CONTRACT MARRIAGE ||KookV||

EXTRA

Jeon Jungkook 

Five years ago, Jungkook saw Taehyung for the first time. Back then, a friend of his hosted a youth web-game competition, and had sent him, Yoongi and Hoesok, invitations. Having no significant interest in that contest, he attended the event nonetheless, since his friend was the one who had sent him the invite.

At the venue for the event, Jungkook's attention was divided between the competition itself, a chattering Yoongi, and the documents in his hands.
"Hey ey ey, you came here to watch the contest. You don't have to worry about work all the time, you know!" Yoongi poked Jungkook, "Look at how much effort our country's little flowers are putting into bettering themselves. You should show a bit of enthusiasm too, and give them a little encouragement."

Jungkook continued to write notes on the documents to highlight the areas which needed modifications, not even attempting to lift his head as he responded: "I'll leave the matter of giving encouragement to you, with my share included as well."

"Tch, you're such a dull man." Yoongi humphed.
Yet a short while later, he poked Jungkook again, saying, "The creativity of the one from this group's is pretty darn good! Although their technical know-how is inadequate; creativity-wise, they're more original and bold."

"Mn, courageous indeed," Jungkook said effortlessly.

"You didn't even look, so how can you say it was courageous," Yoongi spat.

"And you're talking as if you can read and understand code," Jungkook retorted.

"Why am I even still asking you?" Yoongi turned towards the presenter on the stage after he spoke, gesturing that he had a question to ask.

As friends of the investor, Jungkook and Yoongi were VIP level honoured guests. So once the host saw him raise his hand, he put aside his own speech and handed the floor over to him. Even though that man did not have much of an understanding towards game programming, he did however play more than a fair share of games during his school days. Thus immediately after the hand over, he began asking a few questions pertaining to the game's plot and design elements.

With Yoongi kicking things off, the other judges also became interested in the creative aspect of that game, asking their own questions as well. At first, the contestants on the stage answered the questions without a hitch, but slowly they became unable to the questions they were given. Prompting one of the group members to ask the team of judges apologetically, "The creative concept was done by another one of my group members, so would it be possible to allow him to come on stage and explain it to all of you?"

The youth's request was permitted and the host asked for that teammate the lad had mentioned to come onto the stage.

"Hello to all the guests, judges and teachers." The young man on the stage bowed respectfully after saying his greetings. "My name is Kim Taehyung and I'm a student of Y-City No.1 High School."

The uniquely refreshing tone belonging to that youth standing on the platform, floated into the dull man's ear， prompting the pen in his hand to stop—his head raising slightly as he looked towards the stage and at the teen, who had just given his self introduction.

His height was rather short; probably not even tall enough to reach the man's own shoulder.

His face was very good looking—fair and clean. Wearing a white school uniform, he gave off the impression he was someone who was quite clever.

His voice sounded quite nice—crisp and refreshing; possessing a clean and penetrating timbre only a youth could have.

I can't tell whether or not he's sixteen... Jungkook thought to himself.
