Chapter 10

Day 1 Part 5 - "Love is a strong word"

"Hi."

Jungkook stood outside the door, fumbling with his skirt, shying away from my gaze and biting his lower lip.

I was surprised to see him wearing makeup, his hair curled elegantly, and his clothes perfectly arranged and worn neatly. This man was truly clean and tidy, more so than I was.

Meanwhile, I was standing there with my hair disheveled, clothes sticking to my skin due to sweating. Embarrassing, I know.

"Hey," I whispered and stepped backwards. "Come on in."

He followed me to the living room and we both stood there with our hands nervously rubbing our napes.

"I don't know your apartment well, so I think you should start with that." I gestured around the place.

He nodded and we both toured around his luxurious house all the while I gawked at everything he showed me. Living in such a humongous, lavish house must be wonderful.

"Living here must be nice," I whispered. "This place is huge."

"Not really," he chuckled softly. "I get lonely all the time so I just go to my hyungs' places."

"Oh."

That's true...

Big place meant bigger empty spaces if you're alone.

"Why don't you invite Miryeong then?"

I shut my eyes, regretting my words as soon as they left my mouth. Why the fuck did I say that? Because I felt bad for him for living alone?

"We're not that close for her to live with me," he calmly said. "It's been only two months since we started dating... That's too rushed."

I felt relieved to hear that since I hoped that they weren't close.

But he still loves her, right?

"I see... Sorry for being nosy."

We walked back to the living room and sat opposite each other on the couches.

He suddenly stood up and asked, "Do you want some tea? I mean, you're a guest here even if you're in my body."

I nodded. "That would be nice. This morning, I didn't know where you kept your teas and stuff, so I just left without having my breakfast." I let out a short laugh.

Well, I was in a hurry, too.

He smiled and walked away to the kitchen. I was ashamed to admit that I was checking out my own body, specifically my ass in that skirt, as he strutted away.

After a while, Jungkook came back with two cups of hot chocolate in his hands.

"Here." He handed me one and sat back down in front of me.

"Didn't you say 'tea'?" I raised an eyebrow.

He gave me a smile. "I found hot chocolate in my cupboard and I remembered how you liked chocolates, so."
