The Most Beautiful Thing

Taehyung stretched his arms and legs, letting out a groan. His eyes remained close as he stayed on his bed a little more.

He slowly sat up before opening his eyelids. Taehyung subconsciously smiled as he remembers what Jungkook did for his birthday even if it was just a small thing.

Taehyung went inside his bathroom and got ready, doing all his daily routines.

-

"Okay, stop fucking playing with the balloons! You already popped like three of it." Jinsoon slapped Nakyum's arm.

"Sorry, it looked really cute, I couldn't help it." Nakyum pouted and forced himself not to play with the said balloon.

"So we just like uhm... Ring their doorbell and them scream 'surprise!' and then greet him and them give him our hand made letters and tell him why he's the best human ever?" Yoongi asked.

"Dude, I already told you for like three times already," Jungkook whined.

"Okay, fuck you," Yoongi mumbled. A little jealous of Taehyung but he understood why Jungkook was so desperate to do this.

-

Taehyung sat in front of his mom who is grinning widely at him. "How're the pancakes?" She asked.

"This is heavenly. Thank you so much, Ma." Taehyung gave her a genuine smile. He chewed on the food his mom cooked especially for him.

"I may not say this often but I love and appreciate you, Ma. You've done so much for me but I still chose to push you away. I'm sorry for being an awful son to you... I just don't know how to express my feelings properly..." He sighed, eyes slightly getting teary.

Taeyeon giggled, eyes sparkling with tears threatening to fall any second, "What are you talking about, love? You're the best son any mother could ask for." She said, "I knew how much you're trying, and that's what matters the most." She held stood up and went to him before engulfing him into a tight and warm hug.

Taehyung's eyes sparkled with stranded tears, "I wish I treated you a little better, Ma. I'm sorry if I don't get to have a job, family, and give you grandkids... I didn't expect my life to end in such a short period, and—"

"Ssh, Taebear. Let's not talk about that right now, okay? You should enjoy your day." She pecked Taehyung's forehead with a soft smile.

Taehyung munched on his food. Savouring every bite of the pancakes his mother made especially for him.

Taeyeon and Taehyung stopped eating when they heard a knock on the door.

"I got it, Ma." Taehyung stood up and went to the door. He opened the door slowly before peeking out his head to see who's outside.

"Surprise!" They said in unison. Jungkook made sure to tell them not to scream their hearts out so Taehyung won't get startled.

"What—" Taehyung breathed out in disbelief. He opened the door wider and covered his mouth.

"Happy birthday!" They said once again.

Taehyung bit his lips and covered his face. Tears slowly coming out of his eyes as his heart pounded with shock and joy. He did not expect any of this, at all.

Jungkook immediately went to embrace the crying male and rubbed his back, "Are you okay?" He asked.

Taehyung nodded, unable to say anything at the moment.

So this is what it feels like to be surprised. To finally get your birthday greets after years of not receiving any of it.

This is what it feels to be noticed.

"It's... I... Th-thank you." He wiped his tears and couldn't help himself to engulf the raven head into a hug.

"We want to apologise for always forgetting your birthday, Taehyung. We should have approached you because it was obvious that you're too scared to make the first move on us but we acted like we didn't care..." Jinsoo said.

One by one, they said their sorry's, thank you's, and wishes to the birthday boy.

It may not be a fancy or extravagant surprise and party for some of you but for Taehyung, it meant the world for him. He felt euphoric and loved and cared for, he couldn't ask for more.

"It was Jungkook's idea by the way," Yuki said and nudged the boy with a cheeky smile.

"Wait, really?" Taehyung asked, eyes wide.

"Yep, this was sudden that's why we weren't prepared." Yuki laughed.

Tarhyung smiled and glanced at Jungkook who was talking to his mother who looked as happy as ever.

Thank you, Kookie.
