Kim Taehyung

Ever since he was a child, Jungkook, whenever he saw Taehyung, the high school student who always waited for him after school and drove him home, and sometimes bought him his favorite ice cream, asked himself only one question: “Why does he need me?”

This question was always going around, but at least Jungkook always felt calm around him, feeling his support.

It seemed like five years had passed, and Taehyung should have forgotten about Jungkook by now, but no—he was standing in the parking lot again, smoking a cigarette. But this time, Jungkook decided to ask him specifically about that same eternal question.

"Taehyung, why do you need me? You graduated from school a long time ago, but you still keep coming for me."

Taehyung was slightly surprised by this question and at first stood in a stupor, thinking about the answer, but he didn’t have to wait long.

"I see you as a little brother, someone I just want to protect. If I wanted to, I would have forgotten about you long ago."

Jungkook was surprised, but his heart felt lighter from the answer that had been tormenting him forever. But Taehyung's voice was heard again:

"And you've got me hooked. Do you think I'm just going to sit here and wait for you to grow up?"
