06h00 - Outside my flat

A certain handsome man had arrived at my flat... (Much to my chagrin).

Knock ... Knock ... Knock ...

His voice can be heard all the way in my peaceful dreams of warm crumpets and heart shaped butter: "Haneul open up. The coffee's getting cold. Haneul! Hello?"

In my room, sound asleep, I ignored the incessant sound that was him, also choosing to ignore my cellphone ringing in the kitchen, where I forgot it on the counter last night, since you had a day off today...

"Ssi-bal! I have work today!" I swore and groaned in my sleep. Throughout the commotion, I chose to sleep on, curled up like a feline under the covers. I needed just a few more minutes...

Giving up, the poor man takes to wrapping his knuckles on my door in the hopes to get my attention. Which had gathered the attention of my nosy neighbours' and earned him their odd looks of curiosity too. He ignored them and tried calling my cell again.

06h15 - Inside my flat

I awoke to the sound of incessant knocking at my front door. Checking my bedside alarm clock, I realised that it was still very early in the morning for anyone to be bothering me. It was only a quarter past six in the morning!

Groaning and rolling over, I slowly slid out of my bed, making my way over to the door in the kitchen.

"I swear if it is that nosy, noisy, bitter woman from number 5, I am not bothered with opening the door at all. And I am heading straight back to bed. She can call the police for all I care. I haven't done anything wrong." I muttered to myself as I stretched my arms and yawned.

That witch was always minding my business, condescending me for things that weren't her business. So, to whoever it was wrapping at my front door this morning, it better fucking have a good reason when I open this door. I thought to myself.

Gingerly, I peeked through the eye hole to make sure it really wasn't that crazy woman or any of my other deranged neighbours.

And to my dismay it was... Jimin!

I opened the door, pleasantly surprised, and my mood improved a great deal, when I saw the one and only Park Jimin standing on my doorstep smiling as brightly as the morning sunlight.

"Good morning beautiful!" He sang out to me happily and pulled out a bouquet of red roses from behind him, which he handed to me.

"Morning Chimmy..." I said to him in reply, accepting the gift and stretched like a cat as I stepped aside for Jimin to enter.

I looked at the bouquet of roses in my hands and became fully awake.

Hang on... realisation hits me a little too late and I spun around to look at him incredulously.

"Jimin-ah! How did you find out where I live?" I narrowed my eyes at him.

"One word, Jungkook." Jimin shrugged at me as he placed a box of fresh cream doughnuts and two cups of coffee, which was now lukewarm thanks to my delayed response, on my small wooden kitchen table.

I grabbed my cellphone off the kitchen table and sent the cheeky man a voice note:

Haneul: Jeon Jungkook! I will murder you! (I almost screeched into my phone's microphone).

Haneul: Jimin woke me up so early because of you!

I certainly am glad I saved Jungkook's number last night when he had called me to say he had reached home. I am certain that he will find this hilarious, but I'm really mad that my beauty sleep was disturbed.

Jimin hugged me innocently from behind in an effort to placate me.

"Now play nicely Haneul... Jungkook had only given me your address because I wanted to pick you up. Your Appa asked me to bring you to the office today for a meeting. So I decided to bring you some breakfast as well, since we promised to see each other today and have to cancel that plan." And with that he gestured to the coffee and doughnuts on the kitchen table.

"Awww Chimmy! You shouldn't have!" I hugged him, giving in and also because I needed to say thank you.

"Gwaenchanah Haneul (It's okay) I wanted to." He smiled genuinely at me.

"Thank you. I suppose I'll forgive you for waking me so early since you brought food!" I said to him, narrowing my eyes at him. To which he chuckled and ruffled my hair in response.

I picked a cup of coffee up and took a sip.

"I'll have you know, Jimin-ssi, I'm a barista, but this is probably the best cappuccino I've ever had in my entire life!"

"Thank you." He blushed. "I made it myself." He did a small bow, like an actor after a performance; and had the most precious smile on his face.

"Nonsense! You're a liar!" I exclaimed dramatically.

"Er... I think you mean that I'm a lawyer." Jimin grinned at me, making a terrible pun.

"I worked as a barista as well when I was still a law student. This is actually from your workplace - I also worked at that café. Seojin let me make this for you."

"..." I had no words... This man is amazing. I wasn't able to say anything. No one has ever done anything like this for me. All I could do was hug Jimin and the two of us stayed that way for as long as we could.

07h10

We both just had breakfast together. I had decided to make some pancakes for Jimin as a thank you. He insisted on helping me wash up after breakfast, but I refused since he is technically my guest. So, instead, Jimin decided he would rather hold me while I washed the dishes, not wanting to be far away from me after finding me again.

My cellphone suddenly began to ring and I realised that it was from my appa.

Jimin had unwillingly let go of me so I can answer the call. All the while, he was pouting in a corner, not wanting his uncle to know he was already at my flat.

"Haneul? How are you my dear?" Appa greeted me kindly.

"I'm okay appa. How are you?"

"Gwaenchanah. Gwaenchanah. Jimin will be coming over to your flat soon. I had meant to tell you sooner... But you had left in a hurry yesterday before I could tell you more about the meeting we'll be having today. So I thought to call you now."

"Meeting? Ommo! I forgot all about it! I have work today!" I exclaimed in a panic, unsure of how I could get out of this nightmare.

My headache returned.

"Oh, Haneul, don't stress about that, Jimin will take care of that with Seojin. You'll see why it's important when you get here. Hmm...Speaking of which, Jimin should be there by eight o'clock."

"But he's- " I paused, catching Jimin's bright brown eyes. He shook his head indicating that him being here was a secret.

To Mr. Park's credit, however, he hadn't caught on. I guess he wanted me to meet all of them together, but here was Jimin, having breakfast with me in my flat.

"Please be ready. Oh, and the dress code is black formal. Make sure you look pretty, Haneul!" 

"Appa! You know I don't own any formal clothes yet. I need to go out and buy some!" I half whined into the receiver.

"Gwaenchanah. I've sent something with Jimin for you to wear." My appa nonchalantly said as if this was the most normal thing in the world.

"Gomawoyo Appa."

Mr. Park reminded me one more time to be ready and to make sure that I looked pretty.

'What an odd request appa's making...' I shrugged to myself.

"What did your appa say?"

"That I should 'make sure I look pretty'. What does he mean? Oh- and he said he sent something with you for me to wear to this 'meeting'."

"Ommo! I forgot that in the car!" Jimin exclaimed expressively, smacking his forehead dramatically. "I'll just be back." He rushed out the front door to the parking lot downstairs where I knew his car was parked.

Approximately five minutes later, the gorgeous man returned, huffing slightly, with a shopping bag from a very expensive store in hand.

"Appa sent me this?" I asked him incredulously.

"Uh- well... Now that you put it that way, not exactly. He asked me to get you a dress for the meeting. So I got you a coat as well. It's getting colder now and you should dress warmer." He smiled shyly.

I opened out the coat. It wasn't just any ordinary coat. It was a beautiful black trench coat! I've always wanted one, but could never bring myself to buy one, because only the high-end boutiques sold them apart from some online stores, and I was too shy to walk into one of their physical stores to look for one.

"Gomawoyo Chimmy! It's beautiful!" I hugged him tight as I thanked him again, doing a little excited jump when I pulled away. He's the sweetest guy I've ever met.
Jimin's smile broadened.
"It's a small present from me."

"This is small?!" I looked at him, an eyebrow raised.
"Ani... You known what I mean. For old times sake, Haneul." His eyes looked a little sadder, but he straightened up and said he was going to wait for me in the living room.

Excited to try these on, I rushed off into my bathroom to wash up and get ready for our 'big day'.
