Chapter 8

Y/N wanted to wear something nice for today's special occasion. She already booked her nails appointment last night. She observed her nails, thinking what color she wanted to pick: "Should I match my nails to my dress?"

She felt something was missing.

Her wedding ring was in the bottom drawer, abandoned for many years. She put it on her ring finger and admired how beautiful it was. But in the end she took it off and put it back into the box.

She walked to her closet to pick a few dresses to choose and put them on the bed. After contemplating her choices, she decided that she had nothing to wear: "I have nothing to wear."

She sighed and laid down on the pile of clothes and put her hands on her closed eyes, slowly rubbing it.

The sound of her phone ringing startled her. She tried to reach it while still laying on the bed. She answered the phone without looking at it: "Hello?"

"Good morning, sunshine. You're awake." Jimin greeted her with his tender voice. 

Her face immediately brightened up after hearing his voice. "Good morning, Jimin. You left early, I didn't see you leave."

"Why? You miss me already? It's only been an hour." Jimin chuckled, never missing his chance to tease Y/N. "I have to leave early if I want to be home early to take you on a date."

Excitement started to creep in her chest. Having a date with Jimin made her knees start to shake.

"Do you like your present?" Jimin asked.

"What present?" Y/N sat down on bed, eyes roaming the room.

"Check your bedside table then you will find your present."

Y/N stood up then walked towards the bedside table. She picked up a black card that was on it: "Jimin, it's your card."

"It is yours now." He said. "I would personally purchase your dress for tonight. But I think you would want to pick it for yourself. You can buy whatever you want, use it all you like. No limit, babe."

"Jimin, I-"

"No arguing." Jimin cut her off before she could argue. "Alright, I have to go now. See you later, love." With that, he ended the call.

Y/N had her own card given by the Parks' family as she was one of them. The card had the highest limit already.

But this card in her hand wasn't available to just anyone. They are only offered to high-net-work individuals. This means you can't just apply to join. The threshold for entry into this elite echelon of card ownership is incredibly high, as are the annual fees.

It was definitely no surprise that a financially successful man like Jimin had it and now the card belonged to her.

Was it one of the perks of being the mistress of being the Parks' family? Obviously.

Even though she thought it was too much, she appreciated his good yet lavish intention. She was definitely going to thank him later since she didn't get to do so earlier.

"Mrs Park, what a delightful surprise to see you at our store. What would you like to drink?" The sales assistant greeted Y/N as soon as she walked in.

It was Y/N favorite store to shop, she considered a valuable customer. Not only that, she was the wife of the wealthiest and most powerful man in Seoul.

"Water would do, thank you." Y/N smiled. The girl went to grab it right away.

"We will provide everything you need. May I ask what the occasion is, Mrs Park?" They were trying hard to help Y/N find the perfect outfit.

"Could you please show me a few selections for a date night?" Y/N asked politely.

"It would be my pleasure." The other girl immediately offered her the latest editorial lookbook catalog. "Please, have a seat Mrs Park. Here's our latest collection."

After deciding on a dress, the sales assistant offered her matching heels. "These would look perfect on you. Would you like to try these on?"

"Sure."

"Let me help you, Mrs Park."

She checked herself in the mirror. Her blue sapphire diamond butterfly necklace from Jimin really compliments the beige silk dress. She valued comfort in her attire so it wasn't too much, just simply stunning.

"Wow! you look absolutely beautiful, Mrs Park." The dress and heels combo were to die for.

Y/N smiled accepting the compliments. "I'd like to take these as well." 

"As you wish, Mrs Park." She showed her the cash register.

All of the employees found Seulgi rather ridiculous. They could easily see that Mr Park & Mrs Park were on good terms, they were about to go on a date this valentine's day. It didn't look like they would get a divorce any time soon like Seulgi suggested in her latest statement.

After paying for her stuff, she went to her nails appointment, finally deciding to match them to her dress. She drove straight home to start getting ready for the date.

Jimin really came home early.

"Joonie will be well taken care of. Don't worry and enjoy your day." Grandma said, reassuring.

"Thank you Grandma." Jimin said.

"Bye, Mommy! Bye, Daddy!" Joon Min said while playing with his new car toy on the carpet.

"Bye baby." Y/N waved at him. "Be good, okay?"

"Okay, Mom." He didn't wave back, too occupied in his own world.

Jimin was being a gentleman by opening the passenger's side door of his car for her, and then he closed it after she got in.

He helped her fasten her seatbelt and managed to steal a kiss from her. He smiled, feeling proud of himself. He fastened his seatbelt and put his hand on the steering wheel.

Y/N finally looked over. The man she stared at looked directly in her eyes.

"What?"

"Did I say you look beautiful?"

"Yes, you said that seven times already." Y/N smiled as a blush spread over her cheeks.

Y/N felt something strange as the car entered the highway. She thought Jimin would bring her somewhere to eat. But the direction was going to the airport.

They finally arrived at the airport. "Why are we here?"

"We're going to Tokyo." Jimin stated.

"Tokyo?" Y/N was startled. "But I don't have my passport with me."

Jimin took out their passport from his suit pocket and showed it to her. "I got you."

"Why do you suddenly want to go to Japan?"

"I am not. I already planned this."

Y/N felt it was too much, they could simply spend their valentine's day in Seoul. It was not necessary to go to Tokyo.

They entered the airport and someone was waiting for them. Jimin rarely uses their private jet. But he purposely used it today.

After the plane took off, Jimin passed a glass of warm water to Y/N. "Drink it and just go to sleep. We will arrive soon." He was afraid that she would get tired, she was pregnant after all.

Y/N drank the water then closed the window shield. "It is fine by me to spend it in Seoul. We could just have dinner, watch a movie, and stroll around the city."

"That simple?" Jimin raised his eyebrows, somewhat skeptical with her statement. "Don't you girls like romantic and sensational surprises?"

She was a little startled. "Don't tell me you've prepared a romantic and sensational surprise?"

She was actually quite afraid about surprises. For some, it is a giddy thrill form of an event of wonder and discovery. For Y/N it could induce anxiety and stress because of the uncertainty. She didn't like dealing with the unknown.

Not only for that reason, she also had a rather unpleasant memory about valentine's day.

When she was just a freshman in college, one of her seniors in business class had a crush on her. He pursued her for a whole semester.

She didn't want to come off as rude to entirely disregarded his existence but she also didn't give him any false hope to entertain his feelings. But who knew that one day he would confess in public, in front of her dorm building to be exact.

He stood inside a heart shaped rose petals while holding a bouquet of flowers one night. He lit a lot of candles on the ground. He also asked some of his friends to help him. He then confessed by saying that he liked her out loud for everyone to hear.

People could not help feeling a certain mixture of touched and admiration, they thought it was very romantic. Some were envious of her. But she didn't have any feelings toward him, so it was awkward for her. People kept encouraging her to accept his confession.

Under all of the intense pressure, she just wanted to disappear. But she finally said: "Sorry, I can't."

His face changed instantly. Obviously after that, he became the main topic of gossip by everyone on campus. Every time he met Y/N, his face turned sour.

Jimin shrugged his shoulders and looked away.

Remembering those memories, she felt uneasy. She pulled his sleeve. "You don't have to prepare something grand for me." she declared.

Jimin leaned toward her, his fingers were touching her chin. She could actually feel his breath against her face. It made her flush as a slight chill ran down her neck.

"What are you afraid of? No matter how grand, it is only to show love. You would definitely cry in awe then hug me and say yes." he joked. His words came out casual and relaxed as he crossed his leg, making her more stressed than before.

"..."

Y/N glared at him then leaned back on her seat, closing her eyes. "I am going to sleep."

A/N:
If someone confess to me in public, I'd immediately say no. Stuff like that supposed to be in private 🔪🔪🔪
I also don't like surprises, I hate the feeling of uncertainty and not knowing what's going to happen, I have to be in control 🙂🔪
What about you?
