"yah jeon jungkook! what took you so long?" I jokingly asked. As soon as I got close i saw his eyes. It looked a bit sad.

I suddenly felt anxiety creep into my spines. all the what ifs and what nots that i keep on hearing are back.

"hey what's wrong?" I asked him, this time in a sincere voice. he just looked at me. we had a staring contest for a minute or two until he suddenly hugged me.

of couse i hugged him back. gosh, all the stress from today suddenly vanished. It's like his warm hug cured it.

"I'll tell it later, how 'bout some omu rice at chen's ?" he said. It made me smile but the anxiety hasn't gone away. I wanna know what's bothering him but it felt like it wasn't the right time. I nodded before we walked to his car.

"jungkook-ah! tell me already!" i said as we sat at our seat. we finally arrived at this sushi place at gangnam .

He looked at me with a teasing face. he likes it when im annoyed. istg sometimes i forget why i even like him.

"i'll tell you haha.. relax rim. we don't want our princess stressed don't we?haha."

he is making fun of me.I rolled my eyes at him and just focused at the menu. Looking at all the teishoukus and bentos make me hungry.

"oi.. you said you're gonna treat me omu rice!" I said as i recalled what he said moments ago. He made an 'ah' and smiled. He is still teasing me.

we had our order yet until now jungkook is still not telling me why he got called at the principal's office. It's making me worry.

"yah..can you tell me now?" I asked him. I don't know why he suddenly stared at me. did i spill wasabi? He had a good minute staring at my face before he pulled out a peace of paper inside his bag.

He was a bit anxious to give it to me but he gave it anyway. I asked him what it was. "Just read it." I don't know why but I felt shivers in my spine. I looked at the paper and saw an acceptance letter from Cambridge University. I looked at him and I felt excitement.

"Oh my gosh gguk! congratulations! You got into your favorite school! Im so happy for you." I said and immediately hugged him. He chuckled before letting go.

"What's wrong? You seem unhappy, care to tell me?" I said.

"It's not that Im happy--I am but, Cambridge is very far from here. I don't want to leave you yerim." it's sweet that he thought of me. but Cambridge is a big deal.

"what are you saying gguk?"

"do you want me to stay?" i was shocked, i didn't knew what to say.

"yerim? answer me. I could reject this letter, just tell me if you want me to stay." he looked serious. what should I do?

"I think you should accept it. Cambridge is such a big deal for you and your family. Don't worry about me. We'll still date even though your university is 5 hours away from here." I said. he gave me a smile, I smiled back at him and held his hand reassuring him everything will be fine.

"you really think so?" he said.

"yeah, everything will be fine. I love you jungkook, don't you ever forget that." I said. Saying those words made my heart yelp countless times.

I saw him blush, how cute." I love you too yerim, Even if we are apart. I'll always love you."

"thanks for taking my little yerim back home jungkook." said mom.

jungkook just chuckled while walking me to our door. My mom was sitting in the porch looking at us like we're some kind of movie.

"no problem mrs. kim." he replied back.

"so your mom called me saying you're going to cambridge?" oh the news spread so fast. even mom knew about this. I heard jungkook sigh. I looked at him reassuring him that everything will be fine.

"yeah Im thinking about going there or Haneun." Haneun? what. don't tell me he's giving up cambridge for me.

"it would be a waste if you wont go to cambridge dear. I heard there are lots of cool techy things that are taught in cambridge." she went on and on about it until jungkook decided to go home.

"mom it's late. Jungkook should go home." I said to her hoping she'd go inside.

She giggled before slowly going inside. Leaving me and jungkook alone.

"i can stay here you know." he said.

i grabbed his hands and squeezed it tight, letting him know that everything will be alright.

"don't worry gguk, i'll be fine here. Now you'll go to cambridge okay? make your dreams of being a game developer come true!" I said. joking about it and laughing. I saw him sigh and flash a calm smile.

"fine. i'll go to cambridge. but what about you?" he said.

honestly. I still don't know what I want. what do I want? I want to be with gguk forever. But of course I can't let him know that.

"don't worry about me 'kay? I'll be going to Haneun or St. Ana University. I'm a tough girl you know haha."

He hugged me so tight, I almost can't believe this was real. It felt like I was in a fairytale.

"i love you yerim. I really do."
