I Can't Take It
Just So You KnowIt's a bright sunny day and Taemin had a good long sleep. He opened his eyes.
"Aniyo. This is not happening..." Taemin got his eyes wide open. Is he really seeing this? Or is he only seeing things? He looked under his quilt to make sure.
"Anya...Aish...I'm so dead." Taemin sees himself with no clothes and he has no idea he slept with
"Ottoke..." Taemin sat right up and looked at
"Mianhae,
Before he leaves
"
"I do really hope it happens..."
"Who's this fro-" The moment she reads it. She didn't know what to do. She just found out that she made out with her best friend's boyfriend and didn't remember a thing. They were too drunk.
"Otokke...Otokke..."
"Let me know if you're okay..." She gets her phone from the drawer and just stares at it.
"Should I call him? Should I act like nothing happened? What if-"
Call from Taemin...
"Yosebyo?"
"
"Taemin...It's fine. Don't worry. I got it all covered. Arasso?"
"Ara...But, you're not mad at me are you?"
"Ani. It's not your fault. It was just an accident."
"What should we do?"
"Nothing, Taemin. We'll stay the same. If you get what I mean..."
"Nae..."
"I need to go...I'll...I'll make a call. Make sure he's okay."
"Nae...You should...He's worried..."
"Bye, Taemin."
"Bye...Oh,
"Nae?"
"Jeongmal Mianhae...I-"
"Taemin...As I said...It's all good. Our friendship is all that matters."
"Arasso. Bye."
After that call,
Tomorrow: Taemin's Birthday!
"Holyasdfghjkl!"
Call from Minho...
"Yeobo?"
"....."
"Yeobo...Jebal...Talk to me...Jeongmal Mianhae..."
"Kwenchana..."
"Yah...It's Taemin's birthday tomorrow isn't it?"
"Nae..."
"Let's give him a surprise birthday party."
"We should..."
"When do you want me to come by your house to talk it over?"
"....."
"Yeobo? Are you still there?"
"Ah- yeah yeah! Uh...Just come over tomorrow...I'm...Not feeling well today..."
"Arasso...Jeongmal Saranghae. Stay safe."
"I will. Bye."
The whole day,
The next day
"Jagiya...I think we should do it here in your house. Let's invite him over." Minho suggested.
"I think that's a great idea, yeobo! I should call him now..."
"Taemin? Nae...Do you want to come over by my house and have dinner?"
"Perfect. Arasso. See you..."
"What did he say?"
"He's definitely coming over. I think you should cook this time."
"But-"
"Come on! It's Taemin's birthday!"
"Arasso..."
"Yay! Let's buy the ingredients so we could start."
They bought all the ingredients needed and Taemin is just right in time for dinner.
DING DONG.
"I'll get it!"
"Happy Birthday!"
"Kamsa." As Taemin enters he smelled something really familiar.
"Mmmmmm. It smells really good in here!" Taemin walked all the way to the Kitchen and sees Minho wearing an apron who just happened to finish arranging the dinner table for three.
"Taemin! Happy birthday!" Minho approached him happily and whispered something in his ears.
"I'm really sorry about what happened. I shouldn't act that way." He gave him a wink after leaning to his left side.
"It's all good, hyung." Taemin is glad their all okay now.
"Yah! Guys! Let's eat! My stomach is grumbling!"
They are having such a great time. Just like the old times when they're just together and hanging out. Then Minho suddenly asks a question to his dongsaeng.
"Taemin...When are you ever gonna get a girlfriend?" Minho wanted to know.
"Huh?! Me...I- I don't know...Maybe I haven't found her yet..." Taemin takes a bite from his steak.
"You don't have to be a perfectionist in finding somebody..." Minho adviced.
"Let's just say...I found her...But...Someone already stole her heart already..." Taemin gave
"Aww...That is too sad..."
"You're very lucky, hyung..."
"I am. I'm very lucky. I've got the girl of my dreams." Minho stares sweetly at
"I'm lucky as well..."
"I had a great time..." Taemin exchanged goodbyes with
"I bet you did."
"Why is it that you seem not awkward...You know...With me?" Taemin suddenly blurted. He's not drunk this time.
"It's because you're my best friend and I don't want anything to change between us..."
"That's it!"
"What's it?!"
"I can't take it anymore!"
"Taemin, what's wrong-"
"I'm in love with my best friend's girlfriend!"
"What-"
"I'm in love with you!" Taemin broke into tears. He just can't hide it anymore. He has been hurting.
"Taemin...I- I didn't..."
"What happened last night...It didn't mean anything to you right?! It is just another accident isn't it?!!!"
"Taemin! If you only-"
"I just knew it,
"....."
"I'm not waiting anymore!!! I'm done!!! I may not know exactly what my future looks like...But I do know one thing!"
"Taemin..." She started to cry bitterly.
"You're not in it! Bye,
"Aniyoooooooo!!! Taemin!!! Jebaaaaaaaaaaal!!! Don't do this...." She tried reaching for his arm but he shoved it away. It was just too late.
"Taemin....."
