't for her. Now, I am almost guaranteed to graduate with Rain and the rest of the people in my class.
My eyebrows crinkle in confusion when I spot a car in my driveway. That's odd. I wasn't expecting my parents to be back for at least another month. I walk towards the door before twisting the handle, finding it already unlocked.
"Mom? Dad?"
"In here son" my dad calls, his voice sounding from the living room. I drop my backpack off at the door before taking my shoes off, heading in that general direction. I enter the room and spot both of my parent sitting on the couch, smiles on their faces as they look up at me.
"I didn't know you guys were coming back so soon" I say as I hug my mom first, closing my eyes as I enjoy her familiar scent. I then move onto my dad, his hand slapping my back comfortingly. I can't help but smile as I take a seat across from them, eager to tell them about Rain.
"Now that you two are back I would really like you to meet someone special to me this weekend."
My smile fades when my mom gets a frown on her face, confusion clouding my mind.
"I'm sorry Taehyung, but we will be gone by then."
I look down, suddenly sad. They just got back and now they are going to be leaving again?
"Where are you guys going?"
"Not just us. You too."
I stand up in shock, not wanting to believe what they are saying.
"What do you mean? Are we moving?"
My dad nods his head, smiling up at me.
"I got promoted to be general manager at the firm I work at. The only thing is, I will be stationed in Busan. We leave tomorrow right after school gets out."
My whole world feels as if it has come crashing down on me. I shake my head from side to side as I slowly back away from my parents in shock.
"I can't go. We can't move. What about school?"
"You will finish your senior year at a school in Busan, don't worry."
I shake my head, suddenly growing desperate.
"What about my friends? What about Rain?"
My voice is barely above a whisper at the last question, but my mother hears me. She leans forward slightly, a frown on her face.
"Rain? Is she your girlfriend or something?"
I nod my head. I can feel tears stinging my eyes, the lump in my throat making it hard for me to swallow.
"I love her."
My mom looks like she wants to cry, my dad standing up to face me.
"I'm sorry son, but there is nothing that we can do. We are moving tomorrow, and that's final."
