Chapter Seven
Taehyung protruded his lips when Seokjin finally tried the chicken curry that he just cooked for the stylist.
He's not that good in cooking but he's confident with the dish that he just made bur having Jin infront of him makes him feel anxious.
It's as if someone just took the knife stabbed on his chest when Seokjin finally smiled giving him a two thumbs up while continuously bobbing his head, "It's delicious!"
Seokjin stopped and remained staring at the model letting out a very faint smile as he saw how Taehyung's lips curved into an adorable boxy smile.
Taehyung bit his lower lips and scratched his nape, "You know, it's nice when you're not shouting at me." He chuckled.
Seokjin let out a small laugh before shoving another spoonful of rice with the curry.
"Maybe I wont do that if you can stop teasing me." He mocked.
Taehyung stared at the younger raising his brows at him letting out a smirk that made Seokjin blushed because of how good he looks doing that.
"We should be more civil towards each other."
Seokjin's lips formed into a small pout that made Taehyung licked his lower lips just by staring at those pink plump lips.
Having to taste those heavenly lips made him wants it more and more. Though, he knows that Seokjin doesnt want it as he's in a relationship with that photographer- he cant f*****g help it.
Taehyung looked away clearing his throat standing up while running his hands through his hair.
The model waited for Seokjin to finish his food so that he can wash the dishes. The stylist even volunteered that he will do it instead but Taehyung wont let him.
The both of them agreed to just stay in the living room. Taehyung suggested to watch a movie just so Seokjin will have a reason to stay.
It's actually nice to have someone inside his luxurious apartment since he's never the one to just invite random people because he value his home so much.
"Dont you want to go back to modelling?" Taehyung asked.
Seokjin stopped playing with his fingers as he shifted his position to look at the model.
He let out a faint sigh remembering the days where he's still in that field. He missed it.
"I love doing it so much. I love being infront of the camera," Seokjin's voice started to shake, "I cant though. I'll just make myself look even more stupid." He breathed out.
Taehyung furrowed his brows in confusion. Why?
Seokjin has all the qualities every company, brand and people is looking for as a top model.
Yes, he did quit but he can go back anytime he wants because of his undeniable charms.
"If you really want it, you can go back." Taehyung said trying to encourage the younger.
He can see the passion in Seokjin's eyes. He knows that he really loves modelling.
"Im dyslexic..."
Taehyung frozed in his spot and just stared on Seokjin. He gulped down when he saw the younger looked down looking so embarassed because of his sudden confession.
"I.. Im so dumb," Seokjin's voice starts to cracked, "Oh! Goodness. It's embarassing." He rolled his eyes.
"It's fun, of course. That's my passion. I will just smile and pose for the camera but at some point I need to do interviews..."
Seokjin mocked himself as he remembered that day, the day that made him give up on his passion.
"Of course, the only one who knows it are my manager and family. I have an interview and the MC suddenly asked me to read..."
Seokjin rolled his eyes as he looked up wiping the tears that is continuously flowing from his eyes.
"It was just so so hard. I cant find my manager and they're telling me to hurry up. I got so nervous and.. and.. f**k," He sighed, "I cant really read even a word out of nervousness that's why my whole body starts to shake and I collapsed." He said.
They discovered that Seokjin has dyslexia when he's eight years old.
It was fine, his family did everything for him to get better.
He can read. Yes, it takes a lot of minute for him to be able to read the whole sentence but he can do it and sometimes he spells the word wrong but it's still bearable- he's trying so hard.
That day, it just gets hard for him. He just got so nervous. He panicked. He's scared of someone knowing his secret, fear starts to consume him and as if the people mocking him momentarily crossed his mind- the reason as to why he blacked out.
"Damn! I cant even text and spell the words right." Seokjin said shaking his head.
Taehyung pulled Seokjin closer to his chest and the younger immediately buried his face on the model's neck silently crying.
He shut his eyes closed when he felt Taehyung's hand running small circles on his back trying to bring him a little bit of comfort.
"You have problems, sunshine," Taehyung whispered, "All of us do but you're not dumb or stupid. If anything, you're so strong." The model said pressing a kiss on his temples.
Seokjin cried harder becaus of the kind words of Taehyung.
Those words made him want to breakdown and just cry his heart out.
It's just so hard for him.
Up until now, he always stays up all night trying to read a book only to continuously hit his head for not being able to get the words right.
He's texting Jungkook. Though, he gets really embarassed because of how short his messages is and it's always spelt wrong.
He just got so lucky that his boyfriend understand him and will always assure him that he has no problem with it.
After that incident, he got so afraid to face the camera again. Though, they said that he has some health problems and he needs to get his proper treatment first.
That was all a lie, he never came back. He doesnt want to be in spotlight anymore.
He got so scared. He doesnt want to collapsed because he's scared of embarassing himself and the people who believes in him.
"Thanks, Taehyung." He whispered.
