When Times Write Back (Taekook)
The first letter
Present day Taehyung is working late in a quiet University archive tHe air smells of dust and ink. he stacks old books on the desk signing
Taehyung
(muttering to himself)
Taehyung
why do I always get the night shift? These books are not going anywhere
he pulls out a leather-bound journal from 1912 as he flips it open a folder envelope slips out landing softly on his desk
Taehyung
(frowning) ... what's this?
Taehyung
examines the envelope its yellowed edges frayed. On the front in elegant handwriting
Taehyung
"""𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙬𝙝𝙤 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙨 𝙢𝙚""
""____"" this represents tae/ kook reading the letter
Taehyung
sounds like the start of a bad horror movie(soft laugh)
Taehyung
Stills curiosity wins. He open the envelope carefully inside a letter written in neat passionate strokes
Taehyung
𝘼𝙥𝙧𝙞𝙡 3𝙧𝙙, 1912
""I do not know if these words will ever find a soul or if they will vanish into dust like I one day but if you are reading this then perhaps I am not as alone as I thought""
Taehyung pauses, eyes widened. He glanced around the empty archive, suddenly aware of silence
he keeps reading, voice slower, softer now.
Taehyung
"" I am Jungkook 20 years old I write this letter because there is no one in my time I can confess to...the world would not understand, so I leave my heart here in the hope that someday - someday-someone will""
taehyung lowers the page, his heart thudding. for the first time in months, maybe years, he feels a strange connection to something or someone
Taehyung
(to himself)
Jungkook.... who are you?
