"i'm nervous."
jeongguk admitted.

the tiny boy tightened
the straps of his backpack
as taehyung knocked on the
door before them.

of course he was nervous.

why wouldn't he be?

he was mere seconds away
from meeting a woman that
he'd looked up to
and idolised for the majority of his
life. he was about to tell her how
much she meant to him, how much
she inspired him and encouraged
him without her even realising so.

she gave him hope.

jeongguk only
wanted to express his gratitude.

and this man beside him,
this... glorious man,

he'd taken him right to her.

how he'd managed to cease
such a massive place
in his heart was feverishly baffling
to the teen, had done so much and
come so far with him that
the younger was indebted to him.
how would jeongguk ever
repay him? not materialistically,
of course.
it seemed as though taehyung payed
little heed to that. more so... spiritually.

how was he going to show him
how much he meant?

anne lived in a small little town
house, a bungalow. it was regular,
nothing unique but still, ever so pretty.

"don't be, darling." taehyung spoke
with that husky morning voice of his,
he gave him a warm smile that mirrored
the blinding sun in the early morning light.
it's rays beamed upon him and from
the corner of his eye, jeongguk was
assured that they were kissing his
cheeks, light prevalent everywhere he
seemed to look.

jeongguk bit his lip and
found himself gazing
past taehyung's broad shoulders to
the cascading, gravity- defying
roses that crept up a crosshatched
ladder perched on the side of the
cracked plastered walls.
his gaze flickered over the
lush, crimson tainted petals that wrapped
themselves effortlessly around eachother,
cocooning themselves from the
outside world. the sunshine lit them up
as though they were on fire from
one side, illuminated by hope.

as the teen's eyes wandered
down to the stem where the beautiful
flower was pinched, twisted
and crafted with thorns that adorned
their weaved stems that trickled down
like a stream against the calloused
brick beneath, he found his breath
being knocked from him.
jeongguk could barely
see the thorns, he had to squint in
order to make them out.
they were ever so hidden
and concealed by the
pure deterring beauty of the
flowers... but they were there.
and when he saw them...
they only enhanced the image.

the thorns intertwined with this
perfect roses, it was so real.

a plum, jovial middle-aged woman
opened the front door, her red-lipped
smile was as warm and
blinding as the sun; laugh as
bright as could be.
