Internet Love Affair (JJK Valentine's Day Special)

4:41 pm - 180206

School ended early today, so you decided to take advantage of it to go and buy some chocolates. You did promise Jungkook, after all. Once you had the chocolates, you could ask him which high school he went to. 

You went to the shopping centre with your friend, who was only too excited to be following you. With all her questions, you almost regretted telling her where you were going. Almost.

"I can't believe you wanna buy chocolate for a guy other than your dad and brother and Ye-jun! How cute! Fancy chocolate too."

"So-yeon, it's not that exciting."

"Is too! Who is he? Your boyfriend?"

"No."

"Aw, you can tell me, you know! Has he met your brother?"

You shrugged, exiting the subway station and entering the shopping centre. As So-yeon had so kindly pointed out before the two of you left school, it was pretty packed for a weekday afternoon just as she predicted. The Valentine's Day promotions were everywhere.

How unfortunate.

You should've gone out to buy Jungkook chocolates sooner.

"So you have any specific shop you wanna go to?"

"I just wanna buy chocolate that's fancy."

"You must like him a lot since you're planning to buy something expensive."

"I want him to be able to brag about it, that's all."

"Cute! Anyway, I'm meeting my boyfriend over at the cafe. You wanna come with?"

"Not now. Maybe when I've found something, I'll come join you for dinner."

So-yeon waved as she ran off, and you watched her go. 

You found the shopping centre directory and looked over all the stores. Something fancy, something fancy, something fancy... A famous chocolate brand caught your eye and you immediately went to find the store.

There.

You huffed a little at the sheer number of girls the store attracted for Valentine's Day, but you steeled yourself and made your way into the crowd. You did promise Jungkook, after all.

Jungkook said that he didn't have much of a sweet tooth but he'd eat chocolate if someone gave it to him. Hmm, so maybe chocolate that was a little more bittersweet?

You tried your best to take a look at all the store had to offer, dodging hordes of girls rushing around and older ladies comparing prices. 

What was that?

Chocolate-coated potato chips?! That sounded perfect. 

You quickly made your way over and snatched a bag, seeing how chocolate-covered potato chips was apparently a popular choice for Valentines's Day. You stood in the long, long line leading up to the cashier and waited.
