"Is there something wrong?" He gently asks as his face distort to grave worry. He wanted this, he wanted to be with her.

Everything, she thought.

"Nope." She lied, she didn't want him to feel bad, she was caught up in the moment and she wanted that moment with him, that vulgar moment that is not supposed to happen.

"Hey." He softly called her again, this time she whips her head towards his direction and noticed the worry-stricken look on his face, she feels guilty. He slowly closes the distance between them and placed a soft kiss on her lips. He leans his forehead on hers for a brief moment and pulls away, now reaching out for her hand, peppering it with kisses.

"What's wrong?" He asked once more, Chaeya has never seen her boss look this soft and worried for somebody else and most especially did not expect this behavior towards her.

"I have to go." She said when she realizes that she promised her dad that she'll go grocery shopping with him, her worries of their moments went flying to the window as it is replaced with thoughts of her dad. She noticed the hurt look on Taehyung's face but she gave no mind.

"I- I really have to go." She said with a hint of urgency that Taehyung noticed, he sighed in relief thinking that it's not about him. He watches her as she rapidly changes to her jeans infront of him.

"I'll take you." He suggested.

"It's okay, no thanks." She rapidly replies.

"You're in a hurry, I can bring you there immediately." He said noticing her panicking behavior.

"I-I promised my dad that I'll grocery shop with him-"

"It's eleven?!" She stopped her rant and squealed watching the clock as she rushes to search for her phone in the couch, barefoot.

"I'll take you to your dad." He spoke, Chaeya paused in the middle of tying her shoelaces, she stared at him with a concerned look on her face.

"A-are you sure?" She carefully asks.

"Yes." He replied firmly staring at her.

"Are you not getting ready?" She asks which made Taehyung bolt and change.

An awkward silence fills up the car, this is probably the first time that Mr. Kim have driven her home from doing things that are not... work related.

He hesitated but he reaches out his right hand to rest on Chaeya's hand while the other is controlling the steering wheel. Chaeya jolts on her seat, staring at his hand indifferently. He didn't notice as his eyes is trained on the road before them and she didn't bother to take his hands off too, she's just staring at it.

This is not supposed to happen, she thought. She stiffened the hand that he is holding, as if he's holding a rock. The traffic lights displayed stop and he took this as a chance to squeeze her hand, Taehyung pulled her hand towards his lips then placed a long kiss on it. Her breathing became uneven, she didn't want this but she didn't pull either. He continued to pepper her hand with kisses, he loves this, he is happy, he wants to be stuck in this moment. She immediately pulls her hand away to answer her ringing phone, she internally thanks the heavens for saving her from harshly pulling her hands away.

"Dad?" She spoke as she answers her ringing phone.

"Where are you?" Her dad softly spoke from the other line.

"If you are busy and still working, it's okay! Plus your brother and I are already done shopping so no worries." He added.

"That's good. Everything is already there?" She sweetly asks her father.
