"okay, i want you guys to stand up and present what you guys written about each other."

a week has passed and this monday was the start of their exercises on getting their relationship back to normal.

"namjoon you are very articulate and very caring. no matter what happens, you always put others before yourself and i wished that i was just like you."

"okay, namjoon you go."

"aaliyah, on your best days you are very funny and down to earth, you are very energetic, and supportive. you always find a way to better yourself when time gets tough."

namjoon took ahold of aaliyah's hand and folded them together. "when i look in your eyes i see more than just the stars aligned. you are my wife and my little baby, i'd sell a kidney to see a smile on your face."

a genuine smile grew on the woman's face and she kissed the palm of namjoon's hand.

"i know we argue a lot and i know our relationship isn't all peaches and cream but i love you joon, i love everything about you and what we have is special to me. i dedicated my life to you and i will always protect you."

mr. bowers gave a soft smile and clapped. "progress guys progress." the two sat down and waited for the new task.

this was the first time in forever that the couple haven't argued or fussed. the small separation was very much needed and aaliyah decided to go back home with namjoon.

things at home was doing pretty good but something about namjoon was a little off. he always kept himself busy and occupied which isn't a bad thing but it was weird seeing how he tried his best to stay away from home for a long while.

aaliyah didn't want to make a fuss about it but she felt like since that they were starting to communicate they should open up to each other more.

hey joon, how's everything? i miss you❤️ ;)

time was going rather slow during today's meet up but nobody mind since the day was running by smoothly.

both aaliyah and namjoon wished that this moment can stay the way it is but deep down they knew this was only for a matter of time.

"you remember when you dropped ice cream on that little kid's head?" aaliyah laughed. she clapped her hands while reminiscing of the old times.

"oh my gosh i do! i literally had to take him shopping to buy the same exact outfit. it was his birthday and he was getting ready for a shoot where we was at."

"that day was crazy." namjoon bit into his chocolate and vanilla swirl ice cream. the couple was walking into their neighborhood park.

everyone was outside enjoying the fresh air and hanging out with friends and family.

"i don't want to start an argument but i was wondering...where did you go for those two months?"

aaliyah licked her soft served dessert and swallowed. "i went to stay at jimin's."

namjoon gasped and stopped in his tracks. "what?"

"jimin let me crash at his place, i didn't stutter joon." namjoon wasn't angry but he never seen her at jimin's flat.

"how come i never seen you?" he inquired.

"because i'm either sleeping, pretending that i'm sleeping, or i went out."

his eyes widened after realizing his conversation with jimin last week. "were you there when i was there?"

"probably not." she repiled.

a sigh of relief left his body and he could finish his ice cream without worrying.
