I couldn't sleep. so I fetched my phone and I dialled for hyemi's number. she didn't answer me though, so I sent her a message that I needed to talk to her urgently. which it helped, she answered my call after that.

"what is it, jungkook?"

I smiled from ears to ears like a little kid asking for a lollipop. "I'm sorry for calling you at this hour, but please hear me out," I pleaded, I wasn't sure if she was listening but it was quiet from the other line. "give me a day to show you how much I like you," I let it all out.

"jungkook, I just slapped you earlier, why would you ask me— "

"just one day, I promise you, in just one day. I'm going to make you like me too!" I sat up from my seat and looked at the time on the clock on my table. "please, hyemi?"

I heard a sigh from the other line, "fine." my heart skipped a beat after hearing her approval and then I asked her if she could go out at the next morning with me. "sure, jungkook..." she did sound hesitate but that didn't stop me from planning our little one date.

"okay, good night hyemi."

she hummed softly, "good night, jungkook." I smiled to myself once the call ended. my heart couldn't stop pounding as I look at her name on my phone screen. I didn't want to have a high expectation with the date but I kept on imagining it.

eventually, I had a great sleep even though I barely close my eyes. I wore an oversized white t-shirt with my usual denim jeans. I decided to let my hair look messy, who knows? maybe she would realise that I was very good-looking.

I went to her house, the moment I knocked on the door, my heart was about to explode. I couldn't move when the door was opened by someone else. "I'm really sorry, but Mr and Mrs Lee are not—"

"no, I'm looking for hyemi," I cut her off immediately as I lifted my chin, peeking at the inside of the house. I figured the person in front of me was a maid because she was wearing a uniform. she was looking at me in awestruck too. "is she here?" I asked worriedly.

the maid nodded her head, "would you like to come inside?" she opened the door wider, as she stepped aside for me to enter. "she's still upstairs," she said, "you must be her boyfriend." I smiled at the word, pleased by it but I had to shake my head and deny.

I waited for hyemi while sitting down in the massive living room. I looked around the room, examining their picture frames on the wall and the ones on their table. my stomach flipped once I realised the atmosphere of the house felt cold.

"sorry," then my heat stopped when I heard her voice, "I didn't know what to wear." I turned around to look at hyemi, I couldn't help but to drop my jaw. she was wearing a simple t-shirt underneath her pink coat and she wore a denim jeans with casual sneakers.

she looked at her reflection through her phone, like any girls would do when they are insecure. so I stood up, "you look beautiful. I mean, you're always beautiful but you make my heart weak right now," I didn't lie, she made me weak.

I was going to extend my hand out for her but I didn't want to look like I was desperate for her. she didn't like the whole romantic thing last time, so I figured that I shouldn't try to act all sweet.
