Spring Day (BTS Series #2: V)

Chapter 7

Stigma

"Play that part again."

*Taehyung plays the saxophone*

"Don't be to reckless."

"You should always play it gracefully."

"Make sure you won't ruin our foundation day performance."

I was preparing to play the piano but what's new? I would always look at Taehyung. Sometimes people here in the music club are too hard on him. I don't even know what's the problem, Taehyung will be always respectful to them and trying his best.

It's been weeks of practicing for the foundation day, and I think Taehyung is doing great. He is a fast learner and I know he can improve more as the days goes by. I always motivate him to improve his voice and he does every night. He is trying his best to fit in. I would listen to him while looking at the stars and I don't know what moment I could wish for.

It's scary that I'm being used to this kind of routine where Taehyung will always be there beside me, taking care of me, talking with me, laughing with me and always being with me. We've been very close for a very short span of time because it's not hard to be with him. He is so kind, so big hearted and so witty. He is my happy pill and I don't know how dull my life could be the moment I will go back to Korea.

Taehyung was right. He had no girl friends and even boy friends aside from Kang Dae and Jung Hwa. I felt how students here discriminate him. Everybody knows he is a son of a farmer and they think he's disgusting and poor. That's why it's awkward for him to get along with them even in our classroom. I saw how they looked at him with pure disgust and insult. They don't know how pure Taehyung is. They missed that in their life.

"Taehyung ah! Sun screen!"

I would always take care of him. I would always put sun screen whenever we go along with our physical education practical.

I smiled while putting some sun screen to his face. His face is getting better. I knew it! Our skin care routine is very awesome! I should buy tons of it when I go back to Seoul again.

"Oh my god ewww."

"Why is she even touching his face like that."

"Is this Lara girl serious? How can she lower her standards like this?"

"She must be crazy getting along with that boy."

"He's just using her for sure."

"She's too pretty for him."

While I was putting some for his face, I felt his hands on my waist.

What.

I blushed.

"Yah--- what are you--"

I felt him knot his jacket on my waist so it covers my legs. We are using shorts today for PE.

"Why is this too short for you?" He looks mad.

"Duh because it is shorts, not long." I chuckled. I have pretty long legs that's why.

"Tsk. Everyone is looking at your legs and I hate it." He said while putting some sunscreen on my face.

"Why do you hate it?" I smirked.

"Do you even have to asked that?"  He sounds angry.

"Ehem ehem." Kang Dae and Jung Hwa teasing us again.
