Chapter 17

Jungkook finally confirmed the project with Mr. Park successfully. He never felt so relief when Mr. Park was satisfied with him. He was impressed by Jungkook's excellency in how he managed the situation perfectly.
Jungkook's father finally spoke to him and was even sorry for getting mad at his son when it was his duty to encourage him during his hard time. Since everything was well settled, Jungkook felt like he could finally breathe peacefully.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Jungkook was on his way back home when large raindrops slapped the glass of his car window. The windshield wipers vigorously wiping out the continuously pouring rain to make a clearer vision of the front street.


He suddenly told the driver to stop the car in front of Taehyung's flower shop when he saw the two brothers trying to wrap things up to close the shop.


Jungkook was starring at Taehyung who was trying to hold a big flowerpot with his thin arms which were too weak to lift up the whole pot and whining to his brother to help him with cute pouts.


Jungkook was too busy the past few days and he couldn't contact with Taehyung much. He... kinda... miss him.


He was watching Taehyung running here and there trying to help his brother who kept shouting at him not to help and go inside. He seemed so worried for Taehyung getting all wet while trying to help him even when he himself got totally drenched in the rain.


Jungkook suddenly got down from his car, without even caring his driver's shouting not to go.


Taehyung was trying to lift a flowerpot but it was too heavy for him so he turned his face behind calling for Jin to help him but suddenly felt the pot much lighter than before. He snapped his head to his front only to find Jungkook getting soaked by the rain as he lifted the large flowerpot by himself leaving a shocked yet surprised Taehyung.


Jin was about to shout at Taehyung for still trying to help him but frozen with shock seeing Jungkook lifting the flowerpots one by one and putting everythng inside the shop.


Jungkook sighed as he picked up the last pot. He saw Taehyung standing outside in the rain as he dragged him inside who was too shock to see Jungkook that he even forgot to move and stood in the rain outside the shop watching Jungkook.
"You'll get sick if you keep standing like that", Jungkook said in a worried tone.


"No Jeon Jungkook-ssi... you'll get sick if you're doing like this. Why are you here?"


"Uh?? I... I was--"


"Jungkook-ssi..!!!"


Jungkook was cut off by his driver who ran inside the shop with an umbrella and some hot packes.


"Jungkook-ssi... how can you just run away like that? Please look at yourself. You're all wet. You'll get cold in this case. What am I supposed to tell your mother.? Here take this please, I went to buy this", the driver gave the hot pack to Jungkook.


"Thank you", Jungkook smiled at the driver then turned towards Taehyung who was worriedly looking at his wet clothes.


"I'll be fine. Change your clothes into something warm and take care of yourself first ok... I'll go now", Jungkook smiled and started walking away.


"Please don't get sick..!!", Taehyung suddenly shouted making Jungkook to turn his face and smiled at him and mouthed "You too" as he walked away along with his driver.


Jin was watching everything that was happening in front of his eyes.
"What was that?"
Jin crossed his arms starring at Taehyung who just shook his head and ran upstairs leaving a confused Jin.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


"Jungkook-ssi... why did you go there in the rain all alone like that? I'm really worried that you would get sick", the driver said when Jungkook started sneezing.


"I.. I just wanted to help them... I'm alright Seojun-ssi... Please just... just don't tell my mom about this, she'll get worried."


"She'll know even if I don't tell her. Please looked at yourself, all of your clothes are wet."


Jungkook sighed when he looked at himself. Starting from his hair, clothes even his well polished shoes were already dripping down water drops and the only thing that was keeping him a bit warmer was the AC inside his car.


"Why did you want to help them by the way? I know you're kind and you care for people but I've never seen you doing such thing without thinking about yourself. You always cared about your own health before. At least you could've asked me to help them."


Jungkook thought of himself on why he instantly helped him without even a second thought. He wondered what had induced him to do such things.


"I don't know... I just... I just couldn't watch him like that."


"Jungkook-ssi... Can I ask you something... if you don't mind?"


"Yeah..?"


"Do you... perhaps... have feelings for him?" The driver asked curiously yet hesitating a bit since he didn't actually know what Jungkook might have feel.
But... Jungkook felt like his throat got obstructed by something with his words. Even he himself was wondering about what exactly the feeling was.


"Why do you ask that?"
Jungkook tried so hard to act normal as if he doesn't care about it.
But the driver could only smiled after he saw Jungkook's eyes that couldn't lie.


"Well... people usually do like that when they are in love... like... they'll only care about the people they love. Even I've experienced such feelings when I was in your age Jungkook-ssi. I know how beautiful those feelings are. And... from what I noticed recently, whenever I see you with him, you really look different. I can see your eyes beaming up whenever he's around. So... I just guessed if you might have feelings for him... I'm sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable."


"No... it's ok", Jungkook could only say this word while his mind and heart were still debating to pull every thoughts together.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Jungkook managed to enter his room without letting his mother find out about his situation. He quickly went to his room, took a warm bath and wore some warm clothes curling himself up under his thick and soft blanket. He kept sneezing and sniffling. He laid down with his eyes looking up to the white ceiling as he recalled the worried look Taehyung gave him. He wondered if Taehyung didn't get cold or not since Taehyung was all soaked in the rain more than him.


He took out his phone and type a message.


Are you ok?_ _


Then he shook his head and deleted, then typed another,


Make sure to wear warm clothes. It's cold_ _


He bit his lips and then again deleted it as well.


While he was still thinking of what he should say to start the conversation, his phone screen suddenly popped up as 'Kim Taehyung calling' out of nowhere and he suddenly clicked the answer button.


"What have I done? It didn't even finish its first ring", Jungkook mentally banged his forehead to the walls.


"Woahh... that was quick... were you using your phone Jeon Jungkook-ssi?" Taehyung let out a short giggle.


"Well... yeah... kinda..."


"Are you busy?"


"No... no... not at all... I was just... trying to sleep."


"Ah... really..? Uhh... the thing is... I wanted to say... thank you... for helping us earlier... and... sorry too..."


"Sorry? Why is that sorry for?"


"Well... because... you might get cold by now... You were all wet earlier", Taehyung said in a worrying tone.


"No.. I'm not--- Aachhuuuu...!!!" Jungkook suddenly sneezed.


"Aigoo...", Taehyung chuckled.
"Please don't say you're not... You already are. I'm really sorry Jeon Jungkook-ssi. You shouldn't have do that."


"No... it's ok... you don't need to say sorry for that. I did it because I wanted to. Well... what about you? Don't you get cold?"


"Me? Well... I'm--- Aachhuuu..!!!" Taehyung sneezed to which Jungkook chuckled since he find it too cute.
"Me too... a bit... I guess heehee", Taehyung giggled.


"Shall I come there?"


"What?? W-why?"


"Just... umm... shall I buy you some medicine?"


"No... no need Jeon Jungkook-ssi... I already took some. Don't worry."


"Then... what if I want to see you now?"
Jungkook suddenly slipped the words from his tongue to which he mentally slapped himself.
"Ahh... what I wanted to sa-----"


"We'll meet tomorrow... It's late now Jeon Jungkook-ssi", Taehyung cut Jungkook off with an unexpected answer while Jungkook was trying to change his words.


"What? Tomorrow?"


"Yeah... because... I... wanted to show you what I have prepared so far in these past few days. All the preparations are about to finish... So... I'll show you that tomorrow", Taehyung tried to make the conversation less awkward by turning it into a formal talk.


"Ah... ok...", Jungkook sighed.


"Ok... then... Good night Jeon Jungkook-ssi... Rest well."


"Yeah... Good night Kim Taehyung-ssi", Jungkook smiled so widely thinking he would meet Taehyung again the next day. Somewhere in his heart, he started to feel how Taehyung had made him excited and happy. He felt so contented just by the thoughts of him and how he made him feel those feelings he had never felt before.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Jungkook was in his happiest mood the whole day. Every staffs in his company were looking at him with their eyes wide open seeing how Jungkook became all excited and chilling around.
Even Hoseok was shocked to see Jungkook smiling all day, even between the conference he attended in the morning. He found Jungkook smiling over things which were not even a neccessary reason to smile.


After finishing his last meeting for the day's schedule, Jungkook checked his watch and it was already 3:30 pm. He sighed in relief since he had to meet Taehyung by 4 pm and he still have 30 mins to be there.


He grabbed his overcoat and walked downstairs when Hoseok called him from behind and stopped him to tell that his father had came to see him with some guests so he had to head back to his father's office.


When he entered his father's room, he saw his father was talking with an elderly gentleman.


"Ah.. There comes my son... Jungkook-ah... Come here", his father waved his hand gesturing him to come near them.


"Jungkook-ah... see this is my friend Mr. Lee... Greet him."


"Ah of course... Hello uncle... I'm Jeon Jungkook. Nice to meet you", Jungkook greeted the elderly man bowing down 90° with a smile.


"Aigoo aigoo... It's ok... woah... you raised your son really nicely. Look at him... how gentle he is... haha", the man was pleased with Jungkook's respectful behavior.


"Well... Appa... Mr. Lee... I would really want to join you but... I have to go somewhere. So, can I excuse myself please?"


"Alright... You can go... You must be busy", Mr. Lee smiled at Jungkook.


"Where are you going by the way?" Jungkook's father asked to which Jungkook was hesitated a bit to answer.


"Uhh... I'm going to meet my wedding designer. He said he almost finish the preparations. So..."


"You're going to meet you designer? Then you can take her with you", his father said with a smile but Jungkook was left confused.


"Take who??"


"Aigoo... look at your back. She's been standing there for the whole time. Let her see the decorations whether she would like it or not since she's going to be your bride", Jungkook's father pointed at his back to which Jungkook turned his face to find a girl smiling at him.


"Hello Jeon Jungkook"
