"You should enjoy your night."
Jiyeon stared at her friend's back as she walked out of the restaurant. She softly sighed, how could I enjoy my night when I am so worried for my friend?
She stood up and left the restaurant. She was alone anyway. There's no need to enjoy a nice glass of wine when you're alone in your table.
She walked through the sea of people. In that bright night, she wandered seamlessly. She almost crashed to two people arguing. Jiyeon muttered a soft apology then continued to wander off.
Is Hoseok okay? Is Mijoo okay? Are the two of them even okay right now? I can't stop worrying about ―
Her seemingly endless thoughts were interrupted when a sweet sound caught her attention.
'With you, under the mistletoe,' the voice sung beautifully with its sweet, melodious tone. Jiyeon hurriedly followed the voice.
She found it among the sea of people. A young man was playing with his guitar while singing the song flawlessly. Jiyeon couldn't help but be enticed by his voice.
She further moved closer to the busker to hear him more. She stared at him with wide eyes and a smile glowing on her face.
When the song ended, the young man searched through the small crowd for a possible duet.
"So, who would want to sing with me?" he softly asked. Jiyeon felt her heart skipped when he spoke. She just stood there, stunned by his glowing presence and alluring voice.
His presence felt so familiar to her. Like, she already met him before.
The young man then fixed his eyes on her. "You! Would you like to join me for a duet?" he asked, smiling at her.
Jiyeon stared at him, bewildered by the fact that he chose her. She pointed herself as if to ask if he meant her.
He chuckled at her and said, "Yes, you. Please join me."
"O-Oh, no. I'm not a singer or anything," she nervously told him.
The man just smiled at her, "You don't have to be a singer to be able to sing. Please. Just one song."
Jiyeon looked around her and saw that the people were urging her to join him. The latter gave her an encouraging smile, then held out this hand for her.
Jiyeon nodded hesitantly and the crowd cheered. She could see the young busker smiling widely upon receiving her approval.
She took his hand and she swore she felt sparks. She stared at the man beside her who still had a wide smile etching his face. She thought maybe tonight won't be so bad.
"We'll be singing 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas'," he informed the crowd. He then looked at her way, 'Ready?' he mouthed.
Jiyeon gave him a small nod and smile. He returned her smile then said, "I'm Jimin, by the way."
"Jiyeon. I'm Jiyeon. Um, have we met before? You look familiar," she asked curiously. She swore she met him before.
"I'm afraid this is our first meeting. I believe maybe you've seen me do busking in the streets before," Jimin casually answered. Jiyeon just nodded her head, considering his answer.
"Now, let's do it?"
"Yes, I believe we shall."
In that glowing night, the two of them sung their hearts out, their voices mingled through the night. Little did she know, they already met by fate.
