《🥪》i can't accept it

Next morning when on my way to work I saw him sleeping with my coat on. The coat looked pretty big on him and he was just adorable. He pouts in his sleep by the way. I tried to suppress the urge to take a picture. Who would take a picture of a homeless person? It doesn't matter if you love them or not.

Maybe most people think that saying I love someone just from looking at them once is definitely weird. Maybe I need help. Maybe I am way creepier than I intend to, and I never intend to be creepy. But as long as my friends tolerate me like that, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.

I bought him some food and left it next to him because I didn't want to wake him up. He looked so peaceful how can someone look like a masterpiece even when he's not trying?!

Right, back to work, yeah.. I told Jin about him too.

"Tae he doesn't sound very decent" he said unsure. I described how he looks and where I found him.

"Jin come on, he's been living on the streets, how would he look decent?" I said and rolled my eyes.

"Fine fine but do you know anything about him?"

"Look, I just met him yesterday, of course I don't know anything about him. What I know for now is that he's cute, both asleep and awake, and that I love him." I proudly answered. That grin I had when I said the last part was quite unsure but I could bet my life that the fact that I'm in love with a homeless guy is true.

\/A week later\/

So this thing with buying my crush food has been going on for a week and I can definitely see that he looks healthier now. He was again asleep this morning when I got to the store. But when I went to give him a sandwich and a water bottle he woke up and made eye contact with me.

I'm definitely okay after that by the way.

He searched for something in his pockets -my coat's pockets because I convinced him to keep it- and took out some money. He pointed them my way.

"This is all I could g-get this week... P-please take it. It's because I'm.. grateful for the food. You wasted so much every day for me.." he said and looked down.

I felt my eyes get teary because that was so sweet, sad and wholesome at the same time. I'm a sensible person too. I really didn't want to refuse when he's being like that but I just couldn't. I didn't waste the money. I wanted him to eat at least two meals a day and that was my own decision.

"I can't take it, I'm sorry. I didn't waste anything. I just want to make sure you're healthy and you don't have to pay me back for anything." I assured him and offered him a smile but he didn't return it.

"Please! I'll feel bad about it" he begged and this time I swear I wanted to hug him so tight, but instead I answered quite fast.

"Please keep them. I have more than enough money already. You shouldn't worry about it. Now, I'll go to work and buy you something again when I come back. Eat well!" I smiled at him, ruffled his hair and rushed to the company.

On my way to work I thought how humble one must be to do that with his circumstances. That really surprised me. Those money were barely enough to buy a sandwich that I buy him daily, but he still wanted to give all of it to me. That made me so sad.

Then, to clear my mind -or to make it even messier- , I thought about what I just did. I ruffled his hair. His hair was kind of oily but I literally felt like I have no worries whatsoever. I feel like I did some progress by doing that, for whatever it's worth.

"Awww that's so sweet" Jin said and also looked like he wanted to cry.

"I know, right? And I feel bad because he probably feels bad too because I didn't take his money. What if he thinks I don't want anything from him because he's a homeless beggar? What if he won't talk to me because I didn't take his money? What if-"

"Or~ what if he's eating his food peacefully and thinking about what a good person you are?" Jin interrupted me.

"Oh my God do you really think so?" I asked with eyes shining of hope.

"I mean that's what I think, I don't know about him. Do you still not know his name?"

"Ugh not yet... I'll ask him today when I buy him dinner."

"Thank you.." the boy mumbled when I gave him the cupcakes.

"Hey uh, I hope I don't make you uncomfortable or something" I said and scratched the back of my neck.

"Ah no no, you're one of the kindest people I've ever met." he said fast and excitedly which surprised the both of us. He smiled with his cute bunny teeth and looked down. "I-I mean yeah.."

Anyone could call me a kind person but when he says it I swear I want to throw a big ass party right then and there. Anyway that's besides the point.

"Do you mind if you tell me your name?" I asked and managed to maintain eyecontact with him.

"J..kook" he whispered.

"Huh?" Yes I'm deaf, deal with it.

"Jeon Jungkook" he said it louder this time.

"Kim Taehyung" I smiled and shook his hand.

His name suits him. It's kind of weird how the names our parents give us when we're born match us very good. Well,, not everyone agrees but I do. I mean I can't imagine myself with another name. Imagine if my name was Josh, or Chris. Nevermind, I don't want to think about that.

"Jimin what do boys like?"

"Tae you're literally a boy"

"Yes but like, a boy younger than me. He looks younger."

"Do I look like I know people younger than me?"

"Isn't Yoongi younger than you?"

"....Tae what the hell of course he's not younger than me. And you and I are the same age so he's not younger than any of us."

"You're irrelevant Jimin." I said and hung up. This was so hard. I really didn't know what to do for Jungkook..
