Start from the beginning
                                    

However, she just chuckled at what Jungkook told her and said, "You are just the same. Always have a sweet tongue."

Yeah, right. That flirty tongue! Of course he is good with words but...did he just flirt with the old lady too or he's just being polite to an elder like her? Whatever it is, he is weird for sure.

Jeon Jungkook's POV

I looked at the person walking beside me who kept her head down since we walked out of the convenience store. Why is she having her head down? Is she not in a good mood, is she sad or is she embarrassed with what I did just now?

When I wanted to call her name, she suddenly looked up and stopped walking. I stopped too before she asked me, "Did you follow me here?"

I frowned in confusion. "Why would I follow you?", I asked her back.

"Then, how are you even here and buy ramyeon at the same store as I am?", she questioned me. Do I really have to explain? Wow, Chaeyoung. I paid for your junk foods and you seemed mad about it. Fine, then. I will explain.

"I have been walking around here since half an hour ago and I remembered that ahjumma so I came to her store to see how she's doing. We just met coincidentally there. Is that my fault?", I told her as I tried to keep calm. Honestly, I do not want to fight or bicker with anyone at the moment. Especially not with her.

I saw Chaeyoung stayed still for a while before she nodded in the end. Then, I saw her taking something out from her handbag and I stopped her as I know what she was going to do. "No, Chaeyoung. You don't have to pay me back. Seriously.", I said to her.

"No, I'm not an irresponsible person. I can pay by myself at the store but you just interrupted me. Now, I have to pay you back.", she insisted but I grabbed her hand tight to stop her from taking her money out. She froze with my hands on hers before she slowly pulled away and put her hands down.

"I still have to pay though. It doesn't feel right to me not paying back to you.", she said with a pout. I held myself from smiling at her reaction. Cute.

"I got an idea. You can pay me back but...not with your money. I don't need your money, Chaeyoung. ", I said as an idea suddenly came into my mind.

Her eyes looked at me with curiosity. "Then, how do I pay back to you?", she asked making me slowly smiling at her. "What's with the smile, Jeon Jungkook?", she said to me as I tried not to laugh at her curious face.

"Eat ramyeon with me.", I said as I raised my paper bag that have two bowls of ramyeon inside it. "What? No, I have to go home. I'm a busy lady, Jungkook. I don't have time for this...eating or picnic at night like this.", she refused as she started to walk again.

I followed her steps and tried to keep her stay a little longer. "Tomorrow's Sunday and you're not obligated to go to work. I know this from my eomma.", I smiled after I said those words. She stopped briefly when she heard it but she continued walking while shaking her head. Still refusing to eat with me, it seemed.

"Do you really going to work tomorrow? You bought a lot of junk foods. What are you celebrating tomorrow, Chaeyoung?", I asked her and she stopped again.

This time, her face seemed to show that she got annoyed with me but I did not care. If my tries to have lunch with her never succeed, a dinner of ramyeon is good enough.

"It's Lisa's nephew's birthday tomorrow and she asked me to buy these since she's still at work now. She forgot to buy earlier herself.", Chaeyoung told me and I said 'okay' to it.

"But, still not the best reason to refuse eating ramyeon with me. If you don't pay me by doing that now, maybe tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be a disaster for you. I know you don't like annoying person and I've annoyed you a lot. I might consider to be a full time staff at the bakery. How about that?", I gave her a little threat with a wink.

She looked angry with it but she did not scold me. She just sighed before I heard her stomach grumbling. She looked embarrassed as she slowly closed her eyes with that red face of hers.

"You're hungry, Chaeyoung. Come on, eat with me.", I said before I grabbed her hand and led her to the cooking station to cook our ramyeon there.

Park Chaeyoung's POV

I was really embarrassed with myself when my stomach made the grumbling sound. Jungkook must have thought I always get hungry when he is around. Why is my stomach always make that sound at such a wrong timing?

I almost jumped out when suddenly I felt Jungkook's hand on mine as he headed for the cooking station. I stayed quiet as I followed him and watched him cooking the ramyeon for us. I could still leave him alone there but I chose to stay. Not because of him but because of my hunger.

After he had done cooking, we walked to the nearest empty chair and sat there to eat our ramyeon. I remained quiet from when he gave me a bowl of ramyeon until we had finished eating. It was quite awkward but I let it be since the ramyeon tasted so good. Maybe the hunger made me felt that way.

"Are you done?", he asked making me stopped pondering. I hummed and nodded before he slowly took the empty bowl from my hand. "Wait here. I'll throw these in the bin first.", he said before he left.

"What is he actually doing?", I asked myself as I watched him until he was gone from my sight. Why he seemed to be so determined to make me fall for him? Why he showed me this side of him which I did not want to see? Why he made me have a bit confusion of all the things he did for me? And...the most important question, am I falling for him? No!

"Sorry, I took a bit of time. Here, for you.", he suddenly appeared with two ice cream cones in his hand.

I looked at the two ice creams and asked for what did he buy them. "Just feeling like treating you ice cream. Take it or it will melt soon.", he said so I took one of the ice creams from him.

"Strawberry chocolate. Now I know your favourite flavour.", he smiled as he licked his ice cream. I licked mine and shivered a bit. "What a bad timing to treat me ice cream, Jungkook.", I said before I continued licking my ice cream.

"But, you still eat it though.", he replied making me smiled. "My favourite. How can I refuse?", I responded to him.

❤❤❤

We stopped walking when we reached where my car is parked at. "Thanks for the ramyeon and ice cream, Jungkook.", I said to him as I unlocked my car. He smiled and rubbed the back of his hair while saying that it was nothing to thank him for.

"You have a car but why I rarely see you drive it to the bakery?", he suddenly asked out of nowhere while I put the paper bag at the passenger seat. "I prefer public transport, Jungkook. Less pollution, less spending.", I told him as I started the engine and closed my door.

I rolled my window down and said goodbye to him. When I stopped at a traffic light, I thought of how he was with me tonight. I thought whether he did all these with the other girls he had relationship with or not. Then, I scoffed at myself.

"Why am I even thinking about him like this?", I said to myself while shaking my head at the thought in my mind.

"Maybe he has a change of heart. A playboy don't bring girls for such a simple date.", that slipped out from my own mouth before I realized what I said. "Yah, Park Chaeyoung! You're not dating him! That was just a hangout! Oh my gosh, why did my mouth said 'date'? Me and him? A date? No, he's never going to be yours and you never want him to be yours. Stick that into your mind, Park Chaeyoung.", I said to myself as I pointed to my head reminding myself.

❤❤❤

Chaeyoung is falling...is she? 🤔
