"Do you perhaps want any help in Korean literature?" she flinched due to the sudden voice, she turned and saw a familiar face which is capable to flutter her heart everytime she sees him.

That radiant smile which use to make her go weak was still the same even after so many years.

(Omg my hearteu...!!!😍😍😍

Pleaseu don't tell Taehyung that i am hoeing around😂😂😂)

"Ohh... sunbae" she exclaimed half shocked, half happy. Jong-suk laughed as he saw how shocked she was, he found it cute.

"Yah Eun Ae what's with your face? you look so funny" he pointed towards her face. She pulled herself up, smiling a little with hesitation moulded with shyness seeing her crush, Lee Jong suk.

"Sorry i was just shocked to see you after so many years. I never thought that i will be able to see you again after you left Korea." she tucked few strand of her hair behind her ear.

"Me too, I was just passing by and i saw you so instead of calling i thought i should be using the sentence which brought us close." he smiled brightly.

Few years ago

Eun Ae walked towards the table, where her seniors were sitting. With hesitation she decided to ask them for help.

"Excuse me?" her voice was low and shaky as she said.

"Yes?" the 3 male and 2 female students looked at her.

"I actually need help for this Korean literature subject. We have been given a task by Mr. Kang" she said showing her book. The students looked at each other and then at her, giving her their most disgusted look.

"Are you the same poor girl? Scholarship one?" one of the male student asked. She was taken aback by the sudden question which was completely unexpected at this time.

"Yeah but why is sunbae asking this question?" she pressed her speck nervously.

"Do you think that we will talk with a girl like you... geez please we have our standards" a female student blurted out and the others nodded in unison. Throwing a dirty look towards her, the students walked away leaving her confused.

"Do you perhaps want any help in Korean literature?" she snapped and turned only to see a handsome guy with well parted black hair standing. He was giving her his most beautiful smile. Eun Ae admired his looks, she was whipped​ due to his sharp features. That pointed nose and that wide smile enhanced the beauty of his face. His eyes were glossy but at the same time warm and peaceful just like a calm sea during low tides.

Unknowingly her eyes glinted, she smiled and nodded. Who can ever say no to such handsome man?

"Whoa Eun Ae you have became more beautiful than ever" his voice made her to look away with shyness.

"Thanks sunbae, but sunbae is still the same" she said on which he pouted.

"I haven't change a bit?" he crinkled his nose. She saw how disappointed he was and instantly realised that she should have elaborated her sentence properly.

"Ani...i mean sunbae looks the same cool, handsome and perfect" she spat making him laugh. She scratched her nape nervously as it was too much, she never spoke that much infront of him but now unknowingly she blurted out.

"Eun Ae where is your speck?"

"Sunbae i use lenses." she said as she placed the packets of ramyun in the shopping cart.

"Oh nice but you use to look beautiful with those glasses."

Her cheeks instantly turned scarlet red due to his compliment.

He was about to speak something but then he was cutoff due a phone call, "Oh Eun Ae just wait a second. I need to take this call" he said without looking at her as his eyes were fixed on the mobile screen.

"Yes" she answered and he stood at a distance from her, meanwhile she decided to grab some items. Her eyes never left him as she studied every movement of his, right from his habit of tapping his feet, digging hand inside the pocket, the way he bit his lip unconsciously while talking, the way he flips his hairs all were so mesmerising and cool she thought. Eun Ae noticed that few helper ladies were already eyeing on him. He was indeed a eye candy in the store.

"I hope sunbae and i can talk like earlier." she puckered her lips as she completed collecting the things.

Jong suk ran towards her as soon as he hung the call.

"Eun Ae actually i need to go. We can just meet again. Can you give me your number so i can contact you?" he uttered as he swapped the lock screen and looked at her anticipating for her answer.

"Oh sure" her voice was low as she was sad that he was leaving so early but still she held the smile on her face.

Eun Ae gave him her number, he bade farewell and left. Eun Ae stood still looking at her high school crush walking away.

~~~

"Yah Eun Ae where were you? i was so hungry" Jungkook's eyes were fixed on the TV screen as he pressed the buttons of the gaming console harshly. He got no response from her.

"Eun Ae-ah~~ where are you?? i am hungry~~" he cooed but still no response.

Jungkook waited for her response but when he got none, he looked back to see Eun Ae, he saw how she was smiling like a crazy and was in her own world.

"Yah..."

❎

"Shit" he cursed as he lost the game which he was trying to play from last few hours and it is because he was giving undivided attention to her.

"I LOST BECAUSE OF YOU..." he screamed. He chucked the console on the ground angrily and sprinted towards her. She landed into reality when he held her wrist.

"Oh Jungkook you are here?" she asked as she looked at him. Her mouth went agape in shock when she noticed how angry he was.

"What? have you lost it? i was here infront of you. I saw you entering and walking towards the dining table without even looking at me." his tone was heavy and rough. He was angry as his ego was hurt, it was the first time she ignored him and he was unable to swallow it.

"Sorry i was thinking about something." she wrenched her hand from his grip.

"Yah why is your face so red? do you have any allergy?" he saw how her cheeks were flustered and he tried touching it.

"Oh is that so?" she placed her hands on her cheeks hiding it in embarrassment.

"Nothing" she walked away towards the kitchen but Jungkook blocked her way by standing infront of her. He crossed his arms and balanced his weight on his left leg, his eyes squinting and was judging her harder.

"Eun Ae tell me"

"Nothing Jungkook let me go" she pushed him out of her way but she failed as he was strong enough.

"Tell me already"

She noticed how consistent and stubborn he was so she decided to tell him, "Actually when i was shopping for the grocery i saw my high school crush Jong-suk sunbae" she looked down shyly thinking about him. Even imagining about him was enough for her.

"Oh" was the only thing he was able to say.

"Okay now just leave me alone. I need to work." she walked away from him.

"She even had a crush?" he mumbled, trapping his upper lip between his teeth.

The whole day Jungkook saw how happy she was. Smiling like crazy and murmuring some random love songs. It was not the first time he was seeing her this way, last time he remember she had the same mood when EXO had a comeback and she had completely​ lost her sanity due to Baekhyun's new hairstyle but this time it was completely different, Eun Ae having a crush other than Baekhyun wasn't acceptable by his mind and even he don't know why?

~~~

Next day she came running from her room and almost bumped on Jungkook.

"Yah are you okay? why are you running?" he grabbed her shoulders.

"Jungkook please leave me already. I am busy" she pushed him and walked away towards the kitchen leaving him dumbfounded.

"Why is she being like this?" he muttered.

"Eun Ae are you okay? why are you in hurry?" he asked as he walked towards her. Eun Ae was busy taking out the jar from a closet which was out of her reach.

"Wait i will help you. You are smol bean" he guffawed mockingly. His hand skillful reached towards the jar and he handed it to her proudly, bragging about his height.

"Thanks" she smiled, her smile showed gratitude and she continued doing her work.

"By the way are you making something for me?" he nudged her shoulder playfully with his.

"Ani... i am making something for sunbae"

Jungkook's face dropped as he heard that. He was somewhat hurt, unaware of the fact that he was actually jealous.

"Oh so your sunbae is coming? That's great" his voice lacked the playfulness which always use to be, instead it was blunt. Jungkook took a brief look at her and then walked towards his room.

Eun Ae on the other hand was very happy as today she will be spending sometime with Jong suk. She made some of the best delicacies in which she is skilled, she even used some awesome cooking techniques which were given by Jin. She set the table nicely and waited for him to arrive.

Finally the time came as the bell rang. She quickly sprinted towards the door only to see the 1.86 m tall man standing infront of her. She welcomed him with the brightest smile she can offer to anyone. She saw how cheekily he smiled while giving her the bouquet of orchids. Eun Ae noticed that he was looking way handsome like ever, wearing that black satin shirt and well tailored brown pant.

She greeted him and took the bouquet. He entered and followed her towards the couch area.

"I am sorry i guess i am late" he said as he sat on the couch while his eyes admired the house.

"Of course not, i guess you are on time" she beamed.

"Oh thanks"

"Sunbae i guess we should head towards the dining table or else the food will be cold." Eun Ae suggested on which he nodded. She served him the delicacies and they started eating.

"Eun Ae-ah i never thought that you own such a luxurious condo."

"Actually-"

"Eun Ae-ah~ i am hungry... feed me" a hoarse voice interrupted and they turned to see Jungkook climbing down the stairs with his bed hairs and heavy lidded eyes. He was completely unaware that Jong suk was present.

He walked ruffling his hair towards the dining table only to realise that Jong suk was looking at him with wide eyes and expressionless face while Eun Ae mentally cursed herself for completely forgetting about Jungkook. She saw how shocked her sunbae was while Jungkook was completely clueless about what was happening.

"Who is he Eun Ae?" Jong suk turned his head towards Eun Ae who was actually looking at Jungkook giving him a dirty look as he completely ruined 'their' moment.

Jungkook, as soon as he realised what happened, he mentally smiled and walked towards the table as if he owns the world.

"Hi so you are Jong suk? i am Jeon Jungkook and i am Eun Ae's husband" he smiled proudly and bowed to him.

Jong suk gulped and awkwardly greeted him.

"Oh i never thought Eun Ae was married" he said in slow and creaky voice, totally disappointed.

"Actually-"

"It's fine let's be close" Jungkook pulled the chair and sat beside Eun Ae like a real husband would do. Eun Ae literally wanted to kick his balls but she decided to remain calm as she did not wanted to ruin the scene just because of Jungkook.

Eun Ae and Jong suk discussed their memories as how they would bunk classes and roam around doing stupid and funny things. They were so involved in their talks and gossips that Jungkook almost got bored and felt unwanted. Jungkook's face sulked as he saw Eun Ae giving all her attention to her 'sunbae' instead of him.

The lunch ended and they all walked towards the couch. Jungkook felt devalued and small infront of the tall man. He never thought that being 1.78 m tall he can even feel so tiny someday.

"Now i can imagine how Jimin hyung use to feel" he sat infront of Eun Ae and tried hard to grab her attention by making random sounds, he was so desperate that he even tried murmuring EXO's song but was of no use. Tired and bored he just sat there crossing arms and watching the lovey dovey couple laughing and gossiping.

He was hurt somewhere, he felt a weird feeling arousing inside him which he never experienced for any girl. Initially he thought that it is because, he is addicted to Eun Ae's attention that's why he must be feeling this way but seeing them so close he felt something inside him burning. He kept poking his inner cheek with his tongue in frustration.

Jong suk's mobile beeped and he swapped the screen to see the notification.

"Eun Ae actually it's a message from my wife. I need to go, she must be waiting" he smiled as he got up. Her face became pale as he heard the word 'wife'.

"Oh so sunbae is married...?"

"Okay then i will leave" He got up and walked away. During this whole scene there was this one person who was hella happy and even he don't know why?

"Yes yes... I am glad you came Jong suk i hope we can meet in future as well..!" his eyes dazzled as he said and a wide smile was plastered on his face.

The door closed and Eun Ae ran towards the couch.

"Why this happens to me? was i late to express myself?" she kicked the pillows and it scattered on ground.

Jungkook was continuously smiling but somewhere inside he was sad for Eun Ae as he knew that Jong suk was her first crush and first crush is always special. He walked towards her with an intention of comforting her.

"It's fine Eun Ae. You can find a better man." he patted her head.

"Jungkook do you think he gave up on me just because i gave white rose on his graduation day?" her eyes were misty and nose tip was slight red as if she was about to tear up sooner.

"You gave him white rose?" Jungkook controlled his laugh which was about to explode on which she nodded.

Due to sudden explosion he landed on ground, rolling and laughing.

"Yah! are you making fun of me?" she grabbed a pillow which was nearby on the ground and chucked towards him.

"You are seriously something... no doubt you are still single. Who gives white rose to the one he or she loves or likes?" he wiped his tears which rolled down his cheeks as he was laughing uncontrollably.

"Yeah you are right...!! aish.." she slightly slapped her forehead. "Ottoke?" she pouted.

"It's fine you still have Baekhyun remember?" he tired making her mood and it actually worked as a grin appeared on her face.

"Yes, i can do EXO marathon..!!" she clapped like crazy and ran towards her room leaving him alone on the floor.

"Is she crazy?" he sat up looking at her who just ran as if nothing happened few seconds ago.

"Typical fangirl" he chuckled.

"But why i am so happy?? was i jealo--"

"Oh no what are you thinking Jungkook why should i be jealous of that man?" he laughed but he knew something was wrong inside him, an anonymous feeling had started building which even he can't ignore, especially when he sees a man breathing around her.

"Seriously who gives white rose?" his lips twitched and his eyes went towards the orchid bouquet placed on the table.

"Oh he remembers her choice" he scoffed, "Orchids"

Jong suk walked towards his car. He was still holding his mobile in his hand, his eyes casually went towards the message he got earlier.
