In the Mallory Bash film script, there's a derelict named Charlie Siegal--quite clearly modeled after Tom Waits. The first couple times you see him, he's a bit of a mumbly, wandering enigma. His first major scene is as a comedy relief, but then he has this moment (the first image here) where he goes from rambling derelict to insightful vagabond--which I feel is pretty Waitsian.

somehow these current roommates we have are the worst that ive known yet and last semester we literally had a girl who smoked cigs IN her bedroom. list of grievances below lol
#first of all they turn all the lights on all the time. the other day i was hanging out in the living room w one light on bc it was light#enough outside thru the windows and one of them walked in and flipped another light on automatically. then walked through#the living room right to her bedroom... girl youre not even using this room and i was clearly fine with the light level??#they always have all 3 kitchen lights on when they cook and dont turn them off plus none of them have lamps#they all use the Big LED Ceiling Light in their bedrooms which is baffling to us#they dont know how to organize the kitchen and they took up so many of the cabinets with bullshit. like 3 pans here a few plates there#we have like 4 cabinets worth of food and even more of pots and pans and shit bc this is everything we own#and we cant afford to use disposable everything like some of them do#theyre always leaving the fridge open while they cook too and i have to physically hold myself back from becoming my mom#and yelling at them to close the fridge when theyre not actively getting smth out of it!! like theyll stand there cooking and have it open#for 2 minutes straight#theres only room for one water filter pitcher in the fridge and one of them brought a big one which is nice but theyre always forgetting to#refill it which defeats the purpose of even having it#and they always somehow start cooking right when we decide we need to eat#one of them sent this long sort of condescending post abt ants and how it stresses him out when the kitchen is messy so we all need to clean#more and try harder to keep ants away as if 1) ants care at all abt dishes in the sink or stains on the stove and 2) as if the ants will#stop coming around if theres no food out in this building where there are notoriously always ants even on the 4th floor#(we are ground floor this time) and 3) as if he isn't one of the people leaving food around and not taking the trash out#nobody responded to it in the groupchat lmao bc he sounds like a fucking cop!! and is dating an rotc guy??? and also is a streamer or just#likes to play games on vc with friends bc hes always very loudly doing that#but obviously we have sex all the time so we're at a sort of loud noise stalemate where neither of us can complain abt the other#to be clear this is in no way the absolute worst situation theyre nice enough people and havent reported us for anything (they both work for#student housing -_-) and generally things go okay in the apartment#but like. ive never been this annoyed this often with any other roommates#ALSO someone spilled soy sauce all over our designated level of the fridge door where we had all our little bottles of stuff#but also a carton a Paper Carton of milk and a pack of butter standing upright which soaked up the soy sauce and for several days#even after id cleaned the bottom of the carton the best i could i swore it tasted like soy sauce from it soaking into the bottom or smth#but it's still all over everything in there bc it was so much it like. pooled in there and splattered on everything#like. u see that happen u clean it up wtf.??#anyway i just felt like i needed to complain and see if im being silly or if these things really are so annoying

At my sonâs school, we pay for his lunch at the cafeteria every Friday. I usually take the time to pack him one every other day of the week, but his father and I are just too busy between work and getting him to the bus on time. The district promised balanced meals, and their brochure had lots of pictures of fruits and veggies. It all looked completely above-board.
My kid has never been that picky of an eater, aside from broccoli. But today, he came home with a carton of milk he didnât touch. He told me he had it last week and didnât like how âspicyâ it was. Should I be concerned? Iâve never heard of this brand before and something about the packaging worries meâŚ
You can buy this design on t-shirts, mugs, prints, and plenty of other cool stuff here on Redbubble:

the dbd crew absolutely lacks the ability to understand money. like edwin and charles haven't had to buy anything non-magical in 30+ years, crystal was the kind of rich to buy designer toothpaste if she felt like it, and niko was born and raised in japan with a very different currency than the states. needless to say, local father-figure-by-default jenny has her work cut out for her.
jenny: ok, just off the top of your head, how much would you pay for a carton of milk?
edwin: 15 pence
charles: i dunno, a 'buck 50?
crystal (confidently): 12 dollars
niko: *doing math*

KISS OR SKIP.. - rafe cameron smau
prev - masterlist - next
a/n: they're cute igđ
Topper stepped forward a grin plastered on his face. âWhatâs up guys? Welcome back to the channel"
He gestured dramatically at the tables before them, each neatly arranged with bowls, whisks, and a chaotic assortment of baking supplies. âToday weâre doing something a little different. Weâre going to bake cakes!â
âBut" Topper continued pausing for effect âthereâs a catch.â He leaned in slightly the camera zooming to capture his expression. âWeâre doing it without a recipe.â
âThis is going to be a disaster.â
"Speak for yourself"
âLetâs introduce the teams" Topper says, stepping into the frame. He slings an arm around a smiling brunette next to him. âFirst up weâve got me and my lovely girlfriend Ruthie"
Ruthie waves at the camera her smile warm and a little shy.
âNext" Topper continues, pointing to the next pair âweâve got Sofia and⌠unfortunately my least favorite Cameron, Sarah.â
Sarah doesnât miss a beat. She flips him off with a deadpan expression while Sofia bursts into laughter.
âAnd finally" Topper announces, turning toward the last duo "weâve got Rafe and a very special guest. You might remember her from my last video" The camera pans to Emi who immediately starts laughing and covers her face with her hands "....Emi!"
âHello" Emi waves cheerfully at the camera, her bright smile lighting up the room. Rafe standing next to her, doesnât say a word, just watching her with a faint smirk
âI have to warn you guys you should probably be scared" Emi says as she ties her pink hair into a ponytail.
Rafe steps over to grab two aprons, handing her a pink one while slipping on a blue one himself.
âOh yeah? And whyâs that?â Sofia asks tying her own apron
Emi glances over, her smirk widening. âBecause I grew up baking cakes. My mom owns a pastry shop.â
The room goes quiet for a moment, their playful smiles faltering. Sofia glances nervously at her Sarah
"We're fucked"
Rafe leans in closer his voice low so only Emi can hear. âDidnât you say your mom is a fashion designer?â
She glances at him her lips curling into a mischievous smile. âShe is" she whispers back. âI just lied to freak them out. I donât know shit baking cakes.â
Rafe stares at her for a beat then lets out a low chuckle. âSo what youâre saying isâŚIâm doing all the work?â
Emi flashes him a sweet almost innocent smile, batting her lashes dramatically. âExactly. But donât worry, Iâll keep you company.â
He shakes his head, a smirk tugging at his lips. âLucky me" he mutters already reaching for the mixing bowl.
âWhat flavor are we going for? Vanilla?â Emi asks glancing at Rafe. He nods with a hum of approval
She heads to the fridge, grabbing the essentials theyâll need- milk, eggs, and butter before pausing to add a carton of fresh strawberries to the mix. Returning to the table, she sets everything down in front of Rafe
âFigured we could level it up a bit"
Rafe smiles pulling her into a quick side hug before turning his attention back to the batter. As he works on mixing it, Emi takes charge of the heavy cream. She divides it into two bowls, adding a drop of pink food coloring to one and blue to the other. A small smile tugs at her lips as she stirs
âSo Emi how are you liking it here so far?â Ruthie asks her tone warm and curious.
She looks up from her bowl meeting Ruthieâs gaze with a friendly smile. âItâs really pretty" she says, pausing for a moment before adding with a laugh "and really hot too.â
Without thinking twice, Rafe leans in with a smirk. âYeah because Iâm standing next to you.â
Emi rolls her eyes, her cheeks tinged with the faintest blush as she lightly smacks his arm. âYouâre annoying" she mutters though the smile tugging at her lips betrays her amusement.
âWhat was that?â he teases pretending he didnât hear her as he steps closer, his arms braced on either side of her trapping her against the counter. âSay it again.â
Emi laughs, trying to wiggle free. âStop it. Iâm trying to finish the creams.â
âNot until you repeat it" he murmurs, his voice low as he leans in closer his lips just near her ear.
âHey you two" Sarah shouts pointing a spoon in their direction. âHands off each other and keep it PG, will you?â
Emi glances at Sarah, sticking out her tongue playfully. Anyway, she thought to herself, we let all that sexual tension go two days ago.
It wasnât anything wild just a little make-out session. They had been lying in his bed, watching How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and before either of them realized it, things escalated. It just⌠happened. Then again the next day, and again...
She couldnât help the small smile tugging at her lips as the memories played through her mind. Were they a thing? Emi wasnât sure. They flirted, kissed sometimes, but nothing was ever confirmed.
Usually Emi was the bold one in relationships, never shy about making the first move. But with Rafe, it felt different. She was hesitant, almost nervous to ask the question she knew was looming.
Maybe it was because she liked him more than sheâd planned to. More than she was ready to admit. And then there was his fame, which played a huge role in all of this. Emi had never been one to doubt herself she was confident, unapologetically so.
She was confident when it came to talking to Rafe, too, never second-guessing herself around him. But the comments his fans left? She wouldnât admit it aloud, but they stung. Just a little. The constant judgment, the expectations- it wore on her more than she cared to admit.
âHey whereâd you go?â Rafe snaps his fingers in front of Emiâs face, pulling her back to the present.
Emi hums her eyes twinkling with mischief. âJust thinking about how to sabotage Topperâs cake. You in?â
She flashes him a playful smile and he laughs, shaking his head. âHow can I say no to you?"
Letâs just say Topperâs cake is about to get a little too salty.
Sofia walks over to them, and Emi raises an eyebrow, clearly skeptical. The brunette immediately throws her hands up in surrender. âHey Iâm just bored.â
Rafe flicks her forehead. âUh-huh sure. Youâre definitely up to something.â
âCan I have the blue?â Sofia asks eyeing the food coloring.
Emi immediately shakes her head, not even hesitating. âNo.â
âWhat?â Sofia huffs in disbelief.
âBe original" Emi shoots back with a grin. âPinkâs mine, blueâs for Rafe.â
âYou donât own blue.â
âIâll gatekeep it if I have to"
Rafe grabs the food coloring, slips it into his pocket and casually drapes his arm around Emiâs shoulder. âShe said no" he says with a smug grin.
Sofia glares at him then turns to Topper. âThis is cheating.â
Topper looks at her genuinely confused. âJust grab the green coloring" he says nonchalantly, as if itâs the most obvious solution.
Sofia narrows her eyes, pointing at the two with a mischievous look. âYou two better be careful."
As Rafe slides the batter into the oven, he turns to Emi whoâs casually perched on the counter, munching on strawberries.
âWe got them for the cakeâ he says stepping closer with a grin.
Emi shrugs nonchalantly, popping another strawberry into her mouth. âI love strawberries"
He leaned over the counter, his hands gripping the edge as he opened his mouth with a teasing smile, waiting for the last bite of the strawberry.
She handed it to him, but just as her fingers brushed against his lips, he playfully bit down on her finger. She gasped quickly pulling her hand back. âOh Iâm never feeding you again"
Rafe smirked, his forehead gently pressing against hers as he spoke in a low, teasing tone. âWho are you lying to?â
Her breath hitched at the proximity, her heart skipping a beat. She grabbed another strawberry, trying to distract herself but before she could take a bite, Rafe snatched it from her hand with a grin.
âHey"
He loved messing with her. Every time he teased Emi, sheâd blush a reaction he hadnât expected at first. She always seemed so bold, and most of the time she was.
But then there were moments like this, when a simple comment or a subtle touch would leave her cheeks tinged pink. And every time it happened, it drove him absolutely crazy in the best way. Some people might say this was moving too fast, but for Rafe, it felt just right like everything was falling into place.
She was only supposed to be here for a week, but that wasnât going to cut it. Heâd already decided he was canceling that return ticket. No way was she leaving so soon. Heâd book her another one for next week or the week after, if he had his way. And he would make it happen.
The way she furrowed her brows and pouted in concentration had him completely captivated. Her little quirks, the way she bit her lip when she was thinking, drove him wild. He didnât even realize he was staring, his own lip caught between his teeth as the urge to kiss her grew stronger with every passing second.
âTheyâre not even dating" Topper says to his girlfriend, watching the so-called lovebirds laughing together like no one else exists.
âGive them a day" she whispers with a grin stifling a laugh of her own.
It was becoming routine for their friends to witness this dynamic ever since Emi arrived. The two were practically joined at the hip. Whether it was playful touches, head wrestling, or even sneaking kisses, their chemistry was impossible to ignore. And of course, they had Sarah to thank for catching them in the act more than once.
After thirty minutes of baking and decorating, the three cakes were finally ready. Topper and Ruthieâs creation looked like it was barely holding together, Rafe and Emiâs cake was decent though the strawberries were cut a little unevenly and Sarah and Sofiaâs cake easily looked the most professional.
Topper had called his mom in the kitchen to be the judge. As she took one look at the cakes, her eyes landed on Topperâs leaning tower of disaster. âIâm about to be so judgmental" she announced with a laugh, looking the mess in front of her.
She took a bite of their cake, and the moment it hit her tongue, she coughed her face twisting in disbelief. âRuthie I thought you couldâve at least saved this cake? Why is it so salty?â
Meanwhile Rafe leaned against the counter, his lips twitching as he tried not to laugh. Emi pressed her hand to her mouth, struggling to keep her own giggles contained as Ruthieâs voice rose in the background, blaming her boyfriend
Mrs. Thornton stepped over to Sarah and Sofiaâs cake her expression softening as she carefully sliced into it. The room went quiet as she took a bite chewing it smowly. A small, satisfied smile tugged at her lips and for a moment hope flickered in the air.
âItâs⌠dry" she said finally âBut still, itâs better than whatever mess my son and his girlfriend attempted.â
Topper groaned, dragging his hands down his face in utter defeat. Ruthie glared at him, crossing her arms tightly, her frustration practically radiating off her.
Sarah grinned. âWeâll take that" she said, sharing a high-five with Sofia.
Mrs. Thornton then turned her attention to Emi and Rafeâs cake, her eyebrow arching as she studied the slightly messy frosting. âWell itâs⌠something"
Emi reached for Rafeâs hand, her fingers curling around his as they both waited for what she has to say. Mrs. Thornton cut a small slice, tasting it cautiously.
Her eyes widened in surprise. âWait⌠this is actually very good" she said her voice tinged with genuine amazement.
âWe won" Emi shouted her eyes sparkling with excitement. Without a second thought she jumped into Rafeâs arms, wrapping her arms around his neck and holding on tight. The others immediately burst into a mix of protests
âShe hasnât decided yet"
âOurs looks way better"
âLetâs just wait-"
Mrs. Thornton rolled her eyes, clearly done with the back-and-forth. âI thought I made it obvious, but Rafe and Emi win.â
âTake that losers" she teased, grinning at their friends. She couldnât stop smiling as Rafe laughed, spinning her in his arms.
"Fuck yeah"

More Foodfight! Material DISCOVERED
That's right, I'm back. Just like I prophesized in my last post, yet another treasure trove of Foodfight! goodness has been uncovered, and this might be one of the strangest to date...that's right, official Foodfight! Cinnamon Sleuth Cereal was sold at Albertsons back in 2007, over five years before the movie finally came out!
Okay, not really, but I had you going for a second, right? So, this IS a proposed packaging design for actual Cinnamon Sleuth cereal, but it never went into production, it never made it to stores and there was certainly never any actual cereal to be eaten. This, among several other designs and a collection of behind the scenes material, was sent in recently by a Foodfight! crewmember, who explained they were mockups created to show off possible tie-in products. I'm not sure why they chose Albertsons for these mockups but it's likely they were in talks with them at the time and wanted to show off designs including their branding. In any case, I just had the Cinnamon Sleuth box printed because I thought it'd look cool next to my collection of Foodfight! merchandise, and I wanted to see if anyone would be convinced this really existed.
I've included all the designs above in case you want to print your own- there are several more including another cereal, brownie packaging and milk cartons. Curiously, the milk cartons have Farmland Dairy logos on them, with Farmland Milk actually appearing in the finished film at several points. I'd say this confirms my theory these mockups were created to show to companies they were already actively working on deals with, but I can't say for certain that was the case.
Equally curious are these character sheets from 2002, seemingly showing off almost every model created during early production. There are so many fascinating layers to this- Sunshine is still a human instead of a catgirl, showcasing a very different model to the one seen in the initial trailer, and Maximilius Moose is still a dog named Panzer Pup, both aspects that were changed once the decision was made to change Dex to a dog. However, it may be that Dex's human design was edited out and replaced after the fact, given Dex's model here appears to be the one from the finished film (you can tell by the weird hands). In any case, it's fascinating to get a closer look at all these characters- while the majority of the models for the main cast were found recently (see my last post for more on this), there are a bunch of side characters here we've only seen brief glimpses of before, including the Pringles man and the scantily-clad Cherry Waifer. The most fascinating to me however are the Red and Yellow M&Ms- I've read through their scene in the movie's script, I've seen multiple versions of the storyboard, even rough layout animation in the workprint, and it's only now I'm FINALLY getting to see their actual character models and how they would've looked in the Foodfight! artstyle. Sure, they more or less look exactly as they did in M&M commercials that aired around the same time, but it's still amazing to actually see these characters modelled and rendered after analyzing so many different iterations of the scene as it went through development.
The crewmember in question also sent a folder containing over a hundred stills which while at first glance appear to be from the finished movie, are actually subtly different in multiple ways- usually lighting, facial expressions, or background textures like the sky or color of a hill. A lot of these are labelled "fix" which makes me speculate if after the movie was completed, the crew went back and tried to touch up the animation to make it look more appealing before release. Is there a slightly better looking version of Foodfight! somewhere out there in the world? Who knows, but really it would've been like trying to polish a turd. The movie was already ruined by then, and I don't think any number small changes would've done much to salvage it. However, that does bring me to my next interesting point...
There are also storyboards dated May 2011, depicting an alternate opening to the movie giving a much more cinematic introduction to the main characters. It's crazy to think they were still working on storyboards so late in production, but there IS actually a reason for this. I unfortunately can't upload the entire sequence due to this site's image limit, but what you might notice are a lot of characters being described as "flying over the audience", "flying into the camera" or knocking things "into the audience", with some of the boards having "(3D)" written in parenthesis next to them. It's my belief that very late into production, Kasanoff wanted the movie to be 3D, made popular by the then-recent Avatar, and this new opening sequence full of flashy 3D effects was drawn up to show off what they could do with the technology. It's not clear if any of this was ever actually animated, but imagine going to see a movie that advertises itself as 3D but only the first minute contains any 3D elements. Of course, Kasanoff requesting this is only speculation on my part, but given how the movie was ruined by the crew having to cater to his whim of directing the whole thing with motion capture (made popular by the then-recent Polar Express) it's no stretch to assume the 3D opening sequence was a similar situation.
There's a ton more that was sent to us as well, so much so that I could never hope to talk about all of it. However, it should be on archive.org at the time of writing this if it isn't already, and you can now access everything Foodfight! related through the official Foodfight! collection on there!
That's right, so much Foodfight! material has been uploaded over the past year that the Internet Archive gave it its own archive, allowing you to find everything in one convenient place (including my scans of the novelization and Deluxe Sound Storybook). It'll also be updated periodically whenever something new is found, so it'll always be the home to all things Foodfight!. Whether you're wanting to take a look at some concept art shown in ROTTEN: Behind The Foodfight, read through an early draft of the script, or check out something I've talked about on my blog, it's all here at your fingertips.
I don't think there's ever really going to be an end to the depth of the Foodfight! rabbithole. I thought I was done a year ago when I finished analyzing the novelization, and look at everything that's been found since then. Every time I think I'm out, this movie pulls me back in. So...in my next post I'll FINALLY show off my collection of Foodfight! merchandise and talk about what this movie means to me, but that doesn't mean it's the end for this blog. Whenever I say I'm done with Foodfight! I end up jinxing it, so if I try to conclude things now in a few months some CD will show up with a bunch of lost footage on it, I'll get mailed concept art of a bunch of characters we've never seen before, or it'll turn out Larry Kasanoff was actually D.B. Cooper the whole time. So as long as there's something new to discuss, as long as there's a Foodfight to be fought, I'll keep updating this blog from now until forever. You better duck when they launch the cream pies!

slipping through my fingers [2] (myg)
title: and the hits just keep coming 1.0
pairing: min yoongi x reader
genre: dilf!yoongi, exes and co-parents au, angst!, fluff, smut
summary: you lean on your friend for support and an escape, but the reality of your situation keeps flashing before you.
warnings: [there's a prologue and part 1 that should be read before this one!] just some insecurity, some sad vibes, you know the drill.
Taehyung fails to dodge the fifth pillow you launch at him. "Let me explain!" Repeatedly begging you to stop, he crashes into your kitchen counter.
A pillow to his leg.
"Wait! Please!" He's dodging for his life.
Another pillow to his chest.
"You're an angel! Pleas-" Headshot!
"Ough! Not the face..." He pauses to soothe his aching nose.
By now, you're out of energy too. But, there's still a lot of anger in your stomach. You're too guilty and too tired to let it out on the wrong person.
You spent over twenty minutes reprimanding him for hiding Yoongi's fiancĂŠe from you.
Finally having a fraction of a minute of peace, your friend sits you down by your dinner table.
He disappears into the kitchen, leaving you to cradle and console your heart by yourself.
You hear a few utensils clashing and see him juggling four things in his hands; your cat mug, his designated frog mug, a bottle of white chocolate liqueur and a carton of what looks like chocolate milk.
Pointing your finger at the tetra pak, you protest, "Excuse you, that's the expensive chocolate milk and itâs for Nao."
He looks at the half-empty carton in his hand and back at you.
"You're telling me Nao drank more than half of this bottle in a day? And you let her?" Taehyung deadpanned.
...
"Yeah." Your eyes wander as you insist poorly.
He ignored you and poured you a glass of the milk.
Sitting across from you, he grew solemn, "_____, I swear I didn't know it was like this." - "But you knew about her?" You asked before he said anything else.
Taehyung couldn't deny it, "Yeah. But I thought she would just be like the others."
Yoongi had others.
All grumpy, you sigh. "The others?"
Momentarily, he froze and exhaled. "Yeah, there have been a few. He was... I don't know. He kept saying he was serious about each of them but nobody ever... stuck around? So, we thought he was lying or something." Taehyung regretted his choice of words.
You want to believe him, but you both know that Yoongi isnât someone who lies like that. Let alone big lies, Yoongi won't even tell little white lies.
Over the years, you naturally assumed he was dating around, but you didn't know. Nothing was confirmed. You never asked and he never told you anything himself.
"Who all knew?"
"Everyone. But nobody even imagined that they'd be getting hitched." He shook his head in disbelief.
âObviously. This is Yoongi youâre talking about,â you pause, âBut didnât you notice anything different with them?â
âIâm telling you, _____, we had no idea.â Taehyung cringes after taking a sip of the sweet liqueur. âI think he wanted to tell you first.â
You wish he never had.
"What are you thinking?"
You dip your head in between your palms, âI feel terrible. Itâs like I know I want to cry but Iâm so emotionally stunted right now, I cannot get it out. Itâs like a stuck yawn.â
Taehyung caresses your arm, "Can I do anything to help?"
You shake your head, "I don't think so, Tae."
"Oh! Do you want to watch 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas?' Maybe that will help you cry." He tilts his head, eyes filled with hope.
At that, you let out a surprised laugh, "Taehyung, no!"
Basking in the little moment of success (by making you laugh), Taehyung internally pops confetti.
But, the moment was just that. A moment. Your happiness faded away as quickly as it came.
So, he pulled his phone out and placed it in front of you.
Taehyungâs hesitant to ask you this but he does it anyway. âDo you want to see her?â
You donât know. (Youâd rather pretend she doesnât exist.)
If it werenât for Nao, youâd have no problem ignoring Yoongiâs girlfriend. Even thinking of the words âYoongiâs girlfriendâ makes you want to end it all.
Itâs no secret that youâre still madly in love with your ex-boyfriend.
This situation felt so ridiculous to you, you couldnât digest it. You couldnât believe this was actually happening to you.
As a young girl, you never thought it was in the books for you to go through this kind of pain. And, you donât have a whole lot to lean on. So, Yoongi has always been it for you. He always told you heâd be there for you no matter what.
Even after your breakup, he was by your side.
When you unexpectedly caught the chicken pox from Nao, he took care of you. Even when Taehyung insisted on helping you instead, Yoongi sent him away.
You shared every birthday with him. Heâd throw you a small party. Every year, it was a different theme. This year was âenchanted garden.â He always ordered you a custom cake from out of town. It made everything special.
He even helped you open your quaint little bakery. Yoongi was the one who helped you finalize your menu. He tasted everything and even got himself sick because of it.
He stood by you when you got sued by your competition, another old-timey cake shop, for stealing their clients and recipes. He acted as your lawyer free of charge.
Now, you wonder if it was all out of convenience or⌠an obligation. Had you read it all wrong? Was he simply being polite because youâre the mother of his daughter? Would he stop doing things for you now? Did he ever do those things for you? Or were they simply for your daughter by extension?
Would he be too focused on his wife now?
Even for Naoâs sake, you never once got the urge to know the woman who did the unthinkable.
As a co-parent, you trusted Yoongi. You knew Yoongi would never let just anyone around Nao. If he wants to introduce his daughter to a woman, you knew it was safe. She could be the next Mother Teresa for all you know.
All this blind trust has been earned by him throughout the years youâve spent with him, youâre not a careless mother.
However, as a woman and Yoongiâs ex-flame, you werenât eager to know the woman who replaced you. You donât want to see or meet her. In your eyes, she was able to compel Yoongi to do something he wouldnât do even after you begged him to. Maybe she didnât even have to try. She was probably just that perfect for him.
This is apart from the fact that he fell in love with another woman after you while youâre still hung up on him.
You donât think you can afford to willingly take a hit to your self-confidence like that.
Nao looks up to you. You know you cannot lose yourself when you have so much relying on you.
Taehyung was kind enough to let you get lost in your thoughts.
âNo.â You finally answer his question.
You did not want to see what she looked like.
Taehyung nodded once, âOkay. Thatâs fine.â
Just when Taehyungâs about to put his phone back into his pocket, it rings.
And on the screen pops this gorgeous woman. She looked like she stepped straight out of an issue of Harparâs Bazaar or even Vogue. You werenât surprised, you smiled and involuntarily snorted. Taehyung did have a type.
He hurriedly tried to pull his phone off the table, knocking your (thankfully, empty) glass of milk in the process.
âYou donât have to hide her from me, Vincent.â You tease him, using his artist alias. âIs she your new muse?â
Taehyung awkwardly laughed, blatantly ignoring your question.
Suddenly, he changes the topic, âOh! Do you have to go into work today?â
Your smile drops a little. âHey. What are you doing here?â
He offered a strained smile, âItâs like I can feel the alcohol in my veins.â
âHeyyy... Whatâs up with the model babe? Why are you deflecting?â This time you pout.
You hear his phone ring once again. But he immediately declines.
âTaehyung⌠Whatâs the matter?â When he refuses to acknowledge you, you grow more concerned.
âYou donât have to stay, you know?â You continue to reassure him.
âItâs not,â he cuts himself off, âThat wasnât my girlfriend.â
Taehyung hopes he doesnât have to face your inevitable question in line.
âWell, who was that theâŚ.â When you trail off mid-response, he knew you had figured out who that woman really was.
The two of you are silent for a moment.
Sullen, you whisper, âThatâs his fiancĂŠe?â
Taehyung wishes he never came over to your place. He didnât want to be the one to make you feel this way.
He nods once. Not that you needed that confirmation.
Quickly moving on to your next thought, you question, âWhy is she calling you?â
Already on it, Taehyung visibly cringes at the messages on his screen when you push yourself forward to peek into his phone. This time, he doesnât try to obstruct your vision.
Hyejin (3)
Sorry! I forgot you were at _____âs. Itâs nothing important, I just had a question about Nao-chan. Does she like lemon cake? How is _____ doing btw?
Your mouth dropped open.
You donât even acknowledge the fact that sheâs speaking about you so personally; as if you were a friend or even an acquaintance.
You ignore the fact that sheâs fucking stunning, owning the most symmetrical, aesthetically pleasing face youâve ever seen on a grown woman.
You donât even dwell about how you do not stand a chance against this woman.
The only thing you see is her nickname for your daughter. You squeak, âShe calls her Nao-chan!â Â
Thatâs YOUR name for YOUR babygirl.
âAngelâŚâ Taehyung begins but has no idea what he could possibly say to comfort you.
Pull yourself together. You mentally discipline yourself. It takes a minute for you to get there.
Instead of dealing with whatever you just felt, you push it away in an instant and beam at your friend.
âWhatever. Letâs get cheesy naan and shrimp skewers!â
Of course, your faux smile didnât fool Taehyung, but he went with it anyway.
