When the last day arrives, the elderly couple doesn't want them to leave.

It's probably because their child is in the city and barely visits, thus, spending time with these two youngsters from the city has been wonderful.

Jungkook 's last words firmly expresses that he'll visit again. And Jimin, of course, he'll come by once in a while.

Unlike the quiet, sullen car ride they took to the farm, they come back full of joy.

As Jungkook takes the wheel, they talk and banter, any words that come into Jimin's head that reminds him of a song, he sings them. After a long car ride of melodies, the car stops in front of a small house.

Jimin carries his bags out of the car, but before he disappears into the gate, Jungkook calls out to him, "Jimin!"

"Yeah?" He looks over his shoulder.

"Come here." Through the car's window, Jungkook 's finger motions for Jimin to go to him.

Jimin drops his two bags by the gate and walks back to the car. He leans down and asks, "What?"

"I won't get to see you for the next few days, can you give me a kiss before you go?" Jungkook asks in a serious manner.

Jimin smiles, leans in through the window, and kisses Jungkook -ever so gently.

"I love you. I'll call you later," he whispers sweetly before he turns around and heads to the gate.

"I love you more," Jungkook declares in a cheeky voice.

"Must you always win?!" Jimin turns to look while Jungkook annoyingly waves with a grin, sliding his window up, and eventually drives away.

Once the car disappears into the street, Jimin picks his luggage up and walks to the porch. Before he even tries to open the door, the door opens.

"Uncle." Jimin doesn't expect his uncle to be home. Two days ago, when he talked to him on the phone, he didn't mention when he'll be back.

"Bring your bags in." Jiwon makes way and gestures his nephew to come in.

Jimin brings his bags inside and disappears into his room. Once he comes out, his uncle asks, "Do you want something to eat?"

"Yeah, we left early in the morning. I haven't had breakfast yet," he says as he walks into the kitchen.

"That's right. You said you took a friend along." Jiwon sits down at the dinner table full of food. He was having his meal when he heard noises at the door. He figured it was Jimin and indeed it was him.

Jimin takes a plate and grabs some silverware before taking the seat in front of his uncle.

He glances at him and begins the heart-thumping subject in a cautious manner.

"Yeah . . . Uncle, actually, the friend I mentioned isn't exactly a friend."

He thinks it's a suitable time to tell his uncle now. His feelings for Jungkook only grow stronger each day and he can't see himself stop loving that man.

He's sure of everything and would like his uncle to be aware of it. And he can tell that his uncle isn't totally oblivious to the fact that he's seeing someone.

Jiwon holds his gaze with Jimin and notices his nephew's glints of shyness shining through his relaxed voice.

"Jimin, you're dating, aren't you?"

Jimin nods confidently with cheeks turning pink. His natural sweet smile appears.

"So, who are you seeing?" Jiwon asks intently with a smile.
