"Eun Ae i really like that guy Jungkook... He is too decent" Hoseok landed besides Eun Ae on the couch after Jungkook left.

"You like him Oppa??"

"Of course Eun Ae...!! There is no turning back now. I like him but you must have told me earlier that he is your boss i was so informal Aishh..." he chuckled at his own silliness​.

'Oppa is too pure for this world' she thought as she saw Hoseok immersed in his own world probably thinking about her marriage.

"I want to talk to his elders so that we can proceed further Eun Ae. Now we are little relaxed as eomma's condition is stable so our financial condition is better and we can afford this marriage" his facial expression changed as he started thinking about his sister's marriage. He was little worried, sad but still happy as his sister will be a part of prestigious and well-known family.

"Oppa there is no need to worry about the marriage i know Jungkook-ssi will take care of everything." She comforted him.

"But still Eun Ae... "

"Oppa please don't worry. You are having your exams right? So concentrate on that..!" She said in a playfully angry tone as if she was his eomma. Hoseok chuckled at her words.

"Arrasoe eomma... Just tell Jungkook to arrange the meeting with his father. I really want to make this thing happen as early as possible"

"Okay Oppa.. now go and sleep. You have already took holiday from your part-time so use it well" saying she left towards her room.

~~

"Jungkook-ssi why you are sitting with me?? Aishh...it's so awkward to sit with the boss for lunch. She took a brief look around the canteen and saw almost every eyes on them. Few fangirls of Jungkook was glaring at her. If they had bow and arrows with them right now then they would have already killed her. Eun Ae gulped avoiding their eye contact and shoved some rice in her mouth while Jungkook was enjoying her condition.

"Yah why are your eyes on others when your fiancé is sitting with you?" he hit her forehead with his knuckle . She squealed in pain and rubbed her forehead.

"But is there written somewhere that one should be following her fiancé everywhere...?" She pressed her words.

"I want you to follow me...is this a crime??" He rested his head on his palm, his face was dangerously close to Eun Ae. His eyes were staring deep into hers. She leaned back till her back touched the chair to maximise the distance between them.

"Tsk tsk... your glasses are too ugly.. how should a guy stare into your eyes when there is glassed barrier" he chuckled.

She rolled her eyes to avoid his statement.

"Did your Oppa said anything about me after i left?" He looked at her from the crook of his eyes. She nodded in response.

"What did he said?? I am sure he must have complimented me for my looks" he pulled his collar proudly. She laughed at his statement and decided to tease him.

"Oppa said you look okay..!" He was quite disappointed by her statement. He was anticipating that she would praise him and so on.

"Yah... Seriously only that much??" He sighed and turned his head away from her in frustration but something struck his mind and he smirked.

"Well i like your Oppa but he looks like-" he stopped to check her reaction.

"Jungkook-ssi don't talk anything about my Oppa's look...!!" Her tone was furious and her eyes were shooting draggers at him. Jungkook gulped a little, he knew he went little overboard.

"Mianhe he looks handsome. I was just taking revenge" he said like a cowardly cat.

A smile crept on her face hearing that. She liked how he apologize so easily which was so unlike him soon she realized that she must tell him the truth.

"Jungkook-ssi, my Oppa likes you...!! He said you are so handsome"

His expressions changed and he let out his bunny smile.

"I know.. nobody can resists my charm" he smiled and dusted an imaginary dirt from his shirt.

"Whatever... but i still hate you Jungkook-ssi" she stick out her tongue at him. Later did she realise what she have done when his expression changes to shocked one.

"Sorry... " She mumbled but loud enough to be heard.

"Cute .." he said under breathe.

"What??"

"Nothing Eun Ae just eat...!!"

She scrunch her nose and started eating but then her oppa's words echoed in her ears.

"Jungkook-ssi actually my Oppa was telling me to ask you to arrange the meeting with your father." She was hesitating to tell him as she knew there was some serious problems between Jungkook and his father.

"I will talk to noona and appa." He said. His expression tensed up.

"Arraseo...!!"

"Jungkook Oppa~~"

'Oh no... This voice... i hate this already' she thought.

They raised their heads to see Erin standing near Jungkook. She was grinning from ear to ear while her fingers were caressing his shoulder above the shirt.

"Erin you..?? What are you doing here?" Jungkook mouthed and look around to see if anybody especially his noona is looking at them or not.

"Oppa what happened??" She cooed.

'Aish.. i will really smack her face one day.. geez these girls and their aegyo' she thought.

Jungkook pushed her hands off him.

"Erin i will meet you in the cabin okay? now go" he said in low voice.

"Oppa you can sit with her in the canteen infront of everybody while you want to meet me inside the cabin? Why so injustice? Am i nothing to you?" She said and clinged to him.

'tsk tsk she will be ruining everything' Eun Ae thought.

"Erin i will talk to you in the cabin arraseo now go or else oppa will punish you... " He clenched his teeth while showing zero expression on his face. He made sure not to make scene infront of the people.

"Arraseo Oppa" saying she went.

Jungkook turned his head towards Eun Ae and saw her judging him hard.

"What??" He asked as she wasn't saying anything.

She rolled her eyes in response.

~~

Jungkook prepared himself and made his way towards his father's cabin. The relation between him and his father wasn't that good but still he need to face him atleast for a year.

He knocked the door and his father told him to enter.

Jungkook saw him smiling at him.

'Wait he is smiling??' he thought. Jungkook was not use to his father's smile as he has always received his wrath.

'It must be due to the marriage' he thought.

"Jungkook sit.." Mr. Jeon ordered and Jungkook took the empty seat infront of him.

"What happen Jungkook any problem??" He asked as he wrapped his work to listen to his son.

"Yes appa.." he fiddled his finger and rubbed his sweaty palm. This was something serious and he was not use this.

"Actually i met Eun Ae's Oppa yesterday. The meeting went well but now he wants to meet you and noona so that he can arrange and talk about the marriage and related stuffs" he said.

Mr. Jeon rested his back on the chair. His eyes turned warm and glowy.

"Arraseo Jungkook-ah lets meet them this weekend. I am really impressed..! the way you are taking interest in your marriage and related things it's just marvelous" he joint his hands together and rubbed it to create the warmth as he looked at his grown up son.

"Yeah.." is the only thing he was able to say.

There was few minutes of awkward silences between them and Jungkook felt uneasy in his father's presences. They were just sitting and sharing glances with each other. Mr. Jeon was looking at Jungkook admiring how much he have changed after so many ups and downs. He was happy that finally Jungkook is going to settle and will make a family. After the death of Jungkook's mother he changed and there was nobody who can manipulate him. His behaviour turned worst after 'that' incident while the death of his mother played a crucial role of making it even worst. They never thought that they will be able to bring the old Jungkook back, the cheerful but serious one who would think about others before himself. Mr. Jeon, Rhea and his friends were unable to control him but still they were happy that atleast he is still in contact with them. Mr. Jeon knows how much he misses his mother who was a role model for him. He always thought that a girl which is like his mother can be able to change him and he thinks that Eun Ae is the one.

"Fine then is there anything you want to ask or say??" Mr. Jeon asked breaking the silences as it was awkward for him too. He has never talked with his son on serious matter from many years except for this will and marriage thing. Many time he thinks that this lack of communication had made them miles apart.

"No no..." Jungkook said and got up from the seat realizing that he should be leaving before the things get more awkward.

He made his way towards his cabin.

He opened his cabin's door and saw his sister sitting on the couch, reading newpaper.

She raised her head when she felt his presences in the cabin. She smiled at him and kept the newspaper aside.

Jungkook was annoyed to see his sister in the cabin in his absences but his anger faded due to her smile. It was a warm and sincere smile. He missed her smile so much, he felt that from all these years he was only living for her smile. Throughout these years all she did was taunting and mocking him. There were times when Jungkook use to hate her but today was something different.

"Noona what are you doing here?" He said as he walked towards her and sat besides her on the couch.

"Nothing Jungkook i just wanted to talk to you and Eun Ae"

'What she wants to talk?? Did Eun Ae told her about the contract or it's Jin hyung?' he thought. He looked at her as she was smiling.

'It doesn't looks like she knows everything. Am i assuming things??" He thought.

"About what noona??" Jungkook asked nervously.

"Nothing serious Jungkook. I just thought that i want to see you both together and have coffee with you" she patted his shoulder. She was happy to see her brother's expression which was nervous and serious right now.

Just then the door opened and Eun Ae entered.

Her eyes were fixed on Jungkook who was watching her as she made her way towards the couch which was infront of Jungkook. She felt little shy as these days his eyes would be glued to her making her uncomfortable to survive.

"Eun Ae i am glad you came. I know you are too busy these days as my useless brother keeps on giving you work and in guess he even gives you his own work" she mocked both of them and giggled while Jungkook and Eun Ae were expressionless watching her.

"No it's fine unnie. I am sorry, you were waiting for me" she said.

"So noona what do you want to ask or say?" Jungkook spilled as he was eager to know the reason.

"Well i was thinking about your wedding. I am really eager for the marriage and shopping wow..! we will really enjoy this. Aishh.. i am such a pabo... but seriously kookie-ah i would really love to arrange everything for you both...." She let out a smile as she switched her gaze from Eun Ae to Jungkook.

'kookie-ah..?? Did she just called me kookie-ah?? Oh gwad holy shit...!! My ears were longing to be called kookie from noona..!' he thought as he smiled in satisfaction. It was years since she called him kookie. He was happy as he realized things were going well firstly, his Appa was treating him well secondly his noona was treating him like before. Unknowingly, he felt like a complete family.... As if the broken Jeon family is back. He thought that he will be able to be happy with his family like before.

"Well i have just talked with Appa and he said he will be meeting Hoseok hyung at this weekend" Jungkook added still smiling like a crazy.

"Who is Hoseok??" Rhea asked as she was not knowing about Eun Ae's brother.

Eun Ae was about to say but Jungkook interrupted keeping her in awkward position with mouth open.

"Noona he is Eun Ae's Oppa"

"Okay.. great then let's meet this weekend...." She clapped in excitement but her excitement faded when she saw Eun Ae staring at Jungkook.

"Cha...i guess i am third wheel in this cabin....!!" she got up.

"Unnie it's fine you can wait...!!" Eun Ae said blushing and avoided Jungkook as he was staring at her unaware about what just happened.

"No Eun Ae. I have some work". Eun Ae greeted her and she started walking towards the door.

"Jungkook i will be meeting Jin Oppa do you want to tell him anything??" Rhea asked before closing the door on which Jungkook shook his head.

"Arraseo" she went closing the door behind her back.

"Who is Jin Oppa?" Eun Ae asked as she had never heard about this name before.

"Eomma..!"

"What??" She raised her eyebrows.

"Just kidding Jin hyung is my friend" he showed his bunny teeth.

"Your noona seems to be very happy about this marriage but somehow i fell guilty for this" Eun Ae sat on the chair, her face was gloomy as she was immersed in the guilt.

"It' fine Eun Ae..! I have a year in my hand and i think i can change their views about me. I hope they will understand me" he said.

"But still-"

"Eun Ae... Please don't spoil anything now. We have came so far and now it's just a few more steps. Right now i am happy and i want to enjoy this thing. My family is with me for which i was longing for and i don't want to hurt them" he glared at her.

"Okay" was the only thing she was able to say.

Deep inside she agreed. She remembered how happy her own brother was after meeting Jungkook also she saw the changes in the relationship of Jungkook with Mr. Jeon and Rhea. She knew her one mistake can hurt 3 hearts and also the main motive behind the marriage i.e, her mother's treatment will be affected.

She looked at Jungkook whose eyes were fixed on the laptop screen.

'Why i think that he is already changing...??' she thought.
