1995
It took him almost a year to think thoroughly about asking his long term girlfriend about marrying him. Is this really what he wanted? God knows he tried it a lot of times already but he mostly chickened out.
Asking a proposal to someone isn't that fucking easy but tonight he was determined to do it. He reserved a seat on the finest restaurant in the city and prepared everything he will say to her. It was now or never.
Because damn forbids him but his strange feelings for his friend is somewhat getting stronger. He needed to get that out from his system because any possible time right now? He will lose his fucking mind.
Taehyung wore his best suit and even went to the hair salon earlier to have a new haircut. It was all well planned and it was going smoothly, the only thing left to do on his tasks is to fetch Irene at their house.
And the brunette who's standing on his doorstep right now is not on his list and more definitely not a part of his plan. Taehyung's eyes were wide as saucers, he didn't expect the sudden visit of his friend after the few months of avoiding each other for an unknown reason.
"Lalisa..." There's something in her eyes that he couldn't read. She was different not in her appearances because she still look radiant and beautiful like she always has but her eyes. It was as if she longed for him within those months of being apart.
"Do you happen to know that someone?" Taehyung shot her a confused gaze meeting her solemn ones. "Do you think he will really come to show me how that thing works?" And then it hit him, Lisa has been holding the words he says to her. She has been waiting, of course... because even with the coldest and toughest heart, we humans are all curious of that little thing called 'love'.
"Will it be magical like in the movies?" She asked him with a tight lipped smile as her gaze dragged down to the bouquet of red roses in his hand.
Taehyung gulped, he hesitated wether to hide the flowers on his back or do nothing at all and the brunette is asking her about magic... damn nothing of that is real but being with the right person alone gives you the perfect illusion of fantasy.
That's what he wanted to say and he also wanted to stay but he can't. Because wanting her in the first place is wrong. They are friends, he can't risk their friendship and then he is also friends with her boyfriend which makes it more sucks.
"Lalis... why are you really here?" Taehyung sighed, as he felt his head throbbed so he pinched the bridge of his nose. All this planning and her showing up almost ruining everything he had perfectly planned gives him headache and he hated it. But he also fucking hate the fact that he misses her so much, all he wanted to do is pull her close and wrapped his arms around her tiny body. So that's basically double shit.
