Her Neonate

서른 30

"Damnit...still not here" Taehyung groans not hearing Angel's laughs or seeing Alani walking around in her favorite night gown.
He walks back into the room, his heart stop for a moment, all of the drawers were emptied and their suitcases were gone.

Gone...

Everything...was gone...

"N-no" Taehyung looks around the room, "No!" He fell to his knees and checked under the bed, praying they'd be underneath grinning mischievously at him.
When he saw no one he pulls out his phone and calls her.

Voicemail...

"Alani please, just call me back, what-what happened? Why did you guys leave? Was it something I said or- Did I do something, please just tell me" he ends the message still pacing back and forth, in and out of the room.

"Little cousin open up!"

Taehyung wets his lips as he contemplated opening the door, "Hey I know you're in there what you and your girl doing something, I can wait a few minutes out her" Namjoon teased, Taehyung runs his hand down his face and walks over to the door.

"I-I'm right here man" he exhales before he opens the door, Namjoon detects the discomfort Taehyung is in, he swallows his guilt and questions him.

"Alani...She just left, her and Angel..." Taehyung said, "I think I might have done something the night I got drunk at your house...she won't even answer me" his voice wavered as he plopped himself on the couch.

"Did she at least leave a note?"

Taehyung was to deep in thought to even hear what Namjoon said, the elder took it upon himself to sneak off into the bedroom and places a piece of folded paper on the dresser.
"I-uh hey look I think I found a note!"
Taehyung got up and ran into the room, "Look right there" Namjoon points, his hand shaking slightly.

Taehyung picks it up.

' Hi it's me.

You probably don't want to hear from me but I need to tell you this Taehyung, I just felt like I was using you and I never want to feel like that.
Me and angel will miss you a lot, but this is for the best, please just delete my number.
By now I might have already deleted yours,please don't be sad.

                    Goodbye Taehyung '

Namjoon chewed on his lip as he watched Taehyung read, his jaw clenched as he continued down.

"Well what does it say?"

"She left because...she felt guilty?" Taehyung huffs in disbelief, "I thought we both had an understanding, everything was equal how did she- why would she even-"

"Maybe she just felt bad for living in your house" Namjoon said, Taehyung day on the bed, "There was nothing I could do to make her comfortable? All of this was just a waste of my time, growing a connection with angel and fa-falling in love with Alani?"

"You what?" Namjoon said with narrowed eyes, "I know it's crazy-"

"Crazy?! She was only here for two months and you're in love with her?!"

Taehyung looks up at Namjoon, "What's it to you anyways?! It's none of your business if I fell in love with her or not! I'm not a fucking kid anymore I am a grown man!"

He shoves Namjoon, Namjoon shoves him back, "Just because you're living on your own and was nearly trapped into fatherhood doesn't mean you're an adult! You better watch who the fuck you're talking to!"

Taehyung clenched his fist, "Get out..."

"Why?! So you can cry over that bitch that left you?!"

Taehyung scowled "Don't call her a bitch!" He lunged at Namjoon who swiftly dodged it, Taehyung continued to swing at him and Namjoon continued to dodge them.
"Fight me!" Taehyung screams, "Fucking fight me!"
Taehyung's eyes finally boiled over with his tears, Namjoon watched as he broke down.

"What happened...? What did I fucking do-Why did she leave?!" He cried, Namjoon carefully pulls his cousin into a hug.
"It's alright...Its alright" he squeezes his eyes tying to push the guilt to back of his mind, Taehyung will think him later.
