Wonwoo's POV:

Can you be my girlfriend?

Crap. Like a broken record, that line keeps repeating on my head hundred times already.

Why did I say what's on my mind? I'm a certified dumb. All I need is a trophy and a medal and it would complete me. Great.

I closed my eyes as I suffered inside. I inhaled a large amount of air, expecting myself to calm down. It wasn't helpful though.

With all myself, I was ready to face embarrassment, but what she said next woke me up.

"Yes."

What? Is this true?

I glanced at her. I was surprised to see her smiling.

"W-wait? You said yes?" To my excitement, I immediately grabbed her hands. It was cold but I hope I can warm it for her.

"Yes."

"So, we're official. I'm now your boyfriend right?" I still can't process anything. I got it, but it was too good to be true.

"Yes Jeon Wonwoo. I'm yours, you're mine." She was glowing with joy. I can feel how my heart beat so fast. It became wild again.

I won her.

I shouted in victory. "Aaaaaah!" The only feeling that I feel was pure happiness.

"Wonwoo, they're already sleeping." She giggled as she put out her palm on my lips, shutting me off. I didn't mind her but I just smiled.

Without any words, I hugged her. Reminiscing the past, I poured out all my love for her in that hug. It feels so good having her again.

"Wonwoo I love you, so much." She muttered as I felt a single tear on my shirt.

"I love you too, more than anything." I cupped her cheeks and kissed her forehead. She also did the same, but the difference is that it was on my cheeks. She can't reach me. Nonetheless I found it cute.

"Good morning."

"Wonwoo!" She hit my arms. It was too long since I'm resting my arms by her window. I'm just staring at her for about an hour when she turned her back and jumped out of nowhere.

I smiled looking at her face once again. Every time I lay my eyes on her, it will never leave immediately. It feels like everything around me don't exist except for her.

I was distracted when she suddenly flicked my forehead.

"Stop staring like that."

"As If I will." Everytime I tease her, she will become flustered. Her cheeks will turn into pink and her whole body will turn against me. That's why I always do it.

As she finished preparing her things, she went outside her cottage and immediately held my hand, intertwining her fingers on mine.

"So where are we going this time? What are we going to do today?" I wanted to carry her bag but she insisted because it was only light.

"We're going to teach the kids today. Also, give them enough school supplies for the next year."

"Ooh, I'm in." She giggled excitedly.

"Am I seeing things right?" Mingyu showed himself in front of us, looking at our intertwined hands.

"That's so fast. You guys are already together?" Meanwhile, Tzuyu didn't gave any expressions nor was shocked.

"Yes, do you have a problem?" She gave me her coldest glare before rolling her eyes again. She always do that.

Waiting for Jun and Sana, we rested for a while in a bench.

"Come here."

Mingyu's POV:

I hurriedly grabbed Wonwoo's hand and took him far from the girls.

"What's your problem?" He harshly took his hand away from me.

"You're really together now? I mean, your relationship is not fake anymore? You're not pretending?" I wanted my questions to be crystal clear so he would respond the truth.

"Yes. Clear as an ice, we're together for real." As expected, he can read my mind.

"Did you court her?"

"Dude, I already courted her years ago. Courting her again will take too long. Plus, she's the first to say yes." More like bragging, he said his lines proudly.

Well, I'm getting envy.

"Give me some tips. I want to make Tzuyu say yes too." He then laughed non-stop, leaving me confused.

Love can really change a person. Look at him, he's going crazy.

"Mingyu it takes time. Don't force things too much." He patted my shoulder and left me. Seriously, he gave me zero tips on how to court her sister.

How can I do this?

"Kim Mingyu get back here!" Hearing her voice, I abruptly came back to my senses and ran back to her.

"What are you doing there alone? We have to go now." My gaze landed on her irritated face.

Chou Tzuyu, you're really moody. Still, I like you.

"Come on!" She turned her back against me and was about to walk away when she said something.

"Hand?" I didn't noticed that her hand is already in front of me, waiting for it to be accepted.

"Ppalli!" Her baby slash complaining behavior makes me smile unconsciously.

"Okay, here you go." I hold her hand and her mood changed into a happy one.

We walked for minutes with Jun and Sana leading our way. We arrived at our destination and there are many stacks of boxes that consists of many school supplies.

"Kamsahamnida!" That word keep repeating from every single kid that I gave supplies with. It urges me to give them more until I finish all of it.

I have a chance to take a small break so I decided to get my camera and create memories to bring back home.

*Click*

I started taking pictures to the kids. I love how their mouth are raised up to their ears. They were really happy about small things.

Swiftly, I turned around, finding anything that my camera can capture.

At that moment, I found it.

*Click*

Chou Tzuyu, I found you.

I smiled at how she's teaching a kid on how to read. Her dimples gently popped on her cheeks, enough to make my heart flutter.

Any small actions from her makes my heart go wild. Literally.

"Mingyu get back here!" She looked at the camera with sharp stares.

Yes, including that.
