Jungkook had a restless night, tossing and turning in bed, his mind replaying the events of the day before. The weight of the arranged marriage weighed heavily on his mind, leaving him feeling agitated and restless. When he finally woke, he felt more exhausted than when he had gone to bed. He let out a deep sigh, rubbing his hands over his face before getting out of bed and readying himself for the day.As he went through his usual morning routine, Jungkook's mind was still preoccupied with thoughts of the woman who was now his wife, the one he had barely even spoken a word to.

Jungkook tried to convince himself that marrying Yn was nothing more than a formality, a tradition carried out for the sake of the mafia, more like a deal which her father made.He repeated this trying to ignore the growing feeling in his chest. But deep down, he knew that there was more to it than he wanted to admit. The thought of his unexpected marriage sat like a heavy burden on his soul, clouding his thoughts and making it difficult for him to focus on anything else. Despite his best efforts to push the thoughts aside, he couldn't help but feel a sense of irritation and confusion about the whole situation. It was as if his life had been turned upside down overnight.Despite the anger and confusion he felt, there was another feeling that he couldn't quite explain - an inexplicable pull towards Yn. He couldn't deny the flicker of attraction he felt when he looked at her, the spark of curiosity about who she really was. Yet these feelings only added to his irritation, stirring up a maelstrom of emotions that he couldn't make sense of.

Jungkook entered all ready to leave for work when his eyes fell on y/n who was setting the table for breakfast she already made.He paused for a moment, taking in her appearance, She looked different in the morning light, her features softened with sleep. Jungkook approached the table, and he asked, "What are you doing?" His voice was gruff, and his eyes were narrowed,

She keeps the plate on table and answered him,"watering the plants." Her sarcastic remark makes him snort quietly.
"Well I was hungry so I made breakfast."
Jungkook's irritation began to simmer down slightly as she explained that she had made breakfast as she was hungry, and not out of some kind of obligation. He was used to fending for himself in the mornings, so the sight of breakfast ready and waiting for him took him by surprise. A hint of curiosity crept into his expression as he glanced at the food laid out on the table. He didn’t want to argue further as he was hungry himself
Despite the tension between them, Jungkook's hunger got the better of him, and he found himself sitting down across from Yn and starting to eat. The food was simple but tasty, and he couldn't deny that it hit the spot. For a few minutes, they ate in silence, the only sound the clinking of cutlery against plates.
After he finished eating, Jungkook pushed his chair back and rose from the table. He was starting to feel a little more comfortable in her presence, although he'd never admit it to her or even to himself. He cleared his throat and said, "Thanks for the food," his voice a little softer this time.

"What time will u come home?"

Yn's question caught him off guard, and he paused for a moment before answering, his mind flickering to the realization that he now had to think about someone other than himself. "I'll be back around eight," he said finally, his voice steady. "Why do you ask?"
"Nothing."

As he turned to leave, Jungkook said bluntly, "Don't wait for me." There was a hint of finality in his tone, as if he wanted to make it clear that he didn't expect her to be waiting for him to come home. He paused for a moment, his gaze flickering over to her, before quickly heading out the door.

She scoffs at him," as if I would."

Yn gazed around the now empty penthouse, feeling the weight of solitude settle over her. She'd always lived alone and had grown accustomed to it, but now this new, unfamiliar space only amplified her feelings of isolation. Despite her best efforts to keep a brave face, she felt an unexpected pang of melancholy.
The silence in the penthouse was deafening, and the emptiness seemed to echo with a thousand unspoken words. Yn tried to shake off the feeling, but she couldn't help but feel swallowed up in the enormity of the space. She took a deep breath, determined to find something to keep her occupied and her mind off the loneliness.Feeling the weight of loneliness closing in on her, Yn decided that the only thing she could do to escape it for a while was to sleep. With a soft sigh, she laid her back on the couch in the living room, letting the exhaustion of the day wear down her body and her emotions.

Hours later, Jungkook returned home, weariness etched on his face. It had been a long and tiring day, filled with endless mafia meetings and deals. Good thing taehyung is always there to handle everything; be his work or anger.The fatigue weighed heavily upon him, his shoulders slumping under the weight of it all. As he stepped inside the penthouse, he paused for a moment, taking a deep breath to try and shake off the tiredness.He made his way further into the house, his footsteps echoing softly in the quiet space. He could sense that the house was quiet, no sounds or signs of another person.

As he spotted Yn asleep on the couch, Jungkook stopped in his tracks, a lump forming in his throat. She was so still and silent that for a moment he thought she might be dead, her body limp and her breath so light that it was almost imperceptible.Despite his best efforts to maintain his aloof exterior, Jungkook found his curiosity getting the better of him. Without thinking too much about it, he slowly reached out his hand toward her nose, gently brushing his fingertips against her skin to check for any hint of breath.As Yn suddenly stirred, woken by the light touch of Jungkook's fingers on her nose, he jerked his hand back like he'd been caught doing something forbidden. He stood there, frozen in place, heart pounding with surprise.

"Oh God how long I have been sleeping!" She mumbles to herself and looks around and find jungkook standing there looking at her weirdly."when did you came back?" 
"Just when you were dead asleep" he retorted back. She was embarrassed as hell she tried to change topic," did u had dinner?"
"No"
" Oh then I'll make it quick."
Her offer caught him off guard, and he stared at her in surprise for a moment. "No, you don't have to."
"Well I am hungry and I'm gonna cook for me if you feel like eating you can join."Jungkook was surprised by her straightforwardness. He paused for a moment, considering her words, before reluctantly nodded his agreement. As much as he tried to deny it, he was secretly relieved at the thought of  having someone to take care of him after a long day.

The dinner passed in a somewhat uneasy silence, broken only by the clinking of cutlery against plates as they ate. After dinner, Jungkook leaned back in his chair, feeling a mix of relief and lingering discomfort. He glanced over at Yn, who was quietly cleaning up the dishes, and tried to pretend like everything was normal.
As Yn wiped her hands on a kitchen towel, Jungkook suddenly blurted out a question, breaking the silence. "Why were you still waiting I told you not to wait up,"
"And who told u I was waiting for you, I fell asleep on couch and you just came  before I could even wake up."
Jungkook let out a soft scoff, a mixture of irritation and relief. "Sure," he muttered, not entirely convinced. "You just happened to fall asleep on the couch, right? No intention of waiting up for me or anything like that."
"No"
Jungkook cleared his throat after learning that she wasn't waiting for him and it was just the situation that made it look like it.He had secretly hoped, even for a moment, that she had been waiting for him. But he quickly shook off the thought, scolding himself for being so foolish.
"I'm gonna sleep now." He didn't know why he told her this it was such an unnecessary information.
She nods at him and looks at his disappearing figure with a small smile

"The ice cube is melting"
