A Way To Your Heart ✔

Chapter 26

The sun should've let its brightness penetrate through the white curtains if not for the dark clouds still blocking its rays. Guess the rain still miss the ground and its touches from the previous night.
So as for someone lying alone on the bed, missing the warmth.

Taehyung tried to return to his sleep since it was way too early than his usual wake up time, but couldn't anymore. Was he disappointed? Was this loneliness a proof of his disappointment? But why tho? When he clearly know the reason why he was left alone in this early morning and there's nothing to be worried about?
He finally got down from his bed, walking towards the window and poked his head out only for his mind to suddenly replay a glimpse of previous night's memory.

It didn't take long for the rain to finally escape through the dark clouds and meet the ground, dancing over it.
But when the raindrops fell on his face, something struck his mind. He shouldn't really care about someone who might probably be drenched under the rain in the middle of the road at the moment. But why did he let his feet quickened the pace of his steps on its own? From running downstairs, then towards the front door, grabbing the umbrella with his hand, till the soles of his room slippers touch the wet coal of the road.

His every steps was so determined to even listen the voice inside his mind asking him what he was doing and why he did that. But every single heartbeat that paced up seemed to encourage his feet to go further until his eyes stuck on the figure afar in front of him, running towards his direction, all drenched in rain, just as he expected.
His feet paused from taking the next step further when the figure finally stood in front of him, the water droplets rolled down from the tips of his umbrella like a curtain between him and the figure but those surprised eyes were still visible clearly.

"Taehyung? What are you doing here?"

He gasped at the voice. It seemed more good along with the sound of rain taping over his umbrella.
What was he doing there? He don't even know himself but he surely felt the sudden heat on his cheeks.

"It's raining."
What was he even saying?

"Yeah I know it's raining. So why are you here? Are you going somewhere?"

"I came because it's raining."
Taehyung saw the other tilting his head. Of course his answer was confusing, even he himself was confused.

"Did you come for me?"

Taehyung flinched when Jungkook took a step closer and bend towards his face. It's annoying that the other grasps too fast.
It's a fact that he came for him but he's too stubborn to admit it directly.
"Why did you go out without umbrella? I even gave up my sweet sleep because of you."

He yelled, frowning his eyebrows but all he get was only chuckles from Jungkook. To be honest, Jungkook never gets angry at him. Not that he want him to get angry but it sometimes annoys him when the other was too nice to him. He was supposed to be a stranger, he was supposed to be bothered by his whines and stubbornness.

"So you came for me right?"
Jungkook smirked.

That's it. That smirk annoys him the most. The face he made when he smirk was too handsome-- wait, what? Handsome?

"I came because if you're caught in rain and get sick, I might have to take care of you and that's troublesome."
What an excuse Taehyung !

"You said you came for me but still using the umbrella for your own? You said it's troublesome but you still let me drenched in the rain till now. What if I catch a cold? Do you want to take care of me that much?"

"Huh?"
That's when he realized they were still standing at the same spot and he was the only one under the umbrella while the other was still standing in the rain.
"Oh. Sorry."
Wow. Can he be more dumb?
He quickly let his umbrella cover Jungkook's head but it didn't take a even a blink of eyes to suddenly pull him closer by an arm. He could still see the smirk on the other's face when the umbrella was taken away from his grip.
