It was an intriguing dinner with the Jungs. You get along great with your parents, and you and Jhope are thrilled with how things are going. Your father and his father discussed academics and the subjects they taught at their universities.

His mother and your mother discussed their occupations and parenting. While Ms. Jung expressed grief at your mom's fertility issues, she was also quite impressed that they chose to adopt Asian children.

Their excitement at meeting the other dancer-twin is contagious. The fact that you're a career girl with aspirations of your own made his parents very pleased.

The table erupted in laughter when the idea of soulmates was brought up. The parents of Jhopes were aware of his phobia and pleased with him for conquering it to show Akira the love she deserved. They even wanted to know if it was love at first sight or another reason they met. 

Akira saw Jhope's eyes widen and couldn't help but snort out. He sincerely hopes she won't make him look terrible in front of their parents. Gosh, if his mother finds out that he harmed his lovely soulmate, she will slap him until he perishes. Knowing the story of how the soulmates met thrilled everyone.

Jiwoo was very excited. She wonders how his former girlfriend would react to Akira occupying her baby brother's most treasured spot in his heart.

Jiwoo said with a teasing smirk, "So, Akira, did you like my brother before you knew him as your soulmate?" with a gleam in her big eyes.

Jhope gazed at his noona with disdain and wiped his face anxiously. "Seriously, noona!"

Jiwoo brushed him off dismissively, grinning. "Shoosh, you! I would want to find out from Akira. It's not important what you think right now," she said radiantly. She turned to face you.

Your eyes expand upon seeing Jhope's pinched lips. Keitaro wanted to laugh aloud, but Hobi had already informed him that Jiwoo enjoyed picking on him at home. At home, his celebrated status is unimportant. This is her baby brother. However, he senses that the two are very loving, and their parents are aware of their playful banter at home.

Hobi winced and made a desperate expression at you as though he were begging you to keep the last month's indiscretions from them.

You flash him an affectionate smile and put your hands on his under the table to comfort him. Because you love him, you promise not to tell either of your parents about his actions.

Your parents give the two of you a subtle smile. You two have such a strong bond, and the Hobis parents are really thrilled that their son has found true love and is clearly satisfied.

You took a long breath, "Well, I won't say it was love at first sight—more like hate at first sight. When I unintentionally entered their restricted floor, Hobi believed I was a stalker. I had an uncomfortably full bladder, but one of the interns informed me that I could use the restrooms on the third level right away as the second floor was being serviced. I was unaware that it was a restricted area---." You felt his profound anxiety as you glanced at your soulmate.

He took quite a breath," Before our encounter, I felt ill and queasy. I was furious, to say the least when I discovered her on our floor. It seemed like I was being stalked again when I unexpectedly noticed an intruder on our level. I was rather harsh and furious when I saw this beautiful girl that made my heart race. I didn't want a soulmate to crown it all; we half-bonded at that moment! Everyone, even the management and my family knew my stand on the systems pairings. "

"Oh goodness, Akira had been terrified. With only one glance, you frighten everyone. You remind me of the neighborhood scarecrow." Jiwoo looked sorrowful towards Akira, who only grinned subtly at Hobi's sincerity and truthfulness.

He glared at his sister. She just ignored him.

The family snicker softly. Jiwoo doesn't care at all.

"Not funny. Of course, I frightened the very daylights out of her, but Kira, "his eyes were full of affection for you. "She persisted... Even though I was a complete prick, she still loved me despite the rough patches I had with her. She offered me an option, but my emotional state got the better of me. It was nearly too late."

You give him a calm grin. He made a significant progress.

Jiwoo lets out a sigh. "It must have taken a lot of groveling on your part for Kira to grant you forgiveness. I won't be able to." She laughed gleefully as Jordan only shook his head at his soulmate's antics. She enjoys giving her brother the finger.

Your soulmate snickered, and you laughed. He replied, "Oh, yes, I did. That's the reason we're here now. My entire being is devoted to her. She now fills my entire life, and I am incredibly thankful to have her in it. I swear to care for, cherish, and love her for the rest of my life." When they heard several ' awws ' coming from their parents' mouths, he gave them a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Hobis' dad grinned. "I'm happy Hoseok made the correct decision. You two have to care for and cherish one another no matter what. My children are all happy and matched; tomorrow we, as parents, celebrate. I feel so blessed as a father. We're having a traditional Korean luncheon to celebrate your engagement and union.

Everyone was beaming with excitement at the 'engagement' announcement. You and Hobi setting a wedding year excited the parents. He intended to marry in two years, he informed your parents.

You aim to continue your studies to obtain a postgraduate degree and a PhD in physiotherapy. Additionally, Jiwoo and Jordan shared with the families the details of their encounter during New York Fashion Week, their unexpected bonding, their hesitation to finish the counter, and how they both became ill following the activation period. You shudder at the thought that you and Hobi would've been in the same position, and your bond might've been exposed.

Hobi's hands were entwined with yours under the table as you enjoyed your delicious dessert. Jiwoo was happy and eager to get to know you further. She was so bubbly that you couldn't help but like her every minute. Hobi only mumbled that she was exhausted.

Keitaro relished the leisurely supper to the fullest. He was tempted beyond belief to tell his other twin that he was seated around the table with their immediate family in the Jhopes family's residence and that he was living the ultimate Army dream at that very now. 

Instead of making him feel small, J was kind and treat him as an equal. His admiration for the superstar grew every minute. Jhope is among the nicest celebrities he ever had the privilege to meet. The Jungs went beyond to make the Wilsons' stay at their home pleasurable.

After dessert, the parents relaxed on the patio with tea and sweet treats. You and Jiwoo served your patties with the treats while Jhope, Keitaro, and Jordon went to the cave upstairs to play pool and have some male bonding time.

With tea and sweets treats after dessert, the parents unwind on the terrace before heading to bed. Jiwoo and you served the snacks to your parents as Jhope, Keitaro, and Jordan headed upstairs to the cave to play pool and spend quality time together as men.

Jiwoo links your arm with hers and shows you the way up the stairs to the west wing, which contains the suites and guest rooms for her and Hobi. They can have their friends over in private in the particular lounge on their wing, which has a tiny kitchen. It opens to a large balcony with a breathtaking view of the lake, where they could even BBQ.

The suite where you would spend the weekend was shown to you.  Your gaze stretches to the exquisite bedroom. It was pretty lovely in white and Dove grey hues. It's a private bedroom of Hobis.

Jiwoo appeared happy. "Kira, you have to have fun this weekend. It is such a pleasure to have you here with us. I've always desired a sister and have a stunning one." You two smile seemingly into each others 'eyes.

"I'm grateful, Jiwoo-unnie. I'm already at home on your lovely estate. "You say with appreciation. On the bed is your weekend bag.

Jiwoo smiled as she showed you the room's amenities and used a remote to close your curtain. In the bathroom was a little television. Classical music was played in surround sound around the residence.

 However, each room can select any music they prefer if they opt for a different relaxing tune. You were amazed when Jiwoo gave you the remote and explained how everything works. You will love to sleep to the sounds of soothing rain or waterfalls.

Grinning, you unfold your luggage and organize your clothes in the drawers and cupboard. Jiwoo quietly observed you while seated on the bed's edge.

Jiwoo grinned, appearing a bit perplexed in her eyes. " Did Hobi tell you about his ex, Akira?"

You leaned over your luggage and suddenly froze. You faced her and gave her a nod, saying, "Yes, Dove. She despises me. I suppose she recognized our hidden affection for one another, even though hope she didn't even like me at the time."

Jiwoo gave a nod. "Shes' Hobis's first love. Although we all believed they would become soulmates, Fate had other plans for them. Dove is quite beautiful, and she may still be much in love with my brother. She and his best friend Chung-hee cheated behind Hobis back while he was still in training. He dumped her, and since then she has tried everything for years to get him back."

Your eyes widen," She informed me, falsely, that she had never cheated on Hobi and that they were engaged to be married. There was miscommunication. My soulmate's continued affection for her made me feel incredibly envious of her. I want to avoid her because she treated me poorly at the agency."

Jiwoo gave a sorrowful shake of her head," Akira, please handle her with caution. She is manipulative and full of retaliation. To get Hobi into her web, she will stop at nothing. She still has a fixation on him. Dove detested the females from the dancing crew. Jiya, another girl who had also been infatuated with Hobi for years, broke her leg after  being chosen by entertainment company YG to become a dance trainee for Blackpink. She fell over something on a flight of stairs. Everyone was shocked, and she has insisted until today that someone switch off the lights and push her down the dark stairs. But nobody was there in the hallway."

"Oh my gosh, do you think?---" You trail of shock.

Jiwoo nodded, her eyes warningly conveying what she was thinking," Most of the girl's believed Dove to be the culprit because the day before Dove had witnessed Jiya being embraced by a Hobi. Hobi said he hugged her only as congratulations on her potential career as Blackpink's backup dancer. She warned Jiya to stay away from her boyfriend. Because Jiya's left leg's ankle and knees are still damaged, her career is forever  ruined. Six years ago till this day, she started wearing a knee brace while walking. She still despises Dove, and she lost her place in the training program."

You appeared confused, so you can see why she was feeling that way. A dancer desires to dance.,"Whoa, that's terrible. Dove is evil".

Given all the cruel things Dove did to you—all without you and Hobi being a formal couple back then—just because you work for and hang out with the band, you can definitely empathize. How vengeful is one capable of getting? You're doing everything you can to avoid her eye. She is not to be trusted. All you can hope for is that your soul mate will be strong and vigilant against her sensuality and her efforts to lure him back into her arms.

Jiwoo gave you a slanting embrace while grinning. "Just use caution when interacting with Hobi at the agency. She is not to be trusted, she is worse than  a seasang. Hobi had already met you and fallen in love, but her family tried pushing them into a relationship. We are still family friends, but they were only invited once to our home, but Hobi never came home when her parents were present."

"I was afraid that Hobi would still love her after the bonding," you said, taking a big breath. That being said, he loves me without conditions; we are redgold. As for us becoming Blue String, I would have lost him. Jiwoo, have no fear. I'll exercise caution. However, I am not sure about Hobi. He enjoys giving me hugs and kisses. Our feelings will be hard to disguise." That will be a dilemma cause Dove must never find out your connection. Without flinching, she will murder you.

There was nothing to fear. Adopted or not, your in-laws still love you. Graciously, they welcomed them inside their house. As with their kids, Hobis' parents exude cheerfulness and optimism.

Jiwoo winked,"  You have captured his heart. Despite his strict nature, my brother is a really passionate lover. Alright, my younger sister On Saturday, we're going to have lunch together and you're spending the day at a spa with our mothers. We'll come back and cook the fish BBQ while the men are out fishing on the boat."

You widen your eyes," wow! How lovely is that? A fresh city to discover."

"Just provide me with your number so we may talk on the family chat group", Jiwoo added, pulling out her phone." Jordan has joined the group as well. I would want to invite you to my upcoming wedding. After I offer the site's address to my online store, you may place any order there.. It's on the house...or I'll send Hobi the bill."

You grab your phone out of your purse, and you exchange numbers. You saw numerous text messages from the Bells wanting to know when they'd return from their 'honeymoon."

You snort,"Oh, please don't. I'll buy and support your shop, okay? You are a businesswoman, and we are the clients." After you were done, you closed the drawers after you had placed your folded clothing items inside them.

Jiwoo laughs heartily," You don't have to choose the stuff you like, and it's in the house. After my wedding, You and Hobi will be our first guests at our new house two months from now, staying a full weekend."

You smile brightly at Jiwoo's cheekiness. She is such a lovely sister. You wonder if she doesn't get exhausted from using so much energy daily.

Jiwoo stood up from the bed, grabbed your hand, and led you out.,"Come, let's go check up on the boys. I like your little brother, Keitaro. He is so cool and calm."

You smirk. "You have to meet his twin. A lady killer and BTS backup dancer. He is totally the opposite of Kei." You both chuckled and strolled to their private lounge, where you heard Hobi laugh out loud because Keitaro won Jordon in darts. Jordon smiled graciously at the two younger guys and took his defeat as a man.

They were sitting and chatting in the comfortable private lounge, drinking sodas. Your eyes admired the sheer luxury of this estate.

When your soulmate saw you, he forgot about everything and ran up to you, embracing you with a tight hug.

"Gosh, I missed your presence," he whispered in your ears. Jiwoo was back, hugging her fiancé and kissing him lovingly on the nape of his neck.

Keitaro flushed bright red at the PDA of the soulmates.

He cleared his throat. " Erm, I think I'll go to the room now. Shower and call my brother."

You smiled at him. "Okay, good night then."

Jhope looked at Keitaro with a beaming face. "I'll see you shortly. I just want to give my girl a tour of the house." You grinned in his eyes, thrilled to be with your soulmate.

Jhope and Keitaro are sharing a guestroom. It consists of two double beds. It's usually a place where his Hyungs sleep when they visit him during breaks.

Keitaro grinned and spoke up, "Okay, everyone has a good night. Kira, good night. Continue to enjoy the evening. With a brief bow, he waved to his soulmates and headed down the hall to his assigned room. He can't wait to share a room with Hobi. How awesome is that?

Kira's buddies will be envious, and Kenichi will murder him for keeping Kira's soulmate and this wonderful family get-together in this opulent home a secret from him. How fortunate is Akira going to be? He's had no idea what kind of breakdown ARMY fans would have if they knew about it.

Jordan gave his younger brother-in-law a smug smile. "Good night, Jiwoo, and I will leave you. So have fun this evening." He is aware of the young soulmate's desire for privacy.

Jiwoo giggled as she stood in the embrace of Jordon, who lovingly looked down on his cute soulmate. " So, little dears, be careful, okay? Dad will still come and check on you. Be warned. So don't do anything that you don't want to be discussed at the breakfast table." Hobi made a scrunched-up face, a little disgusted at the nuances of his big noona.

She just chuckled and waved at the two of you, dragging her fiancé behind her to the room.

You and Hobi glanced at each other and burst out of laughter.

"Gosh, our parents are so oblivious," Hobi commented with a snort.

As you steered him to the sofa, " We can spend some time together. Tomorrow, you could give me a tour."

As he drew you closer to him on the couch, Hobi grinned and said, "I'm all for that, but right now I want a taste of those cherry-flavored lips," before launching into a passionate kiss.

~~~~~

You returned to your room to shower and dress into your pajamas later that evening after spending some time in the arms of your sweetheart.

Hobi and Keitaro were still talking till 10 p.m. Hobi told him about the BTS journey in a candid way. He loved being in the older superstar's presence. He told Hobi about the twins and Kira's lives before and after adoption. As Kira was always targeted and constantly harassed by schoolboys in junior high school, Hobi's heart went out to his beautiful soulmate, who had such a tough time in the orphanage but overcame her insecurities.

Hobi chose to go and work on lyrics because he was still wide awake. Keitaro was already in dreamland. He chuckled and was amused when he saw his dad making his fatherly rounds.

His dad found him on his laptop, working. He only had his navy and white striped pants and a white sleeveless vest. His hair was a little messy, and his eyes, covered in reading glasses, were focused on the screen. The study was completed in darkness, and only a tiny desk lamp illuminated the area where he worked.

Hobi looked up and saw his dad with furrowed brows. "Son, why are you still awake? It's after 11 p.m.You work so hard, and you ought to relax more. It's the weekend, and we want you to enjoy your little break at home."

Hobi smiled softly. "I just completed my side of this new song, Appa. It's called 'Love Maze'. I promised Yoongi Hyung and Namjoon I'd send it today, which I completely forgot. The verses I wrote needed to be combined with those of three other songwriters. It will be a new song on our Love Yourself: Tear album."

"Well, I'm very proud of you, my son. You, Namjoon, and Yoongi did amazing work by writing all these prolific lyrics for your group. Hitman Bang hit it big with you guys. So good luck, but please don't sit up too late. I love you, son."His dad patted his shoulder.

"I love you too, Appa. I'll finish these few verses before heading back to bed. Keitaro is already, in fact, asleep." He smiled up at his dad as he greeted him.

Hobi decided to call it a day after a few more minutes. It was almost 12 a.m. when he checked his phone. With a heavy sigh, he texts a message to his soul mate. He hopes she is still awake.

"Baby, are you awake?"

Hobi grinned when he saw her online.

'Sure enough, I discovered an amazing online reading application! I'm now reading fanfiction. However, the book I'm reading is really eye-opening, so I might turn it in after midnight. I'm not tired yet.😁

As he sent her another text, Hobi bit his lip, and a smirk appeared on his mouth.

"Oh, is that so? Then you better shift up! Tonight, I'll be sleeping next to you."😉

'Oh, Hobi, you want us to be discovered!'🫢

"Don't worry; My Appa has already completed his rounds. I want some love from Kira."😘

'I will lock my door if you don't arrive in 15 seconds'🥰

Hobis didn't wait for another invitation; his eyes sparkled with excitement. With a swift motion, he shut off his laptop, turned off the desk lamp, and cautiously sprinted quietly barefoot to the bedroom. The thick carpet runner masked the sound of his footsteps. He needed to get past Jiwoo's room. His sister is a very light sleeper. They need to be cautious cause if she is aware of his intentions, she will surely blackmail him.

A slight tap on the door brought Akira's brilliant grin to life. She opened the door wide enough for her soulmate to slip in, but not before scanning the dimly lit corridor for any movement. She giggled softly as she hastily locked the door. Being sneaky and hiding from their parents watchful eyes is so exhilarating.

Hobi waggled his brows as she turned around gazing at her soulmate with a racing heart he yanked her tightly into his arms, and kissed her with a fiery hunger. Her arms attach around his neck , matching his passion. When he suddenly lifted her in his muscular arms, bridal style, Akira let out a faint gasp. They then gently collapsed onto the plush bed and chuckled quietly, tossing the white duvet cover over their heads... getting ready for an intense night of love.
