Sorry, I Lied~ Novel PDF Free Download

TAEHYUNG

I did not anticipate my eighteenth birthday like others did. I was not looking forward to growing up like my friends were~

There was only one reason for this, and it spoiled my entire outlook on life. I was not looking forward to Jeon Jungkook~

Lisa, his sister and my closest friend, had told me countless times~

Lisa

He had a crush on you, Taehyung, I swear!~

Taehyung

**Roll eyes**

All I could do was roll my eyes and hope it wasn't true. I didn't want to fall in love, or at least I didn't plan on it~

I was going to graduate high school, become a nurse, and work. Even though I didn't want to be a nurse~

I didn't want to be anything else; I felt like I had no choice. Eighteen was approaching quickly, and that was the age my parents had told me I could date-~

Not that I wanted to any earlier. Boys in my friend groups were not my type, and I was grateful that I didn't have to be involved with anyone and ~

Experience any heartbreak like my friends did. lisa was the one who was counting down the days to my birthday, because she was set on shipping Jungkook and I.~

My birthday was in early December, and fell on a Sunday that year. Church was going to be an obstacle, because I was never one for attention~

Our families always sat next to each other in the service. lisa was a good enough talker that she could keep Jungkook away for the time being~

But I knew that as soon as I went to get myself coffee, finish a conversation with another friend, or even end up standing next to him, he would ask me out.~

It happened as service let out. People lined the aisles and slowly leaked out into the place, my family was stuck in our pew until the line fused out~

I Stood out of the way to wait, lisa going to talk to someone she knew. Our parents were talking amongst themselves~

Suddenly I heard steps approaching and I turned to see who it was, although I already knew~

Jungkook stood there, looking nervous. I put on my best half-smile and nodded, as if he was just going to pass, but he began to talk to me~

First wishing me happy birthday and then asking me questions about activities and such. I painfully answered, waiting for the moment of truth~

It almost didn't happen; his mom told him they were leaving soon. Since he lived in his own apartment~

It wasn't a big deal, but both of us knew that it meant I would be leaving now too~

TAEHYUNG

It wasn't a big deal, but both of us knew that it meant I would be leaving now too~

Jungkook

Taehyung-

he blurted, while I made an effort exit the pew. I stopped, raising my eyebrows~

Jungkook

I was wondering if you'd like to go out with me sometime.

Jungkook

Since you're eighteen now and everything. Your dad told me he was fine with it.

He even asked my dad? He was more dedicated that I thought. I was fully prepared to give him a sympathetic no~

To shake my head with a sad smile and decline; to tell him, with a little laugh, that there were other people out there for him~

But instead I felt my face heat up. I heard myself say ~

Taehyung

Oh... sure, I guess so~

And I let him have my phone number. I quickly escaped the pew, gluing myself to my mother's side ~

Until we were sitting quietly in the car. Then I surprised myself by saying, quietly~

Taehyung

Jungkook asked me out~

My mom grinned to herself, scrolling on her phone~

Min young

Oh? What did you say? You've never been very romantic, honey~

Taehyung

I said yes~

I thought I heard my dad chuckle. I wrinkled my nose as my mom calmly said ~

Min young

Well, that's great. I think it'll be good for you~

I doubted it, but I sighed and said nothing. When we got home, I holed myself in my room and watched as a few flakes of snow fell gently to the ground~

I groaned- it was a bad omen. I hated snow! Suddenly my phone buzzed. I glanced at it, saw the unknown phone number, and it turned out to be Jungkook ~

Jungkook

Hi taehyung, this is Jungkook. How does Saturday night sound? I can pick you up at six~ 💬

Taehyung

Sounds great~ 💬

I responded, saving his contact and then slamming the phone down on my bedspread. I let my head fall into my hands and pouted for a minute~

When I came to my senses, I set to thinking. I didn't want to date or get married, so why couldn't this be a way to success?~

Nursing would pay the bills, but Jungkook was just finishing at a trade school. He was getting a degree in HVAC~

Meaning he'd stack up on money making repairs. Why not date him, see where it went, and since I'd deemed myself incapable of loving anyone romantically~

Maybe pave a little road to prosperity? Prosperity without love... it didn't sound too great. But Jungkook liked me-~

He asked me out, for God's sake. If he was happy, then it would be enough. Right?~

I went into the kitchen,I pulled out a sleeve of crackers and sliced some cheese for myself~

Then settled on the couch to watch a hallmark Christmas movie. I didn't know where my parents were~

But I didn't really want them to see me sucking up to a romance flick after agreeing to go out on a date, something I swore I wouldn't do for years~

Mom caught me though, giving me a satisfied wink and bustling around the kitchen to make hot coffee~

Min young

You should have lisa over~

Taehyung

I don't think I can face her after what I did today~

I snorted.

Taehyung

And anyway, the snow's really coming down~

Taehyung

The roads might be bad by the time she needs to leave~

TO BE CONTINUE

TAEHYUNG

Taehyung

The roads might be bad by the time she needs to leave~

My mom shrugged and completely ignored my comment about the snow, saying~

Min young

I don't see why it's so bad. Jungkook's a good guy. I bet you could be happy in a relationship with him~

Taehyung

Mom!

I groaned, hiding my face in my blanket~

Min young

What? You're the one that said yes~

She noted, pouring coffee into a mug~

Taehyung

I know, and I wish I hadn't~

Min young

Go on a few dates and see how you feel. It won't be too bad~

Mom left the kitchen looking happy, and went back into her room with my dad I glanced down at my phone as it buzzed once, then twice~

I abandoned the TV as the movie showed a corny couple flirting, and checked my texts one was from lisa~

Lisa

I heard the good news! When's the wedding?~💬

Taehyung

In your dreams~💬

I replied to her~

Lisa

At least tell me when the baby's coming? ~ 💬

She added. It took all my strength not to reply with something derogatory. I think I bit my fist hard enough so that I didn't call her and scream at her~

Instead I turned my attention to the next text. It was from Jungkook~

Jungkook

Great, thanks. If lisa teases you I'm sorry~💬

Taehyung

Don't worry, I'm used to it~💬

I Answered, immediately abandoning my hope of being a dry texter with him~

I looked back at the television just as the couple shared a passionate kiss~

Great, even television was trying to influence me. I rolled my eyes and switched off the screen~

TO BE CONTINUE

Sorry, I Lied~

Birthday

Ask me out
