Actually, I originally wanted to praise him with, “You’re really deserving of being called a doctor.” But he just gave me a look as though I was an idiot babbling nonsense……..

Jungkook absentmindedly pursed his lips up, popping out a dimple in the process, and said, “Fortunately, I’m also very familiar with you.”

When he was done saying it, he turned around and dealt with his papers. I sat on the bedside, trying my best to remember — what was the matter I originally wanted to compel him to confess his guilt for?  

Because I couldn’t remember it, I went behind Jungkook and placed my chin on his shoulder seemingly lost in my thoughts.

Jungkook tilted his head to the side, then suddenly kissed me on the cheek. After that, he ignored my existence.

I pulled on his ear, and asked without thinking it through, “They tire you out every day, how much salary do you get in a month?”

He pulled open the drawer of the computer’s desk, took out his wallet, took out a bank card, and said, “The card for my salary.”

“Eh?” I accepted it, and scratched my head in puzzlement, “I’m not an ATM, even though you’ve given me this card, I still won’t be able to see how much money you’d get in a month.”

Jungkook put on a very helpless look, “I’m handing over my salary okay? The PIN is the last six digits of your phone number.”

“Why is my phone number your PIN?”

“I changed it just recently. You’re so stupid, I was afraid you won’t be able to remember.”

“But why are you giving me the card for your salary?” My heart was caught in a struggle between wanting to take it and not taking it.

He said, “Because every day, you keep on harping about how expensive water and electricity are near my ear.”

I unintentionally blurted out, “Then go back to your house.”

Jungkook did not say anything, he only looked at me quietly.

I distressedly wanted to bite off my tongue, “I…….I mean as you’ve been living here with me these past few days, your place will…….will be covered in dust.”

Cohabitation is no longer a big deal in this time and age, it’s just that…….I just can’t explain why. I totally feel that this is not good, probably because we haven’t been given the stamp of approval by both of our parents. I always feel that anything we do, if we can’t properly define the issue then we would never be able to talk it out intelligently. Well, I think this guy also has his shortcomings — his aloofness.

The corner of Jungkook’s mouth lifted, “Sorry to bother you in minding the dust of my house.”

I don’t know what to say to that. For the lack of a better option, I quickly smiled pandering him, “You just continue with what you’re doing.” Then I submissively withdrew myself from the room. I scampered to the living room to watch the TV and put it on a very low volume. I didn’t see much of what was going on inside, I simply perked up my ears, trying to listen to any sign of movement.

Around half an hour has already passed by, and then from the inside came the sound of a computer shutting down. In five minutes, Jungkook came out carrying his laptop bag, and declared, “I’m going home.”

I stood up, chewing down on my lower lip, and said, “Drive carefully.”

Jungkook’s complexion darkened then blanched. There seems to be a raging inferno, burning in the depths of his eyes.
