After all these years, the boy who stood up for you, who cared for you, and gave you the necklace was just right in front of you. You never would have thought that it would be Jungkook though looking at him now, you can see the resemblance.
Your heart began to race as you blankly stared at him without even knowing. The moment of silence just made the sounds of the wind easily heard as it passes by the two of you.

Jungkook suddenly smiled as he looked over his shoulder with his eye towards the street, "Get up," he demanded as he stood up from his position.
"Why?"
He pulled you up from the sand then pointed at the ice cream stand up ahead, "Let's eat some."

"Hey kids, what kind of ice cream do you want?" the vendor questioned.
"Chocolate," the two of you said in unison. You thought it was a little bizarre that both of you picked the same type of flavor and said it at the same time but the two of you just looked at each other, giggling.
"Here you go, two chocolate ice creams for the young couple," the vendor smiled as he gave you and Jungkook the ice cream.
Jungkook's eyes suddenly shot wide, "We're not dating," he retorted, shaking his hand at the vendor.
"Oh really? I apologize, but you two do look good together," he smiled once more.

The two of you sat down on a nearby bench, quietly as you eat your ice cream.
There were no words, only the sounds of breathing and the distance voices of young children playing around. It was peaceful. No disturbance, no large amount of people around you, and no parents.

"Hey, Ji Hyun?" he said as he turned his head, facing you.
Also turning your head, you couldn't help but giggle at his image right now. He had a smear of chocolate ice cream on his cheek. "Do you not know where your mouth is?" you laughed.
The boy was confused, "What?"
You pointed at your own cheek, "Right here."
"Here?"
Shaking your head, you continued to smile at him, "Here," reaching your hand out, you touched his sticky cheek, trying to smear off the ice cream.

When the smudge was finally off his face he swiftly grabbed your hand that you used to smear off the chocolate and yanked it making you fall forward, your lips aiming for his. Your heart began to beat faster the moment your lips touched his.
You couldn't help but close your eyes, you wanted this feeling to last longer.
Jungkook pulled away. Immediately, you shifted so that your face won't be facing his right now. Your heart was still beating faster than before and you can tell your face must be red like a tomato. Did that just really happen?

Jungkook grinned, "You're an idiot, and you know that right?"
You instantly turned your head, feeling a little insulted. "Excuse me?"
The boy laughed, "Never mind," he retorted as he leaned back on the bench.
"What the heck? Tell me!" you demanded shaking his arm as he continued to laugh at you.

Noticing the watch on Jungkook's wrist, you realized that it was already late, "Shit. Jungkook, we have to go," you said as you grabbed his hand then ran off.

You realized it was already dark when you came home. Only a few more steps away from your house, you can see a dark figure waiting for you. Automatically, you knew it was your father.
Taking a deep breathe, you approached him with Jungkook by your side.

"Yah! Where have you been?!" he questioned, screaming at your face. He turned his gaze towards the boy beside you, who's standing quietly in shock. "Were you hanging out with him?"
You nodded your head, "Yes..."
"You little-" before he could finish his sentence, he slapped you across the face, making you whimper at his actions, "Didn't I tell you to stay away from him?!" he said furiously.

You knew this was going to happen, you just didn't think that Jungkook would be here to see it. This is your weakest state, the state that you never want to show to anyone.
You can tell your tears are already starting to form in your eyes. One by one, each tear dripped off and fell onto your cheek as your father continues to stare down on you with fury.

Jungkook stepped in, "Mr. Park, it's not Ji Hyun's fault. I'm the reason why she came home so late," he tried explaining.
"You stay out of this young man!" your father roared.
Biting the bottom of your lip, you held into Jungkook's shirt and clenched it lightly in your hands, "Jungkook... its okay... just... go home..." you said, halting between your sentence as you tried to hold in your tears.
Taking your hand, your father sent Jungkook a deathly glare, "I don't want to see you near my daughter again, got it?" he then turned towards you, "And you," he paused, "As punishment, you won't be able to see all your friends, including Suzy. No more tutoring."
Your eyes shot wide, "That's fucking ridiculous!" you talked back.
His grasp of your hand tightened the moment he heard you, "What did you say?"
Realizing that you talked back, you became afraid, "Nothing..." you mumbled, staring down onto the ground.


Looking back, you can see Jungkook walk towards you, his eyes filled with anger and his expression was stern. He grabbed your free arm that was not in the grasp of your fathers, making you halt in your tracks. Your father looked back seeing that Jungkook was still there.

"Let go of her," he demanded harshly, glaring into Jungkook's eyes.
The younger boy shook his head, "You shouldn't act like this to your daughter!" he yelled back at him.
Your eyes widened, mostly because you feared that Jungkook would get hurt as well, "What are you doing?"
Jungkook smiled at you for a second as he pulled your arm at the right moment when your father was distracted. You stood beside Jungkook who was still glaring at your father, "You shouldn't treat Ji Hyun so poorly like this."
Your father crossed his arms over his chest as he started to laugh uncontrollably like a maniac, "Why do you even try so hard protecting her?" he said, pointing at you, "Look at her, she looks pathetic right now-"
"She's not pathetic!" he screamed at your father, cutting him off from finishing his sentence.

This situation was all too familiar with you. It was like déjà vu but this time, you were older. The same situation happened ten years ago, that was when you first met Jungkook in that little park back in Busan.

"Ji Hyun, come back here this instant!" your father demanded loudly, stomping his foot on the gravel.
For a second, you looked at Jungkook who smiled and nodded his head. You gulped, preparing yourself, "No."
Your father's eyes suddenly widened. Your father scoffed, "What was that?"
"I said no!" you said once more, "I'm tired of you treating me like I'm a cyborg! You always treat me like shit even when I do something good!"
Smiling, Jungkook placed his hand on your head, "That's my girl," he said, patting you gently. He leaned closer to your ear whispering a plan that he just came up with, "On my signal, run and follow me, okay?"

Still having your eyes focused on your father, you nodded your head. Jungkook grabbed your hand and held it tightly. The moment he yelled 'go' you both ran in an instant. Your father was left at the front of your house, angry and a little surprised.
