"a letter?" jungkook asks, taken aback by the envelope tzuyu gave him. it was monday night and they had just gotten home from school since exam week was coming up.

he starts to open it, feeling giddy,

"NO!" tzuyu screams making him stop, "read it at home," she blushes, tzuyu had poured her feelings out to it last night. she'd end up getting embarrassed again

"okay bye," tzuyu closes the door on jungkook, leaving a wide grin on his face. he carefully opens the envelope, waves at the surveillance camera and reads it silently in front of her house,

dear jeon jungkook,

I'm not the type to be expressive of my thoughts, or relay it through speaking. I don't believe in communicating it verbally as I feel that once I say it, it leaves my mouth and gets lost in the oblivion forever. it only hangs in the air temporarily.

so here I write, my feelings for you. my proof of my love on paper.

my mom once mentioned to me that she and dad- exchanged love letters when they missed each other. I guess I'll carry on that old tradition.

I think I haven't said enough when I confessed my feelings that night, and I wanted to give a reminder that you really mean a lot to me.

though, i'm always snarky and cold, you managed to melt the ice within.

I want to express gratitude for everything you've done.

for helping me up at the airport, where I was on the floor tripped by your lovely friend, yoongi. (this is where it all began)

for the free ice cream at the parlor where I forgot to put money in my wallet.

for bringing me to the clinic where I momentarily lost consciousness. (you were always there to save me.)

next thing I know, these small encounters led to something much more substantial, which brought us closer to one another。

for being with me on that rainy night. when all had been so tough and difficult to accept everything at that moment, when the past had come to haunt me again, you were there to hold me, cushioning my fall.

I was surprised when I let myself be vulnerable around you. at first, I felt exposed. yet soon, you become the solace I now seek for when I'm down. the sanctuary I go to when I need comfort。

you taught me that it was okay to cry and sometimes show my weakest sides. with you, I was able to open up more. (lean on me a little bit more too, won't you? your girlfriend will be here to cheer you up! )

and for putting up with me until now.

there are countless things I am grateful for, and this is just the gist of it. I hope you know that I'm trying to give back the extent of your love. and though I won't always be the most affectionate and expressive, I feel that my cold persona will finally be gone once and for all when you've given me enough time.

now I can say this without stuttering, or covering my face. I'm saying this from the very bottom of my heart, and this letter will be evidence of how much I love you and will love you.

read this when you miss me, or when I've become awfully stubborn.

I love you, jungkook.

I'm not the best at expressing it, and I feel like I express it better with the punches I give you.

but I love you truly, and forever.
