Because of her emergency situation, Jimin stayed at home for the next three days. She announced to her students that they'll have online classes instead of physical ones. Typical students would be happy by the news.

But for Yu Jimin, it is different.

She was the college heartthrob even when she was a student there. Even after start working as one of the lecturers, she is still the college heartthrob. Her peer lecturers love her. Even her students love her.

So, her students sigh instead of having a party about it.

But Jimin didn't actually care about it. Since she can stay at home for a while, she can be with Minjeong all the time. She can cuddle with her fiancee when she's sleepy. She can ask for Minjeong's help when she needs it.

She just loves to be with Minjeong instead.

Also, since Jimin decided to make their relationship a bit more public, which means more exposure of Minjeong's identity as Karina's Winter. If Minjeong is being truthful, she had it a bit rough. Not that she hates the idea, and she will never hate her fiancee.

She just isn't keen on people's attention that much.

Minjeong went out to buy groceries alone since Jimin couldn't go with her like they usually did. Much more to her surprise, some people recognize her as she made her way inside the grocery store.

"Oh, aren't you Winter? That instafamous Karina's fiancee!", a boy greeted Minjeong happily while pointing his finger at the girl excitedly. Shocked and startled, Minjeong slowly nods her head shyly before keeping her eyes on the floor.

"Oh my god! Can I take a picture with you?", he asked and Minjeong didn't know how to deal with the situation at the moment.

"I'm sorry", she said in her low voice, slightly bending her body politely while trying to make her way through the boy. When she does, another person greeted her not far away from the first one.

"Oh? Winter?", it is now a girl.

"I'm sorry, I think you got the wrong person", Minjeong tried so hard to avoid any eye contact with the other girls.

Thanks to the sudden recognition, many more people asked her in the grocery store if she was that Winter they knew from Karina's Instagram. A bit horrified and flustered, plus, no people for her to lean on in the messy situation, Minjeong shrug all of them off as politely as possible.

Who knew the usual grocery shopping could turn into a sudden fan-meet?

When she got home, Jimin was waiting for her in the living room with a warm smile on her face. Minjeong's smiled back at her fiancee followed by a light sigh, looking knowingly at her fiancee.

"You knew what happened, don't you?", Minjeong asked as she closed the front door shut.

"When they tagged my name on your pictures, yes, I knew. Are you an instafamous like me now?", Jimin giggled lightly before opening her arms wide. She understand how much the situation wasn't her fiancee's favorite moment to enjoy.

Minjeong set the groceries on the coffee table before she made her way toward her fiancee for a warm hug. Jimin caressed the back of Winter's hair gently as the other hand held tight around Minjeong's waist.

"Are you scared?", the older ask.

"A bit, because you weren't there to help me".

"I'll take care of myself, and then we will go to groceries together as usual, yeah? I'll be your guardian angel again", Jimin said before she placed a soft kiss on Minjeong's forehead. The younger girl just smiled, nodded her head.

"Did anyone harass you?", Jimin asked and Minjeong shook her head immediately.

"Did they ask weird questions?", she asked again, and Minjeong said no.

"Did they ask to take a picture together? Just curious, since I got that most of the time", Jimin sneered.

"They did, but I was too shy and flustered by the request. I politely reject them", Minjeong smiled. Jimin then lifted one of her hands to cup Minjeong on her cheek. She caressed it softly with her thumbs. A lovely smile formed on her ethereal face.

"Good job. Your beautiful face is only for me to look up close", Jimin smirked playfully as she lean in for a peck on the younger lips. Minjeong scoffs right after, "Silly".

****

Minjeong's first book, titled 'Hey! You' was a hit. The book is placed in the top ten in every bookstore available in the country. When her publisher told her that some company wants to interview her, Minjeong politely rejects them. She isn't used to publicity. She didn't like to reveal her face to the world. People's expectations and reactions scared her most of the time.

Jimin always encourages her to do so. Her fiancee said Minjeong might overthink most things, but she also understands how her fiancee is with the attention problem.

After being in the relationship with the older girl, Minjeong thought she's gonna be fine with everything as long as Karina was there for her. But sometimes, she got it wrong.

There are times when Minjeong heart beat so fast that it is hard for her to breathe. Mentioning that she got a disease inside her, which she forgot sometimes, she knew public attention wasn't good for her.

Yeah, do you remember? Minjeong got hyperthyroidism even before she got into a relationship with Jimin.

Hyperthiroid is a strong link with panic attacks, Minjeong knew it so well. Her doctor told her many times already, and both Minjeong and Jimin knew it is best for Minjeong to be calm most of the time.

"How about you offered them a written interview instead of the broadcasted one?", Jimin suggested to her fiancee who's currently in her deep thinking, sitting right in front of her laptop.

"Can it be like that?", Minjeong asks in curiosity.

"Of course, you can. Just tell them you had some medical situation where the crowd wasn't a good choice for your health", Jimin nodded her head knowingly as she circled her arms behind her fiancee's shoulder.

"Also, you can say that your fiancee strongly disagrees with the broadcast interview. I don't want the love of my life to get a heart attack while being interviewed", she continued, tilting her head to look at Minjeong by the side of her face.

"Say that to them", Jimin said.

"Okay", Minjeong smiled.

****

"I'm sorry but I really can't do the broadcast interview. My health didn't allow me to do so", Minjeong said to her publisher on the phone. Instead of giving it a pass on, her publisher tries to persuade her more into the interview which leaves Minjeong out of words to argue.

"I-- I just can't do it, sir. I'm so sorry. Can you make it into a written one?", Minjeong continued. Jimin was watching her from the kitchen with her brows furrowed intensely. Why won't that grumpy publisher man give it a pass?

"Yeah. A written one. I can do the written one. I beg you", Minjeong continue to talk on the phone, and Jimin couldn't hold it no more. That publisher is so stubborn.

Jimin walked towards her fiancee and take the phone away from Minjeong's hand, putting it on her own ears angrily. "Hello, hi mister publisher. I'm Minjeong's fiancee", Jimin talked to the phone, totally annoyed.

"No, no. I won't allow her to attend the broadcast interview. I won't lose my fiancee's life to a mere book interview", Jimin continue to argue on the phone as Minjeong watches how her fiancee's hands moved in angry swings. But, man. That grumpy man is so stubborn.

"Sir. I know, you want to do it because it will financially benefit you. But my fiancee here has a medical situation, won't you understand?", Jimin massaged her temple, trying to suppress her anger. Minjeong shifted towards her, caressing her hands in soft movements on Jimin's arms to let her calm down.

"Mister!", Jimin suddenly stomp her feet out loud, shocking Minjeong with the sudden madness.

"What if my wife-- I mean, my fiancee had a heart attack during the interview. Will you be responsible for everything?", she argues. Angrier, with a higher voice and furrowing eyebrows evident.

Minjeong saw how her fiancee became silent out of the blue. Jimin didn't say anything but heard everything on the phone as her breathing soothed along with Minjeong's soft hand movements on her arms. The older girls inhale and exhale her breath, nodding her head a few times and Minjeong didn't know the reason why.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm good with that. Thank you for your understanding", Jimin said her thanks before she ends the phone call with a heavy sigh.

"What did they say?", Minjeong asked in curiosity, still caressing Jimin's arms softly with her thumbs as the madness still a bit evident on her fiancee's face.

"They agreed to let you do the written interview", Jimin nods her head thankfully before it is immediately followed up by another heavy sigh.

"Then, why are you still like this?".

"I'm angry, you know? They didn't understand how your medical problems will get affected by the interview. They only agreed after they tried to bribe me with something else", Jimin sighed as Minjeong pulled them together to sit on the sofa. The younger pat Jimin's back, trying to soothe every tense vein on her fiancee from her madness.

"What kind of bribe?", Minjeong asked, finally pulling away from Jimin, looking into her fiancee's eyes, full of warmth.

"Since they knew that your fiancee is the instafamous Karina, they wanted me to post a picture of me buying your book and doing a review about 'em. They will use my video as the advertisement instead", Jimin moved her hands to hold Minjeong's caressing it gently.

"Thank you", Minjeong's voice came out so soft. So sweet and full of honesty that it made Jimin's burning heart blooms in a garden full of roses in a matter of seconds.

"Anything for you, babe. Anything", Jimin smiled, giving a peck on Minjeong's lips. "I love my fiancee more than anything, and I don't want to see that painful expression of yours ever again. Enough I'm seeing it once at the ice rinks. It shattered me", she confessed.

Minjeong smiled happily, "What will you say in your interview then?".

"You want me to be honest Karina or blunt Karina?", the older asked with her playful smirk.

"Spill me your script for both", Minjeong giggles. Jimin nodded her head as she lightly coughed, trying to test out her voice in a playful manner.

"Okay. Honest Karina will be like this", Jimin paused her words before coughing fakely again, swinging her hands with Minjeong in a slow movement.

"Hi! It's Karina and today I bought this amazing book. I totally recommend this book for everyone, because why? This book is based on the real-life story of the author. The romance sways my heart and every bits of the words makes my heart flutter! Too much sweetness and it gave me diabetes!", Jimin winked at Minjeong as the younger girl laughed at the older nonsense words.

"Then, how about the blunt one?", the latter asked before her fiancee start to cough fakely again. Minjeong laughs at the childish act before Jimin continued.

"Hi everyone, this is Karina and I bought this amazing book today! The story tells about how the love of my life and me--"

"Oh no, you don't!", Minjeong laughs at her words.

"Babe, let me continue!", Jimin laughs back before Minjeong nodded her head in reply.

"The story tells about how the love of my life and I got into this sweet relationship, got us to live together and into an engagement. We did stuff and--"

"You won't say that!", Minjeong slaps her arms lightly. There it goes, no filter Jimin.

"We did stuff and swish swoosh swish, Minjeong! I love you! And then another swoosh swoosh", Jimin moved her arms in funny motions, leaving the younger girl cracking again.

Minjeong makes it so easy to turn dinosaur Jimin into playful Jimin.
