Memories of Spring | K.th & K.js

v.i

When the clock stroke by 6:00 pm, Jisoo came around to look for Taehyung. She wanted to go at the town center so bad because she don't want to miss the flying of lanterns.

Her neutral expression curved a smile when she saw his broad figure sitting on the sand near the seashore.

"Your thoughts are too deep to be swimmed." Jisoo soon faked a laugh after realizing that she maybe threw an out-of-humor joke.

The serious faced boy and gave the girl beside him an expresionless look.

"What? Am I still that strange to you? I'm nice and adorable~" Jisoo blurted out then blinked her eyes, hoping her charms would work on this tough one.

"Are you 'really' fine now?" He somehow emphasized the word 'really'. He knew she was lying the other time.

"Of course!"

Silence followed aftwerwards.

Taehyung sighed before choosing to break the tranquility between them.

"Do you," He clasped his lower clothing and breathed once more.

"D-Do you ever felt being unvalued and unappreciated?"

"No," He pursed his lips, taking back what he have been said. "Forget it."

Jisoo frowned before speaking. "Yah, better finish what you want to say. It's rude to leave a person hanging, alright?" She hissed with a bossing tone.

He was taken a back by her sudden scary act. The tensed boy first gulped then cleared his throat. "I felt unrecognized by the people I cared the most. From my parents to my friends. They're all the same. I keep screaming for their help when I needed them the most but all they can do is watch and let me suffer." He pronounced each word with full emphasis.

"My parents were separated eversince I was born. I get that there's no love existing between them but, why do they have to make me feel that I'm their biggest mistake? I spent my childhood crying and locking myself up because no one wants to play with me since my Mom works as a prostitute." Tears started to build up in the faltered boy's eyes.

Jisoo kept her lips split after hearing his pitiful past. 'He must have been lonely'.

"I never made friends with anyone. I dread that if they found out my Mom's job, they will loath me." Taehyung tried to smile whilst tears directly weep from his eyes.

"Unfornately, fate brought me to people who have the same life as mine. We became friends and had fun. An endless one in able to forget how miserable we are."

"A family was built out of broken souls. We were each other's comrade. We promised to be there whenever anyone is in need. But how ironic it is because the ones who I cherished the second time locked me again in vagueness."

To Taehyung's surprise, Jisoo placed her hand on the top of his. It made the fragile boy turn his head to her side.

"I'm here." Her voice was full of sincerity, so is her face with a gentle smile planted on it.

Two words suddenly became so powerful. It felt like his baggages were lightened as well as his heart that was unexpectedly fluttering.
