It's just four o'clock in the morning but here we are, walking all the way to the market. I have a big basket of goods hanging on my back while Wheein was holding a basket with alive chickens on it.

"We didn't have some breakfast. Are you hungry?"

Wheein broke the silence as i yawn because of the drowsiness. I just shake my head and jump a little bit so i can carry the basket more comfortably.

"Let's walk faster, shall we? We can do this!"

I hyped up and bring a high-five, gladly she accepts it. We smile at each other and we fasten our pace.

"Are we there yet?"

I ask Wheein as i look at my wrist watch. 5:34 A.M. We've walked that long?! No doubt my feet hurts.

"Well, not yet but we're getting nearer."

My mood heightened up and walk past to her. I skipped as i hop shallowly and i can hear her humming some songs.

"Just asking, are you singing in any ways?"

I ask Wheein as i hear a honey-like melody escapes her mouth. I can see her bowing her head down and smiling like a fool. She looks...weird.

"Not that good..but i sing."

I look at her excitedly and cling my arms into her. She giggles at my actions and tightens her grip unto the basket of chickens.

"Not good? Oh for the good sake Wheein, i know you're the best!"

I don't know but i suddenly blurted out those words. But i'm not regretting because i know that i'm right. And also one thing for the first time, i witness her blushing and being embarassed infront of me.

"Ooohhh..Wheein is embarassed!"

I poked her arms twice and keep teasing her while she's laughing out loud. I can notice that her ears are getting red.

"Stop teasing me, Taehyung!"

She shouted at me while suprassing her laughs. I end up laughing with her while still poking her arms.

"Stop poking me for goodness sake, Taehyung."

She sway her arm away from me and just glare at me. I give her my smile and we both continue to walk.

"Now that i know you can sing, can you please sing for me?"

I ask with both my hands clasped together. 

I can hear her defeated sigh and that's when i know i won!

"Fine, but please be quiet after this."

She held the basket so tight and i look at her as she look up while her eyes are closed. She looks ethereal.

"You are the sunshine of my life.
That's why I'll always be around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you'll stay in my heart.."

My heart stop for a while after hearing her voice. I can't drag my feet around and all i can do is stare at awe.

"I feel like this is the beginning.
Though I've loved you for a million years,
And if I thought our love was ending,
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears.."

Her voice makes me feel some butterflies on my stomach. I look away as she caught me staring at her. I awkwardly cough and hold on the straps of the big basket on my back.

"Y-you're so good.."

I faintly complement her but i think she heard that because she giggles and hit my arm.

"Am i good? Well, i just heared that song whenever i walk around the market."

I just nod at what she's saying while my heart is still beating fast while i'm looking at her. What the hell is happening to me?

"I really can't believe you, Taehyung. Since i stopped singing, you also stop talking! What happened?"

She touch my cheeks lightly and i feel the electrifying feels down through my spine. Okay, this is not normal..

"A-ahh, haha! Nothing's wrong, Wheein! It's just uhm..i-i really love your voice! Y-yeah.."

I look away after saying that and i can feel my ears heating up. Earlier, i feel so cold since it's really early but why do i feel so hot all of sudden?

"Stop flattering me. I'm not that good, i know."

I hear her low voice and in a split of second, i glare at her that made her surprised.

"Not good? Bloody hell, Wheein! You're the best! Of all the people that i've heard, you're the most unique and best-"

"Of course, you can say that because i'm the first one whom you've heard since you woke up."

I just sigh and hold her hand. My heart suddenly reacts by beating so fast but i didn't mind it. All i am thinking about is making Wheein's confidence rise up.

"Look, you may not be the best voice in this world but you're the best that i've heard! So stop denying it Wheein, you know how good you are. So stop dragging yourself down and start having confidence. Alright?"

I can feel that she tighten her grip into my hand and she looks down as i say those words. She's so precious.

"I haven't hear that for a while.. Thank you for that wake up call."

She look at me with something in her eyes and i couldn't adore her more! The horses on my chest still didn't stop running as it still running so fast.

"No problem, Whee-"

"We're here!"
