Jungkook

I mentally chuckled as I heard those introductory words coming from the stranger.

This woman is clearly hitting up on me. Using roses as an introduction is funny. She thinks that I'm a flower fanatic.

"Okay Jaira, what can I do for you?" I smiled at the woman. She's four inches lower than me. She got a natural tan complexion, accentuating her facial and body structure. If I were to classify her beauty, she falls between a Latina or a Southeast Asian. Either of the two.

"Sorry if I introduced myself straight up to you. It's just I heard a lot of good things about you from the people I know. You are quite popular didn't you know?" I don't know if how should I react to what she said. Is it a bad thing or not?

"May I ask who are these people you are referring to?" I narrowed my eyes at her, making sure I didn't look intimidating in her view.

"The people I know from the university you are in." She answered with a smile. I nodded slightly after I heard what she said.

Of course, those schoolmates of mine would have talked about me. Perhaps Niall happened to mingle with her during their club meet ups. Possibilities are endless and so are 'what ifs'. I didn't question her further. Instead, I changed the topic.

"Using roses as your fact about yourself quite surprised me a bit. That's a nice preference. Roses are commonly use as a symbolism of romantic love."

"I was not lying about that. I didn't use it just because I saw you carrying that book you are holding." She eyed the book then shifted her gaze back at me. "Actually, I really love them and seeing you buying that book is enthralling. I never knew you are into that, am I wrong? I bet those college kids didn't know about this."

"No, I'm buying this because I want to study more about the flowers' diversity."

"Oh I see. That's good! You are really a studious student according to the rumors. I confirmed it myself." She plastered a delighted smile.

I saw her still offering her hand to shake mine. I held it.

"I don't need to introduce myself anymore because you already know my first name. In case you don't know I'm Jeon Jungkook, 24 years of age. It's fancy meeting you here." I shook her left hand, smiling at her. She released it after and went on her purse.

She handed me a business card. Oh, she got a fancy occupation.

"Here's my complete name and my number. So if you need some help or your friends do, don't hesitate to call me!" She said in a cheerful tone.

We parted our ways after we purchased the things we need. She liked to meet me again in some other time. I nodded in agreement as I am interested in meeting her again too.

I noticed the thing on her right hand. Hmm, we must have shared the same needs. I walked away on the opposite direction.

Jaira

I put down the supplies on the table. I removed my garments I only wore whenever I work, leaving myself only in my underwear. I rubbed my temples using my index fingers as if so much have happened this day.

Back to Madam Kang.

She never showed an odd behavior until now. I should take a note about this. I'll observe her if ever she did something unusual again. She seems completely fine, on the outside.

She is really unpredictable sometimes.

Now that I met the Jungkook guy, it's up to me on where to find this Coleen lady. That was merely a coincidence, an encounter with Jeon Jungkook.
