Chapter 2: Date
After Jihoo bid good day to Jandi, Junpyo made his way to the porridge shop to talk to Jandi and ask her out.
"Geum Jandi, you haven't given me an answer yet. will go out with me tonight?"
Jandi had forgotten about what he had told before. All she could do was look down and say that "i have some where to be so im sorry I can't go out with you and besides since when did you have interest in taking out your sworn enemy?"
Goo Junpyo got angry and started to leave but She stopped him which somehow gave him hope but all Jandi could say was "I'm sorry but I can't go out with you because I have someone i like"
Junpyo's smile turned into a cold glare and left without another word
When Goo Junpyo left, Gaeul started teasing her friend saying that the reason why Jandi couldn't go out with Goo Junpyo was because by her prince charming had returned and was asking her out and she started blushing of the kiss he had given her on the cheek and on her lips.
later that day.
After the shift at the porridge shop, she made her way to school and of course to the stair well where she met Jihoo, he hadn't arrived yet so she had an opportunity to catch her breath from running and waited. Five minutes later he had the door open and turned around to see Jihoo dressed casually and was smiling at her.
" So you're not shouting any more these days?" was his greeting.
"oh, Sunbae you're here i was planning to leave if you didn't show up and besides there are no people at school so it might look awkard" she said feeling uneasy of the way he was looking at her.
"Geum Jandi?" Jihoo said in a serious voice.
"Yes sunbae?"
He came closer to her and lifted his hands and placed them on her arms and started rubbing them lightly up and down but due to Jandi's inexperience, she almost stepped back but Jihoo was quick enough to stop her and what surprised her was the way he was staring at her. After along stare looking at one another, Jandi felt shy and dropped her head but it seemed that this man had words to say to her and so he lifted her chin so she could look at him. After what felt like minutes of staring, Jihoo started leaning towards her lips and even he touched his forehead to hers while he used his thumb to rub it on her lips out of modest, Jandi stepped back and hit the wall and accidentally her lips parted and Jihoo took the liberty and pressed his lips on hers. He felt her shiver so he continued to kiss her of which Jandi didn't know but was doing his best.
After a few seconds, they broke away but not leaving each other entirely. Jihoo took advantage and started rubbing his tongue on her lips and she gasped and she later felt Jihoo tongue in her mouth but when she tried to pull away, he held her captive and taught her what to do. After exchange of that kiss which didn't take long, he started to pull away but not entirely. with one last soft peck on her lips he put some distance and looked away because he has never done something like that.
Jandi opened her eyes to look at the man who had said not to show her face again but he was kissing her and " why did you do that" the question came out harshly than she inteded. She looked away out of embarrassement. Jihoo didn't seem to notice that because he was having a hard time talking. Jihoo turned to her and started confessing what he was feeling since he went to Paris.
"Jandi-yah, for the first time i saw you, i knew that there was a bond between us but i couldn't point out what it meant only when i went to Paris, i was able to understand it and i i know you felt it otherwise you wouldn't have got down on your knees and begged Min Seo Hyun to stay for me. So that's why im here so that we allow this seed to grow. Will you go out with me tomorrow?"
After his speech, he looked at a shocked Jandi who had her mouth open.
"well...uh..." she didn't know what to say but Jihoo smiled at her and said if it was a yes. She nodded her head. Then Jihoo closed the distance between them and held her in his arms saying " I know this is all sudden but I hope you give me a chance to get to know you and you will get to know me". He felt her nod and pressed a kiss on top of her head. They stayed there for a few more minutes and he reluctantly released her. He looked at her and smiled.
The Following morning, Jandi prepared for her date. She leaped out of her bed and came out dressed in a mini skirt and a coat over her sweater. She glanced around for any signs of her intrusive family. She gave a sly smile as she approached the door, thinking she was free and clear. Suddenly, a bedroom door opened, followed by snickering. Jandi rolled her eyes and turned to see her family standing there grinning.
"I'm... just... going out for some exercises," she weakly lied, putting on an awkward smile.
"Dressed like that?" her dad teased
"You are going out with Jihoo hyung-nim, right?" Kang San interjected with a giggle.
how on Earth did they find out that I'm going out.
Jandi scrunched her face and sighed
"Isn't that skirt too long?"
"I'm leaving now" Jandi announced and they were grinning like mad. As she left she hard them saying that she will be the "granddaughter-in law of the former president of Korea.
she tighten her mouth and walked out while thinking of how crazy her family was about Jihoo, she was even more crazy about him.
Jandi met up with Jihoo at the agreed place and he said was taking her shopping. They went to the supermarket and bought a lot of carrots and vegetables.
They walked to the stables since they were near. Jihoo introduced her to his horse that Seo Hyun had given him as a Christmas gift. Jandi gaped "Wow, for me when I was little I went on a hunger strike for three days to get a puppy..."
Jihoo grinned. "How did it end?"
"I got my sense beaten back into me," she replied looking down
"How about a horse instead of a puppy?" Jihoo suggested. Jandi stared at him.
Jihoo lifted Jandi onto the horse and got on behind her. Giving her the reins, Jihoo instructed Jandi on how to guide the horse. Jandi felt her cheeks heat up when he rested his hands on the waist and pressed his cheek on hers while they rode.
Their date continued, and Jandi found herself comfortable with Jihoo. She was no longer nervous and she found herself smiling and they were getting to know each other. After walking in the city Jihoo offered her the helmet and took her on the motorcycle ride where they ended up on his home.
They arrived at a Hanok style house. Jandi glanced around and took a liberty to walk around praising something she has never seen and asked "where are we?"
"My house," Jihoo simply replied as she led her inside a very good and expensive immaculate home.
Jihoo gave a tour to Jandi and invited her to the kitchen to have dinner with him. As they neared the kitchen, Jandi spotted a man, old enough to be a grandfather who was preparing dinner.
"Grandpa", he called and went to hug him asking how his day was at the clinic.
"Haraboji, what are you doing here?" came Jandi's surprised voice.
Jandi, have you met my grandfather?"
"Well, yes your grandfather is a daily customer at our porridge shop"
After cleaning his hands, Yoon Seok young made his way to the couple standing there and called out "Jandi-yah" and patted her on the head while winking at his grandson.
"Have a seat my child, dinner will be severed" Jandi sat at the table opposite that of Jihoo. He kept on staring at her that didn't notice dinner had been served. Someone cleared his throat and started to eat.
Out of curiosity, grandfather asked how they met. And of course, Jihoo was talking because Jandi was feeling shy. After dinner, Jandi offered to help wash where grandfather agreed and Jihoo gave her a hand. After that Grandpa decided to excuse himself saying he was no longer young to stay out all night and bid them good night and said to enjoy their movie time.
Jihoo set up DVD player to watch movies and Jandi was enjoying herself and she realized she had to go. But before she could leave.
"Thank you sunbae, I had a good time."
"Jandi-yah, I also had a good time." he held both her hands. He used his thumb rubbing on her knuckles which was making Jandi all nervous and smiling shyly.
"Jandi-yah..."
"Yes"
Jihoo closed the distance and kissed her. The kiss was sweet and simple but when Jandi released a sigh into his mouth, he depended the kiss. He led her back to the couch and continued kissing each other. Jandi's hands were on her laps not knowing how to proceed until Jihoo pressed her head on the headrest of the couch and wound his arms around her waist. They pulled away. Jandi still had her eyes closed while Jihoo was staring at her smiling.
She opened her eyes and smiled shyly at him and said "Jihoo-yah"
Jihoo said he would take her home. As they got out,
"Goo Junpyo".
I decided not to separate Jihoo and his grandfather so it would be easier for both Jihoo and his grandfather to accept this commoner.
next up.
Goo Junpyo declares that Jihoo is no longer part of F4 and wants him out of school and also announces that Jandi will be his Girlfriend...
