My Blood, Sweat and Tears (Discontinued)

Chapter 4

The next few days were crap. I still hadn't gone back home but I did still go to school. I was trying to avoid Taehyung because of what happened that night. My parents kept on trying to call me but I eventually blocked them. I was a mess.

It had been a week since I had seen Tae but I really needed someone to talk to. My best friend, Jaemin, had gone on a holiday trip with her parents so she wouldn't be back till next week. I had no one.

*RIIIIIIIINNNGGG*

The bell rang for lunchtime and I exited the classroom. As soon as I walked into the cafeteria I saw Taehyung. Our eyes met for less than a millisecond and I broke it off and decided to get my food. When I came back he was gone.

I had finished my lunch but I still had twenty minutes left. I decided to go to the roof and just hang there I peace until lunch was over.

I climbed up the stairs and stood on the roof. The view was truly amazing. Sometimes I liked to come up here and look at the view when I was upset or stressed.

I was so focused in my thoughts that I didn't notice someone approach me.

"Mind if I join?" His deep but gentle voice pierced through me. I got a fright when I heard him.

Taehyung sat beside me and we both stared into nothing, inhaling the sweet fresh air on a summers day.

"Sometimes I come up here to clear my mind" I suddenly said.
"when I need some time to myself or when I just need to let out all of my feelings whether it is crying or screaming." I really appreciate the fact that he didn't stop me from rambling on and just listened to me. It touched me.

"What do you want to do right now? Scream or cry?"

"Neither. I want to... I don't know. My feelings are all mixed up. Why is life so cruel to the innocent?"

He stayed silent for a couple of seconds but then I started talking again.

"Why do I feel so lonely and what happened to happiness? I'm so confused right now. I just want to cry...and...and scream!"

"Then do it! Scream! Cry! Let it all out."

"I...I can't."

"Why not? Who gives any shits if anyone here's you screaming like a maniac!"

"It's not that. It's just...I have no reason to. My energy has been drained. I cannot scream. My tears have run out. I cannot cry.
"I'm sorry if I keep rambling on. I should probably stop." I looked down at the ground slightly embarrassed but it did feel good to just let it all out to someone.

"It's all good. I understand. I felt that once. My dad...uh he..." I could see tears welling up in his eyes. "...he killed my sister then... um...committed suicide."

Just then, I saw a tear fall from his eyes. Then another one. He was crying.

My throat was dry but I managed to choke up the words 'I'm sorry'.

"It's okay." His voice cracked.

My eyes started watering and now I was crying.

"I'm so so sorry and I didn't mean t-"

Before I could finish my sentence, Tae embraces me into a tight, long, meaningful hug.

We both stayed in that position for a while and we both eventually fell asleep.

Taehyung pov

When we woke up, we were still on the roof but it was really dark. Helen checked her phone for the time and her there was fear in her eyes.

"It's 10 o'clock! We skipped school! Oh god oh god oh god oh g-"

"It's alright Helen!" I cut her off.
"I'll just tell the principal that you were sick and I had to take you home."

She breathed a sigh of relief.

She really was something. I chucked. Then I had an idea.

"Why don't we go walk down at the street markets. Plus I do love street food." I said suddenly.

Helen pov

"Why don't we go walk down at the street markets. Plus I do love street food." He looked at me with puppy eyes and I just couldn't resist it. He was so adorable!

Wait! I did not just call him adorable did I? Whatever!

He grabbed my hand and pulled me down. I just laughed at how childish he was being. And it wasn't that fake laugh that I had been putting on for the past week but it was a genuine laugh.

When we reached the street, Tae put his arm around my shoulder. Or I thought so until he put me in a head lock.

"Ya!" I smacked him in the chest and he giggled with that box smile of his. I smiled back.

We walked down the streets in silence but our hands kept skimming against each other.

Suddenly he slipped his hand into mine and he looked at me. Our faces were inches apart. He smiled and I smiled back. I was blushing and I looked away.

"Ooo! Look! That food looks so good!" He was literal drooling over that food. I giggled at his cuteness.

"Ok! Let's go!" He dragged me up to the stall.

~~~~~~                              ~~~~~~

"Ugh I'm so full!" I exclaimed as I held my tummy.

"That was the best food I've ever had!" He said excitedly.

"I should probably get back."

"Where are you staying?"

"At my friends house."

"Would you like me to walk you there."

"No it's ok. Her house isn't far from here."

"Wait!"
He took my phone from me.

"What are you doing?"

"Giving you my number.
"Here."

"Thanks."

"No need to thank me."

"No, I mean for listening to me and keeping me company. Thank you for making me happy again."

He quickly turned with a smile and walked away. I looked at my phone and saw that he put his name as 'My Beautiful Oppa'.

Aish! What can I do with this kid!
