Taehyung who's patiently sitting and waiting for his friend, Jimin,   to finish preparing for school. They are both in their college.

Even though Taehyung was patiently waiting for Jimin, he is impatiently waiting for Wendy's reply. He got the same reaction from Wendy, he was ignored— seen. He started to think that maybe– just maybe, Wendy does not want to meet him.

Am I being persistent? Did I sound so weird? I was just being friendly right?

"Hey." Taehyung heard Jimin's voice from behind. He looked back and saw Jimin, grinning like a cheshire cat with a teasing look. "Who's that girl?~" Jimin raised his eye brows giving him a sly look.

"No one!" He said and shove his phone in his pocket. He stood up and grabbed his bag, he walked toward the door trying to run from his friend's curiousity.

"Really? hahaha!" Jimin was laughing at his friend's priceless reaction.

"Tss hurry up we're getting late." He groaned. Jimin chuckled.

"Araseo, Araseo."

*****************

Jimin and Taehyung parted ways because they are not in the same class. Both are not excelling academically but when it comes to performing they both great.

Taehyung was not listening to his professors the whole day. His mind was set off somewhere. He was still wondering why Wendy kept ignoring him when he asks if they could meet.

Because of his overthinking, he forgot that he has a friend, waiting for him because they should be riding the bus together. Yeah, he left Jimin without noticing. Now, Jimin looks like a lowkey loyal puppy waiting for his master.

Aside from forgetting his friend, he is now walking somewhere else. It was not his usual route, he haven't went here but again, he did not notice it. He just walk and let his feet take over him.

This is Kim Taehyung when something was bothering him. His friends knew him, sometimes they saw him putting a ceramic squirrel in their dish. They find it cute but at the same time scary.

He then, unconsciously about to sit in the street bench when he heard a female voice.

"Ah!" He went back to his consciousness and quickly stood up straight. He did not know that there's someone on the bench so instead he sat on her.

He looked back to face the girl and quickly bow to give his apology.

"I am terribly sorry!" But them... He looked at the woman's face once more. Both of their eyes were slowly widening.

"Hey!" Their heads turned to the right. A man shouting and pointing at Wendy saying 'hey.'

"Sht."  Wendy whispered and quickly got up and ranway.

" Wait!" Taehyung ran after her.

"YES STOP THAT GIRL FOR ME! SHE STOLE SOMETHING!" The guy shouted that made Taehyung stop in his track.

Stole? Wendy stole something to him that's why he is chasing her?

He looked back and saw Wendy from afar becoming a dot. Instead of chasing for her, he decided to settle things for her. He faced the man who's 10 years older than him.

The man who's heaving heavily harshly look at Taehyung. "Why did you let her slip away?!"

"Sir, can I ask what did she stole from you?" Taehyung calmly asked him.

"A two sliced bread rolls and a soda."

A food huh.

Taehyung fished out his wallet from his pocket. He got a $15 out from hus wallet, he inserted his wallet again to his pocket. He wasn't sure how much the items that Wendy stole but he just gave it to the man.

"Please accept this and if there's a change please take it also. Don't report her to the police, I am her guardian." Taehyung politely handed the money and convinced the man.

The man was hesitating but took the money instead. "Fine."

Taehyung looked at the man and smiled at him. "Thank you."

The man quietly left Taehyung.

"Sigh..." Taehyung looked back once again to the direction in which Wendy headed. Maybe this is not the right time to meet her again.

Why am I desperate to see her?

"Aish!" Taehyung scratch his head confusingly and walked back home...

And he completelt forgotten his friend Jimin who's still patiently waiting for his friend who unfortunately heading back home.
