Author's POV:

"Goodmorning, Mr Kim." You bowed as Taehyung looked at you saying, "Goodmorning. Did you sleep well?"
"Yea. I did. You?" You asked as he nodded focusing back on his work. He opened his mouth to say something but stopped looking down. You frowned but decided not to push him and said, "I'll bring your coffee then." He nodded looking at you leave his cabin.
"Should I tell her... Ah... I shouldn't! Mom will make a huge fuss. She's already bothering me so much, she'll scare the heck out of this woman." Taehyung sighed remembering how his mom was talking to him last night about inviting you over to their house. But since you both recently started dating, Taehyung wasn't sure if it was right. It was going to be a complete month soon but boy wasn't pretty sure about it yet. 

He sighed but coughed awkwardly pretending to focus on work as you walked inside serving him his coffees. You walked towards the cabinets and took out the gummy bear packet and placed it in front of him saying, "My morning work's done, right?" He nodded smiling as gestured for you to sit on the couch. You frowned but nodded walking towards the couch and sitting down as he walked towards you sitting beside you saying, "Y/Nah.."
"Yes?" You asked as he spoke, "Next week... should we go on a date?" He asked as you replied, "Why are we going on dates every week?" He gulped looking here and there as you looked at him suspiciously asking, "Mr Kim? Are you okay? Do you want to tell me something?"
"No... yes. I mean- yeah, no. Not really but yes." You sighed saying, "Just say it then! Since when did you even hesitate to say anything?"

He looked at you with a 'Shut up' look and spoke, "Let's just go on a date."
"Where?"
"My house."

"What..?" You asked a little baffled as he spoke, "My mom wants to meet you. She got to know we're dating... and she's excited to meet you. I told her you might feel uncomfortabl-"
"I'm fine." You said as he eyed you asking, "Sure? You aren't lying?"
"Why would I? Since when did I bother about pleasing you..? Even if I like you a lot, I didn't. Moreover, it's good to meet your mom! I should make a good impression on her though I probably made one already." You said smiling proudly as he let out a sigh in disbelief.
"She's much weirder than you can ever imagine. She's very excited and I can't understand why she's so curious about you. She's never been that curious about my grades back then." He spoke rolling his eyes as you looked at him saying, "Mr Kim. Do you realize it was a good thing she did?"

"Huh?" He asked as you spoke, "When my mom got to know about my grades back then... she beat me up with a spoon. That was so horrifying... it's good Mrs Kim didn't ask you about your grades." He looked at you before saying, "Is that so? Not that you were a complete monkey?"
"Mr Kim!" You whined as he chuckled saying, "Tch, what are you even trying to say? Is that supposed to comfort me or something?"
"I don't know... I'm just saying you're lucky! So don't sulk!" You said as he smiled a little saying, "You don't even know anything."
"What should I know?" You asked as he looked at you for a while before looking away.

"Knowing it or not, it doesn't make a difference. What matters is that you come to the point now." He said as you nodded. 

"So... are you coming?" He asked as you nodded replying, "I'm sure I can handle it well~" He nodded sighing saying, "Then... you have a week. Think about it. Change your mind if you want." You shook your head confidently saying, "Hah! I won't."

---1 week later

"Can I go back home?" You asked Taehyung while standing beside him in front of his front door. He scoffed saying, "After bluffing for an entire week, you want to escape? NOW?" You sighed saying, "I suddenly feel nervous."
"Did you ever date?" He asked as you shook your head saying, "No guy ever accepted my proposal. Not my fault their taste was bad." He rolled his eyes saying, "Good. You're only my girlfriend then. So chill. Cause I never dated before as well... so this is my mom's first time meeting my first girlfriend. Don't worry, she won't eat you." You chuckled looking away.

Suddenly, you felt a hand holding yours as you looked at him flustered. He looked at you saying, "Let's go." 
"Mom we're home," Taehyung spoke entering the house as Mrs Kim came running. She gasped running towards you and pushing Taehyung away hugging you making you confused.
"Ahh! Y/N! I'm seeing you after so long!! How have you been?" She asked as you replied, "I'm good. How have you been?" You asked smiling as she smiled back saying, "Of course bad. You know well who troublesome my son can be... he's your boyfriend after all!"
"I agree." You said as Taehyung scoffed. You all got inside as Mr Kim came out. You bowed at him saying, "Hello, Mr Kim."
"Just call me father." He said as you thinned your lips awkwardly nodding. 

"Ah! Dad! Mom!!" Taehyung whined as they chuckled together.
"Well... it's the first time my son's ever told me he likes someone. And he's even dating you now... Ah! I'm so glad." Mr Kim spoke as you smiled saying, "Right... it's very unlike him to like someone, right? I'm an exception... gladly." They both chuckled saying, "No wonder you both make a great couple!!" 

You giggled as Taehyung just eyed everyone sighing. You sat on the sofa looking here and there. The house was decorated well with warm-toned lights, beautiful antics, statues and decorations while the detailed wall prints and wall trims were added to the look of the aesthetic house. 
"This house is so pretty." You said as Taehyung sighed eyeing you. Mrs Kim chuckled saying, "I'm glad! We customized this interior by ourselves."
"I must say your choice is so good!" You spoke impressed as Mr Kim chuckled. 

"Ah, why don't you take her to your room, TaeTae bear?" Mrs Kim asked as you choked on your juice. Taehyung's eyes widened as he looked at his mom saying, "Mom!" Mr Kim let out a loud laugh as you laughed out loud not being able to keep quiet. You looked at Taehyung to see him glaring at you, "TaeTae bear.." You mumbled trying not to laugh.
"Aigo! It's cute, isn't it??" Mrs Kim asked as you nodded saying, "You must adore him so much!"
"Right... we've been barely able to give him enough time during his childhood because we were so busy with work. But... though time has passed, we want to relive those moments." You nodded at Mrs Kim's statement. Taehyung got up saying, "Y/N. Follow me.." 

You nodded following him as Mr and Mrs Kim was in the living room sitting and talking. 
"Come back soon!" 
"Don't end up doing something else!" 

"Oh my god. Yah! Close your ears!" Taehyung scolded you as you scoffed saying, "Why are you overreacting?! Isn't it obvious we'll hear some of these remarks? Every couple does."

"You're still young. Keep your ears closed." He said as you said, "You're the one who asked me to talk to you casually saying I'm not that younger than you and... if you're that old, why are you still called TaeTae bear?" You mumbled the last line inaudible while chuckling as Taehyung looked at you confused. He opened his room door speaking, "Don't scream- I know my choice is very great and all but do-" 

He was speaking but his face straightened up as you ignored him walking in and spoke, "Woah... why is this room so weird?" He frowned coming towards you and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"It looks too good to be your style." You said as he walked towards you offended and spoke, "Is that how you should talk to your boyfriend and boss?!" You thinned your lips saying, "I'm just saying it's good! In your style." 
"Yah!" He spoke as you said, "Fine.. sorry. I won't blabber again. But this room is not bad. Did you customize it yourself?" You asked staring at the bed as he nodded. 

"Woah. This mattress looks soft." You said poking the mattress as he eyed you saying, "What are you doing?"
"It looked soft." You said as he sighed saying, "I forgot you had your weird traits." He mumbled as you sighed saying, "Mr Kim."
"Taehyung." He said as you chuckled saying, "TaeTae bear." 
"Yah!" He scolded you as you giggled saying, "You scolding me doesn't change the fact that your nickname is TaeTae bear~" He walked towards you with a glare as you kept teasing him by laughing. 
"Stop it!" He said as you replied, "It's funny."

"Ugh... don't even tell this to anyone!" He spoke as you replied, "I suddenly want to though. Jungkooksshi... would love to hear this news, since he loves weird news." He frowned asking, "Why him out of all people?" You looked at him confused as he replied, "Why do you keep acting like you're close with him? AH... shouldn't you know your distance from him?" Taehyung asked as you thinned your lips saying, "Huh? What are you saying?" 
"You should get a huge smack on your head for recklessly doing and saying whatever you want." You thinned your lips at his statement and said, "What do you mean...?" 
He glared at you before leaning closer to you making your body work up as he spoke, "Do Y/N. Do you know that I hate the fact you're always hanging around him?! I mean... it's fine to be a little friendly but WHY always him?! I hate it." 

"Are you jealous or something..?" You asked as he spoke, "What if I am?"
"That's awkward... he's your employee after all." You said as he scoffed saying, "So? He's still a man." You thinned your lips saying, "But you're my boyfriend and I like you... shouldn't that be enough?"
"Dumbo." He mumbled staring at you as you frowned staring at him. He leaned in closer to your face and pecked your lips saying, "You're right. Though he bothers me, I know you like me so... I'll let you both off the hook." He sat on the bed moving his hands on the mattress.
"Are you crazy...?" You asked as he said, "Shut up. Sit here." He patted the area beside him as you frowned before sitting beside him. He stared at you for a while saying, "Yah... I think I like you more every day. I'm starting to wonder if I still... just like you or if I'm in love with you."
