GIGI POV

I peeked out the window before opening the door. There he was on the front porch with his mask and baseball cap. I still couldn't believe it. I opened the door and peeked out.

"Hi." I said.

"Hi." He said. "I don't think we really got to meet. I'm Yoongi," he said, bowing. I held out my hand, and he took it and shook.

"I'm Gigi. I didn't quite get to you at the fan meet." I said.

"I'm sorry about all of this," he said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I know you and your family have a happy life and I am getting in the way."

"I thought you believed in fate?"

"I do. But I don't want anyone to get hurt."

"I don't think anyone wants someone to get hurt, but in life, isn't it inevitable?"

"How old are you again?" he asked.

"12," I said.

"You sure you're not 25?" I could hear the smile in his voice.

"I'm sure. Mom wanted me to keep you company until she comes out. I have to say, your English is awesome."

"That's thanks to your mom."

"No way."

"Seriously. I met her on HelloTalk. Well, she didn't know it was me."

"That's why her Korean got so much better?"

"Yup."

Then, the door opened, and mom came out.

"Thanks, honey." She said to me, giving me a hug. "Can you do me a favor and look out for daddy while I'm gone?"

"Sure. When will you be back?" I asked.

"Tomorrow. Text me if you need me. I love you!"

"Love you too mom!! Bye Yoongi! Nice to meet you."

"안녕 Gigi!"

SARAH POV

"What now?" I asked.

"Would you mind meeting the members again?" He asked.

"Not at all!!! I guess the fan meet is done?"

"Yes. Ready?" He held his hand out for me. How I had dreamed of holding these hands, of the things they could do. OMG, what am I doing? Head out of the gutter. I took his hand and we went to the car, where he opened the door for me. I got in, and he closed the door behind me, before getting into the driver's side.

"Are you sure you don't want me to drive? I live here, you know." I said.

"I think I can handle it," he said. He took my hand and started driving. We were driving for a bit in silence, but I couldn't stop thinking about this whole situation. It terrified me.

"I'm afraid," I said.

"왜 (Why)?" he asked.

"Because you are all I have been able to think of for a long time. And yet, I am happily married. I love my husband. This, us, feels right and wrong at the same time, and I don't know how to reconcile it all."

"알고있어요 (I know). We have to figure it out."

"I don't want to hurt anyone," I said.

"Neither do I. But, I think someone is going to end up getting hurt, no matter what your intentions are."
