"Mr. Cho becomes the fifth victim on the list yet Authorities struggle to break through the killer's identity. Until then, make sure to stay safe and..."

The news anchor's voice faded in the back ground as I stared at the bowl of cereal in front of me. What a good way to start a morning. Before I could think any further a gentle squeeze at my hand brought me back to reality. I looked to my side only to meet his eyes - the eyes that held something gentle in them.

"Everything will be fine Sugar bear."

His voice - something akin to a rich, velvety chocolate - invaded my senses as I looked up at him, giving him a slight nod. He was dressed in a pollo t-shirt covered with checks of blues and purples accompanied with a jeans that suited him perfectly. A black Rolex hugging his left wrist - a cherry on the top. In short, he looked stunning.

I was adorned with the hues of pink and white. A crop top and a jeans with a floral beige hat and sneakers - my go to for picnics.

We were done with our breakfast before unnie spoke, looking at both of us.

"Take care of each other all along the journey and..." she paused, now looking at him. "Best of luck Jimin." Best of luck? For what? I looked at them as they exchanged looks. Something was fishy.

"Thanks noona! And don't worry. I don't know about her, but I sure am her knight in shining armour."

He looked at me, grinning ear to ear. He sure had a way with words as I felt my lips breaking into a smile. His gestures hadn't ended yet as I saw him extend his left hand out for me. I looked at him with wonder.

"Please, My Lady."

My Lady?! I broke into a laughter.

"You are so cheesy Mr. Park." I shook my head.

He grinned before whispering in my ear. "Only for you."

He smirked, looking at my reaction. I was damn sure that a red tint had covered my cheeks. My heart pounded as I took his hand. It was as if electric shocks sparkled in me as soon as we made contact. Was it really him? Putting my thoughts for later I looked back at unnie only to find her smiling in awe at us.

I cleared my throat. "Good bye unnie. Take care. I hope you have a good day working under the new C.E.O"

She nodded in hope, as we strode towards his car.

The interiors of the range rover covered with shades of caramel looked stunning just as the man driving it. His veined hands gripped the steering wheel with sheer perfection as I glanced at his side profile. His jaw line - the most prominent feature - looked so edged, I bet it could cut through almost anything and everything.

"Ahem...So...uhm...What was unnie wishing you luck for?" I started the conversation, breaking the silence. From the periphery I saw him smile, though his eyes kept looking ahead.

"Well...Sugar bear's curious huh? Too bad some secret's can not be shared."

I scoffed. It somehow irritated me knowing that I wasn't the part of something he knew.

"By the way..." this time it was him. "We are going to pick up the chaotic couple at Min-Joon's house first."

"Wait. Weren't they coming in Min-Joon's car?"

"Well...Yeah...but you see..." He glanced at me. I could feel a sudden change in his tone. What had happened?

"But...what?" I wasn't patient with things like these as I waited for him to spill the beans.
