Chapter 4

Kim Taehyung pov

In elementary school it as just me and YoonSoo. Me and her against the world. We did practically everything together...which was to be expected since we were next door neighbors and our parents went to college together.

But then middle school came around. And one summer can change a lot.

The summer before sixth grade changed a lot.

First off, YoonSoo (or Yoonie as I used to call her) took a trip to Malaysia, don't ask me why cause I never knew why.  This resulting in a glitch in our friendship.

She came back with new friends.

Secondly, my mother came down with a bad case of infections which required treatment in another more advanced country.

Thirdly, whether Yoonie knew or not, I had been bullied pretty badly.

As a result, my parents decided to give me one more year in Korea. Another year to end all my connections and to leave everything behind.

That's why that day when Yoonie confessed, I couldn't do anything or say anything. I just stood there until I said I'm sorry and left. Forever.

I didn't blame her for hating me then cause I was kind of a jerk for leaving her hanging.

The next week at the airport, I was surprised when she came to see me. We were about to board the plane when we see her sprint over with her mom.

"You'll come back...right?" She whispered

I smiled faintly, "I will...I promise...."

Then I left

I come back now because first of all, my mom had passed away back in America and my dad and stepmother wanted to establish a new life in Korea with my stepsister, but they wanted to send me first to get a head start on my education.

Secondly, I missed my homeland and because I was now a black belt in three different martial arts, I wouldn't worry about being bullied anymore......

The fact that I'd be seeing her today made me feel confused inside.

I felt excited to see my best friend whom I didn't see in years but also I was confused inside...
What if I fall in love with her again? What if  she still hates me after all these years

Oh well.....the plane is landing we'll see how it goes.
