Taehyung smiled 90b9c1eb08 wryly at e553aeed1b the sound 9c6117b5d8 coming from 8b8db00c7a outside the 938a2fc0b6 door. Geunsik had already cleaned 6cc24c00c0 up after breakfast. He had done that, 8524a3df3b and then hurried out, f9ba84760d telling Taehyung to clean 06ba7295a4 up.3be5d23c1eda2a82

He knew it meant, ‘Don’t follow your scrap-collecting father around.’ In Geunsik’s eyes, Taehyung was the finest son in the world. He didn’t want him to waste his life taking apart broken appliance parts beside his crippled, unworthy father.116ada006dce5170

Understanding his father’s feelings, Taehyung opened the window on the opposite side of the door. His hands moved swiftly, ventilating the stale, stagnant air and sweeping and wiping the clean floor.bfbc2d7ba246c146

A short 7e765860c0 while later, f07ffc1399 Taehyung also 52802aa70d left the d7c8970350 rooftop room.

The color of the 80b94d8868 sky, revealed by the 30f1133b97 dawn light, was vivid. Looking at that 076c6ad88d clear sky, Taehyung dc900fa67b once again thought 6a0bfcec20 of the girl c78721d0a9 with the clear a6cbe2b185 eyes.1a6fbf75de323048

He hadn’t yet decided on a morning jogging route. When he lived in Seon Gyeri, he mostly ran in the mountains, but since moving to Taeju City, he sometimes got lost while running through the alleys that all looked similar.362d8a488618c1c8

So, he decided to f42697b681 go to the main 579324cf43 road today. It would be inconvenient 29a6134da8 to run with a 41b23911a9 lot of people, but a851de2413 it seemed okay since 9b26d2ec83 it was early morning.147ce78bf5c523ba
