7.2 Jungkook, Be Mine!

10 years later,

Seokjin take a deep breath, looking around the old house he left 10 years ago. It was the house he used to lived with his grandfather, until he was sent to study abroad for ruining his own school life for chasing the man that never spare a look at him.

He smiles, shaking his head at his stubbornness. If only he knew when to stop, he wouldn't have to leave.

Bzzztt!

The new edition Apple watch series XXI he bought a few days ago before coming back to Korea vibrates for an incoming call. He glance at the watch and touch the earbud in his ear, smiling.

"Ne, halabeoji.."

"Where are you, Seokjin-ah?"

"Guess where I am?"

"Don't tell me you are going to our old house. You brat didn't even come seeing me!"

"Haha.. I have something to do here.. I'll go back to you when I'm done here.."

"Aigh.. Palli!"

"Ne.."

"Oh oh! Don't forget to buy flowers. We're going to visit your parents. I don't know what happen to them, I am too old to go visit them."

"Um. Should I buy roses?"

"Foolish! Who gives roses to the death?"

"Haha.. Halabeoji, you are still so grumpy.."

"It's only because of you!"

"Alright, I'm gonna go.. I'll back before night.."

"Hm. Take care, Seokjin-ah."

"Ne.. Don't worry about me, you should take care of yourself first, Halabeoji.."

"I know, I know. Go, come back faster!"

The call ended, Seokjin walking into the entrance, pushing the old wooden gate.

...

Subway Station, Seoul.

'Love at the first sight is such a cliche. But, fuck. Why am I blushing?! And why is that guy looking so smoking hot?! Damn it, he didn't even look anywhere else beside his phone and his side profile already making my heart goes like crazy. But, who did he chatting with, smiling like that?' Jungkook's monologue, can't get his eyes off of a man standing a few steps away from him.

He's been staring at the man for a while now, but not even once the guy spare a glance at him, busy playing with his phone.

Jungkook bite his lips, gripping the bag straps, hoping for the man to look his way.

"Please stand away from the platform. The train is approaching." the computer voice announcing the train arrival.

The man keep his phone into his brown jacket, brushing his hands together and blow the white smoke of carbon dioxide out of his lungs.

He then turn around. At the moment, their eyes finally meet. Jungkook flinched, looking away in surprised.

"The door will be lock. Please stand away from the door."

"Ah! Wait!"

Jungkook was too immersed in his own thoughts, he didn't realised everyone's already got into the train, leaving him alone, rushing to enter.

Suddenly a hand grab his wrist, pulling him inside the train right before the door close. His face was buried into the person's broad chest because of the impact.

"I'm sorry!" he retreats, looking down, bowing 90 degree.

"It's.. Fine." the person cough, clearing his throat.

Jungkook looking up. It's the guy! The one he's been staring that almost causing him to missed his train!

"Are you okay? Your face so red.." asked the man.

"Huh? Yes! Ah, no! I mean, yes! I— I'm fine!" he look away, avoiding the guy's concern eyes.

"En.. Alright.."

The man didn't seem bothered about him after that. He took out his phone and starts playing with it, again.

Jungkook moves away creating distance between them but the man suddenly grab his arm, pull him closer.

"—!"

"Be careful! You don't want to hit a pregnant lady.." he said, bobbing his head showing what's behind Jungkook.

"Aaa.. I.. I'm sorry.." Jungkook bow to the lady, who was sitting on the chair behind him.

"It's fine.. And, thank you.." she nods, smiling at both Jungkook and the guy.

...

Have you ever had a crush on a stranger?

I did. I still did, until now. It's been a few years already. I don't have any information about the person. The only thing I know is his face. I hope think I can recognise him if I ever meet him again..
