crickets chirped,

cars echoed from the roads,

and people from nearby could be heard,

as Taehyung continued to draw Minyoon.

Minyoon was playing with the string on her hoodie

when she looked straight into Taehyung's sparkling dark brown orbs

and asked with a trembling voice:

"Why did you choose to help me? Or to draw me?" she asked in an uncertain voice.

Taehyung stopped moving his pencil

and looked up

to meet Minyoon's eyes.

"Because to me, you're so much more than gorgeous."

"So much more than perfect."

Minyoon stared at Taehyung with a puzzled expression on her face.

Taehyung noticed

and set his sketchbook down.

he slid his hands into her's

and squeezed her hands.

he looked into her eyes

with love and compassion.

"Minyoon, I..." he stopped.

then started again.

"I don't really know how you'd take this. Or if you feel the same way, but that first day I saw you. I felt a connection. Like.... I don't know. Like we were meant to be or something."

Taehyung paused and looked at Minyoon

and her flustered red face.

"I know that was cheesy and cliche, so let me get to the point," he began again.

"Will you, Choi Minyoon, be my girlfriend?" Taehyung asked with a hopeful expression resting on his charming face.
