"It's okay. I apologize for prying. I just want you to be happy," I whispered loud enough for him to hear.

Jungkook chuckles to himself, shaking his head. "You've never changed..."
I don't have the courage to ask what he means by that. I'm just glad he wasn't angry anymore.

    He drives into a parking lot. I observe my surroundings through the window.
     "Ay, we're at the mall."
     "Yup," He places his sunglasses on his eyes, steps out of the door, and closes it.

      "Haven't been at the mall for over a year..." I admit.
      "Really? Not even for fun or window shopping?" He asks.

"No, don't get me wrong. I love shopping. I love pretty things. But I ain't got the time to shop at places like here. I prefer thrift stores. There's killer deals there."

"Oh well we can go there instead if it makes you feel more comfortable." Jungkook gestures to the car, ready to hop in it.

I interrupt him. "No! I'm sure I'll find something that matches my style here. Plus there's so many people at the mall. I love being around so many people."

"Im actually the opposite. I feel a bit overwhelmed sometimes with the abundant amount of people ...but great! I'm glad you got something to look forward to." He walks beside me while I travel with my crutches. We enter the mall.

       "Where do you want to go first?" Jungkook gestures to the many stores around us.
        I scrunch my nose, unable to decide.

"You pick!"

       Jungkook nods. "Alright, why don't we go to....Gucci." He points to a random shop right across from us.

       "I'm pretty sure I've heard about that place. Sure!" I agree.
        There were guards with sunglasses outside the store. The store was classy looking, and glamorious clothing surrounded us.

       Jungkook went into the men's section, searching for clothes and I entered the women's side of the store.

Immediately, a grey sweater piqued my interest.
Ahh that's perfect and practical!
I checked the price tag... 1,300,000 South Korean won (about 1194 US dollars).
But the price wasn't practical. My face turned bright pink from shame. This shop clearly was not for me.

I went to the accessories section and saw a simple belt. The price tag displayed it to be 130,000 South Korean won (about 120 US dollars).

       Everything was so pricy for me. But I didn't want to make Jungkook feel embarrassed about picking a store that was out of my range.

After scavenging through all the accessories, I found a cute beanie on sale for 25,000 won (about 23 US dollars). I was planning on using maximum 50 dollars, today but I guess I should increase my budget.

     Immediately, I went to the register and paid for the beanie.

I finally went to the male's side of the store and saw Jungkook talking to the phone.
He was holding various articles of clothing, and without a second glance, he threw more on to his arm.

Jungkook seemed to be with in a discussion with someone.

"Yeah I get it. They like fancy clothes."
Jungkook noticed me and held a finger up to indicate he'd end the phone call soon.
