Too much of something eventually makes you habitual of it, be it within or outside your comfort zone. Time lags nowhere behind in enhancing your endurance and capability to face more. There comes a stage when you become so accustomed to everything that you eventually grow numb until one day a slight change in intensity disrupts your numbness. Whether temporal or eternal, nothing ever stays the same, not even the numbness. This is precisely how Taehyung began to believe. At the beginning of his adulthood, he was curious, risky, and living with a mind full of fantasy. As he began to dig holes into a world of imagination, learning new things with every turn of page of a romantic novel, learning how things work and how writers had depicted lives in their stories. The magic described in those novels – seeing someone, the first touch, and exploring every inch of their skin – unveiled a beauty, an elegance, and grace derived from the enchantment when two passionate souls collide, igniting a spark. In the midst of this discovery, he found Jungkook. Every word from those novels came to life through Jungkook, turning fiction into reality. It all appeared phenomenal and surreal, transcending conventional boundaries. Yet, a fine line emerged between reality and fantasy. As he uncovered this truth, he realised that both he and the artist he had fallen for were men. Despite societal perceptions of men as powerful and dominating, he felt vulnerable in the presence of his lover. He yearned to escape the confines of a masculine shell, acknowledging his inner desires for femininity. Above all, he was human, with a heart and mind brimming with emotions. Every nerve and impulse in his body responded authentically, even as he touched another man, navigating the complexities of his own identity. With Jungkook, he lived the beauty that those books and fantasies had merely hinted at. It all commenced with Jungkook – everything. Taehyung was drawn to him through the artist's unique painting style, slowly immersing himself in the profound depths of love. A powerful connection emerged, an attraction propelled by the irresistible allure of the artist's paintings and his aura. Taehyung found himself entangled, wholly captured and mesmerised by Jungkook. Taehyung never paid much attention to his preferences until he encountered Jungkook. Adding to that, they were both young and naive when given the opportunity to be together. They shared a mutual desire to fall in love, and indeed, they did. However, this evolved into an old memory, confined to a box and cast aside into a corner, seemingly forgotten. Yet, they couldn't truly let go. All those moments were ornamented and replayed like scenes from a movie reel, with a tendency to unexpectedly resurface right before their eyes. Everything began to echo when Taehyung found himself facing the expansive walls of a gallery, his eyes captivated by the enchanting creations that had transformed him.
