Paper Hearts (part one?)

[Context] Jungkooks mom is mentally ill and shes currently housed getting treatment. She was the college's art professor.

The bell rang, seconds later loud voices and footsteps echoed and vibrated the hallway. Jungkook waited for everyone to go to the lunchroom before he left his class. He was the only one in the class except for the teacher anyway. It was the last day of college. Later in the day was graduation, he was getting his degree in teaching and art.

He walked up the stairway till he reached the top floor. The large old wooden doors and the abandoned hallway behind it was the only place in this college without modern technology.

He pulled out a skeleton key his mother gave him before she got sick. He unlocked the door and slowly opened it.

He walked carefully down the messy destroyed hallway caused by his mother's first breakdown. Over summer builders are going to come up and clean up the hallway. There was only one classroom on this floor. His mothers. He kept her classroom clean cherishing everything his mother did before her breakdowns. He walked in and set his bag down on the floor next to the table in the front.

He walked to the cabinets and pulled out white origami paper. He grabbed a ruler and a scoring tool from the drawers by the window. He placed them at the table and flicked the radio om. He sat at the table and carefully marked and scored the paper. Singing to himself as the music plays quietly.

Pictures I'm living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories replaying in my dull mind
Oh, I hate this part paper hearts
And ill hold a piece of yours
Don't think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you wont forget-

He was cut off by a small shuffle in the doorway. He looked up to see a boy hes only spoken too a few times. Startled he covered his face. "How long have you been standing there?!" Jungkook mumbled. The boy walked up to him, "Only since you sat down. Don't be shy though, you're voice is really nice, sounds just like your mothers." Jungkook removed his hands showing his flushed face.

"You heard her sing while drawing havent you?" Tae responds, "I was one of your mother's students, Jungkook. We've all heard her sing" The boy brought a chair over next to Jungkook. "Oh, and my name is Taehyung. I knew your name but i remembered i never introduced myself."

"Wanna see what im doing?" Jungkook took the lid off a large box behind him. Taehyung looked in to see hundreds of paper origami hearts.

Tae looked up and Jungkook and gave him a shy smile. "They're not as perfect as my mother's but I try" Taehyung looked into jungkooks glossy eyes. "Your mother taught me how to make them. Would you mind if I make some too?" Jungkook passed him the paper, he offered the ruler and scoring tool but Tae shook his head. "You don't need those, As long as it makes the heart shape is how i see it. It doesn't matter if their perfect.

Jungkook watched as Taehyung carefully folded the papers into different shape and size hearts. He did one after the other.

Jungkook chuckled at the wonky origami, "Did your mom ever paint them cuz i like painting them!" Taehyung face light up with a boxy smile as Jungkook shook his head.

Tae launched up, grabbing the acrylic paint out the cabinet. He snatched the paintbrushes out the cup they sat in and 2 palettes and placed them on a bigger table close to the window.

Jungkook got up and jogged over to the sink got a bowl of water and a towel to clean the brushes. He carefully set it down on the table.

"Is it ok if we paint these? They look so sad they could use some color!" Taehyung said as he picked up the box of Jungkook's hearts. Jungkook nodded with a shy smile.
