It was a bright Sunday morning, a flock of birds were chirping cheerfully and flying freely up in the sky. It was the end of summer, the weather was particularly hot but that didn't stop Jiwon from going out for her grocery shopping since the kitchen was almost out of stock.

Jungkook slept over last night after their brief heart to heart moment. Eventually, he left early in the morning after breakfast due to some urgent paperwork he was required to deal with. Despite being busy, he promised her a date later in the evening.

Jiwon spent half of her day resting and lazing on the couch, watching dramas, reading online novels while snacking or napping. It was one of those days where she felt like doing nothing but slacking off. Later in the evening, she received a text from Jungkook informing her that he'll come back within an hour. Enough time for her to get ready for the anticipated date.

She had many options on what to wear that day such as a pair of chiffon mini dress with floral printed to show her feminine side. However, she ended up choosing a pair of brown high-waisted short pants and a sleeveless white blouse tucked in to be matched with an olive-green jacket covering her exposed arm.

The doorbell rang and Jungkook was waiting as the door popped open. He was slightly amazed by how brazen Jiwon looked with her shorts and her sleeveless top although it was covered by the knee-length jacket. Her casual summer outfit was splendid in his eyes.

"You look great, Jiwon-ah. Now, I'm regretting asking you out."

"What?! But why?" she was quite disappointed.

"I don't want other men to see you looking this fine, honey," he whispered softly near her earlobes, his breath touching her bare neck, sending chills down her spine.

"Stop teasing will you, Jungkook!" her face flushed red.

"Oh! I know you like it, Jiwonie," he winked while cupping her cheeks.

"Can we just go, like now!" annoyed.

Jungkook nodded with a wide smile, he intertwined their fingers and brought her close to him, walking side by side to the car. He was overjoyed, spending a quality time together was what he had been dreaming to do with Jiwon, they barely got the chance before but not today. However, a simple call ruined everything.

He picked up the call, "Hello?!" it was an unknown number.

"Hi, is this Mr. Jeon Jungkook speaking? I'm calling on behalf of Mrs. Jeon. She wants you home, now," he explained.

"Who are you? What are you doing there?"

"Sorry for the late introduction. I am Lee Minho, Mrs. Jeon personal doctor. She passed out a while ago, and her condition is quite weak. I think you should probably come and see for yourself."

"Okay! I'll be there soon! Please, take care of her in the meantime, Dr. Lee."

Jiwon could sense something was wrong with the sudden phone call and Jungkook's serious expression. She shoots him a confusing look. He guiltily glanced at his wife, reluctant in telling her the bad news but it was his mother after all.

"Sorry, Jiwon-ah. I think we should cancel our date for today. I need to return home," he lovingly holds her hand and kissed the back of it gently, feeling regretful.

"B-but why? Did something bad happened? Is everything okay?"

"My...my mom, she is not feeling well. The doctor called and she wants me to be there, I-I'm sorry," he averted his gazed, not wanting to see the upset eyes.
