YOONGI'S POV
====================
3rd September 2019

I had no idea. Really I didn't. You hide it so well.

I guess now I know why you wear your headphones.

Today, I saw you for the third time.

You were back wearing the rainbow jumper that I had seen you in on the first day. I liked that one.

I had deliberately reserved the space next to me today by putting my bag on it. I hoped you would notice.

When the doors opened and I saw your face, I moved the bag and saw you smile out of the corner of my eye.

I love your smile.

The train doors closed just as you took the seat next to me and it began to move.

I noticed you reaching into your bag for something and I saw you pull out a small, blue notebook.

By the neatness of the pages and front cover, I guessed it was new, possibly bought that morning.

You opened it up and began to scribble with your biro pen:

"My name is Hoseok. Jung Hoseok. What is yours?"

You smiled at me, offering the pen.

I took it from you, my fingers brushing yours just for a moment, but in that moment it felt like electricity had been fired up my arm.

Slowly and neatly, I wrote down what you wanted to know.

"My name is Min Yoongi. It's nice to meet you properly."

You smiled at me again, making my heart go wild in my chest.

I returned the pen and notebook carefully.

"Have you been deaf for long?" You wrote.

"All my life~~~" I wrote back, pen slipping as the train bounced on the tracks.

"How long have you had hype- sorry I don't know how to spell it!" I wrote, letting out a soft laugh as I remembered how bad I was at spelling.

You laughed then. I couldn't hear it, but your face lit up with a heart shaped smile and I could feel the soft vibrations as I passed back the book.

You circled my previous answer - all my life.

It must be hard for you. Not being able to listen.

I am used to silence - it is the theme tune that has stayed with me since I was born, commentating my every move, but I can't imagine having to deliberately muffle the world.

You looked at me sadly.

I didn't like it.

I won't let you be sad, Hoseok.

I will come on this train every day if it means I can make you smile.

Happiness looks good on you.
