THE EXOTIC DANCER CHAPTER 022✔ "Authentic"
Despite clearing the air with him things still seem a tad tense between the two of us in the car. Even with the jokes and playful banter i still feel bad about the things i said.
I was upset and worried, that in no way excuses the things i said but i think all people can understand how emotions can make us act unlike ourselves. And that was out of character for me.
No matter how me and Taehyung may clash opinions wise i would never want to hurt him.
He is a nice guy and i was cruel to him.
In cases like this, i find myself feeling guilty until i find some way to make up for what i did. I don't know how i could make it up to Taehyung though.
His hands grip the steering wheel as he follows the directions i had given him to my place. I had thought of maybe giving him the address a block away from me like i usually do with people. Im not too fond of people im not close with knowing where i live, but even though the thought came to mind i decided to be honest with him.
I at least owe him that.
I tap my nails upon the car door, looking out the window with my forehead pressed against it. I find this side of town so fascinating. Despite the chaos within the place i can't help but feel mesmerized by it.
I am the type of person who only gets around here while im passing through.
Allure sits at a weird location, but i guess that's good for business. Its a bit in the middle between the good and bad part of town. Of course, the land favors the better put together side of town which explains our type of clientele but its not as if that is the only type of people we get in our establishment.
When im there its pretty late though, ive never really spent actual time on this side of the city. What would i do in such a place?
Its strange how an area so close to me could be like a foreign land.
"I really am sorry though..." The statement comes from my lips with no warning. Even i am surprised with the sudden apology.
I pinch my eyes shut in embarrassment before pulling my head back to see Taehyungs reaction.
He doesn't seem very affected by my words, that still smile remaining on his face. He looks to me and shrugs. "Its fine Shailene, honestly. I think the judgmental things we both said stems from a lack of information. Neither of us intended to be cruel but sadly sometimes that intention isn't enough sometimes. Im not mad though... if i were in your shoes maybe i would have assumed the same things. Maybe you would have too if roles were reversed."
