Description

For her, Taemin was an object of observation. He was someone she would watch without the intent to ever approach. So when she was suddenly into his line of sight and willingly bit down onto the bait he had dangling down on his hook, she was surprised. She was surprised that she became his girlfriend. But the story doesn’t end there. The most important part is what happened next. 

Foreword

Lee Taemin. If I could describe him in one word, it would be pragmatist. He sees the world for how it is. Roses are red. Violets are blue. Sugar is sweet, but technically human flesh is probably not. He doesn’t see a young couple in love but two young people who simply needed to feel wanted, not wanted to feel needed. He lives in the now. He looks to the future with a steady gaze, unwavering as he stares on; while wearing his monochrome glasses. And this is how he sees the world. It’s black and white. No grays. No in-betweens. You either accept it or you don’t. You either like him or you don’t. And me? I’m stuck in the gray area that he can’t acknowledge. He can’t see it: this rose colored love of mine.

Kim Jongin. He has his eyes set on the prize, his goal his dream for the future. Describing him in one word is hard, so I’ll use many. Lively. Funny. Bold. Presumptuous. And nosy. That last trait being what got me into this predicament I find myself in in the first place. This predicament involving Lee Taemin.

Park Chanyeol. The first time we met, he was waving his hand in the air over the large crowd, putting his longs legs to good use. He he was an enigma to me then. An enigma with bouncing auburn curls.  


A/N: The entire story will be written in first person and the main character will never be named. However the main character's name is known by the other characters in the story.

Chapter 32: "The taste of warm milk..." What a culmination to this journey :p The concept of the final chapter being told from Taemin's was genius, a heartfelt retrospective on what's happened in relation to where they are now. Love that Chanyeol and the MC remained together, as did Baekhyun and his girl. Sehun still fawns afterKyungsoo, which resulted in a chuckle on my part. Taemin seemed pleasantly humbled by his life experiences, and finally came to terms with seeing life through a spectrum of light and color as opposed to black and white. He resolved that not all of life's mysteries were solvable (at least by him), and was finally okay with that. What a relief to get a happy ending and definitive closure that even with everything that happened, everyone in this band of misfits went on to lead a fulfilling life with a positive and optimistic outlook on the future. Really quite satisfying, with a healthy dose of feels. Thanks for the journey, yo. This turned out to be a pretty thought-provoking story. :)

Chapter 31: "I might just be in love with you," is such an adorable line, and makes me happy considering this is pretty much where I wanted the story to go, after last chapter and ever since like chapter 8 when you knew what I wanted more than I did (for these characters). This was definitely a relationship in the works for years, and most likely better for it. He was patient and let her grow as she experienced other people, changed them and was changed by them in return. The Sehun x Kyungsoo came as a bit of a surprise to me, but hopefully that works out, and I'm sure we'll get to see a little of their future. Baekhyun and his new girlfriend seemed to have stayed happy, and that's great too. All around this is leading up to what must be a happy ending. Hoping it stays that way for the Epilogue; fingers crossed.
