Jin and Chaelin stopped by Jin's house for a while to pick up his things for school.
"Wait for me here, okay?" Jin told her.
Chaelin nodded and gave him a smile before Jin turned around and started walking to his room.
Chaelin is sitting on the sofa. She looked around, exploring the livig room. It is pretty clean. All the things are organized well.
"I wonder if they have their maid or anybody to clean here?" She murmured.
"Nope, we don't have." An old man suddenly appeared and spoke behind her while she was looking at the photos around. "Hi there, young lady." He greeted.
Catching her breath, she holds her chest. "Yah! Grandpa, you surprised me! You shouldve created some noise when you were there."
The old laughed a little. "I am Seokjin's grandfather. Oh, you call him Jin right?"
Chaelin smiled and bowed at the old man, "Hello, grandpa. I am Chaelin. Bang Chaelin. No, Grandpa. I call him Seokjin too."
"And why is that?" He asked her.
"I just feel like I needed to.... to be different from other people." She answered shyly.
"Then you must be his girl friend, I suppose?" The old man said, making her choke on her own saliva.
"G-girl friend?" She stuttered.
"My grandson has been telling me and boasting about this girl he loves. Besides that, you are the first girl he brought here with him." He explained.
"He seriously did not bring any girl here before?" She was so surprised. She thought he could've already brought Eunsol there.
"Grandpa, can I borrow your grandson today?" She happily asked.
"Hm?" Grandpa knows what she really meant. She is just too cute and adorable.
"I, uh, can't stay alone in our house. My father, mother, and brother left and they'll be back later, this evening." She explained.
"Sure." He placed his hand on Chaelin's head and messed her hair, "make him happy, my dear. You have my blessings." And left to the kitchen.
"Blessings? Make him happy?" She repeated while feeling her cheeks getting hotter. "Kyaaaa~!" She squealed.
Jin came back with a small backpack on his back. "Let's go?" Chaelin nodded. "We're going, grandpa!" He shouted.
While going out of his house, he noticed Chaelin is covering her cheeks with her two hands. "Are you okay?"
Chaelin was still thinking about what Jin's grandfather told her. "I felt like he wanted us to get married already." She nervously whispered.
Jin didn't get an answer from Chaelin so he stopped walking and turned around to face her. Chaelin bumped herself of Jin's chest because she wasn't paying attention to the person walking in front of her and didn't know he stopped walking.
"Awww!" She said while caressing her forehead.
"Hey, you are day dreaming." He leaned closer.
"Yahhh!" She pushed his face away to prevent him from seeing her blushing face.
Jin chuckled and gave a peck on her forehead, "We're going. Go back to your senses, pretty."
***
They arrived safely at Chaelin house, riding his bicycle.
Inside Chaelin's house, they stayed in the living room. They opened their notes and started studying. They were quiet and busy for almost an hour. Jin received special assignments from his teachers since he is absent in their class for several times because of the play.
"Don't you feel hungry?" Jin sudenly spoke.
"Kinda. Why?"
"I'm hungry." Jin said rubbing his tummy.
"Fine. I'll see what I can get for our lunch." And she headed to the kitchen.
"Yayyyy!" Jin happily shouted and threw all the papers he was holding to the air.
Chaelin opened the fridge to check out what they have. She took out the vegetables and placed a casserole on the stove. She began to prepare the ingredients for the soup.
"What'cha doiiiing?" Jin suddenly came and sat at the closest chair.
"Just sit there and relax. Continue what you're doing." She coldly said.
"Kdotbye." Jin said while walking back to the living room, making Chaelin laugh.
Did she seriously fall for someone like him? Not so manly.
She continued slicing the vegetables after subjecting the water to heat. She was dropping the sliced vegetable into the casserole of boiling water when she felt something moving on her waist.
"Omo! Wha - Seokjin?" She scream with a higher pitch of voice.
"Why? Did you get scared and thougt it was some kind of ghost staying here?" Jin said copying what he sees on movies that ghosts do. He rested his chin on her shoulder and kept his arms around her waist.
"Don't waste your time and go to the living room to study. I know you have less time to rest now because of that play." The world lady said.
"Yes, leeeeeess time to be with you too." Emphasizing on those words, "less" and "you".
Chaelin felt Jin's warm breath striking her neck. She can also feel it when he speaks.
"That's why let me stay here and enjoy one of the chances and time to be with you." He calmly added. They stayed in the position for a while.
After pouring a little amount of salt and tasting the soup, she let it boiled for a while and turned off the stove. She looked back a little, only to see Jin with his eyes closed. The smile on Jin's face brought a smile to Chaelin.
I want to stare at his face like this forever. She thought.
"When are you going to tell me about it?" She finally spoke after staring at his face for severl minutes.
"About?" He asked with his eyes still closed.
"Eunsol, being with you, also in the play?" Chaelin said, making him suddenly open his eyes.
"You knew?" He asked.
"I am seeking for the right time to tell you about that. But we can't meetneven for a while so I dont know how I am going to tell you that." He explained.
"You can just text me, you know." Chaelin said,
He tightened his hug on her and closed his eyes again "But I want to see you. I want to see you closer. Hold your cheeks, caress them. I want to smell you. Hug you. Kiss you. Feel you. Oh wait. I sounded like an obsessed man." Jin realized.
Chaelin laughed. She removes his hands and turned around to face him, "It is okay to be obsessed, but only to me." Making Jin laugh. She wanted him to feel comfortable.
She cupped her cheeks and pulled his face closer. While rubbing her nose against her, she said "You should've told me that earlier. I thought you'll keep it as a secret until the play." And rested her forehead on his.
Jin quickly leaned forward for his lips to capture her lips. Chaelin felt herself shiver a little. Jin felt it too, making his hold on her waist tighter. He let his hands meet on her back. He started to caress her back as they deepened the kiss.
Chaelin broke the kiss. They stared at each other as they tried to catch their breaths, "I know kiss don't really tell when a relationship is secured but when we do this in the right time and place, I just feel like nothing can ruin our relationship."
"Then maybe, we should do it more often?" And he smirked.
She hits his shoulder and pinched his cheek, "You are soooooooooo not gonna do that."
