Unwanted Confession
The Golden QuillThis chapter looks at Tanaka and Namjoon ( content)
Namjoon stared at the beer and swallowed hard, he was not a heavy drinker and he was already on his third beer. He could feel his mind losing control and he hated it. His thoughts wandered to Tanaka and the look on his face when Namjoon told him of his plans for the evening.
“Yah!” Choong-hoon scolded, “You should drink more,”
“I don’t think I can…” Namjoon picked up the beer and set it down again, “I can’t drink a lot.”
