Destiny of Love

Kim Taehyung

So here we were, watching a Hollywood horror movie in a nearly empty cinema hall. Apart from us, there were only a couple and a few boys and girls scattered here and there. I had no interest in watching ghosts appearing out of nothing and hearing children crying and wailing. On the contrary, Kisa was so lost in watching those spooky characters appearing and disappearing on a big screen that she had forgotten me completely. The popcorn in her hand had still not reached her mouth and was waiting for the last fifteen minutes to be tested by her taste buds.

Her expressions were more entertaining than the movie. Sometimes her lips made an O expression. Sometimes her eyes hid behind her hand when the ghost attacked the protagonist and sometimes she would scream like a child.

Finally, after two long hours, the movie ended and we moved out. It was twilight when we finally made our way out of that dark dungeon. I wanted to watch some action movie or maybe a romantic movie, in case she wasn't into action movies but Horror movies would still be last on my list.

"It was so much fun, isn't it?" she asked with excitement in her voice.

"Yeah, very much. I loved seeing ghosts jumping here and there." I replied sarcastically.

"I know you didn't like the movie but still you can't blame ghosts for your interest in a different genre. What if they get upset and start haunting you?" She laughed.

"I'll send them to you; after all, you are such a big fan of them," I replied.

She responded with a cute giggle.

"Ok now leave this topic and tell me where should we head next?" She asked changing the topic.

"Is there some plan in your mind?" I asked to which she shook her head.

"Do you like to go for some shopping after which we can buy something for dinner?" I suggested.

I was clueless for today. I hadn't planned anything for today, it was a spontaneous idea and so I could give no better suggestions for the day.

She nodded and we started heading off to the supermarket. Stopping at one of the big shops, we headed inside and started stuffing food, and only food into the basket we collected at the entrance. I guess we both didn't have any interest in buying other stuff. She would add one thing; I would add the other two. She would object if I put anything in the basket that was expensive and not required.

"I know you are a billionaire but stop throwing your money here and there. This is so expensive, put it back and take the smaller one, or don't take it." She would say.

She looked for things while I aimlessly followed her until I found something I would really love to buy. I picked it up and instead of putting it in the basket, I hid it somewhere between other things kept there so that no one else could buy it until I come later. And then again I resumed following her like a child follows his mother.

While scrambling through the items in the store, my eyes caught sight of Jungkook's favorite banana milkshake and a mischievous idea appeared in my head. I put one bottle of the milkshake in the basket.

Kisa glared at me and I pouted in response. She shook her head and smiled. This was a cue that I have got permission for. Then I started searching for Jimin's favorite ice cream and luckily I found it at the end of the shop.

"Are you trying to get ill by having these milkshakes and ice cream?" she asked but I just didn't want to reveal my plan yet.

After having done with our shopping and buying ramen for today's dinner we headed off to our home.....practically her home. But not before I bought a beautiful pink clip with small diamonds on it. When I saw that clip, instantly her face popped up in my head and I so dearly want to see her in those clips. It wasn't an expensive gift but it had my feelings of gratitude in it.

When we moved out of the doors of the shop, I made an excuse that I left my phone there and told her to wait till I return. It was then I bought a small gift for her. I hid it in my jacket's pocket and decided to wait for the appropriate time to give it to her.

The warm homely fragrance hit our red cold noses as we entered the house. She dumped the shopping bags on the couch and went to change into her comfortable clothes. Meanwhile, I too changed back into my home clothes. I was being so restless for executing my plan that I didn't wait for anything and started digging for the ice cream and banana milk which were compressed among other items in the bag kept on the couch. After finding my weapons I did a video call to those mischievous friends of mine.

"I won't talk to you ...bye," Jungkook said from the other side without letting me even greet him.

"Then why did you pick up the phone in the first place..." I laughed.

"You were going for a walk and promised to return within three hours but your three hours have passed long ago."

"I think someone is missing me terribly." I teased him. He was two years younger than me but our bond was never of senior and junior but of best buddies.

"Nobody is missing you. We are having so much fun here... stay where you are for more days. We don't care." He looked so cute when he showed his anger.

"Since you don't want me to come then I am left with no other option than to finish your favorite milkshake right here, right now." I showed him the milkshake bottle and started drinking it.

Our boy was fuming with anger and I just wanted to enjoy this moment more.

" Are you breaking your promise, hyung?" Jimin came in front of the phone. I guess he was with Jungkook all this time.

"I was going to call you too. I am going to have your favorite ice cream today." I tried to tease him.

Anyone who would see us like this would certainly think us to be penniless boys fighting for food. But the money hadn't brainwashed us. I was the same Taehyung as the one seven years back and they were the same hyung. We always tried to find some mischief and happiness in these small things. The journey to reach here wasn't that easy but we together weaved these small moments and finally became a family.

So I took out the ice cream and started enjoying its taste while waiting for Jimin's whining but to my surprise, he was just staring from the screen and then gave his famous 'Dennis the Menace" grin

"I want to talk to her....."
