The Better Days With You

CHAPTER 35

HANA

It was a gloomy Thursday. Even the sun show itself today. Like it's understand how we feel today. I look at Taehyung, standing in front of the new grave with his black suit. He's standing there silently, ignoring the condolences people gave him.

The boys and Yoojung are busy with the guests, while me, I'm too worried about Taehyung. I want to be by his side, but at the same time, I also want to give him a time for himself.

After a few minutes, I walk to him. "Taehyung," He didn't answer nor react. A sigh escaped my lips. When I look at the surrounding, people already going home and it's only me, Taehyung, Yoojung and the guys were left.

I hesitantly grabbed his hand and locked with mine. "let's go, Tae." I gently tugged him. I felt he tightened his hand, making me smiled a little as we slowly walk away from the grave. Taehyung's eyes never left from grandma's grave, until it disappeared from his sight.

The boys and Yoojung already waiting for us at the entrance, looking so worried to their friend and I can't help but to feel the same too. "are you going to be okay?" I hesitantly asked him. Taehyung just nodded, silently as we reached the other. "the boys are going to be with you." I said and turned to the boys. "call me if you guys need anything." they nodded as we left.

I look up to the sky, before looking at Taehyung back. I hope he's going to be okay. I prayed.

I remember when the doctor announced grandma has left us, Taehyung didn't cry. I was the one who cried the most with Yoojung and the boys. He didn't shed his tears that time. And when those men bring grandma's coffin down, he also didn't cry. While Yoojung and I took time to stopped from crying.

Then, I realized something. I didn't saw Taahyung's relatives or his parents at the graveyard. Did he called someone from his relatives? I realized, I still don't know who he is and his story. But i know, behind his silence and cold attitude, he was dying inside right now.

"he's not eating and he has't left from grandma's room since we back. He locked himself there for hours already. Hana, I'm scared." Worried held in Jungkook's voice. 

I've been in this situation before. The denial and longing. It's really hurt when I was on that phase. On that phase, he need someone to help him up.

"I'll be there in ten minutes." I said before hung up. I quickly slipped my jeans and wrapped myself with my Nike sweater before grabbing my keys and phone and ran to the door. "I'm going to Taehyung's." Yoojung nodded, giving a small smile.

Ten minutes running, I arrived at Taehyung's house. The house looked somehow, died too. "is he still in there?" the boys nodded silently. I took a few deep breaths before knocking the door. "Taehyung?" I leaned my ears to the door.

There's shuffling sound inside and followed by sobs. I then worriedly turned to the boys, and my tears unconsciously dropped. I knock the door again and this time, harder. "Taehyung, open the door!" I yelled, but his cry from inside become louder, making the boys panic, calling him to open the door too.
