His family is easy to get along with, his oldest brother will get married soon, and they are teasing him for not having a girlfriend since his last break up. Yes, last break up. He never mentioned that to me.
“Do you have a boyfriend, Chaewon?” his father asks, and I awkwardly smile as my mouth is full.
“None.” I shortly respond slowly swallowing the food.
“Jimin, are you open to a new relationship?” his brother asks, and they laugh.
“No.” Jimin shortly response and they all shut their mouths.
I look at him and he winks at me. Maybe he did that to shut their mouths? I don't know, maybe.
After lunch, I thank everyone especially his mom who cooked a delicious meal for us today. He told me to meet him at the back of the house, and so I did. I saw him standing there so perfectly, even though he is doing nothing.
“Hi.” I said, and he turns around handing me a flower. It's a garden flower. But I appreciate it.
“Want to have some swim later?” he asks, and I look at him wanting some hint.
“Swim? I can't swim.” I said and he laughs. Yes, he laughs throwing his head back like a little kid.
“Don't worry, I'll teach you.” he said, and I shake my head in disagreement.
“No. How could I trust you then?” I said and he strides a step towards me.
We are just an inch apart still smelling his perfume. I reckon what perfume is he wearing?
He holds my hand gently and rubs my knuckles.
“Just trust me.”

“Jimin it's cold. The water is cold.” I said rubbing my palms on my arms.
He's already in the water, and I'm there at the shore watching him as he enjoys the water. I frown as I sit down on the beach cloth watching him enjoying the waters.
My heartbeat stops when Jimin disappears. I quickly get up on my feet, even though the water is ice-cold I run through it and didn't get any glimpse of him.
“Jimin!” I outcry looking around. “Jimin! Please don't joke around!”
Tears began to stream from my eyes when suddenly someone grabs me from behind. I scream as loud as I can, and I squirm a lot.
“Let me go!” I shriek and the person who grabbed me put me down.
I look back and found Jimin shirtless. I quickly turn around feeling my whole face is turning red.
“Why did you do that?!” I exclaim still not looking at him.
“I lost my shirt and can't find it. Let's just enjoy the water.” he said grabbing my hand.
Even though the water is ice-cold, I splash onto it as Jimin assist me through the waters. I started to enjoy this moment with him, this is the happiest thing that happened to me.
You see, a stranger just appeared nowhere then making me comfortable with him? It's strange, but I take this as a part of moving on. Jimin is very a comfortable person to get along with.
We both laid down on the beach cloth as we both watch the moon wave goodbye revealing the sun.
“I hope I make you happy throughout your summer vacation.” he said pulling me close to him.
“Jimin, why are you like this?”
A question just came out from my mouth, I don't know. I started to feel this strange feeling that it shouldn't be here.
“Like what?” he asks, and I look at him.
“Like this. Having plans at 3 AM.” I said fiddling my fingers on my shirt.
“Because I like you.”
