Eun-ji was the girl who lived next door and younger sister of Jungkook's friend. When her older brother went off to college, Yoongi asked Jungkook to look over her.
What he didn't know was she's had a major crush on him for as long as she can rememb...

"Jimin, it's still bleeding..." You cry in panic while holding the cotton against Jungkook's cheek.
"I'll go get my mom, hold on okay?" Jimin says on the other line.
You've been attending to Jungkook's wound in the past 10 minutes and it hasn't stopped bleeding. You try to apply more cotton but all it does is temporarily stop the oozing. This made you feel more anxious especially after seeing a bunch of cotton soaked in blood piling up.
Knowing that Jimin's mom is an ER nurse, you instinictively called him up. Jungkook wasn't even flinching from the pain and kept on telling you he's fine but when you attempted to leave a bandaid on it didn't take long for it to get soaked in blood. That's when you finally decided to call.
"Hi honey... Can you focus the camera on the wound?" Jimin's mom said.
You aim the camera on Jungkook's face and removed the cotton from blocking the view. Blood came flowing down his cheek and Jimin can actually hear you gasp in response.
"Okay put more pressure on the wound... It's not that obvious from the outside but I think the cut is quite deep." Mrs. Park says.
"What should we do?" You asked with a shaky voice.
"Do you have a medical tape and gauze pads?"
"Yes we do..." Jungkook says in reply and fishes out the tape and a bunch of gauze pads from the first aid kit.
"Perfect! I'll teach you how to cut the tape so you can close the wound properly okay?"
Jimin got hold of his phone and showed his mom demonstrating how to cut the tape into dumbell shaped strips. You remember how Yoongi also had the same strips anchoring a wound on his arm when you were kids.
Mrs. Park proceeded to show you how to place it properly on the wound. You're getting more nervous since no one else could do it properly but you so you can't mess up.
After makimg a total of 4 strips, you pinched the gaping wound steadily and continued with applying the tape one at a time. It bled a little but not as bad as earlier.
"It worked!" You squeal in excitement seeing how the wound suddenly stopped bleeding.
"That looks great Eun-ji... You did an excellent job!" Mrs. Park said looking proud.
"I knew you can do it!" Jimin chirps in with a wide smile on his adorable face.
"Thank you Mrs. Park... thanks Jimin... We're so sorry to call this late." Jungkook says from the back as you hold the phone up for him.
"Yes... thank you so much Mrs. Park... Jimin-ah." You interject, eyes looking teary.
"Oh don't mention it... Just make sure to clean it daily and don't get it wet for the next 3 days." Mrs. Park says in reply.
You finish off with applying sterile gauze on the wound before sealing it with tape. Moving your hands ever so lightly with undivided focus to make sure you're doing exactly how Mrs. Park instructed.
Jungkook ordered pizza as a thank you for what you did for him. It wasn't really necessary but he looked too exhausted that you didn't want to argue anymore and wear him out.
"That Jimin guy's really something else huh?" He asked in between munching on his slice.
"Yeah, he sure is." You replied without giving him a glance, unaware of his real thoughts on the subject.
"So... you met his mom?"
"Yup... and everyone else like his dad, granny and little sister."
"Has Yoongi met him?"
"Uh-huh..." You said and was quite taken aback by the way Jungkook fell silent and was smiling at you. "Is there something on my face?" You asked, still oblivious to the fact that he was already teasing you.
He has that mischievous smile that gave him away before finally opening his mouth. "You're happy..."
"What's that suppose to mean?... Wait, I know that look..." You protest as Jungkook started smiling sheepishly. You crumple an unused napkin and threw it at him.
"What?! I just think that you and Jimin would make a cute couple."
"Oh no... please don't say that." You plead in frustration. "We're just friends, nothing more."
"It all starts from there..." Jungkook's smile faded and you could tell he was trying to downplay it.
"Was that how you and Liz started?" You asked almost hesitantly.
"Yeah..."
"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to pry." You said in an audible whisper.
"I know it'll come up eventually... I can't just pretend no one else knows."
"You don't owe anyone an explanation... Just keep going... everything will get better soon."
Just as you said that, Jungkook's phone started buzzing and the way his face dropped from a genuine smile to a haltering shock in an unbelievable speed made your insides turn.
