IN YOUR EYES ( TAEKOOK ) SHORT STORY
IN YOUR EYES - 9 (´∩｡• ᵕ •｡∩`)
After that night by the ocean, something changed
Jungkook felt it in the way Taehyung treated him.
It wasn’t just words anymore. It was actions.
Taehyung started coming to the café every night—not just to listen, but to be there.
He never asked for anything in return.
And that terrified Jungkook.
Because no one had ever stayed just to stay.
Jungkook’s favorite coffee, placed on the piano without a word.
New music sheets, expensive paper, high-quality ink—things his uncle never let him have
TAEHYUNG
Do you like silk?
JUNGKOOK
(Frowned) Why would that matter?
The next day, he received a box of softest silk gloves—designed to protect a pianist’s hands..
JUNGKOOK
(Nearly threw them at Taehyung’s head)
JUNGKOOK
Stop buying me things (snapped)
TAEHYUNG
(Blinked, then smirked) Why? You don’t like them?
JUNGKOOK
(Bit his lip) That’s not the point
TAEHYUNG
(Tilted his head) Then what is?
Because the truth was, he didn’t know
All his life, he had only been given things as a transaction
Even his uncle’s care came with a price
Taehyung gave without expecting anything back
And Jungkook wasn’t sure how to handle that
Late one night, after the café had closed, Jungkook found himself saying something he never thought he would
JUNGKOOK
You make me feel like I’m worth something
The words hung in the air
TAEHYUNG
(Seated across from him, didn’t speak for a long time)
JUNGKOOK
(Swallowed) I don’t know how to believe that
TAEHYUNG
(Sighed) Then I’ll make sure you learn
And just like that—
Jungkook started to trust.
Even if it scared him.
ME
Don't forget to give like 😤
