My eyes widen and I stood up. "What?" I screamed in shock. "Jungkook, calm down!" My mom started to say but I glared at Jimin who was avoiding my stare.

"You knew this, Jimin. Didn't you?" I scowled at him but he didn't look at me. I turned to my dad and knitted my brows at him. "Why are you so obsessed with my love life?" I asked in desperation.

"You don't have a relationship. Do you?" Dad asked and I shook my head. "So I want you to go on a blind date." He announced and I clenched my jaws.

"I just went to one, a month ago. I have already gone to more than 20 blind dates that you set up for me this year." I complained.

"Yet you didn't find a girl," Jin remarked. "Are you asexual?" Hoseok asked and Taehyung gasped. "Don't tell me, you are gay?" Taehyung asked I was about to explode but my mom gasped.

Her eyes were filled with tears and she covered her mouth while looking at me. "You are gay?" She asked. I shook my head and was about to contradict her but Namjoon beat me to it.

"Mrs. Jeon, are you against him being attracted to a man?" He asked her seriously but I was about to deny his statement but my dad interrupted me. "If my son likes a guy then I'll support it. I don't see a problem tho."

"But how will they have kids? I want grandchildren." My mom says and I sighed deeply. "An adoption is always an option," Yoongi said while eating.

"Plus, it'll help with controlling the population as well as a lonely kid will have great parents," Jimin said. Hoseok was about to reply to that but this time I screamed. "Okay, okay! Alright! Fine! I'll go on the date! When and where? What's her name?"

I sat back in my seat and everyone smiled at my reply and continued eating. 

They always know how to convince me, don't they?

"I'm not quite sure about this girl because I've never seen her in any of the Mafia parties like your previous blind dates' candidates. Her father is a powerful and ruthless leader in the smuggling business. His wife died long back. And since he doesn't have an heir to his throne he was the one who reached out to us with marriage as a proposal. I accepted it knowing that at least I got another blind date proposal but their family is quite mysterious."

"What's her name?" I asked, completely disinterested in the storyline he just narrated. He looked up at me and smiled sincerely. "Jin-"

"What? I don't remember my dad sending me on blind dates with men!!!" Jin screamed but my dad shook his hands. "Listen to me first! It's Jin Ari. Jin is her last name and Ari is her first name."

I nodded at his answer and continued eating from my plate. "I know that this blind date is going to end up like others as well." I pointed out but Jimin shook his head.

"I don't think so. My instincts say that this one will be different. I have this gut feeling." He said and I scoffed at him. "Anyways. If I don't like her, I'm rejecting her straight away." I announced.

"There will probably be no one left to marry you then," Jin said while exhaling deeply.

"Then I'll marry no one!" I said and saw my parents glaring at me. I grinned at them and resumed eating.

"I am on my way, dad. Why do you keep nagging me?" I said while driving, the display screen of my car reading, 'Dad' on it.

"I have shared her phone number. I don't know what she looks like so I couldn't share her picture." I heard my dad's voice.

"Alright, dad. Here, I reached the cafe. I am hanging up." I said while pushing on the brake and then extending my index finger to touch the screen until I heard my mom's voice.

"Jungkook, hwaiting!" I chuckled and shook my head. "Yes, mom. Bye!" I said before hanging up. I turned off my car and unbuckled my seatbelt. I took my sunglasses and put them on.

I looked at myself in the rearview mirror and ran my fingers through my wavy locks. I exhaled deeply before grabbing my phone and wallet from the passenger's seat. I unlocked the door and got down from my car.

I walked towards the cafe while using my phone and kept my wallet inside my pocket. I went inside and looked for an empty seat. Spotting one next to the huge glass window with a view of the street, I strode to that seat. 

I sat down and unbuttoned my two suit buttons to sit comfortably. I clicked on the number that my dad shared before dialing it.

I waited until the other person picks it up but then I heard the ring stop, signaling that my call is received.

"Hello, Miss Jin. I am Jeon Jungkook. We have a blind date today. I have reached the cafe-" Before I can talk any further the line got cut from the other side.

I frowned in confusion and scoffed at the rudeness of this lady while looking at my phone screen.

"Woah! I guess a very rude and stupid person is the candidate for today's blind date." I mumbled to myself until I heard multiple cheers in front of me.

"Isn't that her?"
"She is even prettier in person."
"She looks like a goddess."
"Pomme is great!" I gasped at the last statement.

I quickly stood up and took off my glasses to look at my idol, next to the door of the cafe.

And there she is...

The true definition of a genius writer. She was wearing a blue silk fitted dress reaching her thighs covered by a black and white checkered blazer paired with a luxury handbag.

Her dark brown hair was let loose and parted with hairclips on one side and some locks fell on the other side of her face. Small diamond earrings dangling from her ear and her black pumps hugging her feet.

The silky smooth skin of her legs and her heart-shaped lips make her look more appealing.

She was signing papers for the girls and boys surrounding her. Probably, giving them her autograph-

Oh shit! This is my chance! I am finally meeting my idol. I need to get her autograph. Where is my pen?

I touched both of my pockets but cursed under my breath. The people moved away and I quickly rushed to her.

At least I can ask for a selfie maybe. 

She took off her sunglasses and her mesmerizing eyes fell into mine my breath hitched and I paused in my place. 

I feel like I will pass out. The Mafia King who makes sure that his enemies pass away is passing out in front of his idol. Incredibly embarrassing!

I swallowed deeply and slowly walked towards her and saw her doing the same for me which made me surprised. She probably figured out that I'm her fanboy that's why she is coming here to give me an autograph.

Pomme stood right in front of me and I flashed her the widest smile I have ever offered to someone.

She looked at me blankly and tilted her head. Aww . . . she looks so fucking adorable! My heart is beating so fast!

"Can I take a selfie-"
"Jeon Jungkook, right?" She interrupted me and my eyes widen.

My heart exploded, my brain is pumping too much oxygenated blood, my lungs are dancing the waltz with the kidneys and my stomach is kissing my liver. 

"Pardon?" was all I could manage to say. She extended her hand for a handshake and my shaky eyes looked at her hand and then at her intense eyes. 

She blinked softly before saying something that probably caused a huge meteor to crash on me and destroy all the organs inside my body.

"Nice to meet you. I am Jin Ari. Your blind date for today."
