SEULHI'S POV
"Mom!!" I hollered out and didn't think any further to just drag Jungkook along with me to a very familiar woman with a black graduation robe, talking to one of her friend with my dad by her side.
Hearing her daughter's voice, mom instantly turned around and looked at me in disbelief. I let go of Jungkook's hand and rushed towards her, pulling her into a very tight hug.
"Mom! Congrats!" I wished and she chuckled as she hugged me back.
"Thought I told you to stay at home." I pulled away to look at her face and shrugged my shoulder off before turning around to find Jungkook already behind me, smiling at my mom.
"Jungk-" I immediately stopped when I remembered that the bet was still going. I sighed out of frustration and saw how his smile slowly curled into his signature smirk.
There's no way I would call him Hyungshik now.
"O-oppa bring me here."
Please anyone, get me a scissor and cut my tongue now!
And right after that, a soft chuckle vibrated into my ears and it didn't need a genius to guess who he was. I rolled my eyes at him and tried my very best to keep smiling to my mom who was in front of me and again, pulled her into another hug.
"Can this big baby pull away for a moment and let me hug my mother-in-law now?" He teased and soon grabbed me by the shoulders to shove me away from my mom. He looked smugly at me and turned to face my mom with a genuine smile on his face. He gave her the flower he bought just now and pulled her into a tight hug, congratulating her.
As much as I wish to kick him in the ball, I held it back and turned to my dad who was smiling at me to hug him too. He wrapped his arm around me and tapped my back.
"Aigoo, you look so much different now." Dad suddenly told and abruptly, I pulled my head away from his chest to have a better look of his face.
"Is it bad?"
He shook his head and smiled. "No, you look beautiful and I wonder where you get that gene from?" Dad pulled a joke and laughed. I couldn't help but to giggle at him and hugged him tightly again - this is the life of being an only daughter in a family.
"How your life with Jungkook?"
Dad out of nowhere asked and I rolled my eyes at his sudden question. I escaped myself from the hug and faced my dad who was waiting for my answer.
Hell.
"Well, he's annoying." I blurted out honestly and he chuckled as he shook his head at me.
Just then, I was taken aback when I felt an arm wrapped around my shoulder and I was pulled to the side. I tilted my head up and frown instantly when I found out that it was him, Jeon the freaking Jungkook.
"Perfect. Annoyingly perfect pa." He corrected and I scrunched my nose at his words. He laughed out loud beside me and my eyes widened when I saw my dad out of nowhere winked his eye at Jungkook and made a brofist - as if they were exchanging some words through body language.
"I'm not blind okay. What is that? Dad?" I faced dad with a cold glare and pointed my pointed finger at him. "Don't tell me you're on his side now."
"What can I say dear, he's an amazing son." My dad explained and my mouth dropped halfway.
"First, he's not even your son. Second, what make you think that this creature over here is amazing? And to be exact, you guys barely met each other to call him that."
"If you don't call a boy with a nice and humble attitude who update me with your funny pictures everyday an amazing person, I don't know what should I describe him then." Appa explained and he burst out laughter along with Jungkook, leaving me speechless and mouth opened.
"H-He sent you my pictures everyday!?" I kept my eyes darting on Jungkook with a pissed expression and Jungkook clutched onto his stomach before lifting his both hands in defense.
"I'm sorry, okay? I'm just entertain your family." He laughed again and It annoyed me more when I saw my dad joined him. I set my lips in a thin line and crossed my arm over my chest.
"Humiliating me to entertain my family?"
"Hmmm... something like that." He told innocently and I puffed air out of my mouth, glaring at him with a gritted teeth. "I'd decided to stop but your dad say otherwise. If you think about it carefully, I'm an innocent son-in-law who obeys to his dad."
"Dad-in-law." I corrected and was about to protest when my mom blocked in into our conversation.
"What if we go over there and take a picture?"
Jungkook jerked his left eyebrow at me and casually wrapped his arm around my father's shoulder, "Let's go DAD." dad laughed. Jungkook then looked over his shoulder to give me a smirk and they walked ahead of me to the place where my mom pointed at just now.
I hate you Jeon Jungkook! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you and I freaking hate... you?
I sighed and lifted my gaze up, looking at my parents who were laughing happily with Jungkook and somehow, the image managed in softening my boiling heart.
Why you must be so sweet Jungkook?
I sighed again for the numerous times and went to them.

I hugged my mom for the last time and kissed her cheeks. "Bye mom. If I've time, I'll meet you at home." She nodded her head and soon grinned as she looked behind me to Jungkook's direction.
"You will. Trust me."
I raised an eyebrow at her and she just shook her head, refusing to tell me. "Nothing. Now just go. You've a date right?" My mouth left opened halfway and my mom slightly pushed me, chuckling. I just looked at her with an indescribable expression, couldn't believe the fact that my mom was pushing me away from her.
Jungkook out of the blue came to my side and slid his hand around my waist, pulling me closer towards him. He then clicked his tongue to my mom and my mom winked at him as a respond.
What the hell is happening to my family!?
"Let's go, pretty." I was so lost in my thought to even realise that Jungkook had already dragged me away from my parents.
When I finally snapped back to the world, I hurriedly escaped from his hold and tilted my face upward to face him who was towering over me. "Tell me first, where are we going?"
He shrugged his shoulder off and turned me around by the shoulder, pushing me towards the car. "You decide."
"Me?"
He nodded his head and opened the car door for me before pushing me inside. He then closed the door and went to his side to the driver seat. While waiting for him, I couldn't help but smirk while my mind was thinking about the next location we should go. And trust me Jungkook, you won't agree with my decision.
"Are you smirking pretty?" I was so shocked when Jungkook out of nowhere spoke beside me, making me to jump a little and knock my head to the window. I whined and rubbed my head while that jerk just pissing me off by laughing at me.
"That's so sweet of you, Park Hyungshik." I squinted my eyes at him, making sure he got the memo that I was being sarcastic and continued to rub my head.
"Aigoo, come here." I recoiled in fear when he, without warning brushed his palm behind my neck and pulled me towards him. My eyes widened and my breath hitched as he kept on pulling me closer. "A girl as pretty as you doesn't deserve to be hurt." He soothed and gently brushed his hands against the spot where I accidentally collided with the window just now.
My heart started to become wild again when I stared into his brownish eyes which look so shining and mesmerising, as if there are invented by bazillians of dots made up of stars.
Somebody please call 911 now!
Noticing that I was freezing like a statue, his gaze slowly went down and met mine. He stared back at me and his lips curve into what is possibly the most irresistible smile I've ever seen before patting my head. "You can stop staring now."
By hearing that, I quickly pulled away from him and slouched down onto my seat. I adjusted my hair and cleared my throat, ignoring the fact that he was chuckling at me.
"Stop being so cute, can you?" He breathed out and I hurriedly turned away from him and this time I couldn't hold it back and just smiling like an idiot. "So, where are we going to?"
I stopped smiling and turned to face him with a shrug. "I think it would be very great if you choose, unless you want to spend a day with hundreds of snake around you." I told and linked my fingers together, acts as if I was fangirling. "They're so cute!"
I know what is playing in your mind Jungkook. You must have been thinking that I'm crazy right!? HAHAHA. Lets see if you still can be as sweet as candy now. HAHAHAH
"I'm okay with it."
Wait what!?

No! No! No! No! Please don't! I'd rather watch MAMA than coming to this place!
"Let's go!" Jungkook cheered, clapping his hands excitedly and entered the gate with a word 'Snake Paradise' on it, shaped by using the faked snakes.
Paradise your ass!!
"Come on pretty, what are you waiting for?" He stopped his way and gestured me to step in into the house that is made up of glass and not to mention, where variety of snakes move freely around us.
This is what you want, right Seulhi!!?
"I-I'm coming." I exclaimed and hesitantly stepped in, looking around my circumstance to make sure there's no snake above me or wherever near me because I truly, positively and honestly hate that disgusting creature!
"Pretty? You look... pale." He bent down a little to come to my face level and examined my face.
"No! I'm okay! I'm really okay!" I uttered, sounding as persuasive as possible to avoid him from getting any clue that I was freaking out to come to this such place. He nodded his head, looking suspiciously at me and I gulped my saliva down my throat.
"Hey. Look at that behind you!" He pointed somewhere behind me and my eyes widened since the only thing that come to my mind was snake, snake and snake. I shouted in high pitch note and didn't think any further to throw my body into Jungkook's arm who was right in front of me.
He laughed and took this opportunity to wrap his arm around me, "Chill pumpkin, it just a small cute snake. At least that's what you call it." He mocked and I punched his chest, still sticking tightly to his figure. He whined for a moment and laughed.
"Come on, I thought you said you love snake. We just walk like a metre and you're already hugging me?" I sent him a glare, not even trying to pull away and punched his chest again.
"I'm lying okay! I never thought you would bring me here if I say so." I rolled my eyes and he smiled, holding in his laughter and hugged me tighter.
"Finally." He muttered under his breath and I lifted my face up to meet him.
"What?"
"You admitted it." I gave him a 'what are you talking about face' and he smiled. "I've known from the start that you hate them."
I gasped. "And yet you bring me here!?"
He chuckled and released me from his arm as he started to lead the way back to the entrance, not even bother to answer my question.
"Where are we going?"
"Get out from here." Jungkook answered. I rapidly nodded my head and stayed close to Jungkook.
I finally could breath properly when we're out from that so-called-paradise place and went to the car.
I sat in silent and what could I say, today is the day where I can't stop myself from smiling because having Jungkook being all gentleman like this is just too freaking much for me. His heat still lingered on me and as much as I want to stay hugging him, I just couldn't do that and I won't do that.
I closed my eyes for few minutes and I felt no movement occur around me. Curious, I flung my eyes opened and I saw a never ending crystal sea in front of me.
"Hope you like this one." Jungkook stated.
Instead of waiting for him to open the door for me, I opened it myself and ran to the seaside, completely ignoring Jungkook who was shouting my name from behind. I literally threw my heels aside and dipped my feet into the sea as I spread my arms opened, letting the cold breeze brushed against my skin.
Ah.. how I miss this feeling.
"Can't you at least wait for me?" Just then, I felt a pair of hands gently reached out for both my arms and placed it on my stomach. I flinched as someone was back hugging me but, when I recognised that angelic voice and that familiar scent, I became relax and leaned into his warm hug.
No. That's not park Hyungshik I'm talking about but my husband, Jeon Jungkook.
"Hey pumpkin, what if we race to get an ice-cream?" His sudden blurted out made me jolted in excitement. I turned to face him who was smiling genuinely at me and stared at him for few seconds, admiring every inch of his beautiful features.
His eyes then enlarged and obviously, he was shocked, never expecting me to casually wrap my arm around his neck - me myself surprised with my own action.
Our eyes lock-burning with some deep emotion that I couldn't explain and it didn't last long when his eyes slowly moved down to my lips. I caught him gulping his saliva down as his hands landed firmly on my waist, slowly grinding his lower half against mine. I felt nervous and my heart was beating so loud against my chest when he started to angle his face and leaned in towards me.
I took in a deep breath and clenched my fist.
Here it is...
