《broken walls // taeny》7- Forget it

"What did you just call me?" I stepped forward and looked up to glare into her eyes.
"Inconsiderate." She emphasized each syllable.
"Really?" I asked and chuckled in disbelief.
"Yeah." She said with more confidence which made my insides burn.
"You cannot call me that." I said pointing and jabbing her chests, obviously not hitting her breasts.
"Well I just did. Obviously. Want a reason? Because you ARE inconsiderate." Yuri walked closer but I did not move an inch.
"I am not." I fight back and she just laughs.
"Leaving us hanging after SHE left. Saying harsh words. Not thinking of how we feel." She scoffed and tried hard to not cry.
"Certainly, you don't know me then." I chuckled.
"Yuri stop." Sooyoung starts to pull on her arm but she shrugs it away.
"Unnie that's too harsh." The youngest starts too cry.
"C'mon unnie. Let's just go." The other tall one starts to get teary eyed too.
"Maybe I don't. Maybe because you are not our friend anymore. Maybe because you are one depressed hell of a person who cares about her own decisions. Maybe because you are a horrible person who lives in the past. Maybe because you don't care about us." Finally her tears drop and mine do too.
"Maybe because I'm doing all this for you all!" I slap her face and run away.
"RUN AWAY LIKE YOU ALWAYS DO! BE ALONE! WE WON'T CARE ANYMORE!" I heard Yuri yell to me but I just kept running.
Yes I do run away but I have always been considerate. I am trying not to repeat history for them. Because of me, I have put them in danger, if I get involved in anything with them then they will be in danger. If I am involved with them they will carry my burdens. I will hold my burdens because it's not their problem to solve. It's best if they don't come to me, they won't have to put up with my depressive self. They won't feel my saddening vibes. It's for the best anyway.
I run out the university and stand there. Many people stare but I don't give. It probably felt like hours where I've been standing but it's been 7 minutes.
I felt an electric shock spread through my body and soon I'm engulfed in a hug.

"Taeyeon. Don't go through this alone. I'm here for you." It's Tiffany.
"You might help me, but I just might shut you out. I don't want to put you in danger. I don't want you to keep up with me." I hug her back not because of my sadness, but because it just feels right.
"I'm willing to stay by your side. Why? I don't know." She chuckled and I do too.
"C'mon let's get ready." She drags my hand and makes her way to my car.
"Well I already called my boss about my absence so it's fine." I told her and she nodded.
"I can't believe you are letting me help you." She smiles to me.
"Well I basically have no choice right?" I replied and start to back up.
"Nope." She chuckled and I felt my heart skip beats, again.
"Whatever. I'll drop you off at your place first. Remember the time." I kept driving not sparing a glance.
"Yeah at 9 sharp. Blah blah if I'm not there then you will leave blah blah." She used her hands to emphasize the 'blah blah' part which made me giggle.
"Cute." I managed to say out loud.
In my peripherals, I saw her face blush red and she had the most cutest expression on.
"Hehe.. y-yah. Who are y-you calling c-cute?" She stuttered and tried to put on a tough persona.
"You." I shrugged and her cheeks were as red as a tomato.
"Yah stop." She lightly pushed me but I didn't retaliate since I was driving.
"Why I'm speaking the truth." I blantly stated.
I noticed her eyes turn into crescents. She must be touched.
As time passes by, I noticed I'm slowly getting comfortable with the American girl despite my abnormal heart beat. I'm no longer cold, well sometimes.
The question that has been ringing in my head is, why is she doing this?
The car is quiet and I sense her eyes on me.i turn and she widens her eyes and quickly turns around.
"Why were you staring at me?" I giggle and keep my eyes on the road.
"I-i was not!" She quickly denies and I chuckle.
"Whatever you say."
Soon we arrive at her porch and she gets out. I roll down my window and wave bye to her. She gets into the house and I leave.

What's happening with me? Why am I being so nice to her?
I shrugged off my thought as I was driving home. Then I thought about my fight with them, I may be cold, I may have ignored them, I may have never talked to them after she left, but I was NEVER inconsiderate. I thought about them the whole entire time. I may have been inconsiderate about their decisions but I thought about the outcomes for their decisions. I thought about them!
They don't know what I do. They don't know what I go through. They don't know me anymore.
They want to help me? Forget it! If you don't know what I do or why I do it then forget it.
But Tiffany was there to cheer my heart up, once I was engulfed in her hug I felt that the weight on my shoulders was lifting.
I arrived at home and I did the regular. I put some textbooks and art supplies in a seperate bag to bring on the 2 week trip. I brought down my luggages and put them inside the car. I made space in the trunk for Tiffany's things.
---
It was 8:30 and I was driving to Tiffany's. It takes about 20 minutes to get there. When it reaches 8:59 I will pull up on her driveway and wait. Once it turns to 9:01 then I will leave.
But weirdly, I want her to come. I have to stick with my words. Maybe 9:02 and I will consider? Whatever.
It's now 8:59 and I pull up on her driveway and I'm surprised she's standing there with her luggages smiling brightly.
Well damn.
She's early.
Once I parked she was stepping down the porch. I got out of the car and stopped her. She faced me with a confused look, I took her bags and she smiled.
"What a gentlewoman." She mumbled and I smiled.
I put her bags in the trunk and I got into my side of the car.
She got in her side and turned her phone on.
"Your dad knows about this?" I turned the car on but didn't start to move.
"Well he left for a month a few days ago, I texted him and he was unusually fine with it. Wonder why." She opened the camera app and held up her phone.
"C'mon let's take a selca~" She smiled and weirdly I obeyed.
We both smiled and she took the photo.
"WOWWW! You have such a nice smile Taeyeon! Look at your teeth so straight!" She took the photo and set it as her home screen.
"You are lucky. I never take selcas." I chuckle, I start to back up the car and I start to drive.
"Did you ever take one before?" She locked her phone.
"Yeah of course. But now, I never do." I flatly said.
"Why?"
She is one curious cat. But curiosity kills the cat and I don't want her to end up like them.
"I don't wanna kill you." I chuckle and she is probably confused.
"Kill me? What?"
I guess by baby steps she's trying to figure me out.
"Why are you so curious about me?" I took the courage and asked.
"Simply, because the first time I saw you, I was captivated, also you are one huge mystery and I am Sherlock Holmes!" She raised a fist in the air and I smiled.
"Cute." I simply stated.
"Stop! Don't say things like that!" She pouted and I chuckled.
"I'm only stating the truth." I turn and end up on a highway.
"Tch. Did you bring snacks?" She suddenly asked.
"Yeah they are on the back seat." I pointed without taking my eyes off the road.
"Ok thanks." She reaches her arm for the backseat and managed to get some oreos.
"Can I have one?" I shot my hand towards her but she didn't give me one.
"Say Ahhh. I want the driver to have two hands on the wheel. Not one, I don't wanna diee~" She whined and I shot a confused look.
Suddenly the thought of her feeding me made a red tainted color paint over my cheeks.
I slowly opened my mouth and said "Whatever, Ahh."
She put an oreo in my mouth and I ate it quietly.
"You are a really cute person. You know that?" She looked towards me and I blushed.
"Are you trying to flirt with me?" I questioned her.
"What happens if I am?"

Wildling
Blurb: Silas--a scavenger living off the ruins of humanity--has spent his entire life fighting tooth and nail to provide for himself and his crew. But when a scavenging run goes awry and he's snatched up by an android patrol, he finds himself thrown into a cage and priced to sell as a pet. And when a suitor comes calling, he fears the worst: that he'll be turned into a Domestic, a human lapdog brainwashed into total obedience. Instead, he discovers an equally disturbing truth: that the creatures who stole his world have created a videogame the likes of which Earth has never seen; a sprawling, game-like theme park where humans are the Avatars and androids are the players who control them. And to make matters worse, his android guide is as hopeless as they come, having gotten all of her previous Avatars killed in record time. So if Silas wants to regain his freedom, he'll not only have to fight his way through a world that was specifically designed to murder him in brutal fashion--he'll also have to convince his android guide that he should be the one calling the shots. FAQS: Q: Who are you, handsome stranger? A: I'm Kyle Kirrin, the author of Shadeslinger, book 1 of The Ripple System, published by Portal Books, and I write crunchy LitRPG. Q: What is Wildling? And is it complete? A: Wildling is a crunchy LitRPG mash up of Fantasy and Science Fiction. And yup, Wildling is already complete at 64 chapters, or about 120,000 thousand words. You're looking at something like a third draft here--it's fairly polished, but it hasn't been picked over by a copy editor yet nor has my developmental editor seen it. Q: Upload schedule? A: 5 initial chapters today (2/15/2021) and one chapter a day for the next month. After that I'll probably slow down to 2 or 3 chapters a week until the story is complete. Q: How crunchy is it? A: It's pretty crunchy. I'd put it on the same tier as Ascend/The Land/RSSG, but it might be a bit crunchier than those three? Q: Is this the first book in a series or a web novel or what? And what are your plans for it? A: It's currently a standalone with series potential. Full disclosure: this story may head the way of my publisher eventually, but will be available on RR for quite a while no matter what. Likely several months after it's complete with plenty of warning before/if it's taken down. Q: What kind of build does the MC create? A: Sword and board! Q: Crafting? A: Plenty! Crafting isn't as center stage as it is in The Way of the Shaman, but it's close. Q: Base building? A: Two fully separate, distinct bases, both of which play a major role in the story. Q: VRMMO? Portal? Reincarnation or what? A: This one's a bit tricky. Basically an advanced race has created a game-like world that closely resembles a theme park. Think Westworld but with copious amounts of loot. And the MC has to fight his way through that to earn his freedom. Q: Permadeath? A: Nope! The MC gets 3 lives to play through the entirety of the game world, and death is extremely punishing, but not fatal. Q: Harem? Or romance? A: No and no. Q: Cursing? Blood? A: Quite a bit of cursing, yeah. There's blood, too, but it's not a gory book by any means. Q: How can I support? A: Instead of a Patreon/donations etc, I'd ask that you consider giving my debut LitRPG Shadeslinger a chance. It's free on Kindle Unlimited and the audio is already out narrated by Travis Baldree. It's an epic fantasy VRMMO where the main character gets 3 days of exclusive access to a new game plus a snarky, talking axe to guide him through it in exchange for agreeing to become the target of a serverwide manhunt once the Head Start period ends. Q: How's it similar to Wildling? And how's it different? A. The crunch level is very similar, but Shadeslinger is a much lighter, epic fantasy take on the genre. It's also VRMMO, but without any real world components aside from the first chapter. The MC is very different--he comes off as a bit of a jerk early on and can take a bit to warm up to, especially before his backstory is revealed--but he's also got a talking axe that constantly puts him in his place. Shadeslinger's a much more humorous story in general, and it's a great deal more polished as well. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy Wildling!
