Chapter 3: Stranger

"Fuck my life."

A black haired man says as he takes out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and placed one in between his index and middle finger; he lit up the disease-filled stick with his lighter and inhaled that grey stench. The odor foretold of tar-infested lungs and his future death bed if he doesn't stop soon. His gummy smile was lost— everything was lost.

'It's too loud,' he thought as he sits on the couch silently.

A night club.

His decision of going to a night club was solely influenced by the loud music to distract his mind, but instead, the booming music created a bigger nuisance that he has to deal with.

'It's too fucking loud.'

There was something rotten in his eyes as he took each drag, as if he perversely lurked on that morbid end to punish those who caused him— his family pain. Each drag that he took was a man being pulled out from the shadows, killing them mercilessly from their crimes. He was a drowning victim ever since he was child; his mother who herself had suffered so much abuse from his father— she's gone, away from his father, resting in peace without worrying if she'll get a beating today.

The music played over the dance floor, array of blues, acid greens, hot pinks and gold of light swirled around the room.

"U-Umma..." he whispers as he let out a puff.

Then another.

And another.

He chokes from the smoke, his hands tightly clinging on the hem of his shirt to gain his balance. The male picks himself up and exited the toxic environment he surrounded himself in.

He stopped in front of a bridge.

His hands wrapped around the railing, thinking if he should do it or not; he battles with his mind as he lifted himself up from the ground and stared at the empty abyss river with no cars passing by in the bridge.

The air was cold.

But there was warmth soon coming to his life.

"Yeontan!" Taehyung screams again in relief as he sees his dog in a surprisingly attractive stranger holding him in her arms. "You worried the hell out of me!"

The dog jumps out from (Y/N)'s hands and ran to his original owner's foot.

"I'm so sorry if my dog bothered you— I was just walking to the convenience store, but he slipped from my hands and ran away," the boy stumbles through his words as he attempted to catch his breath from all of the cardio his little pupper made him go through. "I'm so lucky a pretty girl like you found him..."

(Y/N) cocks her eyebrows jokingly as the boy's face turns red.

"I— MEAN... I'm not hitting on you— that just slipped out of my mouth... I'm not saying that you're not pretty or anything, you're prett—" Yeontan barks out loud, stopping his owner from embarrassing himself more.

'Why am I stuck with this dumbass,' was written all over Yeontan's face as (Y/N) looked at him, chuckling.

"I-I'm Kim Tae Hyung by the way," Taehyung holds his hand for (Y/N) to shake. "What's your name?"

"(Y/N) (L/N)," she responded with her pearling white smile as she shook Taehyung's hand.

Taehyung's cheeks are suddenly kissed pink like spring roses in the blooming color— it was so cute against his sun-kissed skin. (Y/N) hangs back, allowing Taehyung take his time to compose himself- fighting back the smile that wants to break out.
