I Need You

50

The rest of the tour has gone great.  We have performed in Singapore, Fukuoka, Hong Kong, and Bangkok since we were in Nagoya.

Jungkook and I are still kind of in the "honeymoon" phase of the relationship.  No arguments, nothing, just pure happiness.  We have decided to take things slow and just enjoy it.  Since we are on tour together, we spend a lot of time together, but we always like to have our alone time, too.  You know?  So we don't get annoyed with each other too quickly.

Anyway, we just completed the tour last night in Bangkok, Thailand.  I cried when I was saying my goodbye speech because this was my first tour and it has just ended.  The rest of the guys cried, too, and it was really sweet.

When Jungkook was saying his speech, he walked over to me and put his arm around me and the whole audience started "aw"-ing and going crazy.  It's honestly so funny how they go nuts over Jungkook and I. 

Today we are in Hong Kong packing up our stuff to go to the airport to head back to Seoul.

As I am packing, I get a call from my mom.

"Hey Mom, what's up?" I ask as I am putting my laptop in my duffel bag.

"Jade, the deadline to apply or accept your acceptance to Harvard is in 2 weeks.  They even gave us an extension," she says.

"I know Mom, I'm just not 100% sure about going."

"Why?" 

"Because I just don't want to leave the guys, and Jungkook, and I love this career."

"I understand.  And I know you are happy where you are right now, but this is an amazing opportunity and I would hate for you to pass it up," she says.

"I know.  I don't know what to do," I say sitting down on my bed.

"Well, here's my advice.  Go and see how you like it, and if you hate it or miss the guys too much, you can leave next semester or whatever.  It never hurts to have a backup plan in life in case this business you're in doesn't work out."

"You're probably right," I say, "Ok.  Send them my acceptance letter.  I pre-wrote it in case and stuck it in the right drawer of my desk.  All you need to do it date it."

"You're making the right choice Jade," she says.

"I know I am."

"I am so proud of you."

"Thanks Mom," I say.

I hear a knock at my door and I say, "Who is it?"

"It's Jungkook," he says.

"Ok Mom, I gotta go, let me know when you send the letter, love you!"

"Love you, too!  Bye!"

I hangup the phone and go to open the door for Jungkook.

"Were you on the phone?" he asks me walking in my room.

"Yeah it was my mom."

"What about?" he asks while sitting on the bed.

"Well, I need to talk to you," I say sitting on the bed next to him.

"This doesn't sound good," he says looking skeptical. 

"Well, I mean it's good, but it can also be taken badly."

"Not very reassuring," he says slightly laughing, "What's up?"

"So, I got into Harvard.  An Ivy League college in Boston, Massachusetts, and I got a full scholarship."

"Jade!  That's great!  Are you going to take it?" He asks me standing up.
