The Better Days With You

CHAPTER 29

For two days the boys have been searching for Hana, but they didn't found her. At school, even at the boutique where she and Yoojung work. But still, there's no sign of her.

"where did she go?" Jungkook sighed. His brothers just stared at the floor, not knowing what to do anymore. Even Taehyung can't think of anything, except worrying about the girl.

"even Yoojung don't want to corporate with me-I mean, us. And she's also looked so different right now." Jimin muttered, looking at the pale floor.

He have been trying to talk with Yoojung, but the girl seems to avoid him. A sigh escaped from the boy.

It's true that Yoojung had turned to someone that is really different from the old Yoojung. After she bursted angry to the boys, she made a promise to herself that she need to be a tough girl.

She doesn't afraid to anyone anymore. To be honest, all of this because of Hana. She opened Yoojung's eyes because Hana had always defend her when someone bully her or does something bad to her.

Yoojung doesn't wear her glasses anymore, she wore contact lens as Hana told her. She also wore make up to make herself look bold.

But, she still keep herself quiet, just like before. Except when someone bully her, this time, she took care of herself. Even Hana's mother always give her some advices to keep her tough. And to be honest, Yoojung like the new her.

"we shouldn't did that." Hoseok pouted. Seokjin who seated beside him, patted his back and gave a small smile. But deep inside, he's also feel guilty.

His father told him what happened to Hana's family, then he told to the boys.

They ignored Hana because just to show her how upset they are to her for not believing in them. But they didn't know their 'punishment' towards Hana would turned into this.

Hana disappeared and Yoojung avoiding them.

"what should we do now? They clearly avoiding us." said Seokjin, hugging himself.

Only a quiet respond he got from the boys. None of them trying to speak after that.

*****

After the school ends, Taehyung went to the hospital to visit his grandmother before he goes to his work.

As he walk closer to the room where his grandmother admitted, he can hear his grandma laughing with someone. The closer he got, he can hear the voice clearly.

It's the familiar melodious laugh that he's been missing for.

Slowly, Taehyung opened the door in front of him before entering the room. He wore his usual blank face to cover his nervous stance. He tried to ignore his heart heat that beating frantically inside him. He felt his heart is going to jump out from his rib cage. Once he shut the door, the laughter also died

Calm down, calm down. He chanted mentally.

"oh, Taehyungie." his grandma smiled. But at the same time, her eyes also flickered to the girl in front of her, fidgeting on her seat.

Taehyung can see her tense from behind, and that made him more sad. For a moment, the room pregnant with silence.

Mrs Kim who feel the tension between the two teenagers, smiled  understandingly. "is this a love quarrel I sense?" she chuckled.

Both Taehyung and Hana looked at the woman with wide eyes.

"I-I t-think I s-should leave." Hana said looking at Taehyung's grandma. "I'll visit you again next time." Hana got up and give the woman a warm and tight hug, which Mrs Kim returned it.
