Jiyeon's POV

After travelling around Italy for quite some time, I met a few new people. Kim Wooseok, my neighbour. He is actually from Korea too. He came here to work for a famous company.

I got close to him in no time. He is a great person. Big eyes, cat-like face, and he has great voice too. He would often sing to me when we're sitting at the rooftop on weekends. He is 2 years older than me.

People always thought that he is that kind of snobbish guy. But once you get to know him, he's actually pretty sweet. He has a lot of charms. Before he came here, he was an actor for only 3 years. He decided to work with this company because he is afraid one day people will forget him as an actor.

I personally think he made a wise choice. Being in the entertainment industry doesn't mean you can make money until you die. If people started to forget you, you're basically out of the industry. Same goes to idol, if you got into a scandal, there's no way out. There's always haters out there.

"Jiyeon, would you like um, to go on a date with me today? I don't really have anything to do, so..." Wooseok said, while rubbing his nape.

"Why not? I'm always free. Where do you wanna go?"

"The District Square? I heard there are many different ice cream parlors there. It would be great to taste many flavours of ice cream!" he practically squealed.

I chuckled, "Yeah, sure. Are you really 2 years older than me? I don't think so right now."

"I'm matured okay? Just not in front of ice cream" he said. I then nodded then hold up an 'okay' sign to him.

We went to the District Square at noon after I finished picking up my dog from the vet. Wooseok became really excited in front of ice creams so, I just followed him everywhere he wanna go.

"When are you planning to come back to Korea? You are not gonna stay here forever, right?" he asked. We were sitting on a mat on the grass ground watching the moon.

"No. I'll go back soon. Maybe in a few weeks. Jimin has been pestering me to go back because he's lonely. Why'd you ask?" I replied while licking my chocolate chip ice cream.

"Nothing, I'm just curious." he smiled slightly.

"Really? Then how about you? You don't wanna go back to Korea anymore?" It's my turn to ask.

It's been a while since he's here too. He can choose whether to renew his contract with the company or not. With his working experience here, I bet all famous companies in Korea would want him as an employee.

"No. I want to stay here. Italy is a beautiful place. I want to renew my contract with the company for the next 5 years. Later, I will consider if I want to go back or not. We can meet again there. Don't act as if you don't know me in the future. Promise?" he said, showing me his pinky finger and thumb as a promise sign.

I linked my pinky and thumb with his and smiled. He chuckled and talk about how childish he is right now. I think he's high on sugar.

"REALLY? WHEN? I CAN PICK YOU UP AT THE AIRPORT! JUST TELL ME WHEN. I'LL BE THERE IN A HEARTBEAT." Jimin shouted. We were face timing each other and I told him about my plan.

"Jimin, that's song lyrics. No, it's okay. I can handle. We will meet at home. I'll be home on 6th Jan. Don't lock the door." I said, reminding him.

"Noted, sister. I'll get off work early that day. Wait for me okay? Can't wait to see you. I missed you. I don't have anyone to hug and watch cartoons with," he pouted looking at the screen.

"Yeah yeah, I'll accompany you to watch the new episode of Spongebob Squarepants later. But you need to cook for me my favourite when I got back." You said, earning a scream from him. I bet he's excited to watch cartoon than to have me back at home.

Typical Park Jimin.

I'm reminded of something, "Jimin, um have you seen Changkyun around?" you breathed out and look at Jimin through the screen in anticipation.

He answered, "There's an article saying that the company is lying about his relationship, and

And his next words made you shocked,

"He's sick. The members met me and asked me for you."
