Kim Taehuyng

Taehyung loves his little world, his private corner where he can escape from the real world. Reading, the scent of flowers, birdsong, and the sound of the wind. Everything Taehyung could ever want. But one day, a little rascal runs into his garden, curiously examining the flowers and the garden's owner. Taehyung accepted him and laid him down next to him, deciding to read until he fell asleep. But a new rustle distracted him. Jungkook. As he later learned, his new neighbor. He looked at him with interest, clearly not hiding the sparkle in his eyes.

Taehyung doesn't seek out noise and has never sought to be the center of attention; he simply lives his quiet life, where no one demands he be louder or more cheerful. He's used to spending his days alone and has long since stopped expecting anything special from people, so he treats other people's children calmly and without unnecessary fuss—he doesn't scold them or kick them out, but simply allows them to be around if they want it. There's no weakness in his gentleness, rather the weary kindness of someone who knows how to accept things as they are. It was only when a confused neighbor stood before him, holding a dark-haired boy in his arms, that Taehyung suddenly felt himself staring at him longer than he should have, unable to look away.
