Kapitel 7: The Past

"Maybe I should start." I started saying. ", Taehyung and I were childhood friends, we have known each other since kindergarten. I used to call him Tae and he used to call me Jinnie. When we started elementary school, we met a girl named Taeri, she started mocking me and it became bullying at the end. She bullied me because Taehyung's father owns a big company and my family were poor. She thought that I didn't deserve to be friends with Taehyung. Taehyung would always protect me from her. At the start of the last year of high school I realized that I started to develop romantic feelings towards Taehyung. The feelings were growing stronger through the year. At the end of the year I decided to confess to Taehyung. Right after I confessed, I ran away in embarrassment. When I arrived at home, I heard mom and dad talk about Taehyung's father. They said that he had arrived home. Then I didn't hear anymore about him. Next day Taehyung didn't come to my house and walk with me to school like we always did. I thought he was sick, so I sent a message and asked him. He left me on read. Then when I arrived at school, I saw him drop off Taeri, from his car before parking it. He always said to me that he didn't like to drive, that's why we walked every day. I walked towards him, but he avoided me and when I started to shout Taehyung, he walked away ignoring me. Then Taeri walked towards me, she told me the most heartbreaking things I have ever heard. She said 'Taehyung is engaged to me. Don't try to be the third person in this relationship. I will be nice to you and let you decide where you and your family are moving. I obviously can't have you here with Taehyung. Please tell me at the end of today, I will help your family find jobs and financially help you get there. If you don't tell me before the school ends, I will just randomly choose a place and send you there, but I will not help you financially or help your parents find jobs.' That broke my heart. I almost couldn't breathe. At the same time, I never got an answer from Taehyung. I tried talk to Taehyung the whole school day, but he ignored me and acted like I weren't there. With each attempt the pain in my heart only grew bigger. Right before the school ended, I went to talk to Taeri, I told her that I wanted to move to Daegu, because I can't be that selfish to bring pain to my parents. They deserve to live happy lives. Then I walked out of the school, and right outside were Taehyung. I walked towards him, but he said 'You've probably heard this, I'm engaged, please refrain from talking to me. I don't want to be labelled as a cheater." That broke my heart completely. Without me noticing tears have been formed and fell down my cheeks, while watching Taehyung pull off with Taeri. When I arrived home, my parents cheerfully and excitedly told me that they have gotten better jobs in Daegu. Then we moved here, and I go to Daegu University."
