Determined, Taehyung reached for his phone and dialed Hazel’s number. His heart raced as he waited for her to pick up. “Hazel, can we talk?” he said when she answered.
“Of course,” she replied, her voice filled with surprise and hope. “When and where?”
“Tonight, at the park where we used to play as kids?” he suggested, his heart pounding.
“Okay,” she said, her voice barely a whisper.
As the sun began to set, casting a warm glow over the park, Hazel arrived, her heart racing with anticipation. When Taehyung saw her, all the memories of their childhood flooded back, and he felt a mix of fear and excitement.
“Taehyung,” she said, stepping closer. “I’ve missed you so much.”
“I’ve missed you too,” he admitted, his voice trembling. “But I’ve been thinking a lot. About us… about everything.”
