Don't Give Up On Me - Andy Grammer

The bus makes a stop by a market place in a small town before reaching Gwangju, filled with many people and food everywhere for Jimin to buy and try out. The sun is out today, glowing a nice warmth to Jimin's skin as he piles out of the bus and to the area filled with people and historical architecture.

Never has Jimin seen so many fruits, vegetables, clothes or jewelry in one open space alone before, along with such a lively environment filled with people. Everyone seems to be happy as they waltz around the stands, talking amongst themselves as they point out to whatever ignites the light behind their eyes with music of musicians strumming the air here and there.

Jimin smiles.

This feels so.... Natural.

So.... Normal.

Is this what being outside feel like?

This.... Freedom?

This is exactly what Jimin has been craving for after so many years. To be able to walk down along this street with stands on either side of him, offering him any food or clothes, even jewelry that are definitely eye catching. Jimin politely rejected it, didn't reject the food though, and was on his way to look around with a soft smile on his face that nearly blinded anyone looking in his direction.

And one person specifically fell in love with it.

"Hey you! This will look very attractive on you!"

Jimin turns his head to the woman's voice, smiling to the way she has a necklace held out to him from behind her wooden stand; decorated with this gypsy vibe of purple and gold colors with precious jewelry everywhere to catch Jimin's eyes.

In curiosity Jimin approaches the lady, taking in how beautiful the ruby gem glows under the light of the sun from the necklace.

It's so pretty.

"This would look very nice on you!" She edges on with her contagious smile, raising it up with an eye squinted and head tilted to the side, "The perfect jewelry for you!"

Jimin giggles nervously and shakes his head, "I don't want anything too..... Captivating."

The lady with the messy bun on her head and a few strands of grey instantly puts the necklace down and roams through her table full of other necklaces, rings and bracelets before gasping joyfully to a silver ring, appearing like ropes to form a heart inside an infinity sign.

The heart being rose gold.

Such a simple yet cute ring.

"This is it..... This would look so perfect on your fingers," She squeals but then suddenly frowns, "By any chance, do you have a partner?"

Jimin raised his eyebrows by the sudden question, gulping thickly with a shake of his head in embarrassment, "Uh no, I don't."

"Ah such a shame," She mutters and picks at the other ring that was beside it, identical to the other but that one has a golden heart instead, "This is a couple's ring..... I mean you can still get it alone-"

"He'll take it."

Jimin's heart completely stopped, forgetting how to breathe all together. For a moment time froze and his hands began to sweat in anxiety as the male beside him paid for the rings to the overly happy lady.

Who finally got her first customer.

He said he wasn't going to come...

Jimin slowly gained the courage to look up, meeting Yeosang's train of eyes.
