When I woke up murmurs from outside is all I hear. Eon Jin is no longer beside me.

Before I got out from Taehyung's room, I tie up my hair into a bun, and check myself on the mirror. I look at my eyes if ever I have something on it and I check the sides of my mouth too.

I need to go to the comfort room but then the problem is that Tae's room doesn't have a connected toilet.

As I got out from his room, the television's volume was full and his siblings were preparing to school. His parents were in the living room, watching TV.

"Jennie, you're awake!" His mom suddenly said, when his dad heard my name, he turn off the TV and smile shyly at me.

"Good morning Auntie, Uncle." I greeted while covering my mouth. I need to gargle for goodness sake!!!

I hurriedly went inside the comfort room. I was busy washing my face and gargling water when I hear soft voices from outside. Like they're whispering.

"It would be a better idea if you'll stay here in Daegu for a while Taehyung."

"And don't let her use her phone or any social media accounts. She need to divert her attention to something else."

When I got out from the toilet, all of them look at me with pity in their eyes. What's wring with them?!

They are freaking me out!

"Is there a problem?" I asked the three of them.

I didnt get a chance to say goodbye to his siblings because of the school bus.

"We cannot go back to Seoul as of now. My car isn't starting. And we cannot just take the bus yo Seoul it would be dangerous for us." Tae said.

"Well we can call our manager or our member to come and pick us up." I suggested.

"NO!" Taehyung and his parents shouted.

I was shocked so I held my chest, now hammering so fast!

Taehyung walk towards me and got both of my hands. "I'm sorry for shouting. Umm...let's just stay okay?"

I furrowed my eyebrows at him, suspecting that something is really going on.

"Jennie, I have your phone. Let me just keep this for the mean time okay?" Taehyung's mom said. I was about to disagree when his dad butted in.

"I will also get your phone son, so you'll get to spend time with Jennie. Without the eyes of the media." Taehyung gave his phone to his dad. What're they planning actually?

"For now, we will just go to the market and buy some supplies."

"We?" His dad pointed himself, surprised by what auntie said. Auntie nod her head. "Yeah right! We will have an early date!" Auntie slap uncle's shoulder because of his joke. "I mean marketing."

Taehyung shook his head in disbelief while watching his parents. He was like he's so done with them. I laugh at his two lovey-dovey parents.

AS soon as his parents went out to buy supplies I was left with Taehyung.

He went inside his parents room to get something. When he came back he was holding a pair of clothes. A plain white shirt and a Fila pants. I raise my right brow at him, and he gets the thought.

"Wear it. We'll stroll around. Get some fresh air to think properly."

"Why would I think properly? Did I do something wrong?"

"No. Someone just did. And you need to fix it again." I didnt get what he said because instead of explaining further he push me inside the toilet again.

I doll myself up. I even took a quick shower so the dirt will come off my body. I didn't took long to finish, I put on the clothes that Taehyung gave me. Since the shirt is too long for me, I tucked it inside the pants. The pants is also too long for me and it reached my feet. It covers my whole feet.

I look like a kid!

"Aww, you look so cute." I look at Taehyung reflection at the mirror when he open the door after he knocks.

"Don't you have other pants? This is too long for me!" I sound like a grumpy kid!

"That's fine Jennie. It would be hard for us if people recognize you. I'll wear something like what you are wearing right now." Then he got out from the toilet leaving the door open.

I waited for him in the living room, I put on his cap and his mask. As soon as I heard his footsteps getting near, I stood up and fix my coat. That's when I realized how we really matched!

We look like a couple! He lend his hand for me to hold on.

"What?" I act like I don't know what he's doing. He grab my hand and intertwine it with his.

His freehand tucked my hair behind my ear. "I will protect you no matter what." He whispered. His statement has a two meanings but I didn't dig more.

"I'll protect you too."

"No need Jennie. It's my duty. And I will not listen to anybody else but you. Only you." He kiss my hand that was intertwined with his.

Before we went out he prepared his dog's food and water. He wore his shoes and he also put my shoes.

I love this free time with him. Since it's still so early, we decided to eat in a sidewalk restaurant. The owner seemed to know Taehyung because she gave us the isolated area that no one can see us.

He ordered for me. Just a black bean noodle and a kimchi stew. For drinks he ordered two glasses of water and two glasses of cola.

When our order arrived, we eat without words coming out from our mouths.

"Wow!" I exclaimed while holding my stomach.

He smile at me. "You're that full?"

I nod at him. "Let's rest for a moment. I can't stand." I said doing circles to my tummy.

And that's what we do.

AFTER minutes of sitting and just doing nothing, he finally speak.

"What they are doing is another media play right?"

"Huh?" I asked. What is he talking about?

"You're not seeing someone while I am here right?"

"Of course! How can I date someone when the person I wanna date is here in Daegu!" I made my voice louder.

"That's more like it." He laugh.

"What's with media play anyway? Do you have an issue?" His mouth closed when I ask. "You have an issue? What issue? Are you dating?"

"Yes I am. With you." I was shut off with his answer.

"Tsk."

"Do you like Jiyong sunbae?"

"Yes. Who wouldn't like him? I mean he is an ideal guy to every girls out there!"

"But if I'll give you a privilege to date him, will you do it?"

"Nope. Because I'll choose you now. Only you."

When I said it, I saw how his eyes glints and how he sigh in relieved. I din't know what's bothering him but as much as possible I don't want to lose him anymore. Not now, not tomorrow, not forever.
