They went to the nearest park after taking her bike to the mechanic.

“I have talked with your manager already.. she said you can come to work next time once your ankle is healed..” said Taehyung as he put an icepack on her ankle. “And I’ll get your bike from the mechanic the  day after tomorrow so-..”

He stopped as he met eyes with her.

“Can you.. say it again?” asked Jisoo trying hard not to smile.

Taehyung chuckled.

She has been asking him to tell those three words to her again..

“I said I like you..” he said holding her face with a hand.

Yes.. about his confession.. it’s a total success!

“Me too..” Jisoo said with a smile. “I like Professor Kim..”

Taehyung’s lips were curled up as he looked at her.

She’s even cuter now..

His cheeks are hurting from too much smiling..

Then he saw her changing expression..

“But.. what are.. we going to do at the university?” asked Jisoo hesitantly.

She might have to quit and Professor Kim might be suspended once they know about them being in a relationship..

She sighed just thinking how difficult it can be for both of them..

“It’ll be fine..” said Taehyung smiling to reassure her. “The two of us will be okay so don’t worry..”

“But.. I’m afraid that-..”

Taehyung held her hands tight.

“I was also afraid.. until this morning..” he said softly. “But thinking I might lose you if I didn’t say anything to you was scarier.. that’s why I gathered up my courage and confessed to you-..”

Jisoo kissed him on his cheek making him speechless.

Professor Kim is giving her butterflies in her stomach and she can’t take it!

Taehyung smiled widely.

“Let’s go home.. you need to rest well so you can get better..” he said standing up as he held her hands tight.

Jisoo nodded.

“How about we have dinner together?” she asked smiling. “Maybe I can cook something for you at your place?”

Then she remembered about Jhope staying at his apartment.

If her bestfriend sees her at his apartment late at night, he will think of some stupid scenarios inside his head and he will tease her for the rest of their lives!

“What about.. my place?” asked Jisoo biting her lower lip.

Isn’t this her very first invitation to him to her place?

He did drink at her apartment last time but it was different then..

But why does it make her feel nervous all of a sudden?

Just thinking they will be surrounded by four walls and a ceiling makes her heart beat faster..

Taehyung agreed right away.

It’s just a dinner.. between the two of them.. yes.. the two of them alone.. together.. at night.. at her house..

Their first night..
