The ride to the restaurant with Jungkook  was filled with silence as I gulp, remembering Taehyung's glare. Jungkook suddenly tapped my arm that made me regain my senses, "Yes?" I asked looking at him. "You sure you're okay? You've been feeling so tense since we left Taehyung's house" he said looking at the road.

"Ah that, I'm sorry I just feel a little uncomfortable with Taehyung's rudeness" I replied wondering if I should have really said that to Jungkook. He chuckled "Oh was it because of Taehyung ignoring you? I'm sorry it's my fault but don't worry he's just jealous and stuff. He'll eventually talk to you again soon because you look like--

He suddenly stopped talking still not glancing at me. "I looked what?" I asked but he gave me a shrug, "Sorry I forgot what I was about to say" he replied that made me sigh.

We reached the restaurant and we came in sitting on the seats near the window. "This place looks peaceful"I commented looking around. "I'll make the orders, suit yourself" Jungkook said approaching a waiter.  The place looks formal but has a casual vibes like a cafe. Green plants and pretty flowers were hanging around the walls with lights hanging beside it.

I think they'll open it at  night making the room glow in pretty lights, this restaurant is really great. I snapped out from my thoughts once Jungkook returned to his seat, "So how was it?" He asked. "Two words, Truly Beautiful" I smiled.

"Glad you like it" he smiled back and a few minutes later our order finally came. 

"You mentioned earlier about your work but you didn't revealed what was it, Can you tell me now?" I asked as I munched my food. Jungkook brush off the little pieces of food left on his lips and started talking, "My work is not that much do you still wanna know?" he asked. I just simply nodded my head as he sighed. "Fine, I work as a model and endorse some products that's all" he looked away feeling embarrassed. 

"How can you look so embarrassed with a cool job you have" I honestly said looking at him. "It's not that cool and I just started working as a model so the public doesn't know me that  much" he replied. "It's okay, I feel like you'll be a big shot someday and if that time comes please lend me some money" I joked making him laugh.

We finished eating our food and left the restaurant. We decided to hang around a little more by visiting some shops around the city. On our way back to Taehyung's house I pointed to a billboard along the highway, "You see that? I'm sure in a few more years from now, I'll be seeing a poster of you on that" I smiled. He glanced outside to see what I was pointing and flashed me a genuine smile.

It was already nighttime when we finally reached Tae's house as I get off the car. "Thanks for the lunch and for spending time with me" I said. "No problem, I really had a great time" he smiled back. I quickly took a paper from my pocket and gave it to Jungkook. "What is this for?" he asked in confusion. "I'm asking for you autograph in advance since you'll be famous real quick" I chuckled. Jungkook laughed messing my hair, "That's not good, my autograph's not free you know" he teased. "Aish, so thrifty" I teased back finally waving goodbye as I entered the gates.

The house was dark so I went near the door to switch on the lights and to my surprise, Taehyung was sitting on the sofa looking at me.

"Ya! You surprised me" I suddenly shouted. 

"What time do you think it is, huh?" he asked with a serious tone. "I-I'm sorry I'm late" I muttered looking down. "Don't think highly of yourself, I saw you went out with Jungkook. He doesn't like you and he's just playing around. Plus you're just a maid, a slave to be exact" he said turning around as he walk away.

I felt my tears falling down my cheeks as my heart aches. His words were like blades that hit through my bones, It was utterly painful. I sat on the sofa sobbing as I cover my face with my palm.

A few moments later I felt a pair of hands on my back hugging me. I look up to see Taehyung with guilt shown on his face. "What now? Do you still have anything to say and belittle me?" I asked sobbing the tears I have always kept from his rudeness. But no reply was heard from Taehyung. I felt a sudden anger rushed through my veins. 

"You don't need to hug a slave like me"

"Are you done acting nice to fool me again!" "Or your're feeling guilty? Hah! What am I even saying, you won't ---

My mouth was shut by his lips crashing to mine. Silence filled the air as my eyes widen from surprise. He backed away ending the kiss. "You're too loud" he muttered looking at me. "I'm sorry okay, I regret every hurtful words I said to you, I-I just don't like you getting near Jungkook" he confessed.

What the hell is this? Am I dreaming? He kissed me and he was jealous.

" And I don't know but the first time I saw you I felt familiarity. I feel like I already know you even if it was our first time meeting each other. You filled my thoughts every single day I hate it. I want to get rid of you but I can't" he continued.

"Just who are you Eve? Who are you to me?"
