-----Author's Pov-----

The class begins.... After a few minutes...

Emily nudging you and whispering in a very low voice ...
"It looks as if today Sir is in a bad mood ...See how frustrated he looks.."

"Hmm...yeah!"

It was going smoothly...paying full concentration in the lecture ....
until that girl starts to annoy me, whispering and giggling with her friends while side eyeing me .....
First time I ignored her, second time third time ....it was going on and on ...
Not able to take any more ...I confronted them ...

"Nana Stop this!!, it's irritating and let's just focu..."

"Y/N !!!! Stand up!!
Ok! explain what I just taught now.." Sir shouted at me

"Umm... Umm .. "

"Talk more ... you'll pass the exam ...
From where these people come ..just to waste money of their parents ... spoiled brats..
NOW SIT DOWN!! If I see you again talking Y/N... you are out of my class...
Not only Y/N if anyone talks now be ready to get out of my class!!
Now Focus ..."

Slowly nodding you sit down Taehyung who looked at you sympathetically, but you didn't care to give any response..
You never were scolded by a teacher regarding studies...never been told such harsh words ..

Mentally cursing .....It's disgusting... getting scolded because of someone else ......

-----Nana's Pov-----

"Dear this is just the beginning... You have tried to mess with the fire .. "

-----End of pov-----

Looking at your disturbed face Emily comforted you ,
"Don't take her seriously she is just picking on you to get the satisfaction about what happened yesterday"
to which you just humm....but....

Why???? Why me only??? Is it because I fell on top of Taehyung? Has she never in her lifetime fallen down? What rubbish is this!!!
several questions keep popping inside my head ...

Focussing for the rest of the class while trying best to ignore her deeds....

More 30 mins to end the class ...but before it could complete,
Sir asked us all to discuss about our assignment..
While he went for an urgent official work...

First there was a hooting few unbotheredly moved out of the class and few sincerely discussed

Turning ...Jimin enthusiastically said "Let's sit at the back ..we can sit facing one another and discuss it ..."

Accepting you all settled at the last bench where you and Emily took a seat together side by side while Taehyung quickly not wanting to waste this chance took a seat in front of you ..

While sitting his legs were placed in such a way that it slightly touched your bare knee...
Making Taehyung feel his adrenaline rush ... while it alerting you!

You were going to say..But Taehyung knowing the next sentences interrupted and said
"I'm sorry.. this is a small area ...please excuse for the time being "..
you just humm.....

Jimin also took a seat in the same way ...

....
...Time skip...

You all took the notes, and went towards the cafeteria...

Taking the seat , you all started eating...

"Hey let's go to the chocolate cafe tomorrow after the classes??" Jimin cheerfully asked ...

"Yes..." chimed the other two while who just said no ...

"I am sorry! but I won't be able to make it out ....I have some important work to do" you said .

"Ohh! Then let's cancel it ..." Taehyung instantly replied

"Annio don't you all go ... I'll join next time ..." you tried to deny Taehyung's idea

Taehyung then ...

"It won't be fun if you don't joi... "

He was going to say but stopped when he looked at the one raised eyebrow of Jimin
(as in what do mean by no fun if y/n doesn't join us look)

coughing a little ... he continued... while moving his hands as in action

"Aisshhh!! What is with that look ..let me complete the sentence...
I was saying that we could have discussed our assignment while having some fun ...and if y/n or be it any other member like Emily.... then our team would be incomplete and we won't be able to do things properly..... Right Emily ???"

Hearing her name from Taehyung, she perplexedly replied
"Ohh... yes .. yes ...he is right"

"Hmm..", Jimin just hummed while keeping aside his feelings that something is being cooked.

"Okay then let's meet in the evening at the weekend...Sounds good??" Jimin came with another solution

"Yess ...", all you agreed

You all resumed the eating...

...

"I'll bring a juice for myself ...", you excused yourself

"Yeah!!"

I was walking and....

I tripped....and fell down directly on my face ..making my chin hurt and ankle twist... slightly wincing in pain I tried to get up but failed ... looking at my white shirt now drained with ketchups..... Huff!!

Looking around I saw an unexpected crowd ...some faces were laughing, some were resisting to laugh and some showed pity... Among the crowd stood the devilish smirking person...

None other than ...

NANA!!

This must be her doing!.. you thought

Emily, Taehyung and Jimin came running towards me ... ..

"Oh My God Y/N your chin is bleeding...Let's take you to the sick room .."
Emily held your arm to help you get up ...

you tried .. putting a brave face, not showing any hint of pain ... you tried to stand halfway when you found yourself lifted up ....

-----Taehyung s pov-----

We were having our food when he heard something fall...and the crowd burst into laughter... we rushed to the site ...
Y/N was on the ground! I couldn't take the site and ..

I raised my voice ...

Clap👏
Clap 👏
"What an upbringing Clap 👏
guys!!! Clap👏
I feel disgusted for you all ..such a shame!! Instead of helping her you all are enjoying the scene... If you can't help then just shut your damn mouth and do your own business... Bastards!!!"

Turning around I saw her bruised ankle and her face ....

I very well know this face trying to put up a brave face but actually the inner self is breaking down because of the immense pain.... without any thinking I came towards her and my hands automatically slid under her knees another one around the waist and lifted her up ....

"Stay still it will hurt less..."

----End of Pov-----

While they were exiting the room

One of Nana's minions whispered to her...
"Nana, what a change!! I have never seen him take a stand for you oooff this plan went in vain ...instead of humiliating her it brought them more  closer ..."

Not able to take the scenario which just happened before her eyes she stomped off...

-----Y/N pov-----

This guy is really something sometimes he acts careless, sometimes flirty and the other second he acts like a gentleman...

I was looking at his side face not knowing that I have been now staring for a long time ....until he spoke....

-----Taehyung's pov-----

I was carrying her in bridal style ..since her ankle was twisted....and won't be able to walk properly....
Emily and Jimin were ahead of us ...

A/N : I couldn't find much better photo than this ...hope you liked it 🤭😉

Her one hand clutching to my other side shoulder and the other resided on my jacket holding it tightly.... her breath was tickling my side neck area ....God!! I hope she doesn't know what a roller coaster my heart is going through.... if anyone would measure my pulse rate it would cross all the limits .... to be this much close to her was only in my imagination world ...I love this ...
But now the concern is that she recovers fast ...

I was in my thoughts when I found myself being stared ...I guessed it's right!!, it was Y/N ....

"I know I am good looking...But don't you think this is too much for today's staring session"

She coughed a little...and said ..
"I was not!!" And looked down

Smiling to myself I kept walking..

-----End of pov-----

.....

After the dressing and giving her medication...
Emily sat with her, while others wished her and went for their classes

"It's okay ...it happens...you need not to worry ..."

"Hmm I know but it was not my fault there was someone who laid her foot on my way making me trip ... On the ketchup making a fake scenario as if I slipped"

"Uhh??
Do u remember who would be ...??" Emily asked worriedly

"Nah, but I am damn sure Nana would be behind this ..."

"She would better get the karma for her misdeeds..."

"Let it be ...its minor one ... she's just behind to make it hell for me ...but she would better stop if she crosses the last line ..I won't hesitate to take the action ..."

"Yeah you would better ...or I'll go to higher authorities ...this is literally torturing ...!!"

"Hmm.... Okay my dear friend...
Ohh!! How grateful I am to get a buddy like you ", while you both hugged each other.. and Emily patted your back ...

.....After few days....

Looking at the address appearing on my phone ... I rotate my head to 360 degrees... in hope to spot the name of the shop ....

"Lily Bloom Flowers"

Searching...

Searching...

There it was ...

A beautifully painted with beautiful colours of lilies... shop just like the name, shaded by a huge gulmohar tree the dainty flowers from tree where beautifully scattered as if it rained with flowers ......It looks so mesmerizing from the outside ...must say no wonders that this would attract customers....

On the board it read "OPEN"

Pushing the glass door...

"Hello!! Anybody here ..."

Looking at the interior my mouth was open ...

Like seriously I have never seen such a clean and decent modern flower shop in my. whole real life...
The room was cream colour painted, one corner had a small book library.., small flower pots were aligned at the top shelf of the huge glass panel.

At the back centre of the room stood a large marble table may be the counter table...
The room was filled with varieties of colourful flowers... filling the room with fragrance and lively... and how could I forget the led lights a perfect touch to enhance the room ...
I was gawking ... when .....

Grandma emerged out of the backdoor with a basket of fresh varieties of flowers...

More flowers??

"Anneong ghaseyo grandma...bowing 90 degrees.."

"Anneong ghaseyo dear..."

She kept the flowers on the table ...

"These are so pretty...."

Chuckling a little she said ...
"yes dear ..."

"This place is marvelous... the design! is it your idea??"

"Umm.. No it was my son and my daughter in law."

"Ohh!! They really have a good taste..." suddenly striking the thought that they are not here anymore...

Trying to change the topic ..

"So, what work do I have to do?"

"I know dear, you don't have to ... You can freely talk about them ..."

Baffled by her response you just remained silent to collect what she meant ... understanding ...

You asked her ... "umm How did this happen like did any incident.."

"Yeah .. they went for a business trip ... therefore they couldn't take 1 year Lily with them ...I told my son a million times that they shouldn't leave at this time ...but they both were work oriented people ...
Everything was going nice ...
They were returning but ....the..ir.. plan..e...

"It's okay Grandma... No need to go further ... I am sorry to hear about that."

"Hmm...

"Okay Grandma ... what work should I start with ...???"

"Since this is your first day just follow the lead ... but wait a second there's one more girl, might be older than you ..will be joining today ...so let's wait for her too and then I'll teach you both ...since it's afternoon the customer crowd would be less."

"New girl??"

"Yeah ... yesterday only we met ...
She was a customer actually but in talks she told that she was looking for a job.. and rest you know ..😄"

Ohh ..might be she is also facing some issues ... you thought

"So Grandma what is her name??"

"Ohh Her name is "Hana"

"Hana??...

"Ohh look ... we took the name and she is here ..."

"Anneong ghaseyo..

My name is Kim Hana"
