Jungkook woke up with the sunlight hitting his face, only for him to realize that he was late for his first period in uni. Last night he stayed up all night hanging out with his hyungs, surprisingly it knocked him out of the daylight, and ended up in a deep slumber.
He quickly took a shower, scurrying his way out of his apartment towards the next train to his University. Despite him being in a hurry, no doubt that he still looked good, which vexes him the most, all the unwanted attention that he was getting from the huge amount of females in his school. His circle of friends made it worst for him, all of them had unknowingly set a high standards for people in their school. They were well known, even other students from different schools knows about them, and he'd like to keep it toned down.
It wasn't easy for a guy like him to adjust to his new environment, there were a series of hurdles, almost making him give up. It took him at least two years to get used to everything, he was a mere-shy boy who came from a rural place, having a culture shock due to the huge difference between the life he got used to, and now a complete opposite.
Finally he made his way towards his university, apologizing to his professor. He had to reflect on his actions, he was surprisingly attentive during his classes, till his stomach was grumbling, audible enough for his seatmate to hear. As a pair of chocolate buns, and a canned coffee was placed on his desk. Surely it made him more embarrassed at the fact, his cute seatmate handed him the food. His pride got ahead of him, picking up the food and returning it to his seatmate. She declined him , "It's okay, I know that it's the worst scenario being hungry while we have a lecture, it is distracting", she gives him a soft smile assuring him that it wasn't a huge deal to her.
He thanked her a million times, before turning his way to his locker. Though on his tracks he accidentally stepped on a notebook. He felt bad because it was actually a cute one, with initials on it. It made him curious, wanting to open the notebook, but his inner conscience opted him to not. He decided to keep it with him instead for the meantime, the excitement was very evident on his face, he couldn't wait any longer to open his locker and see what are the new contents inside
his locker.
A letter, he was expecting. Every single day of school, he would receive a letter from his secret admirer, that was named 'coffee girl'. It was the same cycle as well since he moved to this university, he would often receive a letter from the same person. He wanted to actually meet her in person, because it seemed like she was his guardian angel, whenever he needed something, or he was feeling blue, he would receive small gifts with sticky notes attached to it. He liked the idea, because this person was just admiring him sincerely, compared to his fangirls that stalked him most of the time, invaded his privacy, bullied every girl that would talk to him even it was for some educational purposes , even his professors were threatened, if they ever give him failing marks, which for all he knows wouldn't happen because of his scholarship.
He needed to maintain everything , to be tactful of his actions, it would cause a large amount of demerits and affect his standing for his scholarship. He wanted to pursue music, so this was the only way for his parents to agree. They weren't keen at the idea of him being away from them, they knew how he didn't have the capabilities at first, but it somehow shifted when he worked his way to get a promised scholarship. He can't afford to loose his chance for his ambitions in life, together with his hyungs.

Dear Jungkook,
Your birthday is near, I'm happy that I still can manage to send you my messages. I hope that you're doing fine, well I know that you are, don't forget to eat meals on time, and do your best in everything that you do. I heard that your fanclub will have a birthday bash for you, and I hope that we can meet soon, because my time is running out.
-Coffee Girl J
A small smile appeared on his face, but a wave of worry was obvious as well. It felt like her letters were going deeper every day repeatedly mentioning that her time was not enough?, was shrinking every day that passes by. He wanted to know the reason why, it pains him. Because she was the only one that as if sees through him. Wholeheartedly understands and sympathizes with him sincerely, he didn't want to let her go that easily. It's been two years, yet she still has the passion to do that every singe day, wouldn't it be tiring?, he thought. His thoughts were interrupted when Taehyung placed his arms around his shoulder. He quickly retreats his letter to his pockets, too late because Taehyung already saw what he was trying to hide.
"She still sends you letters?, I admire her for that. It's rare for someone to do that, besides the fact that she sounds friendly, no harm indented", Taehyung smiles widely at Jungkook, whom his cheeks were in a crimson color. "Ah, hyung let's just eat okay?", he grabbed Taehyung's arm dragging him to the cafeteria.
They sat in their usual table, Jungkook was still intently reminiscing about the events ealier, that cute girl who gave him food. "Yah Jungkook, stop spacing out will ya", Jimin, his hyung messed his hair making him realize that he was in his own world for a brief five minutes. "Hyung, you didn't have to do that", he whined at him. Jimin lets out a small chuckle before continuing on what he was saying. "Taehyung told us that girl still sends you love letters", Jimin puts his arms around Jungkook's shoulder teasing the youngest.
"That's cute tho", Namjoon speaks up while letting Jin feed him with the food that he cooked. "Our maknae is blushing", Hoseok pinches Jungkook's cheek, which made him more embarrassed. "Well, let us see the letter", Yoongi starts to check Jungkook's pocket, and got the letter from Jungkook that was trying to escape from Taehyung and Jimin's hold.
"Wait, what do you mean that she's loosing her time?", Yoongi scrunches his eyebrows analyzing the situation. "Is she leaving?", Jin asks curiously. Jungkook shrugged, without any ideas, but surely he knew that they needed to meet each other. "I think she is, I mean why would she say that unless she is going somewhere, or she's loosing interest in out maknae", Hoseok scratches his head in confusion.
"Lately she has been saying those things, and it's really bothering me as if she is going through something deep, and she used to sound optimistic before in her letters, but now it's only about giving me courage and she's not sharing her thoughts about herself now", Jungkook looks down, thinking of the other possibilities. Everyone agreed with Hoseok's theory. It seemed skeptical. "I think you should try and meet her, perhaps she's a sweet lady or rather an interesting person in general based from these letters, but it would be better if you had a hunch of her true identity, and ask her why does she like you", Jimin pats Jungkook's shoulder.
"I guess, I'll give it a try then. But what if she's you know", Jungkook hesitates.
"Man, don't tell me that unless you still like your ex man", Yoongi face palms warry about Jungkook.
"Yoongi's right, maybe you're just hesitant because you're not yet prepared to meet her, or you still have lingering feelings about your past love life, because it was a horrible experience for you", Namjoon says in a serious tone, he was trying to give him the best advice that he could give as an older brother.
"Yeah, you're right, I think I moved on already, and I want to meet her in person", Jungkook stands up with his fist in the air.
"That's the spirit, Jungkook fighting!", the boys cheered for their maknae.
Little did they know that there was someone who heard their conversation, and a pang of remorse was written on her face.
