Ilhoon's POV

"Why? What is wrong with my clothes?"
"Nothing. You look like an idol. Idol/BTOB Jung Ilhoon?"
"Is it a compliment or??"

Our usual convo while driving her home.

"Then tell me what should your boyfriend wear. The Jung Ilhoon boyfriend look."

I really love her surprised and flushed face. Her expression can't even deny what she really feels.

"No. Everything you wear suits you."

And now it is her turn. This girl seriously amaze me everytime.

I can still remember that day. I was waiting for my cousin. Suddenly I heard noises coming from Sungjae's room but I cant clearly see cause there is a wall blocking Sungjae's door.

I was shock to see Areum there but what surprises me the most is the way she talks to me. She is mad as if I have done something wrong. Honestly, I can't recall anything that offended her. I was really clueless on why she is acting that way until she mentions—

"Earlier??"

I was hugging someone? And...

Is she talking about Yeorum?

Am I hearing this right?

I can't stop myself from smiling. Is she somehow confessing?

Is she... jealous with Yeorum?

Of course!! She will deny but her face says it all.

It still doesn't sink in to me what is happening but the fact that she is jealous made my heart the happiest. And maybe because of too much happiness I can't help myself but to kiss her on which I shouldn't have done in the first place but to my surprise she kissed me back as well.

"Hyu---"

And Areum pushed me. Perfect timing Sungjae.

Everyone has their playful smile from that time until Areum leaves. They are all looking at me as if they are waiting for me to tell what happened.

"What?"
"Hyung if I can remember I left you like Areum's gonna kill you?"

But I just cant hide my feelings right now.

"Aigoo. He has gone mad already."
"Is that what in love looks like? If that is. I'd rather be single forever."

"Hyung? Is this real?" Still wasn't sure if everything just happened was real.

"Congratulations Jung Ilhoon-ssi!"

I still can't believe it myself.

But I need to hear words of confirmation to her I wouldn't let the day passed by without hearing anything from her.

So I asked her out that night.

"Why do you ask me out?"
"Why? Am I not allowed to ask my girl out?"
"What?"
"My girl."

Her face is really red.

"Go back to your hotel someone might notice you."
"I wanna ask you something."
"What?"
"Us? About us..."

She look at me seriously. There was a long pause, her face is expressionless. What is happening? I felt my heart stops beating.

But suddenly she smiled at me.

From that day I promised to myself to make her happy. No, the happiest. I want to take full responsibility of her.

Everytime I miss her I made sure to drop by their office even before going to schedule. I can always escape and used my sister as an excuse to see her.

And today I am planning to visit her again.

"Oh! Hello Ilhoon-ssi."
"Is my noona inside?"

When honestly I am really looking for Areum.

"Ah they are still at the meeting but you can wait inside."
"Okay. Thank you."

30 minutes. 1 hour. 1 hour and 30 minutes. I'm sleepy.

"Oh Ilhoon is waiting inside? He didn't inform me though."

I woke up hearing the voice of my sister.

"Noona!"
"Why are you here? Do you came from schedule?"
"No."
"Oh you are dress up well. Are you going somewhere?"
"Yup."
"Where?"
"To my girlfriend."
"G-girlfriend? Who? Who is the unlucky girl?"

I just make face to my sister because we are suddenly interrupted by... my girlfriend. And I think my sister already got the message.

"Sajangnim here are the signed papers."

She don't probably notice me.

"Ahh! Areum congratulations! I'm so happy."
"Me too. Congratulations!"

But Areum looks so confused.

"Wait aren't you supposed to call me unnie?"
"Suddenly? W-why?"
"Ehem!"

"Oh! Hello Ilhoon-ssi?"
She looks surprised to see me.

"Ilhoon-ssi?? Is that how you supposed to call him?"
"What? What should I suppose to call him?"

Noona burst out into laughter.

"Ya! Areum aren't you supposed to call him Love? Darling? Honey? Babe?"

Areum coughs as she heard what noona said.

"Are you okay? Do you want some water?"
"Aigoo. Yeoksi Jung Ilhoon. Congratulations to the both of you. Lets have our dinner, my treat tonight!"

Noona looks really excited. She really likes Areum for me. Even before I knew I like her, she keeps on telling me if you don't really like her then why are you acting like this?

She must be really excited that she brings her whole company with her tonight.
