Chapter 25 - Chapter 25: Who Will She End Up With?

🌤️ The Quiet Beginning

It was a quiet Sunday afternoon.

Soft sunlight slipped through the curtains, filling the house with a warm glow.

For a moment—

Everything felt normal.

Almost… peaceful.

Yn walked into the kitchen, tying her hair up.

Yn:

"Hmm… what should I make today?"

Before she could decide—

Taehyung walked in behind her.

Taehyung:

"Yn."

She turned slightly.

Yn:

"Yes?"

Taehyung stepped closer, hands in his pockets.

Taehyung:

"Let me help you cook today."

Yn raised an eyebrow.

Yn:

"Are you sure?"

She gave him a teasing look.

Yn:

"Last time you 'helped'… we almost had a fire incident."

Taehyung smirked.

Taehyung:

"That was character development."

Yn laughed.

Yn:

"More like disaster development."

He leaned slightly closer, voice softening.

Taehyung:

"Let's enjoy it… together."

For a brief moment—

There was something deeper in his voice.

Something quieter.

Yn didn't notice.

Yn:

"Okay… but don't complain later."

🍳 Chaos in the Kitchen

Yn handed him vegetables.

Yn:

"Cut these properly."

Taehyung nodded seriously.

Taehyung:

"Yes, Chef."

A few seconds later—

Yn looked over.

And burst out laughing.

He was holding the knife very carefully…

Too carefully.

Yn:

"Yah! That's not cutting… that's thinking about cutting!"

Taehyung frowned.

Taehyung:

"I'm being precise."

Yn laughed again and gently took the knife from him.

Yn:

"Like this."

She showed him.

Her movements were soft.

Natural.

Taehyung watched her.

Quietly.

Not just watching—

Admiring.

Taehyung (thinking):

She's so… peaceful.

Then—

Without warning—

He stepped closer and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Yn froze.

Taehyung rested his face near her shoulder.

For a moment—

He just held her.

Like he was trying to memorize the feeling.

Taehyung (softly):

"I'll miss you…"

Yn blinked.

Yn:

"What?"

He immediately pulled back.

Taehyung:

"N-nothing. Continue."

Yn frowned slightly.

But didn't question it.

❄️ Flour Explosion & Laughter

Yn:

"Bring the flour."

Taehyung reached for it—

Slipped.

And the entire packet burst.

White powder filled the air.

Taehyung froze.

Covered.

Completely.

Yn turned around—

And laughed.

So hard she couldn't breathe.

Yn:

"Y-you look like a ghost!"

Taehyung glared.

Taehyung:

"You're laughing instead of helping?!"

Yn:

"I CAN'T—!"

Still laughing.

Taehyung:

"You're done."

He rushed toward her.

Yn:

"NO WAIT—!"

She tried to run—

But he caught her.

And hugged her tightly.

Flour everywhere.

On both of them.

Taehyung:

"Revenge."

Yn:

"You're so mean!"

But she was smiling.

Because she was happy.

Even if she didn't fully realize—

So was he.

🔥 Burnt Food & Soft Moments

A smell filled the room.

Both froze.

Yn:

"…The food."

They ran—

Too late.

Burnt.

Yn crossed her arms.

Yn:

"Cooking with you was a bad idea."

Taehyung:

"But you were laughing."

Yn:

"…Okay, fair."

Then—

They both smiled.

đź“– The Book Scene

Yn lay on the bed reading.

Suddenly—

Her book disappeared.

Taehyung was holding it.

Taehyung:

"Ha."

Yn:

"Give it back!"

Taehyung:

"Shorty, come take it."

Yn:

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SHORT?!"

She jumped—

Lost balance—

And fell onto him.

They landed on the bed.

Taehyung laughed.

Then—

Gently—

He gave her a quick cheek kiss.

Yn froze.

Yn:

"…You brat."

But she was smiling.

🌙 The Silent Goodbye in Disguise

That night—

They lay side by side.

Quiet.

Taehyung pulled her closer.

Yn didn't resist.

She rested against him.

Taehyung closed his eyes.

Taehyung (thinking):

If I hold her like this… maybe I can stay longer.

Taehyung (thinking):

Just a little longer…

❄️ The Real Pain He Hides

Outside—

Taehyung stood alone later.

Looking at the sky.

His smile faded.

Taehyung (thinking):

Tomorrow… I'll have to let her go.

He clenched his fists.

Taehyung:

"But tonight…"

Taehyung:

"I'll make it perfect."

🎢 The Final Day Together

The next morning—

Everything felt… different.

But they pretended it wasn't.

They went skating.

Yn almost slipped.

Taehyung caught her instantly.

Taehyung:

"Careful."

Yn laughed.

Yn:

"You're always catching me."

Taehyung:

"I'll always catch you."

At the amusement park—

Taehyung screamed on the ride.

Holding onto hEric tightly

her tightly.

Taehyung:

"YNNNN SAVE ME!"

Yn laughed so hard.

Yn:

"You're so dramatic!"

Ferris wheel.

Slow.

Peaceful.

Taehyung gently held her hand.

Then—

Leaned and kissed her cheek.

Soft.

Natural.

Taehyung:

"I hope we meet again."

Yn smiled.

But her eyes were a little sad.

đź’” The Goodbye That Broke Everything

Walking home—

The air felt heavier.

Taehyung stopped.

Yn turned.

Taehyung:

"Yn…"

He took a deep breath.

Taehyung:

"I love you."

Yn froze.

Taehyung:

"I loved you from the moment I saw you."

His voice shook.

Taehyung:

"But you were never mine to keep."

Tears formed.

Taehyung:

"I couldn't cage you…"

He handed her the papers.

Taehyung:

"Live happily."

Yn: why why are saying it like it a last goodbye

taehyung:(smiling sadly) you never know maybe it is

Yn; (sobbing) shut up don't talk shit

Taehyung:(whispering) bye....

Then—

He turned.

And walked away.

đź’” His Hidden Pain

Taehyung didn't look back.

But his steps slowed.

Taehyung (thinking):

If I turn around… I won't leave.

His eyes burned.

Taehyung (thinking):

Stay strong.

Behind him—

Yn fell to the ground.

Crying.

🌧️ The Final Twist

But then—

Suho appeared.

Suho:

"Yn? What happened?"

Yn cried harder.

Yn:

"I don't feel okay…"

Yn:

"Please… take me to Taehyung…"

Suho nodded.

Quietly.

And they walked.

🌙 Taehyung's Last Moment

Taehyung stood far away.

Watching.

Seeing Yn with Suho.

His chest tightened.

Taehyung (thinking):

This is right.

But his heart…

Was breaking.

Three months.

A love that was never meant to last…

But was meant to be remembered forever.
