Jungkook's steps are rushed. He walks ahead of Taehyung, knowing very well he's following him.
But the younger chef knows, if he turns around and sees that face, tears will never stop.

Jungkook's steps are rushed. He walks ahead of Taehyung, knowing very well he's following him.
But the younger chef knows, if he turns around and sees that face, tears will never stop.
But he feels his cheeks getting wet, when he hears him calling,
"Jungkook-ah"
Taehyung halts him by firmly grasping his hand.
"You're walking too fast", the elder mentions, his voice softer than usual.
And Jungkook tries his best not to turn around and give in.

And Jungkook tries his best not to turn around and give in.
"I know we are not together anymore but professionally-"
It hit him again. They aren't together anymore. Jungkook can never have Taehyung.
Jungkook feels overwhelmed by how warm Taehyung's hand is, how close he stands behind him; the tears start to cascade down the next moment.

Jungkook feels overwhelmed by how warm Taehyung's hand is, how close he stands behind him; the tears start to cascade down the next moment.
Taehyung's eyes are dreaded when Jungkook turns around. Even though the younger is wearing a bucket hat, Taehyung can still sense he is crying.
"We could have worked it out", Jungkook whispers.
And Taehyung's grip on his hand gets tighter. Knowing very well, what was coming.
"We could have worked it out", Jungkook whispers.
And Taehyung's grip on his hand gets tighter. Knowing very well, what was coming.
Taehyung closes his eyes for a moment. Wasn't it like this back then too? Empty streets, just the two of them, holding hands?
When Jungkook asked for something Taehyung couldn't provide back then.
"You asked me to marry you, Jungkook"
It wasn't a fond memory. For both of them.

"You asked me to marry you, Jungkook"
It wasn't a fond memory. For both of them.
And the younger releases himself from Taehyung's grip. A little too forcefully. Because it's not all that happened.
"No hyung", Jungkook feels like choking, "I asked you to marry me because I dreamt for both of us",
Taehyung reaches out for him again, but Jungkook shifts back.
"No hyung", Jungkook feels like choking, "I asked you to marry me because I dreamt for both of us",
Taehyung reaches out for him again, but Jungkook shifts back.
"Unlike you hyung", Jungkook looks straight in Taehyung's eyes,
"Jungkookie", Taehyung whispers. This is not true. He wanted them to work out too.
"No hyung. Let me speak today.", The younger directly looks in Taehyung's eyes.
"Jungkookie", Taehyung whispers. This is not true. He wanted them to work out too.
"No hyung. Let me speak today.", The younger directly looks in Taehyung's eyes.
"I was fine when you rejected me. We just got out of uni, interning under Jin hyung. I was fine when you said we were too young for a marriage"
"But that wasn't all, was it hyung?"
"Kookie", an indescribable feeling of detachment overtook Taehyung, as if his soul left his body.
"But that wasn't all, was it hyung?"
"Kookie", an indescribable feeling of detachment overtook Taehyung, as if his soul left his body.
"What was it, hyung?", Jungkook feels anger blooming inside him as he moves closer towards Taehyung.
The elder takes a step backwards, already hitting the side walls of the streets, he never stopped looking at how painful Jungkook's eyes are.
"Should I remind you, hyungie?"

"Should I remind you, hyungie?"
Jungkook was caging Taehyung on the side walls of the street, grocery bags long forgotten.
"I might go to Mexico Kookie. What if we don't work out? I think we should break up", Jungkook mimics Taehyung's voice, mocking his words.
"I didn't say anything to your request Tae"
"I might go to Mexico Kookie. What if we don't work out? I think we should break up", Jungkook mimics Taehyung's voice, mocking his words.
"I didn't say anything to your request Tae"
A tear dropped down Taehyung's cheek, as he felt Jungkook's breath all over his face with every word his said.
"I didn't question your decision Tae. You asked and we broke up" Jungkook's hand finds Taehyung's waist, moving closer.
"The worst part was",Jungkook cruelly whispers+
"I didn't question your decision Tae. You asked and we broke up" Jungkook's hand finds Taehyung's waist, moving closer.

+"You never went to Mexico", he rubs circles around Taehyung's waist, looking at every tear that drops from the elder's eyes.
"You never went but decided to open a restaurant here, in Seoul"
"Right in front of my restaurant."
"You never went but decided to open a restaurant here, in Seoul"
"Right in front of my restaurant."
Jungkook's nose touches Taehyung's.
He lowly whispers,
"But guess what, just like you said"
"We are not together anymore"
Taehyung cribs on Jungkook's chest, clenching his tshirt. Like he still wants him more than anything.
He wants to say something, but the tears don't stop.

He wants to say something, but the tears don't stop.
"Look at me Tae", Jungkook commands, closing if any distance was left between them.
Taehyung forces his eyes to open without getting blurred. But the moment he looked up, there were Jungkook's soft plushy lips over his warm ones.
Taehyung shuts his eyes again, letting it flow.

Jungkook kissed him with a fierce passion, as if it were both the first and last time they would ever touch each other. Hold each other. His tongue plunged into the elder's mouth, igniting a fire that consumed them both and left them melted in each other's embrace.
Jungkook could taste the saltiness of the tears in his mouth, but Taehyung still tastes like something he could never have.
The younger breaks the kiss while Taehyung rushes for more, but he pushes him back.
"Next time, Don't ever chicken out from the things you want, Taehyung"

"Yo This ramen is crazy~~" Taehyung slurs, groping on the noodles. He can't tell what he did after locking himself inside his room and crying.
But he remembers craving for ramen. It's his comfort food, after all.
"This is exactly how I like my ramen~~"

But he remembers craving for ramen. It's his comfort food, after all.
"This is exactly how I like my ramen~~"
Taehyung chokes when he hears a familiar voice next to him.
"I know", Jungkook sighs as he pours a glass of water for Taehyung when he starts coughing because of the noodles.
He hands over the glass, taking his seat again. The restaurant is closed, it's just the two of them.

"A little saucy. Not a lot of broth. No chillies, but a good spicy"
Taehyung drinks water, staring at Jungkook when he iterates how exactly the elder likes his ramen.
Jungkook is sitting there casually, his arms looped in front of his chest. Taehyung gulps.

He realises how not only he craves comfort food but for his comfort place as well.
The elder chef stares outside. He can see his own small restaurant from here.
"I thought getting a place near you would make us close again", Taehyung's words lull a little but he whispers.

Jungkook looks at the rival, now a closed restaurant too.
"I was so happy when I asked you out during our freshman days and you said yes", Taehyung giggles on the fond memory. But Jungkook's face remains stoic.
"We got an apartment. Remember, i wanted a dog so bad?", Tae asks.

"We got an apartment. Remember, i wanted a dog so bad?", Tae asks.
Was it a Pomeranian? Jungkook thinks. Taehyung was eyeing that black-brown dog of the neighborhood for days.
"At that time I couldn't even take care of myself", Taehyung passed a comment.
Jungkook wants to say, he can't even take care of himself now as well.
"At that time I couldn't even take care of myself", Taehyung passed a comment.
Jungkook wants to say, he can't even take care of himself now as well.
Because really, he still forgets to have proper meals in a day.
"Anyways...", Taehyung starts blabbering again. It's his drinking habit. He can talk endlessly. No matter who is next to him. And if there's no one, he will text the first person in his mind.
And that is usually+

+the same person. Getting incorrigible texts at midnight.
"We even had our first jobs together. Jin hyung would scold us day and night... But it was always so fun working with you"
"Sneaking kisses here and there, laughing at the dad jokes. I miss those days..."

Jungkook closes his eyes for a moment.
"What are you implying Taehyung?"
Taehyung pouts, thinking hard.
"It was bound for us to get married", Taehyung says as a matter of fact.
"But I rejected you", he tilts his head and points at Jungkook, half drunk.

"And since then. I've been trying to tell you how much I love you but you turn deaf ears towards me", Taehyung raises his brows, trying to show his annoyance.
He might look adorable, gibbering but Jungkook doesn't give in.
"Finish your food, Tae. It's getting late"
He might look adorable, gibbering but Jungkook doesn't give in.
"Finish your food, Tae. It's getting late"
The elder chef focuses on the eating when Jungkook's thoughts meddle.
Even though, with time he understands getting married at that time was a reckless decision, he's certainly glad Taehyung works near his own work place.

No matter how much they fight, Jungkook understands Taehyung's intentions. Even though the elder, doesn't know how to communicate properly, Jungkook still gets him.
"Gimme more", Taehyung swirls, as he hands over a finished bowl to Jungkook.
"No. We are closed"

"No. We are closed"
"But I am sad~", Taehyung gives a valid reason for more ramen.
"Come back tomorrow", the chef says, cleaning the last table for the night.
Taehyung pouts getting denied,"I don't have money to pay you", he says, still not standing up.
Jungkook closes his eyes, realising+

Jungkook closes his eyes, realising+
+the elder just doesn't want to leave. He sighs, now completely focusing on Taehyung.
"It's okay Tae. It's on me. Now, please go back to your home?"
Taehyung's face turns a little pale. Biting his lower lip that wobbles. He feels uninvited. Not belonged.

Taehyung's face turns a little pale. Biting his lower lip that wobbles. He feels uninvited. Not belonged.
As much as Jungkook liked the idea of being domestic like this, he knows he would kiss him again and they will fight again.
But Jungkook knows it wasn't the three glasses of wine speaking, when Taehyung murmurs, lightly,
"If I ask you to marry me, will you, Jungkook-ah?"
But Jungkook knows it wasn't the three glasses of wine speaking, when Taehyung murmurs, lightly,
"If I ask you to marry me, will you, Jungkook-ah?"
Jungkook stands still. He turns around to face Taehyung who was already waiting for a response.
He sees the tears rolling down Taehyung's cheeks. Jungkook's heart clenches as he holds himself back and not hug his lover.
"Will you run away?", He questions instead.

"i have nowhere to go", Taehyung cries.
And Jungkook's hand instinctively reached to grasp Taehyung's waist. He rubs circles around the sides, knowing how much it comforts the elder.
"I don't want to lose you. Please just take me back", Taehyung's voice holds the pain of years.

Years they spent away from each other, just because one took longer to reach the answers while the other recklessly decided to skip the steps.
Years when Jungkook thought he showed his love by letting Taehyung go while the elder only wanted Jungkook to ask him to get back.

Years when Jungkook, a chef graduate, with a little experience, no job, no house, no restaurant decided to propose to Taehyung while the elder had no clue what he wanted to do in life.
Years after, they sit together, figuring out their mess, hands around each other but together.

"Look at me hyung"
Last time Jungkook asked this, he kissed Tae and pushed him away.
Taehyung looks up hesitantly,
"Will you promise, that we will discuss our problems together and not hide from them?", Jungkook hums.
And Taehyung nods. Embraces Jungkook tighter.

And years later, Jungkook and Taehyung realise that love and care were important but so is communication and trust.
"Can we start over?", This time Jungkook asks.
"Please", Taehyung says, nuzzling in Jungkook's neck.

They stay in each other's embrace for a while longer. Taehyung holds Jungkook tighter, not willing to let go.
And the younger doesn't push him back either.
"I wasn't a nice person to you", Taehyung slurs, slightly drunk now.

Jungkook tries to break the hug, to have a look at the elder but Taehyung whines, not letting him go.
The restaurant owner pulls him closer,
"Don't say it like that",
"We could have sorted this. But I took things in my own hands. Selfish Taetae ~"
"We were too young, hyung"

They were young. But so much in love.
Nothing else mattered, if they were together. Just them.
And even now so, nothing else matters but just them.
"For the last three years, you were right in front of me Tae. Everyday, I see you hinting at us to get back together"

Jungkook sighs when he feels Taehyung's breathing getting heavier
"And I would treat you like a nobody. Shut you down completely. I was selfish too, Tae"
"Kookie", Taehyung whispers in Jungkook's nape, "You weren't selfish. You needed time to heal", Taehyung's voice is light.

Jungkook tilts his head to look at Taehyung resting on his shoulder. His eyes are closed, cheeks blushing red being drunk, but in those years of pain and hate, Jungkook finally finds peace on Taehyung's face.

Because he too, is grateful that Taehyung chose himself rather than a marriage he wasn't ready for.
And what could ever keep them apart when their love for each other is stronger than any power in the universe.
Jungkook brushes Taehyung's hair on the back, knowing the elder is+

When Taehyung rejected him, he thought he wasn't someone capable of the elder, loved by him. Maybe he wasn't someone who knew how to love enough. Or maybe just maybe Taehyung never loved him.

Because when the elder came back, claiming he still loves him, Jungkook was scared he might run away again.
But there's Taehyung in his arms.
Still waiting for his kookie to love him.
And to have everything you ever wanted in the world, what could Jungkook ever be scared of.

"I love you Tae", Jungkook whispers only for himself. He knows Taehyung is asleep while standing, he often does that in the kitchen.
But Jungkook finally smiles, when Taehyung murmurs in his breathy voice, "Taetae too", leaving all his body weight on Jungkook.

Was it selfish not to be selfless?
Jungkook thinks.
Or maybe they were selfless enough to let each other go time and again, and too selfish to always come back in each other's arms.
After all, they were rivals out of love.
