Jungkook glanced once again at his digital clock on the night stand. 2.58 am. He still couldn't sleep despite being exhausted from their wedding. She was still wrapped around his arm sleeping in peace. He stole a glimps
at his wife's face whom was once a stranger. Their first meeting was a coincidence but that was when the miracle happened.

He approached her not due to any attractions between them. There was a sudden urged to comfort her after hearing her mumbling about how depressed her life had been throughout the years. He felt the need to show empathy. His original plan was to only used her for an escape as they would be mutually benefit from each other's presence.

However, as they kept on meeting and texting whenever required, he felt a spark which lead him towards her even more like a magnet. He was slowly beginning to get attached and attracted by her simple but strong personality. There was never a single moment between them without an argument or quarrel. She was stubborn yet cold at the same time, refusing to let herself lose in any situation. He being a man at the same time, could not afford to lose either.

Therefore, defensing themselves was the best they could do. But Jiwon was the one who would always end up surrendering herself. Her reactions were what he looked up to every time and her comebacks amused him the most. Yet, it wasn't love.

She is a pretty lady and it should be enough to make him stumble upon her sooner or later. Still, he didn't fall for it as he believes, being beautiful is in humans control as they can always draw on their faces with beauty products. But her inner beauty was what made his icy cold heart to be completely melted. One sunny day was all he needed to fall head over heels for her.

As he was walking her home, they bumped into an old woman around her 60's. She was piggybacking her five years old granddaughter, who was crying due to the injury on her knees. The granny was climbing up the stairs with difficulty as she was somewhat weak herself. Her knees were trembling with every step that she took.

The moment that opened up his heart for her was when she took the child from the granny without any thoughts and carried the girl on her back. He could sense that Jiwon herself was not strong enough to carry someone on her small figure. It would be easier if she just asked him for a help but, she entirely ignored his existence at the moment.

He wanted to lend a hand but he was testing her at the same time to see for how long can she endured the weight. Being the stubborn and strong lady, she didn't show signs of stopping her track even for a short break. Only then he decided to help her as it was too suffocating to just watch her struggling.

Later that day, he realized that he wanted to cherish the lady who never complaints about her difficulties but keep her pace moving forward to achieve her life goals. And he could still remember on how she cried herself out on his chest after voicing her inner thoughts as she stated that she was starting to trust him and have faith in him and somewhat she found that he was the source of her strength.

'How could I not fall for someone as pure and innocent as her?'

Jiwon's sleep was disturbed by the sunlight that crept inside the room through the curtain. She hid her face using the pillow next to her by burying her face in it. But she could not feel the softness of the pillow. She only hurt her nose as it was hard and stonic. She rubbed her eyes before struggling to open it. 'Why am I sleeping against a wall?' she thought as the hard surface in front of her was plain white.

She tried to turned to the opposite but she failed. A heavy weight was place against her waist tightly. Her shoulder was somewhat chained into a hug. She felt weird and rubbed her eyes even harder to have a better view.
