Morning came and Taehyung was well energized. My plan should go well. He grabbed some clothes from his walk in closet, including the towel and the shoes as well. He went out his house with a smirk on his face.

He went to the house next door and he pressed hard on the doorbell. There was no response, so he pressed it repeatedly; continuously. After minutes, the door finally flew open and there she was, his next target.

She stared at V for a while and creased her forehead. "What?" she shortly asked. V smiled, pretending to be sweet and cute yet the girl hasn't changed her expression yet. "We ran out of water and you're the nearest to my house. Can I... use your shower?" He smiled again, his eyes getting even smaller.

She raised an eyebrow and leaned her weight on her right leg. "The other house there, can't you ask them?"

"I tried, no one's opening the door. Hey, it's no biggie. I just need to use your shower."

The girl stared at him for a while, waiting for the next words he'll let go. But they ended up staring at each other, so she just let him in.

Tae's evil plan was simple. He would use her shower, tie the towel around his waist, and show her his perfect abs off. Surely, after this, she would get easy on him and she would find him attractive already. And all ends are the same: she falls in love, he pretends to fall in love, and he leaves her. Hanging. She gets heartbroken, wasted, name it all you want. Bottomline? She gets hurt. Easy job, right?

She walked straight across the room and led him to her bathroom. "Here. Make sure to just take a bath. We're not even close, mister. So be done in a minute."

V nodded and smiled again. "Ne."

He went straight in. He wouldn't actually take a bath. It was all part of his crazy plan. He opened the faucet so it would appear that the shower was open. Water wasted, but hell does he care. He stood there for about a couple of minutes and started undressing, leaving his spongebob boxers. He tied the towel around and went out. He went to her room to pretend to change. And, she'll come in, she will see his abs, and oh mama, game over.

He waited for a few seconds when a sweater caught his eye. Familiar. He went closer to it and pulled it from the pink hanger. His eyes opened wide looking at the sweater. YJ 06. He knew it was his. It is his. His heart beat fast as he pulled the sweater close to his nose.

He sniffed but the smell was gone. Now, there's no trace of her anymore. It was the only memory left and now it's gone. He did not hesitate and he headed straight downstairs.

The girl saw him with only a towel on him and she couldn't help but let out a high-pitched scream. What the actual..? He was half naked! "Yah! What are you doing? Are you trying to seduce me or something? Because if you are, this shit is not working! Wear some clothes—"

"Shut up. Why is this with you?" He angrily asked and pulled the sweatshirt up. He raised an eyebrow waiting for her reply. Her face softened as she felt his fury. It was scary, and even though she didn't want to get scared, he was scary.

"Well.. Uhm, I-I was just.. I-. I pulled--"

"Exactly, you pulled this from the fitting room door didn't you? Do you know what this jacket means to me? What kind of girl are you? You have a huge house and you have a lot of designer clothes based on what I saw from your room. Did you steal all of those too, lady?" He became more angry. The girl's softened face turned into a fiery face too. They were both angry. 

"First of all, I have a name. It's Hae Young and not 'lady'. And secondly, excuse me. But I don't really steal. I have my reasons on why I got your clothes okay? So don't you dare judge me. Or actually, judge me all you want. The hell. I don't care."

Her words didn't process in his mind. All he thought of was the smell. The smell, the smell, the smell: it's gone for God knows why.

"Why did you wash it? Who told you to wash this?! Now everything's gone because you washed it. Everything's gone because of you!" He got angrier every time and her anger escalated as well. They were both tensed up and pissed at each other. Hae Young was about to answer when V put his clothes on quickly and left her house after.  She was left dumbfounded after, while V cursed silently outside while walking to his house right beside hers.


Stupid. Why would she wash it? It's not even hers. Fuck this. Now it's all gone. The smell is all gone. 

He went straight to his room and pulled out the white box under the bed. Letters. The letters he gave were too colorful and happy, but all his effort were thrown when she gave it back to him. 


I hate all girls, but how could I not hate on the woman who hurts?

He threw the letters back and kicked the box back under his bed. He laid down and hugged the sweater. At least the sweater's still safe. But the smell. I've been keeping her fragrance for years and it will be washed away like this? 


He got more annoyed thinking of that girl. Hae Young. Her name is nice but how can she be the complete opposite? It's annoying, you know. When someone enters your life like nothing, and in a quick snap, she takes away your only everything. Who is she? Where did she even come from? And please give me a  hella good damn reason on why of all people, she's even my neighbor.

It's like destiny's piss game. Is destiny trying to hit him though? He scratched his head in frustration and threw the sweater away. Argh, it's all messed up.


Stupid. Why would he get mad like that? What am I, a 5-year old kiddo?  Oh, please. I don't do too much shit but I might because of him. See? Now I curse even more. Plus, it's just a freaking jacket anyway. How can a sweater be so important, huh? He's just overreacting. Yah! How annoying really!


She ranted the whole day and got annoyed because of the incident.


They're both frustrated, but the clash isn't even starting yet.
