"Here is yours. A bouquet of pink roses. I hope you like it, Sir."

He is my 9th customer. Yes, Saturday is always become a busy day for me.

"Thank you, you never disappoint me."

After he leave, I sit behind a pile of chrysanthemum. I gently massage the back of my neck with my left hand.

Not one minute yet, the next customer has come. But now I know from his smell. The smell that distinctive smell, very distinctive among thousands of flowers.

I stand up and give him a smile.

"Why you always come with that mask?"

He take his masked off and give me his sweet smile.

"As you know, poluted."
"Ya... ya... so, what will you order today?"
"Nope, I just come to see you, not to buy some flowers."

Jungkook is my regular customer now. He always comes once a week. He always spent a lot of time here.

He have a nice personality, cheerful, and always give me a positive vibes. Ah, once more, he has a very smooth and nice voice.

"By the way, what time you going home?"
"As usual, at 8PM. Why?"
"Would you like to take a dinner with me?"
"Dinner? Kinda formal occasion, Sir."
"Hahaha... not that formal, just eat a spicy ramyun then looking for an ice cream. How?"
"Like a date?"

I teasing him and I see him blushing.

"Hahaha... okay, Jungkook. I'm starving too."

We had a nice conversation after that till the time shows 8 PM.

"Oh, 8PM already? Wait, I will tidy up this first and take my bag."

While I tidy up the counter, I see jungkook occasionally, that waiting for me in the front of the store. He look so cool in black. Yes, all black! Shirt, ripped jeans, bag, hat, and also his mask.

"No, no! You can't fall for him, y/n!"

Then I grab my bag and walk into him.

"Ready?"
"Ready? What do you mean Jungkook? We just-"
"A date. You said before it's like a date. Ready for a date with me?"

He look at me with put a smile on his lips.

"Ah... okay." I smile him back. "I'm ready!"

Suddenly he grab my right hand. My heart beating so fast. Am I fall for him? Or may I?

"What? Your heart beating fast right now?"
"Wait, what? Nope!"

I try to hidden what I'm feeling right now but then Jungkook grab my hand tighter.

"Don't walk to fast, I want enjoying this night with you."

I don't want to build a hope toward him but really, I love that words.

"But your face look so red, girl!"

And I failed!

"Ah, this is nothing!"
"You can lie to yourself but not to me. You fall for me."

Then, I keep silent enjoying the night at Myeong-dong street with Jungkook.

I feel so happy, and I hope this happiness can last long since I haven't feel happy for a year. After the accident and I lost my dad.
