"skyscraper, what are you doing to me?"

minjae's point of view

i felt my heart nearly leap out of my chest as i turned around and realized just how close jaehyun was to me, and more importantly, how tall he was.

"jaehyun you're a skyscraper." i whispered in awe, eyes wide as i looked at his face.

he chuckled and stood straight up, since he had been partially crouching before.

"and you're a munchkin." he replied, patting the top of my head with his right hand.

i noticed that he had flowers in his left hand and he instantaneously handed them to me while smiling from ear to ear.

"i got you these on the way here so that's why i was late sorry." jaehyun explained sheepishly.

i nodded and took the flowers from his hands gently, my hand just barely grazing his.

"thank you jaehyun, and no worries." i whispered softly him, feeling my face heat up.

"you're welcome minjae."

"should we go inside now?" he asked

"yeah, i'm starving."

we walked up to the front door of mcdonalds and jaehyun held the door open for me, i whispered a quiet thank you to him before stepping inside.

he followed after me and we walked to the fronr counter, getting in line behind what looked like a single mom and her son.

after the woman attempted to pay for her and her son's food her card was declined.

"i'm sorry ma'am but your card was declined." the woman at the cash register said while staring at the woman sympathetically.

"i'm so sorry, here let me use another card." the tired-looking woman said as she began to dig through her large purse.

"i must've left them at home." the woman whispered in shock.

"mommy what are we going to eat then?" her little boy asked her as he tugged on the sleeve of her bulky sweater.

"i don't know baby." she whispered back and kissed him on the head, quickly apologizing to the cashier before grabbing her son's little hand and beginning to walk away.

my heart ached at the sight of them not being able to pay for their food and jaehyun seemed to notice me frowning.

suddenly jaehyun opened his mouth to speak.

"ma'am may i pay for your food?" he asked her before she could walk further away.

her son's face lit up and he began tugging on his mom's sleeve again, whispering "say yes."

"yes please, and thank you so much." she replied hesitantly.

jaehyun smiled at her and got his wallet out, picking out his debit card and paying for her food.

the woman whispered a quiet thank you to him and bowed as jaehyun proceeded to enter his pin into the small machine he inserted his card in.
