After they finish their food, they grab their stuff and off to the bus station. They haven’t say a word since their last conversation at the restaurant. They wait for the bus at the nearest bus station.

“Tae, look here” Jennie said. Taehyung turns his head and look at jennie who’s holding her phone to take a selfie.

“Smile~” jennie said while smiling at the camera. Taehyung just followed her and make a V pose. Jennie took about 10 pictures with different pose.

“why do you have to take a lot of pic?” Taehyung asked

“as a sign of memory when I live here and I want to put it in my album for this year” Jennie said while checking the pictures on her phone.

“you’re leaving already?!” Taehyung said with a shocked face. Jennie chuckled.

“what are you talking about? I just got here.. I’m not leaving yet…” jennie said and her smile suddenly disappear.

“what do you mean yet?” Taehyung asked while raising his eyebrow.

“Nothing… oh another thing.. are you gonna stay at our place again tonight or what?” jennie said trying to avoid Taehyung question.

“Ah.. about that.. no, I’m gonna stay at my place tonight there’s something I need to do..” Taehyung said.

Suddenly the bus came and jennie didn’t have a chance to respond to Tae’s answer. They got into the bus and sat at their seat.

After a few minutes, they finally arrived at the house and Taehyung said goodbye to jennie as he’s going back to his house. It’s almost 7.00 p.m.

Jennie’s pov

It was a tiring day. I put all my stuff in my bedroom and realise something. Taehyung forgot the jacket that I bought for him. I facepalm myself and lays on my bed.

“I don’t even know if he’s gonna come here tomorrow or not…maybe I should call him.. he couldn’t go that far by now”

I grabbed my phone and called him. But he didn’t answer the call.

“What is he doing? How can he not answer my call if he’s all alone by now… or is it..”

“Did he even saved my number??” I furrowed my eyebrow.

“whatever, I just wait until he come here to pick it up by himself”

I went into the bathroom to clean myself and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Taehyung’s pov

I was on my way to my home, I walked a few block and notice a figure that is following me. I stopped my pace and wait for it to show itself.

“What are you doing?” I said. “I know you’re following me”

There’s no one else at the street. Just me and that person who’s following me.

“hehehe… I can’t believe you still managed to know that I was following you”. It was Taeyong . *(I’m sorry I love Taeyong)

“Why are you following me?” I said

“Nothing.. I was just curious about how’s your life right now.. about your health.. family.. lover perhaps??” Taeyong said with a smirk.

Did he know about jennie too? Or he’s just messing with me.

“Get a life Taeyong! I didn’t bother your life.. so you should do the same too..” I said then turned my back against him.

“Why are you living like this? Your life could’ve been better if you just continue being a hitman and worked with ‘Him’.. he will pay you a fortune if you continue doing your job” He said.

“That job is the reason why I’m living like this.. I’m happier by living like this rather that getting my hands dirty by working with that guy” I said.

“is that so? Or… you were happy because that granny helped you that day isn’t it? And recently I saw her granddaughter… I’ll tell you what, she’s good” He said with a smirk.

I clenched my fist trying to hold my anger. Then, my phone rang.

“Ohh.. would you look at that.. that must be her.. what are waiting for? Answer it… don’t forget to introduce me to her” he said then laughed.

I can’t hold my anger anymore. I ran towards him and throw a fist at his face. He was on his knee holding his face. He laughed while blood is coming out of his mouth.

“Yes!! I miss this Taehyung! You’ve got better now..”He said.

He get up and tried to fight back. I managed to dodge his attack and kicked his leg making him fall down.

He get up again and throw a fist at my stomach. I was pushed to the ground and he threw a fist at my face. I pushed him and hit his head hard. We continued fighting and suddenly we heard a police siren coming near us.

“We’ll continue this later Taehyung” Taeyong said and ran off.

I ran quickly to my home. It was a tiny home on top of an apartment. The house was messy. It have a few furniture.

I sat on my couch and stare at the ceiling.

“what am I doing with my life”

I rubbed my eyes and went to the bathroom to clean all of the blood that I got in the fight. There’s a scar on my forehead. I cleaned it with some water and put some medicine on it. I cover it up with some plaster and hid it under my hair.

“I hope no one notice it”

I went straight away to rest on my bed. Suddenly I remembered the call that I got. I checked my phone and Taeyong was right. Jennie was calling me earlier. The contact was named  ‘NINI’ appeared on his log.

“What did she want from me?” I tried calling her but her line was busy.

Maybe she was calling someone else. I put my phone on the table top and went to the living room. At the wall there’s a picture of my family when we used to lived happily. I saw my mom, dad, me  and my sister Sandara smiling in the picture.

We used to live happily when dad’s company was doing okay. Until one day his workers sabotage him and make he lose all of his company that he worked hard for. He became an alcoholic since he lost his company. Mom has to work as a farmer to gain money for the family. My sister and I studied hard so that we can change our family life since that day.

But everything went worse when our mom was diagnosed with cancer. She can’t continue her work and the hospital bill is increasing. Dad became an aggressive man since that day. He kept blaming himself that all of this is happening because of him. He decided to left all of us as he thought that would make everything better. But it wasn’t it make everything become worse.

Sandara has to go work as a part-timer at the grocery store after school while I’m working as a part-timer at the gas station. We have to work because our mom was sick in the hospital. But after a few months the doctor said that our mom couldn’t do it anymore. Both of us cried and hugged our mother for the last time. We become orphans after our mom passed away and our father left us.
Things were hard for me and Sandara. That’s why I decided to work as a hitman for Bang Shih yuk After my sister knows about it she was disappointed. I said I do it for her, but she was mad at me and left me alone after that. I couldn’t find her anymore. I was left alone until I’ve met Mrs.Kim. A nice and warm hearted grandma.

I usually wrote something important on a notebook so that I can remember it back. I’ve write down all of the dates and things that happen that day and who I’ve met. I only write important tragedy and memory on that notebook. Today, I add another important person in my life in that notebook, Jennie.

Just by mentioning her name I didn’t realise that I was smiling all alone.
“Am I falling for her? For real?”
