Chapter 18

EUPHORIA ㅡ n. a feeling of great happiness and excitement, that Taehyung can only find beside his mother.

After hearing what Mrs. Byun announced, Taehyung and Jimin rushed towards the house's living room to check if what they heard was real. A sweet and excited smile automatically formed on Taehyung's lips, when his sight caught the most beautiful woman whom he missed.

"Auntie," Jimin called Taehyung's mother with the sweetest smile on his lips. Taehyung's mom treated him like her own son, as the two treat each other like real brothers. Mrs. Kim Taehee, Taehyung's mother, smiled at the boys.

Jimin spread his arms widely, asking for Mrs. Kim Taehee to give him a tight, welcoming hug. He was soon be captivated with Mrs. Kim's hug but Taehyung grabbed him by the back of his collar and pulled him away.

"Ya, I'm the son here. I should be the first one to hug my mother," Taehyung coldly told him and shoved him away.

Jimin glared at him and whispered, "So childish," but Taehyung just ignored him and just widely smiled at his mother instead. Taehyung's coldness was now replaced by a childish one. He cutely spread his arms wide, and ran to his mother excitedly.

"Eomma, bogoshipeoyo~" he childishly said and pouted when he finally got to face-to-face with his mother. Mrs. Kim Taehee chuckled at his eldest son's childishness and immediately wrapped him with a warming hug. Taehyung closed his eyes and buried his face on his mother's shoulder.

"I missed your aging scent, eomma," he jokingly said while swaying his mother's body inside his arms.

Mrs. Kim Taehee was startled by her son's sudden comment and she playfully whacked her son's back and let out some hearty chortles.

"Aish, you silly," she scolded him, playfully.

"Ya, Kim Taehyung. Let go now, it's my turn to hug auntie now," Jimin suddenly complained when he suddenly felt out of place. Mrs. Kim smiled at him and gestured him to join the hug as Taehyung seemed to be glued inside the warmth of his mother. The latter smiled widely and satisfyingly joined the hug, squeezing Taehyung in between him and his mother.

"I--I can't breathe," Taehyung groused childishly, just to shoo Jimin away from him and his mother.

"Let go if you can't breathe," Jimin teased and continued on sandwiching Taehyung between the hug. The two chuckled while Taehyung was whining childishly.

"Oh, who's that beautiful girl?" Mrs. Kim Taehee suddenly asked. Jimin followed Mrs. Kim Taehee's gazes and spotted the smiling Dubu behind them.

Jimin broke from the hug and squinted his eyes. He roamed his eyes around, as if he hadn't seen Dahyun behind him. "Eodie, auntie?" he inquired.

Dahyun heard what he said but she just let it pass. She doesn't want to leave a bad impression on the woman about her.

"Hey, Kim Taehyung. Who's she?" Mrs. Kim Taehee asked her son.

"Nugu?" Taehyung slowly lifted his head from his mother's shoulder and peeked behind them. He was shocked for a moment after seeing the teasing smile on Dahyun's lips, but he abruptly made a straight face. He slowly loosen from his mother's hug, pretending like he didn't feel embarrassed of his childishness. Mrs. Kim Taehee noticed Taehyung's low-key embarassment even though it wasn't really obvious on his expressionㅡmother's instinct, maybe.

Mrs. Kim Taehee smiled at Dahyun widely, and the latter reciprocated it with a wider one.

Dahyun put her hands together over her stomach and did a 90-degree bow at the woman. "Annyeonghaseyo, I'm Kim Dahyun. Nice meeting you, Ma'am," she greeted formally and politely with a sweet and endearing smile on her pale face.
