Mr. Park asked Jimin to sit beside him, that is opposite to Jungkook. They take shy glances towards each other as they settle comfortably into their seats.

"Do you guys know each other?" Mr. Jeon suddenly asks. "I mean you looked shocked to see each other?"
"Dad.. we met in Jin Hyung's wedding an year ago..." Jungkook replies with a nostalgic smile.

Mr. Park already knows about it thanks to Jimin's bodyguards who sent his pictures from the farmhouse.

"So this date is actually for me and you Jimin, only we don't know about each other!" Mr. Jeon jokes with a loud chuckle that makes Jimin laugh as well.

They start dinner soon. Mr. Jeon keeps asking Jimin about himself, who answers politely and concisely with a welcoming smile.

Jungkook keeps smiling in himself looking at him silently. He can see the nervousness on his face coming back whenever the elders talk within themselves and do not look at him.

'He's still a shy person' He chuckles internally.

After completing the dinner, Mr. Jeon asks Mr. Park to let the younger ones talk alone. Jimin looks at Jungkook shyly before looking at his father.

"Jimin, take him to your room... You guys can get to know each other... Don't take too long though..." Mr. Park speaks hesitantly.

Even after knowing Jungkook for so long, he was still hesitant to leave Jimin alone in his presence.

He was about to deny instinctively but he resisted himself because Jimin will live with Jungkook in his house after he gets married. He has to learn to trust.

"This way..." Jimin mutters and walks ahead.
Jungkook follows him without a word.
Their hearts start racing the farther away they get from their fathers.

Jimin opens the door to his room, and lets Jungkook walk in first.

"You can take a seat there..." Jimin gestures towards the sofa-chairs in front of his window. Jungkook suddenly turns around and looks him straight in the eye, effectively shutting Jimin's mind for a moment.

"Hi Jimin, how have you been?" He asks gently.
"Hi... I've been good, how about you?" Jimin replies with a shy smile.

"Don't know, just busy in the office, sometimes missed you."
"Huh!?" Jimin blushes hard when he sees a confident smile on Jungkook's face.

"I mean missed those days... I had too much fun..." Jungkook backtracks seeing the red on Jimin's cheeks. He can't kill the boy in shy attacks, can he now?
"Right..."

"Btw, did you know I was going to show up today?" Jungkook asks, looking at him from side.
Jimin shakes his head, "I had no idea..."

"So, were you ready to get married to just anyone?" He was curious to know at least this much. He crosses his arms and leans slightly on the nearest wall as he waits for Jimin to answer.

"I just got to know last night that appa has invited someone with the purpose of arranging a marriage... And he promised he won't force me to decide anything..." Jimin looks above, his heart does a little thing as he sees the familiar smile on Jungkook's face.

"Do you know I agreed to get married to you without knowing it was you. Coming to your home today, I had decided I won't rush things and go back on my words... But now, I don't think there's any need for that..."

"Hmm?" Jimin wets his bottom lip with the swipe of his tongue, and Jungkook follows the movement with his eyes. Jimin's heart skips a beat reminding him again of that cursed moment and he immediately looks away.
