V : Confections and Words

Thursday, February the 13th.

One more sunrise and it would be Valentine's day.

Or in another language, it translates to the day where I have to spare some of my expenses to give out confectioneries.

"I'm telling you it won't work." Jimin said as we walked in the school corridors, heading towards the gate since classes were dismissed.

"Well what do you think I should do?" I sighed, "I don't have the gut to give him my treat personally."

I had planned to give out my homemade treats to all of the boys in my class as an act of kindness, an idea which Jimin totally objected. To be fully honest, the actual reason was because I don't have the courage to give my treat only to Jungkook. My point is, that would just mean the same as confessing to him, right?

But Jimin was trying to convince me that giving my treats to everyone weren't any better than me not giving him anything. Well it's all set in my mind, I don't even care anymore about expressing my affection to Jungkook.

Urgh, I just can't.

At least he will still get to eat the confection I had made with all my heart.

"Then what about the treats, have you prepared them?"

"No."

"Damn Jinhee, I swear sometimes you are so helpless."

His sentence made me chuckle.

"Yah, I'll help you. I'll come with you to your house right now." He stated in a convincing tone "we should go buy the ingredients first tho."

I looked at my wrist watch and learned that it was 3:11 p.m, we were already standing outside the school gate.

"Relax Chim, we still got the whole evening. Go home first and put your bag away." I patted his backpack "Oh, and change into something better than this uniform since we're going out."

"I ain't no chimpanzee, miss. But okay then, I'll make sure to rush so you won't miss me for too long." he looked to me walking on his right, and winked.

"Don't forget the fact that you're helping me make chocolates for Jungkook."

"Ouch, I'm so hurt." he said, playfully holding his chest.

"By the way, what about my treat?" He threw his arm around my neck and waited for my answer.

"I'm already allowing you to have a chocolate-tasting spree for this whole evening and you still want more?" I raised my brows as I spoke.

"If that's how you're going to be then I'll just call Jungkook and tell him you like him right now." he took out his phone.

"YAH, YOU HAVE A DEATH WISH OR SOMETHING?" I tried stealing the phone from him but I can't since he held it high, even on my tippy-toes.

"Then what are you gonna give me?" I was jumping at the moment he asked me that, still trying to reach his phone.

"Just give up already, Lee Jinhee."

I stopped trying, "Okay then, I'll give my little baby dino a special treat."

"Whoa, it has been so long since the time I really was a dinosaur huh?" he laughed, "You better keep your word." he gave me a satisfied smile and slipped his phone back to his pocket.

Everything went as planned and we went to shop for the ingredients.

After getting all we need, Jimin started complaining about his hunger.
