Chapter 1: Recitation

My life diverge with an additional black and white atmosphere, as I transferred in this academy for music and arts. I wasn't expecting a worse change for it, until the first day that I met Jungkook. Sounds cliché like a romantic ones in novels. But from time to time our wraths never subsided in that moment. We were like competing in a contest, showing-off our skills in the art class.
Clearly, it was after thirty minutes of drawing when the two of us called for a recitation. Interesting explanation was a must for that day's activity.

The subject needed was all about flowers. I designed a primrose amidst the strange woods, while his was a bouquet of sunflowers, slipping off from the man's hand. Our professor wanted to hear something deep beyond the curves of those lines and realistic shades of color. He wanted to hear a good association of story too.

So as soon as we stood up and heard each other's explanations, a glimpse of envious was written all over our faces. I wasn't expecting the confidence that we both revealed. Don't judge the book by its cover they say. Since, I thought he's just good in arts and possesses a prepossesing look. Nothing more than that. Like, he has nothing else to boast of. I could perceive his arrogance in his eyes.

So apart from the magnificent skills that were visible on both canvas, we also have our creative ways to voice out its descriptions.

To criticize it, whilst listening to Jungkook's words, I was astounded. He too, was impressed.

Minutes have passed, we've forgotten that it was just a graded recitation, not a debate as we continously had thrown each other's words of wisdom about our artwork. It seems we weren't satisfied.

Judging by the way he challenge me with his eyes, he wanted to know how interesting that I could expound more from my masterpiece. I fought back in return.

"Enough!" Our professor cutted off our arguments. Whereas, our classmates were in awe, never uttered a single word while witnessing an intense scene. "Both of you received a good mark. It seems mister Jeon had a match with his outstanding performance."

Well, I thought the first day would be the end for me to see him. I didn't want to further see him in the next hours. And, I also thought I would continue implanting my envious feeling, at the same time. A kind of irritation, to be precise. However, it was an alternative thing that had happened.

It was dismissal time when we crossed paths at the coffee shop. He smiled as soon as he saw me. And I was quite confused.

I mean, you weren't mad?

"You're pretty good earlier." Jungkook complimented, as he went infront of me. I gave him a look of disbelief, I was doubting to consider him as my rival in that moment. What was that all about?

So he chuckled, "I'm sorry about it, though. Let's just forget our threatening looks that we've thrown to each other. Can I keep on touch with you, instead?"

I thought twice about it, before accepting the offer. He may look like a bad boy, but he's pretty kind. We opened up about random things. Maybe, it's really better to have a cool relationship than scenarios filled with fights.

So from that day,

that's how Jungkook and I began attaching our strings as one.

He admitted that he's quite a playboy. A lot of girls were head over heels on him. No doubt with his charming looks, I couldn't deny it. Even me, I would probably fall.

Well, probably.

So we enjoyed our hours in the coffee shop together, and we talked a lot about in arts. We also dig deeper in our personalities. It was a good progress in getting along with Kookie. I kept laughing whenever I humorously insult him. He talks back a lot, when all I did was to tease him.

"Okay, stop Aphrodite." He said."I think I'm done. I better take my leave."

"Right now?" I asked.

"Yes, as much as possible. Why? Are you going to miss me?" He grinned.

I scoffed."Wait, so you're going to miss me?"

"Question for a question, huh?" He said, sounded sarcastic. I raised an eyebrow with a questioning look. But he shook his head and added, "I was expecting a yes as an answer, therefore, a yes for a yes."

"What do you mean?" I asked in confusion.

"Because I'd miss you too, if you do."
