After a day in the hospital, ____ was discharged and was sent home. Her wounds were healed, yet not fully recovered.

"____?! I was so worried about you." ____ said as she hugged her.

"Mom, your hug..." ____ said like she was out of oxygen.

"Oh, sorry." Her mother said as she let go of the hug.

Soon, ____ and her mother had a long conversation. ____ revealed everything of what happened and her mother was shocked when she heard about it. Your mother was mad at first, but soon calmed down and she suggests ____ to move to another school, which ____ declined since she doesn't want to.

Next day, ____ went to school. The girls who bullied ____ got suspended and were given punishments after their suspension, probably because Charlenne reported it in the Guidance office, which they have a huge trust on her, so they suspended and punished the bullies. So, the girl bullies were not in school today.

"Finally, those mean girls are gone... for now." Aylee said as she and ____ walked through the hallway.

"Let's just enjoy this peaceful atmosphere for now, Aylee. Until they return." ____ reminded.

"I know. I know." Aylee replied as they both went back to their classroom.

-Lunch-

"Seriously, they beat the crap out of you?!" Aylee exclaimed as she continued taking a bite from her lunch. We're sitting on the grass while having lunch at the garden as always. It has a cool atmosphere, clean, and full of healthy plants and trees.

"Oh, I'm so gonna whoop their ass-"

"Yah! It's okay. They're suspended and were given punishments. It's all under control." ____ said as she calmed Aylee down.

"But still, if I ever see their ugly faces again, I'm really going to bitch slap all of them." Aylee said like she's some protective badass mother.

Wew... Good luck with that then...

"Hey..." The two of them looked to see Taehyung standing right in front of them.

"What are you doing here?" Aylee questioned.

"Well, I just want to give her this..." Taehyung then brought out a dosirak box, but more elegant-looking one.

(A/N: A dosirak is sort of like a bento box, but that's what is called in Korean.)

"Oh, I see. Aish! I forgot I need to do something important! Let's meet later, ____~" Aylee said as she acted in a panic state and then she secretly showed a wink to ____ and with that, she took her lunch and left.

Yah! This girl! You have nothing to do today, liar! Aish! Seriously... I'm going to kick her ass if I see her again... ____ said in her thoughts as she looked at Aylee in irritation.

"Here..." Taehyung then sat beside ____ in a suitable distance between them and placed the dosirak on the ground. After that, he opened the lid of the dosirak box.

"Wow..." ____'s widened as she saw barbecued beef stew (bulgogi jungol) in the dosirak box. Its mouth-watering aroma aroused her appetite.

(A/N: This is an example of it, but of course, the arrangement of the food is arranged in a different way

"I never knew that you can cook..." ____ said in surprise, amazed of his cooking skills.

"Have a try..." He said and in response, ____ took her chopsticks and took some and ate it.

"It's so delicious..." ____ said as she continued chewing satisfyingly.

"Really? Thanks. My grandmother taught me this recipe when I was 8." Taehyung said as he let out a soft happy smile.

"Jinjja? I wish I had a grandma like yours." ____ said as she continued eating.

"If only she's still alive..." Taehyung stated.

"Ah! I'm so sorry." ____ apologized.

"It's alright. It's not your fault." He replied as he let out a chuckle and then silence grew between them.

"Here. Have some of your cooking as well." ____ broke the silence as she stook some with her chopsticks and brought it to Taehyung's lips, trying to feed him. He blushed at her action, yet he opened his mouth and ate it, his cheeks were tainted red.

"Thank you, Taehyung." ____ said as she let out a cheerful grin.

"Cute..." Taehyung softly muttered.

"Hm?" ____ asked, didn't hear what he said.

"I mean- No problem!" He replied as he let out a nervous laugh.

"Arasseo. Come to think of it, you didn't call me 'princess' or 'little kitten' today." She said as she let out a giggle.

"Really? I guess it's because I'm falling for you..." He said.

"What?" ____ said as she was shocked at his statement.

"Y-You already knew that since I told you before. But, it's kind of different. Like, whenever I see you, I would act different and not in my confident self unlike when we first met. I would stutter or act weird when I'm around you. I feel hurt rather than mad when some other guy talks to you or when you're hurt. I would feel really happy whenever we're together like I'm in heaven..." He explained and ____'s cheeks suddenly formed red.

"But I guess you already like someone else..." Taehyung said as his face saddened, looking at the ground.

Is he talking about Jungkook?

"I..."
