Taehyung was feeling excited to visit the small village that he grew up in, he hadn't been there in so long. He wants to trek through the stone paths and see if some small little vintage shops are still running in business, perhaps visit Mrs Alijah who owned a corner store that sold all sorts of candies (and beers). Taehyung used to go there with his friends, Mrs Alijah would always sneak the underage boys a few cans and then they would bike up onto the hills to sip on the alcohol as they watched the sun disappear past the horizon.
It was a tradition amongst him and his friends. He missed it, the simple times.
Taehyung bid a quick farewell to his parents after shrugging on a light coat and stepping out onto his front porch. Stuffing his hands into his front pockets, the young adult tramped down the steps and opened the front gate. He came out onto the sidewalk and turned to start his little walk into town, but he halted in his tracks when his eyes spotted something.
A cat was splayed out on top of the wall that encased the Jeon household, Taehyung cooed and stroked the white feline under its chin. He's more of a dog person, but that doesn't mean cats weren't cute.
The kitten purred, rubbing its face into Taehyung's warm palm. The male smiled, his hand trailing down to pet the fat belly, massaging it with his fingers.
Suddenly a powerful smell wafted through the air, causing Taehyung to scrunch his nose and lift up his gaze to see where it was coming from. Taehyung recognized the foul stench, it had often surrounded his friends back at university whenever they held their weekly dorm hang-outs.
It was weed.
Taehyung has never been a fan, it just smelled like someone urgently needed a shower.
His eyes scanned the front yard of the Jeon residence, orbs landing on a figure dressed from head to toe in black who was leaning against an old crumbling shed. Smoke was coming out from underneath his hood, which was covering the majority of his face, only the tip of his nose and a set of lips visible. The figure's fingers were curled around a joint, occasionally bringing it up to his mouth to inhale the toxic drug.
Taehyung remained unmoving, staring. The cat jumped from the ledge and sashayed away as it noticed that Taehyung had stopped giving his attention.
The male dressed in black suddenly lifted his head, eyes peeking out from under his long bags, staring straight into Taehyung's own chocolate orbs.
Taehyung's breath hitched.
The hooded figure let his burn-out joint fall to the floor, then crushed it using the heel of his boot, before turning and disappearing behind the shed and into the forest that was located right next to the Jeon residence.
Taehyung watched the mysterious male disappear, feeling an uncomfortable amount of twisting in his gut as he swallowed a thick lump which was lodged in his throat. He shuddered before tucking his hands back into his front pockets and making his way down the path, heading into town.
