Cherry Blossoms After Winter (TaeKook) - EP⁶ - I'll keep your secret

Currently, the trio of best-friend, TaeGiMin were in the canteen of the school, Taehyung was sitting there on a chair when YoonMin, both came there with some packet of snacks, and Jimin was all ready to tease Taehyung about what happened earlier,

Park Jimin (A)

Oh Taehyung

Kim Taehyung (A)

*looks at him*

Park Jimin (A)

"I'll make the most of it" oh my gosh!!

Jimin shouted dramatically, imitating Taehyung from earlier, and Yoongi laughed along with him as they both took the seat there with Taehyung who just looked away, shaking his head slightly on the duo,

Park Jimin (A)

Why did you do that though? You never cared about anyone else before

Min Yoongi (O)

Even if he is not interested, he is a good person *says patting on Taehyung's arm*

Park Jimin (A)

Are you going to give the money back to Jungkook

Kim Taehyung (A)

You guys used it to buy all that *says as a matter fact, looking at him with a straight face*

Min Yoongi (O)

What? *yoonshook*

Min Yoongi (O)

What kind of assholé you are?

Kim Taehyung (A)

*looks away*

Min Yoongi (O)

I think he means it *says looking at Jimin*

Park Jimin (A)

*pouts*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*looks at himself in the mirror after splashing water on his face* I lost it...

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Emmo... I'm sorry 🥺 *mumbles with glossy eyes*

~ Later in the class ~

YoonMin were bickering about something whereas Taehyung was just looking at them with a slight smile on his face when Jungkook entered there, and it took attention of YoonMin as they stopped bickering, and the smile on their faces disappeared as they looked at Jungkook with a concerned face who was walking towards his seat with his head down,

Park Jimin (A)

Looks like he cried *says in a low tone, looking at Taehyung*

Kim Taehyung (A)

*doesn't respond anything*

Park Jimin (A)

His eyes are puffy

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*sits in his place*

Park Jimin (A)

Yah, look at him *whisper shouts, patting on Taehyung's hand*

Min Yoongi (O)

Give the money back to him, or he won't be able to go home

Yoongi said with a tint of concern, and Jimin nodded, but Taehyung didn't say anything, making them both sigh to themselves,

It was around 6 in the evening of the day when Taehyung came back home from school, and he was carrying a small sky-blue colored box,

Jungkook, and Jihyun both weren't home yet, and Taehyung just put the box there on table then walked away, upstairs to his room,

Later at the late evening when Jungkook came back home, he saw the same box there on the table,

Jungkook walked up to it, and placed his hand over it as a memory "at a bakery" flashed in his mind,

Young Jihyun (O)

Jungkook-ah, pick what you want to eat

Young Jihyun (O)

You too, Taehyung-ah *says caressing over his head*

Little Taehyung (A)

*nods*

Little Jungkook (A)

*looking at the price of a strawberry cake which is 28,000 won*

Little Jungkook (A)

That's a big number

Jungkook thought to himself as he turned around from there, walking further in the bakery when he came through "Cream bread" which was 1,000 won,

Jungkook reached out his small hand to the rack, and picked up one packet then shows it to Jihyun,

Young Jihyun (O)

Just this? *asks, taking the packet*

Little Jungkook (A)

Ne •yeah• ☺️

Young Jihyun (O)

*smiles* Our little Jungkookie loves his cream bread

Little Jungkook (A)

*nods cutely* Ne

Young Jihyun (O)

*pats his head softly* I'll take all these cream breads *says to the lady there, pointing at all the breads in the rack*

~ Present time ~

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Emmo...

He whispered out softly with a small smile on his lips as he picked up the box, and took it with himself,

~ After a while ~

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Should I ask Taehyung if he wants to share? *thinking, standing outside Taehyung's room with a tray in his hand which has a small cake on it*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

But...he doesn't like sweet stuff

Jungkook thought with a small pout forming over his lips as he looked down at the cake when the door opened suddenly, and there stood Taehyung with a bit surprised look on his face whereas Jungkook's eyes widened when he saw Taehyung,

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Ah... I...

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Would you like some of this *asks with his head down, putting the tray of cake right in front of his face*

Kim Taehyung (A)

*looks at it* Do you want to share it?

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*nods, looking at him innocently as puts the tray down*

Kim Taehyung (A)

Okay

Currently they both were inside Taehyung's room, sitting on the sofa, busy feeding on their cake-piece in silence when Jungkook noticed how Taehyung was eating very tiny tiny pieces, and also slowly,

Jeon Jungkook (A)

You don't like it? *asks in a small voice*

Kim Taehyung (A)

Ani, it's fine

Taehyung said looking at Jungkook, and he nodded as started to eat again when Taehyung put the plate down there on table,

Kim Taehyung (A)

Hang on a second

Jungkook halted, looking at Taehyung innocently with those big doe eyes of his when Taehyung took out the money envelope from his jogger's pocket, and puts it on the table there,

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*blinks, putting the plate away as picked up the envelope* H-how did you...

Kim Taehyung (A)

It's yours *says looking down at his hands*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Taehyung-ah 🥺

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Gomawoyo, I thought it was gone forever *says, looking at the envelope*

Kim Taehyung (A)

I know I'm late, but happy birthday...Jungkook *says his name like a whisper*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*looks at him with surprised eyes* (Jungkook?)

Jeon Jungkook (A)

(How long has it been since Taehyung said my name? 🥺)

Kim Taehyung (A)

*looks up at him*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*looks away a bit flustered*

Kim Taehyung (A)

Why aren't you eating?

Jeon Jungkook (A)

A-ah, I'm just savouring it *says avoiding eyes from him as picked up his plate, feeding on the cake again*

Kim Taehyung (A)

Should I go, and buy another one

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*looks at him, denying with a hand gesture* Ani, aniya •No, you don't•

Jungkook said with his doe eyes getting bigger to which Taehyung nodded lightly as he picked up his own plate, and they both continued to feed on their cake when Taehyung looked at Jungkook, calling out for him,

Kim Taehyung (A)

Jungkook!

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*looks at him* Hm?

Kim Taehyung (A)

How long are you going to put up with them

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Should I...fight back? *asks in tiny*

Kim Taehyung (A)

You don't need to fight them, but you've got to deal with it somehow

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*looks down* Anyway, I'll never see them again after graduation, until then... I can take it *says looking up at him with a small smile*
