#screams truth untold by BTS

[beautifulpersonpeach]

A question I’ve had on my mind for a long time BPP: do you remember how Jungkook said the J on his ring finger stands for Jungkook? What do you think of that? He could’ve chosen not to answer that question but he answered it and said it means Jungkook. I’m as strong a jikooker as anyone but it made me wonder about the JM theory. Sorry if this is not in line with your blog themes, it’s OK if you ignore this ask, I just love your perspective on things and wanted to know what you think. Thanks BPP.

Hi Anon,

I'm pretty sure my opinion about this is unpopular lol, both with jikookers who think Jungkook didn't mean it when he said so, and with non-shippers who can't stand any sort of shipping theorizing about his tattoos.

But, yes I think Jungkook is telling the truth when he says the J on his ring finger stands for his name. It’s possible he's telling a small fib to downplay his attachment to Jimin - it wouldn’t be the first time he’s told a verified white lie to protect jikook’s honour, as it were, so yeah it’s possible that he lied. But I'm choosing to believe he's saying the truth when he says the J stands for his name. That is, as far as we can tell, the truth.

Something that is also true is Jimin calling himself ARMY. Jimin has referred to himself as ARMY several times over the years, in situations that make no sense and that get eyebrow raises from all the members.... except Jungkook. Which leads me to think it's something of an inside joke between jikook - that much is clear, but I also think it's something more than that. What that is exactly, I don't know, but here's my gut feeling about it:

Jungkook has said the person he connects most with on stage, when they are performing in front of ARMY, is Jimin. For all the members, performing on stage is their reason to live, but this is most explicitly said by Jimin and Jungkook. Some of their most heightened emotional experiences, have been on stage and/or tied to their performances. Whether it's Jimin breaking down during Rosebowl and Jungkook screaming that he loves ARMY and loves him; or Jimin crying during his performance of The Truth Untold and Jungkook moving to support him; or jikook changing the lyrics at the end of their performance of the same song and turning to look at each other as the lights dim; or a teenage Jungkook stopping in the middle of a performance to stare at an injured Jimin during their Red Bullet tour - the other members moving around them wondering why they are locked in a stare-down in the middle of the show; or how Jungkook broke down in tears during the last LY concert and turned to Jimin for comfort who then used his sweater paws to wipe Jungkook's tears...

Jikook have been doing this for years. Consistently. There's a peculiar chemistry they show only when they are on stage together in front of ARMY that frankly doesn't feel at all like the fanservice I'm used to seeing from idols. It's as though they lose certain inhibitions when they are in this heightened emotional state when performing. They connect on a level I can't fully explain to be honest, but I think it's a connection they both recognize and perceive that the presence of ARMY is one way to facilitate it.

Basically, at the intersection of Jungkook and ARMY, lies Jimin. Without Jimin convincing him during pre-debut to stay with BTS when he wanted to quit to become a dancer, Jungkook wouldn't even be in BTS. That's just one example. I don't doubt Jungkook is telling the truth when he says the 'J' stands for his name, but I think the placement of the 'J' is also intentional, and that he intentionally placed it above the 'M' in ARMY knowing that it spells out Jimin's initials. Because I think for Jungkook, he feels that the person he is, the Jungkook that's matured into a global superstar honed by hundreds of performances in front of ARMY, won't exist without Jimin.

Like I keep saying, what exactly jikook's relationship is, I have no idea. But there's something about them that's peculiar. It's wholesome and beautiful and perplexing and simple.

But I still want you | jegulus microfic | word count: 216

this is entirely based on the song “The Truth Untold” by BTS. I highly recommend listening to it (or reading the lyrics)

Regulus always knew that forever was not for them.

James is the closest thing to reality that he has.

He’s warm, loving, good, and somehow loves Regulus.

But if Regulus were to remove his bloodied mask and show him all the thorns that lie beneath it, could he still love him?

Even if he can’t change, can't hide, regardless of how many times James smiles at him or reaches out to him.

From the beginning, he knew that James' light would only reach him to a certain point.

That one day James would see him and have no choice but to leave.

It makes him want to cry, to scream, to lie.

He can’t show James what he is, can’t give himself whole only to be thrown out. Regulus has to keep his mask on if only to keep him for a couple more seconds.

But his fate cannot be changed.

At one point James will see all the ugly scars that lie inside of him. They twist around his veins like roses. Any chance of being saved or accepted only results in pricking his hand.

He feels like his walls are caving into him, making the perfect life he had curated for himself come tumbling down.

Even in the end, all he wants is James.

a bts playlist

a bts playlist is the most ethereal and diverse thing on this planet. dope, honestly, deserves to be the first song on every bts playlist ever (cause why not?). i can go from singing about my hormones to sobbing over spring day (that masterpiece), from screaming ‘i love myself’ during idol to willing to change myself a hundred times (for the better of course) while jamming to filter.  magic shop is there to comfort me after i’m done crying to the truth untold.  stigma, epiphany and butterfly unravel my deepest thoughts right after i’m done dancing around my room to dynamite and go go. 

basically, in the span of an hour, a bts playlist can make me feel things my high school life and boyfriend can’t.

The Truth Untold -- Chapter 24: I Buried My Voice For You

Pairing: Taehyung x Jungkook, Yoongi x Jimin

Word Count: Fic in progress, 220k so far. 3k-5k per chapter

Chapter Summary:

This is the end of BTS then.

What is wrong with RM? Why would he allow this to happen?

I wonder what the guys think of their fearless leader being a pervert.

BigHit needs to cut their contract, there must be a morality clause.

Absolutely disgusting.

Warnings: Eventual Smut, BDSM, 18+, MxM

Taehyung is backstage talking to Bon-Hwa, trying to get to know the man a bit better. Namjoon felt it was a good idea for him to be spotted at a concert watching them and Taehyung can’t help but thank him over and over for what he’s doing. He’s got such a kind smile that he has immediately put everyone at ease.

“Bonhwa-ssi, I don’t know how to thank you enough for everything you’re doing for us. I know you’re sticking your neck out for strangers.”

“Namjoon-ah loves you all so much. He talks about you enough that it feels like I know you all already. I am more than happy to fight for what’s right, consequences be damned. I’m excited to watch you all perform, I’ve got the best seat in the house!”

“I know the point of you being here is to photograph you looking a bit mesmerized watching Namjoon-hyung, but do you have any plans for what comes next?”

“We do actually, this one was my idea and I’m a bit proud of its brilliance. I’m on the board of a charity here in Seoul. We’re having an auction in a few days, attendees can bid on our board members. Winners get a night out with whoever they’ve bid on. There are conduct rules of course, but it’s a fun way to raise money. Namjoon is going to bid on me until he wins. It’s going to look like he’s a jealous lover who refuses to let anyone have me. Once this all comes out, records will show he’s donated to the charity for years and was just showing his support.”

“Wow, that’s a great idea. It helps that you’ve known each other since childhood, you have so much to back up the friendship to the media. Is that going to be the big finale?”

“Yes, Dae-Hyun will finish presenting all of his evidence after the event and we’ll see if our relationship shows up in the media. I can’t wait to humiliate some bigots.”

“Please let us repay you in some way. We don’t just owe you one, we owe you several.”

“Be happy Taehyung-ssi. That’s all I want from you.”

Taehyung launches forward and hugs the other man, unable to contain himself. He will find a way to pay this debt. He makes a mental note to ask Namjoon-hyung what he can do. Maybe he can do something to help Bon-Hwa’s family financially. He pulls back from the hug when he hears the final call to the stage and flashes a big smile before running off.

This is the first time they’re performing Fake Love live and he’s going to do his best not to stare at Jungkook the entire time. He’s preparing himself for the insane crowd reaction when he lifts his shirt during the chorus. What he really wants is the moment they’re pressed together to last the entire performance.

Taehyung walks out onto the stage and feels the head rush of passion that hits every time. The bright lights, the screams of the crowd, the pounding of the music through his bones. He loses himself completely and finds himself easily focusing on the crowd instead of Jungkook. The song plays on and out of the corner of his eye he watches his hand go to the hem of his shirt and suddenly the audience erupts. He can’t keep the grin off his face, that’s his man.

They run off stage, elated. Everyone is jumping all over each other and cheering. He watches Namjoon run to Bon-Hwa and throw his arms around his neck, clutching tight. He knows they’re just barely in view from the side of the stage on purpose and he hopes there are cameras snapping. He looks over to Jimin and Yoongi, Jimin is jumping up and down and screeching happily at Yoongi. The elder is smiling back, but it’s not genuine. Does Jimin even notice?

********

Everyone is out celebrating a successful performance, shutting down a restaurant to accommodate the members and the entire staff. Bon-Hwa and Dae-Hyun are in a corner conspiring, Namjoon and Jin are toasting giant glasses of beer, Jungkook and Taehyung are talking quietly, Hobi is showing a staffer one of the moves from the routine. Everyone is full of joy. Jimin is scanning the room and finally lands on Yoongi’s face right next to him.

He’s staring down into his whiskey glass, a numb look on his face. His eyes are empty, seeing something that isn’t there. He’s been off for weeks, but no matter what Jimin tries, he can’t get through to him. This has been such a big accomplishment for them, this album is about to explode and the debut of Fake Love went so well. Why can’t Yoongi seem to enjoy it? If he really thinks about it, things have been wrong ever since Namjoon set his plan into motion. Is that what’s bothering him?

Jimin reaches out and fluffs a hand through Yoongi’s hair, but he doesn’t even flinch. No part of him is present and there is a pit in Jimin’s stomach. He has no idea what to do, how to help. He feels completely useless, like he’s letting down someone he loves. Maybe Taehyung can shed some light on the situation, he deals with depression and anxiety regularly.

He looks over to where his soulmate is snuggled up talking to Jungkook and changes his mind, he’s finally calmer and settled. The last thing he needs is someone trying to lean on him. All Jimin can do is keep trying to get through. He knows Yoongi isn’t sleeping. The few nights he does come back to the dorm and lets Jimin sleep with him, he stays awake staring at the ceiling. Once he thinks Jimin has fallen asleep, soft sobs fall from his lips so quietly that they can barely be heard.

He’s tried everything to get through to Yoongi. Romantic gestures, surprises, private dinners, easy nights at home with no pressure, allowing him his space. Nothing works. He won’t open up no matter what Jimin tries. He seems so far away and it’s starting to bleed over into Jimin a bit. He can feel himself withdrawing into himself little by little with time.

What if they can’t find their way back to each other?

********

Several nights pass and Namjoon finds himself dressed as discreetly as possible walking into the banquet hall. He’s wearing an all-black suit with sunglasses, hoping to blend in. His bodyguards are dressed similarly, but spread throughout the room as if they’re other guests. A key part of this step is to make it look like he doesn’t want to be recognized as bidding on Bon-Hwa at the auction.

As the night goes on, no one has recognized him yet and he’s put in some small bids on other participants to make it seem as if he’s just here for the charity. He looks at his program and can see that Bon-Hwa is coming up next. Dae-Hyun has a friend in the audience who is tasked with driving up Namjoon’s bid just in case it doesn’t seem as if winning isn’t important to him.

He sees his friend step out on stage and they immediately lock eyes, Bon-Hwa winking as he walks down the small runway. He’s dressed in a navy suit with a rose in the pocket and several women start to bid on him fervently. Namjoon raises his paddle quietly and the auctioneer nods at him, accepting his bid. Several other numbers are raised into the air and before he realizes it, Bon-Hwa has become the most popular participant of the night.

I’m so proud of him, but shit, I need to make sure I win this.

Namjoon continues to raise his paddle, wincing a bit at how high the price is when he’s finally declared the winner. He nods to the crowd as they applaud his victory and he puts his number face down on the table, standing up to leave. His job here is done. He takes care of settling his bid and leaves the banquet hall, hearing the clicks of a camera as he walks to the car waiting for him.

********

A week goes by and the media is quiet. Jungkook worries that the plan hasn’t worked out the way they thought, what if no one buys that Namjoon and Bon-Hwa are a couple? Everything they’ve done could be explained away and it’s only been a handful of incidents. He’s frantically refreshing Dispatch’s home page, like he has been all week. Watching it is only stressing him out, so he goes into the dorm’s kitchen to make a cup of tea. He places his phone on the counter and starts boiling water when he hears a yelp from down the hall.

Hobi comes running into the room asking where everyone else is. He’s waving his phone in the air and babbling incoherently. Jungkook is worried that something is wrong and shushes him, grabbing his phone from his hand to look at what’s going on.

RM of BTS revealed to be gay. Click here to learn about his lover and their affair.

“Oh my god! Hobi-hyung! It worked!”

“Read the article, Kookie!”

Jungkook clicks the link and scans the extensive article, seeing the photos of Namjoon and Bon-Hwa on their getaway vacation. There are snaps of them looking intimate and touchy, pictures of them having dinners here in Seoul, a sweet photo of them wrapped in each other’s arms at the Fake Love debut, one of Namjoon with his paddle in the air at Bon-Hwa’s auction.

The reporter doesn’t name their source, but lays out the evidence clearly. The receipt from their hotel, the desperation in Namjoon’s auction bidding, countless instances of them holding hands or tucking hair behind each other’s ears, trips to visit their families together. It’s all so thorough that Jungkook would believe it completely if he didn’t know any better. They almost did too good of a job selling it.

He shoves Hobi’s phone back at him and grabs his hand, pulling him down the hall to frantically knock on doors. The only ones home turn out to be Taehyung and Namjoon and the pair bursts into their room shrieking at the same time. All they manage to do is scare the other two with their fervor.

“Hoseok-ah, Jungkookie, deep breaths. What’s going on?”

“Namjoon-hyung, the article came out on Dispatch! You’ve been outed!”

He expects Namjoon to look at least a little scared, but instead his face breaks out into a huge grin as he grabs his phone and pulls up the website. He whoops and cheers at each new thing he sees, dancing around the room like a fool. Jungkook is shocked at the reaction.

“Hyung, are you okay?”

“Don’t you see. Kookie? Everything is going perfectly. We’ve got them! We did it! I have some calls to make.”

He watches Namjoon run from the room, phone clutched in his hand and a spring in his step. He walks over to where Taehyung and Hobi are bent over their phones together, chattering at different parts of the article and debunking them. He smiles warmly and sits on the floor in front of them, watching the look on his boyfriend’s face. Taehyung is the least anxious he’s seen him in a long time and he would do anything to keep things this way.

********

Yoongi is sitting on the roof breathing in the crisp spring air. He’s missed sitting up here, the cold weather consistently turning him away. There’s also a bit of reassurance in the idea that if he’s here, Jimin or Taehyung could find him if they really needed to. It’s the illusion of being alone with a safety net. His head is spinning, he wonders if anyone else has seen the Dispatch article yet. He imagines they have, at the very least Bang must have called someone to alert them.

He read through the article in his studio, but started to have trouble pulling air into his chest and came up to the roof to get some fresh air. His panic attacks are more or less controlled now, but it doesn’t mean they don’t try to take him down. They always will. The article was exactly what they all expected it to be, but Yoongi had made the mistake of looking at the comments.

This is the end of BTS then.

What is wrong with RM? Why would he allow this to happen?

I wonder what the guys think of their fearless leader being a pervert.

BigHit needs to cut their contract, there must be a morality clause.

Absolutely disgusting.

There were supportive comments as well, but those didn’t reach Yoongi the same way. The people full of venom and disdain voiced some of the worries that he’s had ever since he realized he had feelings for Jimin. He was sure that he was sick. He’s ashamed now to see his similarities to these cruel people.

If this is how people feel, he and Jimin can never come out. He’s dreamed of showing Jimin off to the world, making it clear that his love belongs to Yoongi. He thinks most of ARMY would accept them, he sees all of their shipping videos, but there would be some who would abandon them. He’s sure of it. He knows Jungkook and Taehyung dream of a day when they can be open and free as well, but all this has shown him is that that’s impossible.

He’ll have to marry a woman someday to keep up appearances, won’t he? No, no, there’s no way he’s ever promising himself to anyone but Jimin. He may never be able to show his love to the public, but he can bear the brunt of bucking societal norms to the point of not having a family life. It’s uncommon, but much more acceptable. He can’t stomach people throwing vitriol at him just because he dared to fall in love.

He keeps thinking of Namjoon, is he reading these comments? Are they cutting him this deeply? Is he regretting his choices now? Yoongi may have reassured Taehyung about all of this, but he doesn’t know if he believes his own words. Taehyung has been coming to him regularly and they’ve been unpacking his anxiety. It keeps Yoongi busy and distracted enough that his own darkness gets pushed back a bit. All he wants is to feel better, to grasp joy again.

Every time this happens, there’s no schedule. It ends when it ends. What if it takes months? He can’t do that to Jimin, he can see the sadness when their eyes meet. He knows the other man can feel him pull away. He’s watching Jimin try to lean into him, try to reattach and he just can’t feel it. It’s as if someone injected his soul with an anesthetic, he is numb from the inside out.

Maybe he needs to give Jimin some space, release him from the cage of dealing with Yoongi’s issues. Let him off the hook, if you will. No one should have to put up with this.

here's the thing I've been saying for YEARS that even though they aren't classically trained or even spectacularly talented vocalists, the BTS vocal line all sound really nice when they're singing in a comfortable chest-throat range and not having to scream from their head voice the whole goddamn time. I just think from the time they debuted until like 2016-17 when they overtook exo in terms of global popularity/prominence bighit was SO obsessed with trying to prove they could do everything exo was doing including hitting the same notes exo was hitting except they COULDN'T bc I'm sorry no one in BTS is belting it like baekhyun, chen, d.o., etc. and you hear the difference on songs like The Truth Untold where they all sound LOVELY and they can actually blend bc it's in a lower range than literally anything else in their discography vs that godawful bridge bit in ON where apparently the best take they got is Jungkook obviously straining and STILL noticeably under pitch, and idk it shouldn't take Steve aoki and Chris Martin to come in and write songs they can actually sing

The one thing that has any sway for me in my belief that Jimin and JK are more than friends is the sheer impact of what could happen to them if people found out... they are young and have otherworldly talent that could fuel a very very long career for both of them outside of BTS too. They are both ambitious and also hugely passionate about their music and performance. When I see the other members saying things like “it’s like you’re a couple”, yes, it’s cute and I’d LOVE to think it’s their tacit way if ever so gently pushing the envelope and nudging people while joking but I come back to - why draw attention to it? The untold damage it could do to BTS, to the boys themselves, to the company that they have shares in etc etc etc. The argument that they’re Korea’s pride and hugely beloved so surely that would be a plus is only good as long as they’re toeing the line, I think. While BTS seem different to many KPOP standards and have pushed the envelope a lot, I can’t ignore the fact that the revelation that JK and JM are not only LGBT+ (which would be huge in itself) but a couple... either they’re hoping they can hide in plain sight and remain together outside of “work” and are simple relying on people just NOT getting it after all they’ve shown or they truly are nothing more than friends. But then I could back to the fact that JM will not hold his mouth (and I adore him for it). It’s either staggering bravery to attempt to be authentic in the face of a potential tidal wave of nightmare OR its simply done in jest knowing they’re close and people like when they tease. My brain can’t accept the latter but I often come back to thinking - the risk is enormous. Is this a kind of unique situation, a kind of miraculous situation whereby they are truly able to pave the way or are we ignoring the obvious. My gut tells me that it’s the first but I struggle to believe it, as frankly the connotations are too beautiful to consider - their relationship being so meaningful and so strong to take that risk, them both being so brave to even think of it, the members being so understanding and supportive so as to hide and protect and love, the company being accepting and willing to allow them to show what they’ve shown... my cynical brain who doesn’t believe in love all that much screams at me that this stuff doesn’t happen. It seems almost too fraught and magical to be real. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Clearly you are struggling with wrapping your head around this, and it’s only natural.  

To me their love story is one out of a fairytale.  An epic love story.  A once in a lifetime love story.

If not for the LGBTQ+ angle, you wouldn’t be struggling, though, would you?  Them possibly being gay, with all that it may entail, the possible shunning, the potential damage to their careers, the potential danger to their safety, would it be worth it?  Is that what you are struggling with?

Well, I have to tell you, love is love.  We, usually, don’t choose who we fall in love with.  We can, maybe, choose if we follow through with it or not, but that takes a hell of a lot of self control and restraint.  

I can assure you that both JM and JK went though hell before they came to terms with who they are, who they love and if they allow themselves to act on it.  But once they came to terms with themselves, and discovered the feeling were reciprocal, I believe they decided they will deal with what comes, as it comes.  

Obviously, especially at the start, there is fear of discovery.  But then, as the connection, the relationship grows, strengthens, there is build of confidence.  In themselves and in each other.

There is also a want, a need, to cry out to the world that they are in love, that they are together.  And we see this shift from 2017 on.  They start to push the envelope time and time again, even more so after their Tokyo trip.  And the thing is that the expected backlash doesn’t really come.  So they push even more, and still nothing.  I mean, Jikookers are out there.  Things are being said.  But there is no real backlash.  

What they find, as Jikookers do, is that people would rather find a stupid/crazy explanation, rather than see the truth that is right in front of them.  

That’s what happened after GCFT, GCFS, RB, JK’s tattoos, JM telling us the thing he enjoys is to wake up and see JK’s face, JM telling us he was with JK at 4 am (especially how it, in a way, contradicted Tae’s story during the Vlive)...

So, yes, they slowly but surely discovered that short of ‘coming out’ publicly, their actions, as telling as they may be, are falling on ‘deaf ears’, explained as ‘skinship’, ‘fanservice’, etc.  That’s the definition of hiding in plain sight.  

The other members piping up once in a while with “are you two a couple” is part of that ‘hiding in plain sight’ game... 

For me, the members silent reactions to the two’s interactions, are way more telling.  RM, Hobi, Jin, Tae’s faces sometimes are hilarious.  The way the other members move to separate the two, for example: Hobi having to peal JM off JK during episode 89 or 90 of Run BTS,  or RM having to walk through the two to separate them during a concert, nudging JM to follow him.  All those are way more telling that there is really something going on, something they may want or need to hide.

As I mentioned, JM and JK’s love is something out of a fairytale or a romantic movie, something like ‘Love Story’, a once in a lifetime love.  The connection is so strong, so deep.  

Yes, both boys are super brave.  They overcame and will still have to overcome many hurdles.  There is so much hate out there, I do worry about them.  But I also do believe that if there is someone that can overcome it together, it’s those two.  And whatever the future may bring, I think they will withstand it.

hidden // masked // exposed

Lim Jaebeom never let anything, or anyone, for that matter, disrupt his beauty sleep. Always eight hours, no more and no less. If he didn’t get a full eight hours, his entire system would get thrown out of whack and a sour mood would linger over his head for the remainder of the week.

He already had a late night, what with the newest modification in the garden keeping him up late and all. It was a wooden trellis that he made out of a fallen cedar tree, carved and sanded to near perfection with his own bare hands. The soreness of his muscles made it even more difficult to fall into a deep, peaceful slumber. Plus, the frigid air at the top of the tower where he slept did little to soothe his aching joints. If anything, the chilly surroundings made his body feel worn beyond his years. As he got older, he learnt that sleep was a precious, fleeting commodity.

Which was why he did not appreciate the ear-shattering scream that pierced his eardrums in the wee hours of what was to be a quiet Sunday morning. It sounded as though someone had snuck past the four sturdy deadlocks to his tower, climbed up the flight of spiral stairs and barged into his bedroom to scream in his face.

With a frustrated grumble, Jaebeom harshly threw the covers off and bounced out of bed, feet stomping on the creaking floorboards as he went to inspect the source of the ruckus from his window, thirty feet above ground.

He was met with an appalling sight. From the vantage point he watched in utter horror as his tirelessly crafted trellis shattered into a million pieces, lying scattered amongst the mess that was once his beloved vegetable garden. His precious baby cabbages, carrots and tomatoes were either covered in dirt or squashed by a human figure who planted head-first into the ground. It was a girl.

Jaebeom watched with an increasingly curious gaze as she peeled her face off the ground and pushed herself onto her feet, her back towards him. She was petite, not any taller than his shoulder, he guessed. Even from afar, he could see how her limbs were as thin as straws, her legs barely holding up her tiny frame. She bent forwards, brushed clumps of soil mixed with fresh fertiliser and bits of withered leaves off her beige linen dress before standing upright and turning around.

Jaebeom swore his heart nearly leapt out of his chest.

In a flash, the man dropped to the floor. Much like in a battlefield when the general yelled ‘fire in the hole!’ and ordered his men to take cover, Jaebeom covered his head with his hands and said a silent prayer. He wouldn’t, no, couldn’t, let the girl see him. Not like this. Especially not like this. He hadn’t washed, hadn’t brushed his wavy, shoulder-length hair, and he certainly hadn’t worn his mask to hide the horrendous scar on his left cheek from her glistening, hazel eyes.

“Hello?” Came a voice – the softest, sweetest voice Jaebeom had ever heard.

“Go away, go away, please just go away-” He muttered to himself, wishing and willing the girl to get away from here, away from him. Nothing good would fall upon her shoulders if she were to interact with him in any way, shape or form.

“I… I’m sorry, kind sir!” A pause. Jaebeom imagined her pondering over her next words. He wondered whether she would chew her lips in nervousness. “I’ll pay you back! Here… I’ll…” Another pause. He didn’t want her money, he just wanted her to leave him in peace so that he could go about his usual Sunday routine and clean up the mess she made. “There’s five shillings in the sack of seeds by the shovel. Please accept my most sincere apologies!”

For the next two minutes, the man waited with clammy palms and a sweaty forehead. Only when he thought the coast was clear did he dare to peek out the window once more.

A twang of emotion (Was it disappointment? Emptiness? Or sadness?) shot through his chest. Inexplicably, his eyes followed the girl’s figure as she walked through the meadows, towards the town centre and away from him and his tower, his safe haven. Her servants’ dress was plain, the basket she held in her hand was common, and yet to Jaebeom, she stood out like the most eye-catching flower amongst the luscious greenery and the speckles of vibrant yellows and pinks. Like a main character of a play, she swayed and glided through the early spring blooms, becoming one with nature and completing the picture-perfect scenery.

There was an unmistakable pull towards this girl that Jaebeom could not articulate into words. He had only caught a glimpse of her face earlier before he hid himself, an action he now regretted as he longed and yearned to see her again. Something made him lean out of the window, his fingers itching to stretch towards her retreating figure.

That morning, he stayed by the window until late noon and the sun was high up in the sky, hoping, wishing, willing for her to return, the very opposite of his prayers earlier today. But that was before he was sure.

Now, as he sat by his desk in the candlelight, twirling a quill in his fingers while chewing on an apple, he knew.

He wrote:

“Mass is not proportional to volume

A girl as small as a violet

A girl who moves like a flower petal

is pulling me towards her with more force than her mass.

Just then, I am

Like Newtons Apple

I rolled towards her without stopping

Until I fell on her

With a thump, with a thump

My heart

Keeps bouncing between the sky and the ground

It was my first love.”

When he was younger, his fondest memories were of sitting with his grandma, helping her rub salt and chilli flakes onto napa cabbages while listening to her stories. She had many, but Jaebeom’s all-time favourite was a story of two lovers.

Two lovers separated by time and connected by a red string of fate – soulmates.

As his pinkie throbbed from the relentless tugging by an unseen red string towards the direction of the town, he could only sigh.

The girl who stumbled upon his vegetable garden and tripped over his cabbages was his soulmate.
