I try my best to forget all my weaknesses and move on with life but sometimes I just can't stop myself from breaking down, I get tired of the fake smile I put on my face every single day. I do cry, I cry a lot but I never cry in front of others cause I know if I do then they'll pity me and I won't let that happen no matter what

I washed my face, though my eyes are still red and puffy due to all that crying. It's been a while so I think the clothes have already dried since I have left them on the rooftop to dry in the morning. I inhaled and exhaled deeply.

''Kaja!'' And I left for the rooftop.

I took the stairs which seemed never-ending and after a while, I reached the rooftop. I felt like I just won a lottery after climbing all those stairs. I slowly opened the door to the rooftop and entered the vacant place, I always love coming here whenever I'm feeling down or simply for refreshment.

''The weather is perfect today,'' I said smiling and looking at the beautiful sky. I walked towards the clothes that were hanging on the wire and started collecting them one by one when I noticed something, there was a faint figure leaning on the railing of the rooftop and was facing the view.

I don't know if I was hallucinating or not, as I'm not scared of ghosts, I walked towards it to make sure what it was. As I took small steps and went closer to it, it became clearer. I stopped on my track, my eyes widened and my heartbeat became faster.

I surely am not scared of ghosts but I'm scared of what's in front of me. Jeon Jungkook. I slowly turned around and was about to continue what I was doing but.

''I didn't expect you to be a stalker you know?" He said still looking at the view.

SHIT. Does he have eyes at the back of his head? How did he know I'm there? Was I that loud? No, I wasn't.

I mean this is totally unfair cause I have never succeeded at escaping from this type of situation ever in my entire life, like literally never, that day Soyeon caught me and now him. I stopped dead on my track and slowly turned around.

''N-no, I was just collecting the clothes I left here for drying.'' I said only answering his question only and not daring to say something extra. He just nodded and slowly turned around and once he did I was struck hard by his unrealistic beauty.

The sun was setting and the whole sky turned orangish-red.

I could clearly see his hazel brown colored eyes, his mysterious dark orbs looked like they had many secrets hidden in them, his skin was a white peachy color with a hint of tan, his hair was a mixture of curly and straight strands, his figure was perfect even though I don't know if he has abs or not, his lips were thin, plump and pink, his hair was the color of milk chocolate and Offfffff my eyes are stinging. Too much high-quality stuff, my eyes can't seem to accept it.

With that view and the background surrounding him, looks like Mrs. Jeon didn't lie about his visuals after all. I just kept staring at him without uttering a single word until.

''I know I'm unbelievably handsome, but stop looking at me like that, it's creepy.'' He said looking at me.

I snapped out of it, I could feel my face becoming red because of embarrassment. I just had a panic attack and quickly looked away, took a deep breath, and bowed towards him.

''I'm gonna leave now, call me if you need something,'' and with that, I quickly collected the clothes and rushed down.

Jungkook's POV

I came here after a very long time, as I just came back recently I still couldn't get rid of the jet lag and because of that I slept in almost all day today and my head is spinning because of that at the moment. I remember that before, the rooftop was my most favorite place to visit in this entire house and I used to come here every now and then for refreshment.

So I decided to come to the rooftop but I had to face various challenges for doing that, I had to climb up the long, very long flight of stairs, I couldn't feel my legs anymore once I reached the entrance to the rooftop, and had to take a moment to catch my breath but once I opened the door, it was worth climbing all those stairs. Nothing changed, everything was still in its usual and this place still knows how to calm me down, I smiled looking at how the view is also the exact same.

I started having flashbacks of some of the beautiful memories I had with this rooftop when I heard the door of the rooftop opening.

''The weather is perfect today,'' and almost immediately I recognized the voice cause the first thing that came to my mind when I heard that voice was.

''ARE YOU BLIND, CAN'T YOU SEE THERE IS A LIVING HUMAN BEING STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU?!!!!!'' Like gosh, no one ever screamed at me like that before in my entire life, not even eomma.

I heard the strings moving and after a while, it stopped moving then I heard footsteps coming towards my way, and when it was close enough.

'' I didn't expect you to be a stalker you know?" I said without turning around.

I heard the footsteps stopping and for a moment, everything was silent except for the birds that were singing peacefully. And finally, after a while she spoke.

''N-no I was just collecting the clothes I left here for drying,'' I smiled a bit at how she was stuttering at her words, she probably did not see this coming. I just nodded and slowly turned around and the first thing I saw was her face.

She is, pretty.

Her face was lit by the tangerine color of the sky. I slowly analyzed all her features and seriously I couldn't have even guessed it in my wildest dreams that she was a maid if mom didn't inform me. I went to my friend's house, they also have maids, I mean I'm not saying that they were ugly but they weren't this pretty either.

I just realized that I've been looking at her like a creep for a long time but when I looked at her I saw that even she was looking at me and I took that as a chance to avoid what I did.

''I know I'm unbelievably handsome, but stop looking at me like that, it's creepy.'' I noticed how her face slowly turned red out of embarrassment. LOL

She quickly looked away and once again everything went silent and then she just bowed.

''I'm gonna leave now, call me if you need something,'' With that she quickly took the clothes and left the rooftop, almost tripping in the process.

She's weird sometimes.

End of Jungkook's POV

I quickly left the clothes in the room where I'll first iron them before keeping them in the closet, quickly ran to my room, jumped on the bed, covered my mouth with a pillow and screamed.

''EMBARRASSING!!!!!!!"
