(A.N: Play the video above for more feels. I assure you it's better with sounds on.)

The ride towards the restaurant was silent. Utterly silent. The way to describe this situation is that the awkward tension thickened and it was kinda hard to breathe.

I rolled down the window and smiled at the fresh air. I glanced at Taehyung from the front-view mirror, a small frown was plastered on his face.

His eyes crinkled and his eyebrows creased as he focused on the road. The wind gushed in and brushed his brown locks on his face. 

I turned my gaze back to the window and sighed, I wanted things to go back as they used to be. Maybe my feelings for him brought this situation  before us.

 I felt arrows are being targeted on my heart as I felt pain because of all these negativity. I've always bottled up the pain but this time, I'm too weak to hold it all in. After many years of hiding my feelings, now it got teared up and was more noticeable than before.

"Chanel-ssi, you ok?", he asked with a concern voice.

My lips started to tremble but I pursed my lips and just nodded. I don't trust my voice for it might give way the emotion that I'm trying to hide.

I got used on being by myself that I forgot the feeling of telling others how I truly feel. Today is the first time that I finally confessed to myself that I actually like like someone, the old me would just shrug it off and move on but somehow I never did.

Taehyung suddenly parked at the side of the road. My eyebrows creased as I looked at Taehyung as his jaw clenched. His eyes were closed and sighed before looking directly at my orbs.

He slowly leaned forward and I moved my head back in surprise, "What the hell are you doing?"

I gulped at the intensity of his eyes and we stayed in that position, unable to move. We were stuck in a little moment before Taehyung leaned more until he reached my ear.

"I'm just trying to understand you Jennie-ssi, I don't want to bury yourself with your own thoughts. I'm here, you're not alone.", he whispered as he tucked a hair strand behind my ear.

My heart started to pound inside my chest, my face flushed. I was unable to move nor speak any words, I was completely frozen.

He slowly moved back and was infront of my face again, he showed his pearly whites before he sat back down on his seat. I placed my hand on my heart to steady it and hid my face with my hair.

I closed my eyes tight and looked at the road ahead, "You're not ready, I understand. If you want to open up your feelings, I'm always here. Remember that Jennie-ssi."

He started igniting the engine and started to drive again.

I whipped my head towards him as questions filled inside my head. 

How did he know?

How did he know that I'm hiding my emotions?

How did---

"Your eyes tell...", Taehyung replied in a hushed tone.

I was once again lost for words, my eyes tell? 

"Eyes are the gateway of a person's true emotions. Everytime I looked in your eyes, you are either scared or hurt. You shouldn't be like that always Jennie-ssi. Life is full of pain and disappointments but it doesn't mean you'll let those emotions shallow you whole. You're stronger that you think you might be. Smarter than you know. Better than how you think of yourself. Love yourself Jennie-ssi, never let your pain kill you slowly. I'm here and I will be with you every step of the way."

My heart fluttered as I stared at him. I never knew he could be a deep person, I've always thought that his always playful and carefree but today, I got to see this side of him.

I held his hand that's resting on the side, Taehyung turned to me in shock but I just smiled at him, "Thank you again Taehyung-ah.", I softly whispered as I slowly faced forward.

I feel something burned at the side of my face and let out a small smile.

 "Anything for you Chanel-ssi..", I heard him whisper as he drove in an atmosphere where it feels like home.

The electricity and warmth of his hand made me feel giddy yet confident of myself. It gave my comfort as I felt Taehyung squeeze it in reassurance.

I glanced at the mirror and smiled at his reflection.

I'm glad I met you Taehyung...
