Me: "Today was splendid..."
Jimin: "Indeed..."
He looked at me as I was licking my ice cream inside the cone as far as my tongue could reach.
Jimin: "Why don't you start eating the cone already?"
Me: "I don't really like waffles."
I continued licking as long as I thought there was no more ice cream left but only an empty waffle cone.
Just as I was getting ready to throw the remains away, I heard him sigh, and the next moment, the waffle was in his mouth.
He snatched it away and took off a bite.
Jimin: "Such a waste of money."
Me: "I literally licked every inch of that thing."
Jimin: "Do you think I care?"
I kept silent for a moment as I saw him take another big bite.
Me: "You really don’t have to do this you know."
Jimin: "I want to. I like waffles" he mumbled with a mouth full as I just hummed and walked along.
There was no sound for a while except the crunching of the waffles.
He shook off the crumbs from his hands as he took the last bite which still had a little bit of the chocolate ice cream in it.
Jimin: "Mm. The ice cream is nice. How could you throw it away?"
Me: "It was hardly a pinch, Jimin. Why didn’t you have it if you like it so much?"
Jimin: "I'm not a pig."
I stopped on my tracks.
Me: "Wait wait Mr. Park! Did you just call me a pig?!"
Jimin: "Or who else can have two whole plates of french fries and Beignets along with a Blue lagoon and still be hungry to devour down a whole ice cream?!"
I couldn’t stop myself from laughing when he said the 'Beignets' I taught him to pronounce for a whole 10 minutes.
We found ourselves in front of the hotel in the next few minutes after the long walk from the little food stores.. Mom had long come back dropping us at the street food market since it was not that distant from the hotel and we could manage to walk that distance...
Especially with him, it felt like in no time or stress at all.
We walked up the stairs, and said our good nights...
Me: "Where to, tomorrow?"
Jimin: "Well... We could go to the market as aunty really wanted to get a French manicure."
What? And she told that to him? Is she actually growing more fond of him now?
Me: "Okay. Market then... Good night Chim~"
And with that I was gonna ring the door bell to my room when he pulled my hand all of a sudden...
And kissed me on my left cheek.
"Good night~ And Yasou, Y/n~ :)"
The next moment, he entered his room and closed the door in a blink of an eye.
I stood there with a hand on my left cheek, dumbfounded. I blinked several times to register what just happened.
And only then did I realise, my cheeks were burning. Thank god he ran away faster than my cheeks turned red.
I shakily took my hands to the doorbell and rang it momentarily. Mom opened the door and I fell on my bed immediately with my wobbly feet.
Mom: "You look tired Y/n.... Go to sleep today... I'll ask about your day tomorrow..."
And I replied with a "Hmm", kicked off my shoes, and closed my eyes, just to drown in his smiling face again....
★★★★★★★★★★★★
I opened my eyes to the bright and Golden rays from the open balcony as I sat up lazily expecting my mother to be out standing there.
I stretched, took my meds, and reached the bathroom with still wobbly feet, only this time, it was for my sleepiness.
I finished all the morning business and asked mom about the day's plan..
Mom: "Didn’t Jimin tell you yet?"
Oh right- I forgot-
Me: "Oh he did. I just didn’t remember. Market right?"
Mom: "Yup~"
She said cheerfully.
I very well knew that this was the place she looked forward to visiting the most in France.
Well, not only in France. Practically everywhere.
I got ready for the day in the next 15 minutes and came out to knock on Jimin's door.
The door swung open quite fast, and I was welcomed with the most appealing grin which I still wasn’t used to. It still made my heart dance in a thousand ways... Poor me..
Jimin: "Come on in~ You can stare at me after that!"
I scoffed, though a bit embarrassed, and walked in.
Me: "You not ready yet?"
Jimin: "Just give me 5 more minutes!"
And he was in the bathroom in a flash.
I waited for 7 minutes and he finally came out with a stripped black and white shirt and a tanned jacket. His blonde hair with small glimpses of black ones at the root was divided at the left side and the lox at the right side made him look extremely handsome...
I didn’t realise I was staring for too long. Again.
Jimin: "Okay I gave you the permission of staring, right, but we are gonna be late after this."
Ugh. Just stop embarrassing yourself Y/n!!
Me: "Shut up and let's go."
I rushed out of the room to hide my red cheeks. I really need to put on a red blush to make it look natural next time.
