"Free food?" Jin asked Mira with an incredulous look on his face. Any army would know that Jin loves eating. This was evident from his vlog called 'Eat Jin'. So, when Mira proposed to him the idea of free food, he was ecstatic. "Yes, but you have to not ask any questions and just go with what I'm doing," Mira said and giggled. She was glad she had taken the day off today.She grabbed Jin from the wrist and dragged him to an Italian Restaurant she remembered was around the corner. Upon reaching the restaurant, they were greeted by a waiter. "Hello, Sir, Ma'am. How can I help you today?" "A table for two please," Mira replied. They made their way to a table in the corner of the restaurant. Luckily, there were not many people in the restaurant as it was a Thursday afternoon, and the people there did not seem to recognize the K-pop star.


"Mira, what are you thinking! This is an expensive restaurant that neither you nor I have the money for!" Jin whisper-yelled at Mira. She cutely chuckled which made his heart skip a beat. "Calm down Jinnie, just follow my lead." The waiter came and put down a menu on their table along with breadsticks and a cheese dip. Mira dug into the food. "Will you not have any?" She asked Jin. He hesitantly took a breadstick and ate it. But once the flavor of the food burst in his mouth, all his hesitation was gone and he found himself going back for another one.


 Mira put on an act of looking through the menu and told Jin to do the same. The breadsticks were over in a few minutes and the waiter came to their table again. "Are you ready to order ma'am, sir?". Jin looked at Mira with a worried look which Mira took no notice of. "We're not able to decide, everything sounds so good. The chefs are soo good here and so is the service. Can you please give us some more time to decide? Also can you please get some more breadsticks?" Mira innocently looked at the waiter. "Of course, ma'am," The waiter said, trying to hide the smirk after hearing the praise.


"Mira seriously, what are you trying to do?" Jin whisper yelled at her again. "Just calm down Jinnie!". The second set of the delicious breadsticks had been brought and finished in just a few minutes. Once they were done, Mira whispered to him "Jin, call my phone." "What?!" Jin asked, shocked at her odd request. "Just call it for heavens' sake!" Mira whisper-yelled. "Okay-okay!" Jin did as she told him to. When Mira heard the phone ring, she declined the call but started to speak into her phone. "What! Hospital! Yeah Yeah, we'll be there." Jin, now understanding what she was trying to do continued the act. He put on a worried look on his face and said to Mira, "Come on Mi! We should go!" They both started to walk-run towards the exit of the restaurant. They barely made it to the exit, when they burst out into laughter.


"Yah! Come Back! Pay for the Breadsticks! CHEAP IDIOTS!!" They heard the waiter scream at them. "Run Jinnie!" They both started running as fast as their legs could carry them, bumping into people that came in their way. They finally stopped when they reached a park and realized that they had lost the chasing waiter. They both looked at each other and cracked up, stopping only to start again after looking at each other. They both lay on the grass as they gradually got control of their emotions.


"Mi, you are friggin crazy!" Jin remarked, looking up at the sky from his sleeping position. Mira giggled at this. "Well Jinnie, you are lucky you got to see this side of me. Not many people get to see it," Mira said with a huge smile on her face. "Well, I'm glad you felt comfortable enough to share it with me Mi," Jin said bringing a grin to both their faces.


Jin reached out for her hand and grabbed it loosely. He held on to it tighter when he realized she didn't jerk her hand away, his cheeks hot. Mira felt butterflies having a dance party in her stomach and looked away, heat radiating from her cheeks and spreading throughout the rest of her body. Both of them lay on the soft grass, staring at the vast expanse of the sky, not trying to break the comfortable silence. Sparks flared from their intertwined hands as if they were a living being of their own. They were both grateful they had found each other.
