FORTY TWO

                                    

                                          
"Kim Byeol, let's...."

                          
Byeol cut his words as she already suffocated.

                          
"No, we can't! You're dating someone right now! This is wrong!" She basically shouted it out 
                          
and

                          
There was Jungkook flustered. 

                          
"What are you talking about?" He flinched and stepped back.
                          
"Aren't you gonna ask me out?" 
                          
"No. I just wanna ask you to cycle with me." Jungkook bursted his laughter. "Kim Byeol, let's cycle."
                          
"Errr... yah... you..." Byeol almost died in embarrassment.
                          
"I will prepare the bicycle. You go change." Jungkook threw his wink before left the kitchen.
                          
"Yah! Jeon!" Byeol bit her lower lip. Jungkook still the same boy who made her heart in miserable and herself insane.

"Yah! Don't tell me you already forget how to ride it properly!" Jungkook shouted in distance as he found out Byeol still in front of their house while Jungkook already 5 meters away.
                          
"No!! I'm just.." Byeol sighed. She also disappointed of herself. She didn't touch any bike since Jungkook left and now, she even failed to balance herself on the bicycle. She wondered how in the past, she and bicycle could act as one. "I am sorry.." 
                          
Byeol felt bad. Bicycle is one of the tool that tie both of them. Byeol, Jungkook and bicycle. Everyone knows that legendary trio. She should not fail at this. Cycling should made things better between them. A way to reunite them. 
                          
"I am upset." Jungkook cycled back to Byeol. "I never leave bicycle after I left. It is like the only method to make me feel that we are still together in someway." Jungkook low tone voice was real. He was extremely disappointed. 
                          
"It's not like that... I just..." Byeol felt guilty af.
                          
Jungkook sighed. "You keep forgetting me, huh?"
                          
"I told you...it's not like that!! Cycling alone make me sadder, it can make me cry hard as I miss you so much! I found there is no fun to cycle without you anymore! It only fun if you are around! I need you the most, understand?!!!" Byeol almost shed some tears due to the shouting, disappointment also guilt. She felt awful.
                          
Jungkook was stunned seeing that. He felt happy when Byeol mentioned that she need him the most. 
                          
Feeling satisfied, Jungkook pulled her into his embrace, comforting almost crying Byeol. "Okay, okay. You're forgiven. I understand."
                          
Byeol softly pushed him away. "I am sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." She got rid of the remaining tears on her cheek. 
                          
"Rewards as you felt so sorry. Here, hop on." Jungkook offered her a ride at the back seat. 
                          
"For real?" Byeol asked. 
                          
"I am working out nowadays. 100 times stronger than you." Jungkook boasting. "Come on. Leave your bicycle there."
                          
Byeol slowly sat on the back seat. She was a bit flustered where to place her hand to hold onto.
                          
"Yah, hold onto me." Jungkook started to nag. Byeol only grabbed a bit of his shirt.
                          
"What's wrong with you?" Jungkook then suddenly grabbed both Byeol's arms and dragged them circling tight his waist. "Good."
                          
Byeol secretly blushed. Jungkook well-built body is too perfect. She sensed the six pack of Jungkook's abs which also amazed her. Jungkook already became a man. While her? Still like an immature girl who don't know what to do with her life.
