Yoongi opened the car door for Kristene and she got into the car. He played some slow piano music because he knew Kristene loved the piano tones and it calmed  the whole atmosphere.

True enough that she could not play and was not even green in the subject, but Yoongi could remember well how she stared at him when he played the piano for her, when she happened to visit his home with him. She was mesmerized and Yoongi could almost feel her admiration. Kristene's gaze was so strong.

The rust and dust of the piano was wiped off by her.

Just like his life.

That was the day he confessed to her.

His life became new and the past dust was blown away by her presence.

The flashback made Yoongi smile.

“Oppa, why are you smiling suddenly?” Kristene asked in amazement.

“Just that... I remembered the day I confessed to you.”

“Omooo... Oppa remembers. Can you remember how I first slid into your place through a window after climbing a tree?”

“Of course, how can I forget that? You saved me and I am forever grateful for that. You gave my life back in two ways; you saved me from death and you loved me so much and still you do.”

".... And I will love you tomorrow too," Krissy added as she felt her cheeks getting hot.

Yoongi put out his hand and Kristene slid her little hand into his and stroked the back of Yoongi’s hand from her thumb.

“Hold on ... I haven’t heard this one before...”

“Ahh, that is ... I am actually working on it. This is just the melody.”

“It sounds beautiful. What is it called?”

“So far away ...”

"It is melancholic, but beautiful... my boyfriend is so talented, I see," Krissy chirped.

They had almost made it to the school and it looked as if Christmas had come early to the place. The trees were adorned with white and gold lights. Against the black background, it looked breathtaking.

“DAEBAK!” Hoseok who was screaming ran at Kristene.

“Hoseok-ah.. gwenchana?”

Aniyo... arghh, my heart hurts...” Hoseok acted as if his heart was pierced by the cupid’s arrow.

Pabo, that is your stomach,” Min Yoongi said with a smirk.

Soon, Namjoon and Eun Sang came into the scene. Namjoon couldn’t help but smile at Hoseok’s reddening face. Eun Sang hit Namjoon on the back of his head.

Aiish this boyfriend of mine... don’t laugh when your friend is in trouble.”

“But he walked into trouble. He should have known that my dongsaeng’s boyfriend spits fire,” Namjoon said.

“Kristene-ah.. there you are! Guys come over here. We are having the couple photos over here,” said Taehyung and grabbed Yoongi’s hand. He dragged us towards a little stage. The pillars were white and blue lights were entwined around the pillars. The ceiling of the stage was of green foliage and white roses. Taehyung seriously had a sense of art.

“Now pose. When I say ‘set’ I am taking the picture okay?”

Yoongi and Kristene haven’t had a couple picture before and it made both of them so nervous.

Hana, dul ... YAAAH.. POSE!” Taehyung screamed.

“TELL ME HOW YOU BIG DUMBO?” Yoongi screamed back.

“They always need baby-sitting as a couple. Should I call it ‘couple-sitting’? ” It was Jin who had made it to Tae’s makeshift stage.

“Act romantic! Guys, you are above 18 and do you mean that you haven’t had a couple photo still?”

“This may sound strange, but Yoongi and I were not officially girlfriend and boyfriend until today,” Kristene replied.

AIIISH someone teach them jebal!!! I cannot bear this anymore!” Hoseok yelled from the background.

“Even kindergarteners know how people pose for couple photos,” Jimin who had Ji Eun with him said.

“Truly pathetic,” Ji Eun also assented.

As the boys were debating how Yoongi and Kristene were to pose, Mandy came up and helped the new official couple.

“Kristene-ah, have your hand like this and Yoongi Oppa, be like this...” Mandy positioned them and the duo was ready to be on photo paper.

“YES! Finally!! Get ready guys,” Tae said.

They nodded to say that they were ready.

HANA, Dul... Click!”

“YAH, KIM TAEHYUNG! You did not freaking say 'SET!' ” Yoongi was clearly annoyed.

“You two look perfect at any time in any angle. I just felt that 'Set' was not needed.”

Anyway, the picture turned out to be like this.

Yoongi had his right arm around Kristene’s waist and Yoongi and her were looking at each other.

Taehyung was immensely pleased with the natural looking picture and was already thinking of a way to frame the picture and hang it in his living room. True enough, his photography skills were no joke, yet the couple made his skills outlined in greater detail. Kristene put the polaroid picture in her purse.

The cold breeze that swept in twirls made Kristene cling to Yoongi and he also hugged her after securing his jacket around her tiny figure.

She couldn’t help but smile as she thought of getting Tae to photograph hers and Yoongi’s wedding as well.

They were innocent dreams and the wind also knew that.
