Hanyong stomps over to where they all are, standing in front of Jungkook. Again, they are staring at each other dully.

Hyunmi: Stop calling me your girl. I'm not your girl.

Hanyong: Sweetheart, not now. Pretty boy here and I have some business to take care of.

Hyunmi: There's no business to take care of. Bye.

Hanyong: Darling, don't be like that and come over here.

Hyunmi: Who do you think you are? Bye now.

Hanyong: Kiss me

Hyunmi: Eh?

Hanyong: Kiss me and I'll leave

Hyunmi: What the fuck? Ani.

Hanyong: Oh come on–

Mrs. Yung: Is there a problem here?

Hyunmi: Ani but I'm a few seconds away from hurting Hanyong here.

Hyunmi is very much favored by the staff of the whole school. Mrs. Yung looks back at everyone then just stares at Hanyong.

Mrs. Yung: Come with me, Hanyong.

Hanyong: What? I didn't do any–

Mrs. Yung: Are you talking back at me?

Hanyong stays quiet, staring at Jungkook in the eyes. The tension grows but breaks once Hanyong sighs and walks away with Mrs. Yung. Hyunmi sighs as she shakes her head.

Jongyul: I think we should all ditch the rest of the day

Jihwan: Sounds good to me

Hyunmi: All of you? Ha, must have thought. As for me..maybe.

Jongyul: How is that fair?

Jungkook: If you leave, I'm coming with you.

Hyunmi: I'm not about to get us in trouble by your label.

Jungkook: They didn't notice last time, why would they notice now?

By this point Hyesu has dragged Jongyul and Jihwan away with her to leave the two alone.

Hyunmi: That's not a good reason–

Jungkook: The only reason I came to school today was to be with you. If you leave, I'm coming with you because I want to spend as much time with you as I can.

Hyunmi: You came to school for...you're joking right?

Jungkook: Why would I joke about something like that?

Hyunmi: I don't know

Jungkook: Exactly. Plus, there's somewhere I want to take you...that is if you trust me to drive your car.

Hyunmi: ...Can I trust you?

Jungkook: Ne

Hyunmi: ...Then I trust you

Jungkook holds out his hand with a cheeky smile as he waits for her to hand him the keys. She hands them to him and they both begin to walk.

Jungkook: Now time to get that early releasement again

~

Jungkook has taken Hyunmi to a cute little café in a secluded area. Hyunmi is left in awe as she looks around the place.

Hyunmi: How did you find this place?

Jungkook: It's a secret

Hyunmi: Can I know?

Jungkook: It's a secret, my secret.

Hyunmi quickly realizes he's using her own words against her and it causes her to smile.

Hyunmi: Funny

As they both begin to walk towards the entrance, Jungkook suddenly stops then pulls Hyunmi with him to hide behind a tree.

Jungkook: He's here out of all days

Hyunmi: Who?

Jungkook: It seems like he's settling down too

Hyunmi: Who!?

Jungkook: My hyung

Hyunmi: Your hyung..? Which one?

Jungkook: Taehyung

Hyunmi: Okay..well, what do you want? I'll go in and order–

Jungkook: What? I was the one who brought you here, you're not going in alone.

Hyunmi: Do you want anything?

Jungkook: You're not going in alone.

Hyunmi: Fine...what about Jin-ssi?

Jungkook: What about him?

Hyunmi: Well, he's the one who picked you up from my house, right? So then he knows about you ditching, right?

Jungkook: Yeah..

Hyunmi: Then why don't you text him and ask him if he can do you a favor and text Taehyung something to make him leave?

Jungkook: ...You're smart

Hyunmi: Thanks

Jungkook: Huh..

Hyunmi: What?

Jungkook: I was expecting "Well, I'm not ranked number one in the school for no reason" or some smart comeback like that.

Hyunmi: I'm not a cocky bitch. I can be a bitch though.

Jungkook: Oh I know

Hyunmi: Just send the text

Jungkook does as told and the plan works because Taehyung leaves. Jungkook only now owes Jin dinner, which he's fine with. The two enter the café and are greeted by the lady at the register.

Employee 1: Hello! Jungkook, you're back...with a girl?

Hyunmi bows and introduces herself.

Hyunmi: Hello, I'm Hyunmi.

Employee 1: Wahh~ You're so pretty! I wish I was that pretty..

Hyunmi: Aniya! You're speaking nonsense, I should be the one wishing I was as pretty as you.

Employee 1: You're too sweet. Are you two on a date?

Employee 2: I HEARD JUNGKOOK AND THE WORD DATE!

The second employee exits from the back and smiles instantly once he sees Jungkook. He walks over to Jungkook, engulfing him in a hug. After pulling away, he looks at Hyunmi.

Employee 2: And who may this young lady be?

Hyunmi bows again and introduces herself.

Hyunmi: Hello, I'm Hyunmi.

Employee 2: Well, I take it you two are on a date. I suppose it's the usual for you, Jungkook and what would the young lady like?

Hyunmi: Mm, what's your best-selling?

Employee 2: Well, as for drinks, our expresso is our best-selling.

Hyunmi: I'll take an expresso please

Employee 2: Coming right up. Yoona, go seat the lovebirds!

Jungkook: Uncle!

The second employee laughs before he disappears in the back. While holding two menus, Yoona walks around the counter with a smile.

Yoona: Where would you two like to sit?

Jungkook looks at Hyunmi and Hyunmi chooses a booth by a window. They sit and Yoona hands them a menu before taking her spot back behind the counter.

Hyunmi: This place is cute from the outside, in. Plus, the service is friendly, I like that. You seem very close with the employees.

Jungkook: Well, the one who sat us down is my cousin, Yoona. She older than me by a year. The one who hugged me is my uncle, he own this café. This café isn't really known by locals as this is a place more for idols if I must say. It's more known throughout the industry than the public. Now..I told you my secret, you tell me yours.

Hyunmi: That makes sense–Ah ya! Why do you want to know so bad?

Jungkook: Because

Hyunmi sighs.

Hyunmi: Since you want to know so bad..I just stumbled upon it one day after school when I needed a place to hide.

Jungkook: To hide?

Hyunmi: Ne, to hide.

Jungkook: Hide from..?

Hyunmi stays quiet for a moment as she looks down at her lap.

Hyunmi: From Hanyong and his friends..

She looks back up to meet Jungkook's eyes.

Hyunmi: On that day, I was watching the track and field practice because I was waiting for Jongyul since his car was in the shop and Hyesu was at home sick. I didn't know that the football team were going to be practicing too until I saw them walk onto the field. As the football team was stretching, Hanyong happened to notice that I was by myself on the benches..since I was really the only one there and decided to take the chance to speak to me. One thing lead to another and I was being chased by him and his friends. I may not play for our school but you've witnessed me run at a pace before..yeah well, I can run much faster than that. I ran fast enough to have some distance between me and them and I happened to stumble upon my spot. Once I got there, I let the tears flow. I stayed there until the track and field finished their practice. Jongyul waited for me in the parking lot and yeah.

Jungkook: Tears flow? What did he say to you?

Hyunmi: Well..from what you've only seen, Hanyong has bothered me yes, but in a way that seems somewhat caring, right? Well, he's gets mad sometimes and will tease me.

Jungkook: What is even up with Hanyong?

Hyunmi: Hanyong was actually the first guy to greet me when I enrolled to this school. He was nice to me and showed me around the school. I wasn't close to him but we were friends. That is until a month after when he decided to confess to me..and I rejected him. He was taken back by my rejection because as you know..Hanyong is one of the populars of our school. Then he got mad and embarrassed especially more because he did it in front of everyone. He still to this day refuses to believe what happened as you can tell. There will be days when he teases me but as you've seen he teases Hyesu too. That's because he believes Hyesu had some influence on me rejecting him when really, she didn't.

Jungkook: Everything makes sense now..but–

Taehyung: Jungkook?

Jungkook: HYUNG

Taehyung: Aren't you suppose to be in–wait..ARE YOU ON A DATE? Is this Hyunmi?

Hyunmi: Hello..

Taehyung moves Jungkook over and sits down. He places his chin in the palms of his hands as he stares at Hyunmi, causing her to feel a bit uncomfortable.

Taehyung: You really are pretty! If Kookie treats you badly, we will punish him you–

Jungkook covers Taehyung's mouth with his hand.

Jungkook: Okay, that's enough out of you.

Taehyung licks Jungkook's hand causing him to remove his hand.

Taehyung: I was just getting started

Jungkook wipes his hand on Taehyung's sleeve.

Jungkook: That was gross

A slight giggle escapes Hyunmi's mouth causing the boys to look at her as she covers her mouth.

Jungkook: Try being with him nearly everyday

Taehyung: Do you really not like spending time with me? That's mean.

Jungkook: That's not–

Taehyung: I see how it is

Taehyung gets up and leaves. Jungkook pulls out his phone, calling Taehyung.

Jungkook: "You do know that I was just joking right?"

Taehyung: "Yeah I was joking too"

Jungkook: "What a first impression to leave on Hyunmi"

Taehyung: "Tell her I was joking"

Jungkook: "Nah"

Jungkook hangs up and puts his phone back into his pocket.

Hyunmi: Well?

Jungkook: Oh, he was just joking but if he ever asks, I never told you he was joking.

Hyunmi: Okay..?

~

The two are just walking around Yeouido Hangang Park. They made a pitstop beforehand to buy black disposable masks to wear, just incase. They have just been conversing, getting to know each other better.

Hyunmi: This is probably going to be stupid to ask but..being an idol is hard, right?

Jungkook: Well, it's not easy. It's a lot of hard work and it's tiring but I'm doing what I love. Although, I'm unable to see my family often and I'm unable to do some everyday activities I use to do, I'm grateful for everything. I find it amazing how our music helps people and how it brings thousands together. The boys and I have worked hard since the beginning to get where we are now and we will continue to work hard.

Hyunmi: That's cool. I find it cool how you have chased your dream and continue to do it. It is your dream job, right?

Jungkook: Ne

Hyunmi: Yeah, I find that cool that you've chased your dream and continue to do so. I find it incredible how like just mentioned except with music in general how it much it truly impacts in our society and how it brings thousands upon millions together. I may not be a hardcore fan of yours but I see how much armys care about you boys and each other and how loyal they are. You're all a family and that's pretty damn cool. Like with your music, it brings thooousands together and it has brought friendships between people who probably would have never met without it and it has created such strong bonds between them.

Jungkook: Hyunmi..what is your dream job?

Hyunmi: Hm?

Jungkook: From what you've told me, it seems like you'll be following in your mom's footsteps, apologies if it actually is your dream job. You already know 3 languages fluently due to the fact that your mom spoke to you in them when you were a baby and as you grew up but from the way you have spoken about it..it doesn't seem like what you really want to be doing in your life. What is your dream job?

Hyunmi goes silent as they continue walking. They both eventually stop walking and stare out at the water. Hyunmi breaks the silence with a sigh.

Hyunmi: To be a composer but..it's doesn't run in my family so it'll be nothing more than a dream.

Jungkook: A composer? I must say I was expecting you to say that you wanted to be an idol or a model or an actress or something...why will it be nothing more than a dream? If you work hard, you can achieve anything.

Hyunmi: It's not expected from my family so I can't.

Jungkook: That's not a good reason

Hyunmi: I can't.

Jungkook: If you have passion for composing, then you should go for it. There are certain things that you must choose for yourself and not be influenced by what is expected by your family.

Hyunmi: ...I can't.

Jungkook: This is your future career. They aren't going to be doing the work for you in the future. You should being pursuing a career that you have passion for and not some job that won't make you happy.

Hyunmi: True happiness is something I haven't felt in a very long time, it isn't for me.

Jungkook: Everyone deserves to be happy, Hyunmi.

Hyunmi: Yeah, everyone..and then there's me.

Jungkook sighs and hugs Hyunmi. Hyunmi stays stiff but then slowly relaxes into it. She doesn't hug back though. Jungkook pulls away after a few seconds and looks her in the eyes.

Jungkook: Everyone deserves to be happy.
