Kim Taehyung, probably one of the most handsome men of all time was telling me that I'm special. "What do you mean?" I didn't knew that I should jump with excitement or just sleep due to the vague statement.

"We're here." He diverted my attention. I casted my eyes down as he sat on the bench. "You should tie your laces." he remarked but I either way shrugged it off.

"They are short, I won't trip." I said whilst taking my laptop out of the bag and handing it to him. "Okay so just collect the research stuff, mabye email it to me and then I'll make a presentation and we're done with this." he said in a go and my eyes widened a little.

"Listen let's just divide everything. I really don't wish to do all the research alone." I started fidgeting my fingers and got up and then I tripped.

I was waiting for my back to hit the land and waiting for the time where I would screech out of pain and when Taehyung would have pity on me and laugh his ass out. But that never happened.

A pair of arms encircled my waist and now I realised that it was pretty hot today. I could bet that my cheeks were redder than ever as Taehyung's large eyes were staring right into my soul, he was just inches away from my face and before we could process anything further a very familiar voice interrupted us both.

"I didn't know you guys were dating." I side eyed and saw Doyoung standing with an imperturbable expression spread on his face.

"No Doyoung it's just- you're just overthinking." I stuttered my way through the statement. Me and Taehyung looked like an inseparable couple right now, "Taehyung you can leave me now." my voice was like it was stuck in my throat but it still came out to be audible.

"I see, well you forgot the book you lent me. Have a nice day. I'll catch up with you later." Doyoung trailed off whilst handing me my book as Taehyung just continued to keep himself away from laughing. Doyoung left without saying a word leaving us dumbstruck and in an awkward situation.

"Such a heartbreaker." Taehyung remarked as I bent down to tie my shoelaces. "How would he break my heart when I never liked him romantically?" I scoffed and picked up my bag.

"Well i know you like him-" he said but i cut him off. "Platonically." he did a little head tilt, I bet because he was too puzzled. Cute.

"Wanna walk till my society, it's just there." I pointed my index finger to my east side to a tall building. He showed me his boxy smile which was contagious on another level. He picked up his bag and chose to lightly walk with me through the busy cityside. The walk was silent, we exchanged very few words but it was soothing and almost relaxing. Taehyung was surely not the guy I perceived him to be. Rather than a usual f-boy who was hot like fuck and had an attitude, he was a warm hearted person inside.

Whilst reaching the apartment i saw Seoyun on the couch, all set. Like she was going somewhere. A deep sigh left my lips as I opened the fridge to fill my stomach with the Kimchi Seoyun made earlier.

"Where were you?" she asked me as I stuffed more food in my mouth.

"University where else." I barely managed to speak.

"Hmm, anyways we have to go to the salon. You remember right?" it was completely out of my head. All I wanted to do was lay in my bed and sleep like there is no tomorrow.

"You go, I like my chocolate brown hair." a yawn escaped from my mouth and Seoyun pulled my hand. "You're coming with me that's it."

"Okay okay, let me floss my mouth at least." I quicken my steps to the washroom. After five minutes the apartment was locked and we walked swiftly towards the salon. The place was giving no less silver spoon vibes and the rich brats coming and exiting the salon just assured that I would not be on good terms with my bank account to afford a haircut from a place like this. The original plan for today was to go to Seoyun and tell her about how my day went but Taehyung and Doyoung gave me enough boy problems puzzling how I will even comprehend everything in front of Seoyun so I just went with her.

"Okay I know you're rich but you very well know that I like to pay my own money.'' I grabbed Seoyun's arm and stopped her midway. Without a word being said she lightly flaunted the tickets of a free haircut. Right, we won them long back in a contest we participated for killing time. A squeal escaped our lips but a lady in her mid thirties interrupted our happy time.

"How can I help you?" a woman who must've been the same age as us and drastically had matching features like Jin diverted our attention towards herself.

"Uhm- we are here for a haircut." I said and saw her name tag, it read Jisoo. She was pretty, and when I say it, I mean it.

She made us sit and she had a smile on her face the entire time. "So, which type of haircut?" she asked me and took a peek of my face.

"A simple trim I suppose." I smiled and she put her hands on my shoulders.

"Yaah! Get bangs." no bangs please, I don't wanna look like those sweet cute girls who in reality are just cruel. Moreover the heat on my forehead because of bangs was traumatizing.

"No." I said stubbornly. "Fringes?" Seoyun hopefully said and I nodded my head yes. After twenty minutes I was all set to be released. Jisoo had magic, my simple straight hair looked better than before. More organized than disheveled and the fringes just added to the fact that I looked better.

"How do you do that?"
