2687 Miles Away | KTH

Prolog

It was all started when I was being an exchange student at Seoul National University, South Korea.

I was sitting at the park outside my faculty then there was a bee coming to me and making me jolted. So I was standing, grabbing my hot coffee all of sudden but unluckily, I stumbled and my hot coffee just spilled into someone's book.

That, someone, was glaring at me like I had done something unforgivable. Well, I mean of course spilling a hot coffee into a thick calculus book is a big deal but I didn't think that incisive look was necessary.

I was bowing down to him and said sorry many times but all he could respond was walking past through me, ignored me such as I was just a wind passed by.

What a cocky man. Really.

But who knows about faith? That cocky man was the same man whom I was talking on the phone right now.

I was while staring at the figure of him which I placed it on my desk, feeling happy to hear his voice even most of the time just "hmm" coming out of his mouth.

"Are you tired Taehyung?"

"Yes."

"If you tired, why don't you end this conversation?"

"I would if I can."

"Owh. You can, don't force yourself."

"Okay."

I sighed. He was always like that, being so flat.

"Okay. Good night Taehyung. Saranghae."

"Hmm."

"Taehyung!" Right before he ended our call, I called his name. He seems like letting the phone hang on.

"I just want to tell you this. This morning, a man just confessed to me. I didn't reject him nor I answered it."

"You love him?"

"No."

"Then just reject him already."

"Why? I don't think you even care about me."

"Well, I'm staying late when I just slept for 2 hours last night just to hear your voice is not something you can call as 'care'?"

I let a little smile peaking through my mouth.

"Okay. I will reject him tomorrow. You can sleep now Taehyung, good night."

"Just hang the phone on."

"Why?"

"Let me make sure that you will sleep after this conversation."

I couldn't handle it. I let out a big smile then felt my cheek burning.

"Okay."

I started to move to my bed then laying down with the phone staying by my ear. He didn't say anything neither did I. Only the sound of the wind accompanied us until my eyes felt so heavy and ready to sleep. I slept just right after he said,

"Bogoshipda. Saranghae."
