The morning sunlight shone brightly, making everything feel a little different.
Y/N woke up and found Taehyung sleeping beside her. He was pouting in his sleep, looking so calm and adorable.
Y/N smiled a little and gently touched his cheek.
Y/N: "I hope everything gets better soon."
After that, Y/N went to freshen up.
Flashback
It was the first night after Y/N and Taehyung got married. It was quiet and peaceful, but it wasn't as beautiful as Y/N had imagined.
Y/N sighed and sat on a chair, looking at herself in her wedding dress. She wondered how her life with Taehyung would be from now on.
Let me tell you what actually happened.
One year ago, Taehyung was in a terrible aΒ’Β’ident. His stepmother, who had raised and cared for him like her own son, had suddenly pa$ed away. He didn't know how she diβ¬d, and while trying to find out the truth, he got into a serious aΒ’Β’ident.
After the aΒ’Β’ident, Taehyung lost all his memories. His mind became like that of a five-year-old child. Although he was an adult, he behaved like a little kid and was no longer mentally mature.
That was when Y/N got married to Taehyung.
Taehyung had been Y/N's father's business partner, and her father arranged their marriage.
It wasn't a forced marriage.
Y/N had loved Taehyung ever since she first saw him five years ago, even though she never admitted her feelings. Her love for him didn't change, even after she learned about his condition.
She always admired how kind, gentle, and caring he was to everyone, including his employees.
Even though she had never really talked to him before, she still loved him.
Y/N believed that she would do everything she could to help Taehyung remember his past and become himself again. Even if it never worked, she wouldn't regret trying. All she wanted was to give him a chance and never give up on him.
Y/N went to freshen up.
When she came back, she saw Taehyung sitting on the bed, waiting for her. He kept looking at her without saying anything.
Y/N suddenly felt nervous. She didn't know why... maybe it was because he kept staring at her.
She walked closer and smiled.
Y/N: "Why aren't you sleeping, Taehyung?"
Taehyung looked at her with a confused face.
Taehyung: "Whyyy are uu here...? A-are uu the same as the old miss...? Daddy hired her because everyone said I'm un$table and need someone to take care of me... B-but where is Miss Cha...? And why did Daddy say uu are my wife...? Whaaat does wife mean...?"
He asked innocently while tilting his head.
Y/N was surprised by his questions. She didn't know how to explain everything in a way he would understand.
She smiled softly and sat on the couch beside the bed.
Y/N: "Umm... okay, let me explain."
She took a deep breath.
Y/N: "I'm here to stay with you and keep you company. I'm not like the old caretaker. I'll stay with you forever."
She smiled gently.
Y/N: "And you're not un$table, okay? Don't ever think that."
She paused for a moment before continuing.
Y/N: "As for a wife... a wife is someone who stays by your side, takes care of you, protects you, spends time with you, and never leaves you alone. A husband does the same for his wife. We both take care of each other without even asking."
Taehyung looked at her with a confused expression. After thinking for a few seconds, he slowly nodded.
Taehyung: "Sooo... uu won't leave me...? Like... never ever...?"
Y/N: "Never."
Taehyung: "Reaaally...?"
Y/N: "Really."
A small smile appeared on his face.
Taehyung: "Then... can I call uu whenever I want...?"
Y/N: "Of course."
Taehyung: "Even if it's late at night...?"
Y/N: "Yes."
Taehyung: "Even if I'm scared...?"
Y/N's heart softened.
Y/N: "Especially when you're scared."
Taehyung smiled brightly.
Taehyung: "Yaaay... then I like having a wife!"
Y/N couldn't help but laugh.
Y/N: "I'm glad."
Taehyung suddenly looked at her again.
Taehyung: "Sooo... wives give hugs toooo...?"
Y/N blinked.
Y/N: "Only if you want one."
Taehyung quickly opened his arms like an excited little child.
Taehyung: "I waaant oneee!"
Y/N smiled warmly and gave him a gentle hug.
Taehyung happily hugged her back and rested his head on her shoulder.
Taehyung: "You're sooo warm..."
After a few seconds, he yawned.
Taehyung: "I'm sleepy now..."
Y/N gently patted his head.
Y/N: "Then let's go to sleep."
Taehyung nodded obediently, lay down on the bed, and held the edge of Y/N's sleeve like a little child.
Taehyung: "Don't go anywhere... okayyy...?"
Y/N: "I won't."
Hearing those words, Taehyung closed his eyes with a small smile. Within minutes, he fell asleep peacefully, still holding onto her sleeve as if he was afraid she might disappear.
Present Day
The flashback ended.
Y/N smiled to herself as she remembered their first night together.
Her fingers slowly touched her own cheek.
For some reason, her heart skipped a beat.
She could still remember how Taehyung had suddenly opened his arms and asked for a hug with those sparkling eyes.
"I waaant oneee!"
Just thinking about it made her cheeks turn pink.
It was only a simple hug...
Yet it had made her heart race the whole night.
She had liked Taehyung for five years, and that was the very first time he had ever hugged her.
Even though he had done it innocently, without knowing anything about love, Y/N couldn't stop herself from feeling butterflies in her stomach.
Whenever he held her hand, looked at her with those innocent eyes, or called her in his cute little voice, her heart would melt.
His childlike smile...
His tiny pouts...
The way he stretched his words.
Everything about him made her heart flutter.
She knew he wasn't acting that way on purpose.
To him, she was simply someone he trusted.
But to Y/N...
Every little moment with him became a precious memory.
She smiled softly before shaking her head.
Y/N (thinking): Stop it, Y/N... He's just being innocent.
Just thenβ
Taehyung: "Y/Nnnn...?"
His sleepy voice came from the bedroom.
Y/N immediately turned around.
She saw Taehyung sitting on the bed with messy hair, rubbing his eyes like a sleepy little kitten.
He looked around the room before spotting her.
His face instantly brightened.
Taehyung: "There uu areee... I thought uu disappeared..."
He quickly got off the bed and walked toward her with tiny, sleepy steps.
Without thinking twice, he wrapped his arms around her waist.
Taehyung: "Good morninggg..."
Y/N froze.
Her heartbeat became even faster than before.
Thump.
Thump.
Thump.
She looked down at as he is hugging her so comfortably, completely unaware of what he was doing to her heart.
Y/N smiled helplessly and gently patted his soft hair.
Y/N: "Good morning, Tae."
Taehyung looked up at her and smiled so brightly that it almost made her forget how to breathe.
Taehyung: "Can uu make breakfast...? I'm huuungryyyy..." he whined, pouting like a little child.
Y/N chuckled.
Y/N: "Okay. But first, let me go."
Taehyung shook his head dramatically.
Taehyung: "Nooo... one more minuteee..."
Y/N sighed with a smile, letting him stay like that for a little longer.
Somehow...
These peaceful mornings with him were slowly becoming her favorite part of every day.
