The car stopped in front of the Seojoon mansion. Taehyung looked at Yn. Before she left, he stopped her and took something from Jungkook.

"Take this tablet now and rest properly," Taehyung said.

Yn thought for a moment before responding.

"It's a fever medicine. Don't hesitate. You can take this," Taehyung reassured her.

Yn slowly nodded and accepted the tablet. He stepped outside and opened the door for her. As she was about to leave, he gently held her wrist. She looked at him, puzzled.

"Take care. Bye, good night," he said, standing close to her.

"G...good night. And bye," she replied.

He chuckled softly.

"Thank you, Sunbae," she said before walking towards her mansion. Taehyung almost said something else, but she had already left. He sighed, watching her disappearing figure.

"Silly girl," he murmured.

He peeked to make sure she made it inside and then got back in the car. They drove off.

Yn entered her house and found it empty. She slowly walked to her room, where Zoe appeared, looking worried.

"Noona..." he said.

Yn turned to him, noticing the concern on his face.

"Where were you, Noona?" he asked.

"I'm sorry, Zoe," she replied.

Zoe touched her forehead and sighed. "You should go and change your clothes. I'll bring soup."

Before Yn could respond, Zoe added, "Aish, I'm hungry."

She chuckled and went into her room.

After a while, Zoe returned with soup and ramen for himself.

"Why didn't you have your dinner?" Yn asked.

"How could I? My beloved sister was out," he replied.

Zoe fed her soup while eating ramen himself.

"Did Appa eat something?" Yn inquired.

"Leave him, Noona," Zoe said.

Yn didn't say anything and sighed sadly.

"Where did you go? You know how worried I was," he continued.

"I'm sorry, Zoe," she repeated.

"I understand. Please take a rest," he added before leaving the room. Yn took her medicine and drifted off to sleep.

The next day, Yn woke up and saw it was 10 a.m. Her eyes widened, and she sighed, realizing it was Sunday. She came downstairs and found her mother talking to her father, almost like they were arguing. She frowned and approached them slowly, and Soha came to her side.

"Hey Yn, how are you feeling now?" Soha asked.

"Better, Unnie. When did you come home?" Yn replied.

"Today at 5 a.m.," Soha answered.

Yn nodded and entered the living room. Seeing her, Mr. Lee said, "Look who's here, your daughter."

Mrs. Lee responded sharply, "If you behave like that with her again, we will leave this house. Mark my words!"

She said this sternly and then pulled Yn toward her room, with Zoe following them while Soha went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

"I'm sorry, Yn. I shouldn't have left you here with that man," Mrs. Lee said.

"It's okay, Eomma. You don't need to apologize," Yn assured her.

"Still, dear. Zoe told me about your fever. How is it now?" Mrs. Lee asked, touching Yn's forehead and kissing her hair.

Soha came in with breakfast, and Mrs. Lee began feeding Yn. She ate silently while Soha and Zoe tried their best to cheer her up.

Mrs. Lee thought, *I shouldn't let him hurt my kids. If we don't raise our voices, he won't change. My kids deserve only love and care.*

The next day, the boys arrived and started leading the team. Ema joined them, but Yn was still absent. Taehyung was searching for her, a troubling thought crossing his mind.

"I hope she's fine now," he mumbled.

The other teams were mocking them, which made Taehyung angry. He turned to his friends, saying, "Let's show them their place." His teammates nodded, radiating confidence.

"She should be here this time," he added, glancing at his wristwatch.

"Jimin, I'll be back in a few minutes," he announced, then left the area. His friends understood why he was uneasy.

As he walked toward the campus gate, scanning the crowd, he spotted a familiar figure. He frowned and approached, seeing Yn, who was facing away from him. It appeared she was speaking to someone, and as he got closer, he recognized the professor scolding her.

"What's going on here?" he asked coldly, focusing his gaze on her. She flinched and turned to face him.

"What's going on here?" he repeated calmly.

Before she could respond, the professor interrupted, "She came late. Is this the time to arrive at college?"

"Go to your class," Taehyung said gently to her. But the professor cut in again.

"She deserves a punishment."

Yn looked at Taehyung as the professor seemed uncertain about how to proceed. Taehyung stepped forward, positioning himself protectively in front of Yn.

"She must have her reasons," he said.

"Why are you getting involved? You should stay out of this," the professor replied.

"I'll explain later," Taehyung said, then turned back to Yn. "How are you feeling now? How's your health?"

"I'm fine, Sunbae. I just went to the library for some books that the professor told me about, but he isn't believing me," she explained.

"It's okay. Don't worry; I'll handle this. You go to your class," he reassured her.

"But-"

Taehyung interjected, "Aish..."

He spoke with a somewhat irritated tone. Yn pouted and left the room, and he chuckled as he watched her sulking figure.

Taehyung: "Cute."

He mumbled to himself while focusing on her silhouette. Then he turned to the professor, who was glaring at him.

Taehyung: "Didn't you hear what she said, or do you need proof from the professor?"

Professor: "No one can improve you!"

The professor said this before leaving, and Taehyung followed suit.

*Time skip.*

Yn arrived on campus for practice, as there were only two days left until sports day. Taehyung's friends smiled when they saw her.

Friends: "How are you feeling, Yn-ah?"

Yn: "I'm completely fine, Oppas."

She flashed a smile, which caught Taehyung's attention. His heart fluttered as he stared at her.

Ema: "Can we continue?"

Everyone nodded and returned to their respective places.

Yn was scrolling through her phone in a corner when Taehyung approached her.

Taehyung: "Umm, Yn?"

He called her, and she immediately looked up at him, her heart racing. There was something different about the way he said her name. She blinked without realizing it, and he chuckled at her reaction.

Yn: "Ye... Yes?"

Taehyung: "Actually, sign here. It's our team list."

Yn nodded and took the book from his hands. When their hands briefly touched, it sent a different kind of feeling to both of them. She tried to write her name, but the pen didn't work. After a couple more attempts, she failed again.

Taehyung: "Wait."

He took the pen and shook it, causing ink to splatter on both their faces. She flinched, and he shook his head in disbelief. She was about to touch her face, but he gently held her hand and said,

Taehyung: "Wait..."

He took the scarf from her pocket and carefully wiped the ink from her face. Her heart raced as they stood so close. He wiped gently, and she stared up at him with wide eyes, her heart pounding in her chest.

Taehyung: "Calm down."

He whispered softly in her ear, making her gulp. She looked down, but he lifted her chin to continue wiping the ink away. She was completely mesmerized by him until he said,

Taehyung: "Done."

She snapped back to reality and looked away awkwardly. He enjoyed watching her reactions, but as she tried to leave, unable to handle his touch or his gaze, he held her wrist and stopped her. She turned to look at him.

Taehyung: "Why are you always running away from me? Am I scary?"

He asked, his eyes fixed on her. He truly disliked how she kept distancing herself.

Taehyung: "You still haven't accepted my apology?"

He asked again. She immediately looked at him and shook her head to indicate no.

Yn: "It's... it's not like that."

She mumbled, feeling bad for making him feel this way. She could sense that he was upset.

Taehyung: "Won't you wipe my face?"

He asked, and Yn realized that his face was also covered in ink. She gave him a small smile and nodded. He stared at her, feeling butterflies in his stomach as her face flushed with shyness.

She took the scarf from his hand, tiptoed to reach his height, but he bent down instead. A shy smile formed on her lips, which he noticed. She was focused on him, completely captivated by his beauty.

Without touching his face, she carefully wiped the ink away while Taehyung admired her, one eye watching her closely.

Taehyung: "Be careful. Many people like my handsome face."

He said with a smirk. Her eyes widened, and she quickly finished wiping his face and stepped back.

Taehyung: "You didn't give me an answer."

Yn looked up at him, confused.

Yn: "I accepted your apology."

She said softly, then looked away.

Taehyung & Yn: "Thank you."

They both said simultaneously, realizing it at the same time and smiling. Their hearts felt warm at the sight of each other's smiles.

Taehyung: "Why thank you?"

Yn: "Umm, you can drop me off at my house."

Taehyung: "Consider it my apology. And thank you for accepting it."

He said, and she nodded with a smile. This was the first time they initiated a long conversation, and they both realized how much they enjoyed each other's company. He noticed how he felt giddy and blush around her.

Taehyung: "Let's go."

He said, and they left together, grinning like two lovestruck fools.
