Jungkook is the most respected deputy director in JJ design company. As a result, I was put under a lot of pressure in being his girlfriend.

For example, a drinks party.

I needed to prove to everyone that I'm capable of being his girlfriend, and so, I had to dress up like one. But what Jungkook did to me during the party, embarrassed me and moved my heart at the same time.

It was a normal, bright day, and I was binge-watching tv dramas as usual. Jungkook came and sat next to me and his stomach instantly growled. "Hey, Lisa! What are you watching? I'm hungry..." he pouted at me.

Melted by his childish pout, I cooed in delight "Aww~ Jungkook! Let me cook for you! What do you want to eat?"

"You."

"Huh..? Hey, I'm serious!!"

After cooking and laughing around for about an hour, Jungkook broke the most terrifying news.

"HA?! DRINKS PARTY?!" I screeched in horror.

"Yeah. We completed the project... so the company wanted to hold a drinks party to celebrate... Jimin is also invited. So you won't be bored."

"But... But..." I fidgeted with my fingers nervously "But, I am afraid that I'll put you into trouble"

It's the truth. I'm not an elegant and delicate girl like the ones you see in a party. If I see delicious food placed on the long-ass table, I wouldn't think twice before grabbing them and stuffing it in my mouth. Talk about manners.

And I'm not that beautiful and pretty to start with. Like, I have seen more remarkable and incredibly beautiful girls around Jungkook. I mean, given to his looks, girls all around the world would hover around him.

So I take it as a blessing to be Jungkook's girlfriend. And I don't want to ruin this blessing and ask for more. And I don't want to ruin his reputation either.

Jungkook knew about all of my concerns very well. He would often tell me that he loved me for my personality and for me being me. He would also always call me the 'most beautiful' but it never moved my heart. I would just give him a fake smile.

He sighed before speaking softly "You won't put me in any sorts of trouble. I know you, okay? You just need to go with me and stay by my side"

"HUH?! BUT..." I broke into a hysteria "I... I..." and then, I gave up and accepted my defeat, with my head hung low "All right... but I have to make preparations in advance... I have to at least save you face..."

Jungkook grinned happily "As long as you can be with me. I don't like going to a party either, but the company asked for it. I won't be bored if you are with me..."

I regained my composure and the stars started twinkling in my eyes "Okay! I can do this! They just wanted to celebrate the success of the project! And don't you have a vacation after that? We can go out and relax!"

I placed both my hands on his shoulders and squeezed it with a look of determination in my eyes "Don't worry, my child! I will surprise you for sure!" Jungkook chuckled at my childishness and nodded his head.

"You go first tomorrow, Jungkook. I need more time to dress up, okay?"

"Okay."

The next day, Jungkook left early like he promised so that I could use more time to dress up. He told me that Taehyung would come to pick me up.

Chaeyoung helped me in choosing the most gorgeous outfit. I am forever thankful for her for choosing the dress in such a short time.

After choosing the outfit, we went to a son and hired a makeup artist to boost up my beauty.

"Ma'am, your makeup and hair are done~ you are all ready to go now! Rock the party, ma'am!" The artist squealed with joy.

But I was still not satisfied. "Could you help me cover up this mole?"
I asked, pointing to the mole near my left eye.

"Huh?? You want me to cover that up?? All right..."

As I came out of the salon, Chaeyoung was left open-mouthed "Omg!!! You are perfect now!! Go show yourself to your boyfriend!!"

I gave her a grateful smile and nodded my head.

Taehyung dropped me to the entrance of the party and gave me a cute, boxy smile. "Thank you, Taehyung~ I'm leaving. Bye."

"Come on, Lisa! Go in and surprise Jungkook! Bye!"

But at that time, a thought crossed my mind. Will he be surprised by me?

I wore a bright red, off-shoulder, dress which was about knee length and red high heels. I wore my hair up into a bun and I also wore Cartier rings on my fingers.

I wanted to stand by him confidently. I wanted to show everyone that I deserve him...

I walked to where Jungkook and Jimin were standing and Jimin welcomed me with a warm-hearted smile.

Jungkook was in a daze after he saw me. My heart was pounding loudly against my chest. I was nervous about what he might think about me. I wasn't this nervous even when he asked me out on our first date.

He looked at me closely "Lisa, you..."

"Huh?" I was anticipating his next words with a nervous heart.

"...are so beautiful today"

Telling you guys that I was a blushing mess was an understatement.

"But... why did you do that?"

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

He walked more close to me and caressed my cheeks "I don't like that... Lisa..."

Panicked, I asked him again "Jungkook, what's wrong with me?"

"Can't wipe it away?" He asked, wiping near my left eye with his thumb "Then I have to... do this..." he leaned forward and kissed near my left eye. And my mole reappeared on my face.

I was dumbstruck by the sudden turn of events. Jungkook then moved away from my cheeks and came close to my bright red ears and whispered "Stupid, I love you and all of you. Including this little mole" he pointed at my mole and continued "So don't do anything stupid like this anymore. I am its master from now on. And you shouldn't bully it. Did you understand?"

I gave him a toothy smile and nodded my head "Yes!"

"Let me take you to the buffet. You have been preparing all day. You must be hungry..."

"Right! I'm very hungry!"

"You are stupid..." Jungkook shook his head with a small smile.

After many months, when I recalled this incident, I told Jungkook that I was touched by his words.

He just smiled while washing the utensils and told: "I will like you even if you face is wrinkled..."
