The Better Days With You

CHAPTER 41

For a second, the house went silent. The tension is so thick even blade can't cut it. Without another word, Taehyung lift his feet and left the house. "I'm sorry, excuse me." Hana bowed to the couple and chase Taehyung out, ignoring the looks from the guests.

When she's outside, there is no sign of him. It's like, he suddenly disappeared. Fear attacked Hana all of sudden.

"where's Taehyung?" Hoseok asked as they one by one appeared outside with her. Hana shake her head as tears formed in her eyes. "we've got to find him." said Yoongi. Even him look worried.

Still clad with their tux and dress, they went to find Taehyung. Seokjin once said that Taehyung has a habit hurting himself when he's feeling stressful or depressed and that didn't even help the fear in her. All she can think is his safety.

They split to find the boy and Hana is with Jungkook. The people on the streets giving them weird look while they running aimlessly , but that doesn't bother them.

Where is he?

Hana keep chanting in her head.

Jungkook's phone suddenly rang and he quickly answered. Looking at his expression, Hana felt her heart beating wildly. Then he nodded his head with an 'OK' before ending the call. 

"they found him."

*****

Taehyung groaned when his friends put him kn the bed. He's covered with bruises and scratches when they found him in an dark alley near a building. Both Hana and Yoojung gave the boys clothes that may fit to them and asked to change Taehyung too.

"I'll call the doctor." Hana said before leaving the room to the balcony, sniffing. She called the doctor first before calling her mom.

"his parents worried about him, Hana."

"I know. But right now, it's not the best time to meet. I'll talk to him first and I'll call you."

Her mom sighed.

"hello, Hana?" it's Taehyung's mom panic voice.

"Uh.. Hello, Mrs.Kim." she greeted back.

"how's my boy?"

"he's okay and resting." she was unsure to tell her the truth. But then, it is his mother. So she decided to tell her what happened.

"oh my god." all his mother managed.

"I'll call later when everything went well and I'll try to talk to him." Hana said looking back to the room.

"Thank you, Hana."

"no problem, Mrs.Kim." the girl said grimly before ending the call.

TAEHYUNG
My eyes fluttered opened by the blinding sun rays that managed through the curtains. I felt my whole body sore and my hand feel heavy. Looking at my side is Hana holding my hand and I can't help but to admire her sleeping face.

I love her. It's been a while I fell in love with her as I'm not gonna lie, I feel like I don't deserve her. But my selfishness told me that she's mine. I stared at our joined hands while my mind drifted to last night incident.

My heart ached. It's hurt. Really, really hurt.  Me and grandmother suffered after they left without any money or help. I feel burning in my chest when I saw them last night and for a moment there, I can't help but to hate them.

"Taehyung?" snapping from my thoughts, I look at my girl.

"c-can you let go?" I saw her uncomfortable expression before I noticed, I was gripping her hand tightly.

"shit! I'm sorry." I said, quickly letting her hand go before take it back and rubbing it softly.

"I'm sorry, I was just... I just.." sigh.

Then I feel her soft hand rubbing my cheek, looking at me with a soft smile that make my heart warm and immediately my tensed body, relaxed.

"it's okay. You can tell me if you want to. That's if you comfortable."

She's an angel. My angel.

"My parents abandoned me with grandma when I was five. Freaking five years old, Hana. They choose their own career than their own flesh." I chocked. "when grandma sick, they never visit her or call. Even the day grandma died, they didn't go to her funeral. What kind of children are they? All this time she waited for them to come home, but they never did. But suddenly, they appeared. Smiling like there's nothing happened. Like they didn't do anything."

I look at Hana and I'm sure my vulnerability is showing. But I don't care.

"I was going to scream in front of their face, but somehow I managed to control myself. That's why I left quickly. It's a torture seeing their face. Harsh, but it's true."

I felt Hana's soft hand on my cheek, creasing softly. I leaned to the warmth. Lifting my head just to see her red watery eyes looking back at me, then her thumb wiping my tears. Hell, I don't even know I was crying.

"I may not understand what you've been through. But I believe they had their own reason."

I scoffed.

"reason? It's because they love their own job than me."

Han shake her head, showing that she's not agree with me. And then she smile.

How can I mad at her?

"how about, you hear them first?" I was going to object her, but she quickly cut me.

"Taehyung, they left you with grandma doesn't mean they don't love you." she started. "for example. My parents also used to left me for their business. Sure I was mad and sad. But my nanny always said that they work for the better future. For my future. She also said that my parents love me and there is no way they would forget me."

I was jealous, to be honest. She had parents that always love her. I look at our hands, circling my thumb on her wrist.

"Taehyung," she lift my head to look at her.

"from the look of your mother last night, I know they still love you-no scratch that, they love you. Even your father was close to breaking down. I saw how lost their eyes last night. And remember, it's impossible for a mother to forgot her own child. After carrying you for 9 months and bearing the hurt giving you birth, I know she loves you."

Hearing this, I can't help but to cry and Hana lend me her shoulder, throwing her arms around mine. While I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her close to me. "hear them first, okay?" I nodded.

Lifting my head from her shoulder, I sealed my lips with her.

I know it's been a while, and I'm sorry. Hihii
