"Fuck. Did he take it?" I muttered under my breath. I was rummaging in my drawer for several minutes looking for my favorite black beanie to no avail. I knew I placed it in this drawer, so it doesn't make sense for it to be missing unless someone took it. Unless Taeyong took it.
I'm the type of person who values each and everything I owned. I pride myself on being neat and tidy. That's why I seldom lose my things but somehow during this past week or so, I kept noticing that I'm losing stuff little by little and most of it were my favorite things. First, it was my toothbrush. Then, it was my favorite black t-shirt which I regularly use whenever I'm home. After that, I think I lost a few underwears and now I'm missing my favorite beanie.
Whenever Taeyong came by and stays with me, he will always go through my closet and wear my clothes even without my permission. As an understanding human being and a boyfriend, I let him be as long as he placed them back in its rightful place. But my silence and tolerance were being abused as time goes by and my 'pissed off' meter was reaching its peak.
With no luck finding it, I finally gave up and sat down on the floor in low spirits. Tears were brimming in my eyes but I held it in. I felt irritated and sad at the same time because I lost my favorite beanie. The beanie that my mom gave me for my birthday, a year before her passing. And now it's gone.
But I knew I don't have time to get emotional since I have a class in an hour. Plus, I can talk to Taeyong about this once I see him there. I can tolerate a lot of things but this was not one of them. So, I gathered myself off the floor and headed towards my bathroom to take a shower and get ready for my day ahead.
At the lecture hall, I immediately saw Sun-hee energetically waving at me and pointing to the seat beside her. Taking her cue, I walked past several rowdy students and slumped on the seat without greeting her.
"What's wrong with you?" she asked me as she looked at my face up close.
"I...nothing," I sighed. I was about to open up my issues with Taeyong to her but I caught my tongue and thought that it's not a good idea. Especially if Sun-hee decides to confront Taeyong on my behalf. I don't want to imagine what Taeyong might do to me afterward.
"You sure? You know, I hate to say this but you look drained lately. Is everything going fine with Taeyong?"
"As fine as it can be," I replied while giving her a small smile.
"You know you can tell me everything, right? I might be able to help you,"
"Help me?"
"I...I heard rumors about your boyfriend,"
