《broken walls // taeny》8- Blush
Advertisement
That got me stunned. Never knew she would be so straight forward.
"Are you blushing?" She asked. Never I knew she was this straight forward. She was confident too.
"Tch. No." I replied and frowned as I kept my eyes on the road.
"Whatever you say then." She chuckled and took her phone out once again.
In the corner of my eyes, I saw her looking at the selca we just took. I couldn't help but notice her changing it to her wallpaper.
What a cutie.
"Tiffany?" I called out and she just replied with a "Hmm."
"Have you ever had a boyfriend?" I took other all my confidence and asked.
"Yeah of course I have." She laughed.
I couldn't help but frown at the response. She's straight huh? WAIT. Why do I care? I might be considering her as a friend but not that! Yes, I might be a lesbian but that doesn't mean I always go for the people around me!
"Ok." I replied rather coldly.
"Have you?" She asked and I just nodded.
Yes, I may be a lesbian but I did have a boyfriend. It was actually an ok relationship though. We never had sex but it was alright. He took me to places, basically the roles I would be doing if I were in a gay relationship.
But once I knew I didn't want to have sex with him, like ever. I ended things. He was a pretty good guy, a great actor too. He had a nice personality. I didn't want to get his hopes up high so I killed them in return. Our breakup was not a bad one, it was pretty fair if you ask me. It was clean! Probably we had the chance out of 1/194728637277481877288 in the world to have a clean break up right?
"So why did this ex become an ex?" She asked and my jaw opened, not too widely.
"We figured if there was no love there would be no point in having a relationship." I shrugged like it was nothing.
"Clean ending?" She raised an eyebrow.
"Mhm. Clean ending." I nodded.
"Wow. What luck." She slammed her back into the chair and heaved a sigh.
"What about yours?" I took the chance and asked.

"Well, for one he cheated. Slept with girls and I found out he just wanted to take my virginity. In fact, he did. I found out he cheated by reading a text. Like right after we had sex. So I questioned him, we fought. When we went to the club together I went to dance and when I went back he was making his way to a room with a girl latch onto him. It was actually my friend, Victoria. When I asked for a breakup he didn't allow it, so the stupidness in me arised and accepted him. He said he would change but nothing happened. So I'm like fuck you I'm leaving." She chuckled near the end and I smiled.
"Yeah you deserve so much more than him. What's his name anyways?" I took one hand off the wheel and sat in comfort.
"Nichkhun. Nichkhun Horvejkul."
"Ahh. Thai?"
"Yeah. What his name?" She questioned.
"Byun Baekhyun." I heaved out a smile remembering how he would always care about me.
"Ahhh~ Hahahaha!" She started to laugh really loudly and I shot a confused stare.
"Why?"
"I know him! I went to the school where he was at and we kept in contact. He is now gay. He met a popular rapper there. People hated him especially girls. He's tall and very handsome. What a musician. They both fell in love and now boom. They are together." She emphasized using her hands.
I'm speechless. My jaw dropped. H-he was dating Z-Hera before. I was certain he liked girls. Looks like love does change people. Thinking about love just forms a smile on my face.
Thinking about the condition I'm in just wipes the smile away. I can't experience what it's like to be back in a relationship due to my depressive self. Gosh. I am one complicated person.
"What is his boyfriend's name?" I asked.
"Chanyeol, Park Chanyeol." She smiled.
"Ahh.. looks like he followed what he said before." I mumbled under my breath as I revealed a smile.
Flashback:
It was a warm night in Seoul. Here I am with Baekhyunnie ready to reveal to him what I planned.
"Baek... I need to tell you something."I Jung my head low and he stared at me as he sipped on his bubble tea.

"What is it Taengoo?" He looked to me, ready for the reveal.
"We should break up." I didn't have the courage to look back at him.
"Well, I had a feeling it would end up like this anyways." He sighed taking his mouth of the straw.
"I'm sorry." I shed a small tear and he immediately wiped it off.
"Don't worry about it. Just remember, no matter who it is, no matter what gender, race, or anything. No matter what consequences it will bring you, ." He stood up and kissed my forehead.
He took his bubble tea and waved bye to me.
END OF FLASHBACK
That memory made me smile. He was a really good guy.
"Must of been a good relationship if he would get you smiling like that?"
"He treated me nicely, besides that wasn't the best relationship I've had." I scoffed and I noticed the atmosphere turn... weird.
"Then who was your best relationship with then?' She pulled the trigger and dared.
"A person I loved. I fell in love with that person but the way it ended, no one should ever go through that much suffering." I clenched my jaw as the memories of the past returned.
"I'm guessing it probably took place years ago and you're still suffering. Since it's personal I won't ask further." She placed jer hand on my thigh which received a jolt.
She started to rub it reassuringly and my cheeks heated up in an instant.
"Thank you." I smiled and she nodded.
"What about you? Who's your best relationship?" I asked.
"Uhhh... after Nichkhun cheated on me. I-I ummm... hah.. I had one night stands no more relationships." She scratched the back of her neck and shyly smiled.
"Ahhh playgirl?"
"People called me that. But I stopped about 3 years ago cause my cousin kinda needed help." She shrugged and I felt relieved. Why? I have no idea.
Is it that she changed?
"So you're still a playgirl?"
"Nope. I just had one night stands because I was drunk. I drank often and got pretty frisky. When they woke up I was gone. Hated living like that cause the people that recognized me were with their significant others and yeah. Besides, if I find someone I really admire and or like why get drunk and have sex with other people that don't matter to me?" She shrugged like it was nothing.
Wait? She likes someone?
"Ok."
Soon the atmosphere was pretty claustrophobic. The quiet area was killing me. Usually I would never talk but she makes me want to speak like I was the Old Taeyeon.
"Taeyeon?" She called out to me.
"Hm?"
"Tell me about yourself." She demanded but it wasn't forceful.
"I thought you would figure me out on your own."
"Why not have a quick start?"
"Alright, Kim Taeyeon, 22 years old, aspiring to become an artist, don't know what kind yet. I like Bulgogi, gummy worms and yeah." I said the information everyone knows.
"Ok, my turnnnn~ Tiffany Hwang! 21 years old! Since it's April my birthday will come up soon. It's August 1st! I like eels and pink!" She clapped in the end and she was really energetic.
"Ok."
She's a really bubbly person. Sometimes she has this mysterious aura surrounding her then the next second she's clapping her hands as she laughs. What a cutie. Wait what am I thinking about?
I noticed she has many friends back at the uni. Many consist of the popular students, not that group but people like, Amber, Bora, Hyorin, Dasom, Soyou, Nicole, Eunhyuk, Donghae etc.
Speaking of Eunhyuk, is the dancing queen with him? Before she would always speak about Eunhyuk. She really likes him. Did she get the guts and confess?
"Taeyeon? Uhmm.. where would I be staying at Jeonju?"
"Well, I have a place there, the rooms are vacant. There are rooms that you are not allowed to enter in and I repeat never enter. Only my room is pretty much vacant. I can sleep on the couch while you can sleep in my room."
"No. What kind of bed is it?"
"Queen."
"Alright WE can sleep there."
"Wha- uhmm.. wai- ugh.. u-us i-in one bed?" I started to blush and stutter.
"Awww is Taeyeonnie blushing? She's also stuttering! Awww~ she's opening up to me!" She showed her famous eye-smile and I frowned.
"Soo what if I am?"

Ursus Ex Machina
Ozzy was a man of the wild. Raised in a remote village atop the world's mightiest mountain, he'd been taught to respect and revere the natural world. The realm he was born into had been there long before him, and it would remain there long after him. Sure, there was the occasional madman who threatened to destroy it, but such boasts were always empty. No one individual was actually capable of demolishing this beautiful blue-and-green ball Ozzy called home. No matter what terrible magics these villains wielded, they were incapable of causing permanent harm to the environment. Even if the planet was completely devastated, it would recover. Life would find a way to flourish, same as it always had. That was what Ozzy believed from the bottom of his heart, so he never once felt the need to save the world he loved. After all, it was never truly in danger. The world would be fine no matter what. The people were a wee bit endangered, but that was another story altogether. However, what would happen if Ozzy suddenly found himself devoid of his beloved wilds? What would the man do if the realm he knew - one of wonder, magic, and chaos - was replaced with a man-made environment of concrete, industry, and steam? Ozzy could never imagine such a thing happening, and yet that was his new reality. After losing a fateful confrontation with a mad wizard, he and his friends found themselves transported to a strange world so thoroughly alien that every waking moment feels like a fever dream. Separated and scattered to the four corners of this land, each of these adventurers will need to adapt, survive, and overcome if they hope to reunite. They would also need to do so quickly. The sooner they are able to find one another, the sooner they can figure out a way back home and have another crack at putting an end to the villain's plans. Whether such a thing was actually possible in a world with barely any magic in it was a valid concern, but Ozzy had more immediate things to worry about. For instance, why did the air smell like a perpetual forest fire? How did ships sail through the sky as if it were water? And most importantly, was the pavement he was hurtling towards at high speed much softer than it looked? Probably not, but a man could hope.

Protagonist: The Whims of Gods
Book one now also on Amazon! After quitting her job as a therapist and grabbing some work at a dog shelter, Tess's life became pretty slow. A tad boring, even. It thus came as no small surprise when she was chosen by a god. Thrust into a new world where magic, monsters, and character levels are suddenly a reality, Tess will quickly find that just surviving can be a challenge. It doesn't help that dark forces are stirring, she's woefully underpowered, and that spiders keep trying to claw her face off. One thing's for certain, though: The possibilities are endless. Will she end up wrestling a dragon? Becoming an arch-mage? Opening a quaint, bookstore, coffee shop, and wine bar for elves? The choice is hers... As long as she can live long enough to make it. Protagonist is a fairly classic LitRPG novel with character levels, classes, stats, settlements, and other LitRPG elements. Unlike a lot of LitRPG stories, while the protagonist has some perks, she doesn't start off overpowered. You can expect to see her struggle as she advances. This novel also takes the opportunity to explore some less frequently seen builds, shying away from any min-maxing. Chapters are about ~2000-3000 words and are released at 8:00am ET every other day.
