YN was walking through the khet with her friend. She was talking and joking with her friend but her mind was elsewhere, thinking about jungkook. It has been a while since she last heard from him.

YN: "What if he's too busy?...Maybe I should text him... No wait, then I sound too impatient....What if he is busy? He must be busy..." everyons seems to have work except me...

Shivangi: Right. You are lucky YN that you just need to say and your family done it... (Smile) I Sometimes feel so jealous and worried about you...

YN: (smile drop and frown) Why... what I did...?

Shivangi: That's why. You are doing nothing... You should think more about yourself. You should learn chores... socialize but instead you lock in room using phone 24/7 hours.. what will happen to you after marriage you don't even eat food...—

YN: (pout) Now I know why I'm single child. God knows You gonna scold me... like elder sister.

Shivangi: Aish!...I'm not scolding...just trying to put some reality in your his small brain... (Smack you lightly on head.)

YN scoff by sudden smack and run behind shivangi both chuckle.

Shivangi: Oi! look Imli..

(They find imli and shivangi start getting more while you spread your dupatta and imli fell on it, you both sit on bench and eat it. Shivangi smile sees you)

Shivangi: you know we're enjoying together after so long...I don't even remember when was the last time we...— you... know I missed it..

YN: (looks down)

Shivangi: promise me...You will spend more time with me like this...

YN: (Smile lightly) I will...

Shivangi: but you promised always just khokhla promise.

YN: I will...Sachi wala promise...

YN was sitting by there and eating an amrud while her friend was walking around. She was sitting and admiring the scenery when suddenly open WhatsApp on her phone. She look at jungkook's contact, the last time they chat was 8 days ago.

YN: "Should I text him?.... He's a prince and a CEO...he must be really busy.... He probably won't have time to reply me..."

YN debate in her mind for a moment before finally decided to quickly send him the photo she took of the peacock.

I was standing on set, getting my shirt changed when my phone buzzed. Excited, I quickly grabbed it and saw a message from her. I opened WhatsApp and my eyes widened at the photo—

I chuckled. He grinned like an idiot at her photo, his heart swelling. He quickly typed out a response.

[YN'S PHONE]

Ranaji. 
"Gorgeous view. Wish I was there with you. Be safe, okay?"

Manager: “Jungkook, what are you doing? It’s time to go,” .

Jk: “Ah, yes, sorry! Just a few seconds…”

[JUNGKOOK'S PHONE]

Misthidoi
thanks. I wish so. and don't worry I will be okay.

He felt warmth spread through him at her words. He quickly snapped a photo of the set—busy with lights, cameras, crew—and sent it to her. "This is where I am."

Misthidoi
“Busy? I disturbed you?” 

(He chuckled softly, shaking his head even though she couldn't see)

Ranaji
"Never too busy for you. You could never disturb me."

(He added a heart emoji before hitting send, then realized his manager was still waiting.)

Jk: "I'm coming, I'm coming!"

He hurried back to the set, his mind still on their conversation.

Jk: “I’m a grown man… How can I feel this way about a girl? A girl I’m falling for… a girl I’m marrying soon… a girl who will be my wife. God... I can’t wait— (phone rings) Jin hyung...

Jin: "You promised, didn’t you?"

He asked Jungkook in his usual cold tone, the tension thick in the air. Jungkook sighed before responding.

Jk: "Hyung—"

Jin: "Don’t call me that."

Jk: "I will. Just listen—"

Jin: "Listen to what? You’ve forgotten your promise! You said you would marry HER ONLY! What are you doing accepting another girl’s proposal?!"

Jk: (huffing) "Its was different I wasn't the same person! Why can’t you understand?! I can’t marry her—"

Jin: "So even your promises mean nothing now?! What a royalty you hold!"

Jungkook: (frustrated) "I promised to marry Lusy, and I will! Even if it breaks my heart. It’s not empty anymore, hyung."

Jin: "You better keep that promise." (He storms off.)

Jungkook ran a hand through his hair, lit a cigarette, and exhaled in frustration.

Since it was raining heavily, YN was taking the clothes off the terrace. The song is playing in the neighbor's house while they are weeding.

Bole choodi paayaliyaa bole...

(She start humming the song while taking off the cloths)

Aajaa doli leke aajaa saajnaa

Bole choodi paayaliyaa bole...

(She couldn't help but feel so free and cheerful that she starts dancing and couldn't even realise. The rain started only to make it more enjoyable)

Aajaa doli leke aajaa saajnaa

Haathon mein mehandi ho

Maang meri sindoori ho

Tere naam kaa kiya

Singaar ye singaar

Mere roop ki aayee bahaar

Ke dil pardesi ho gaya

O naachu odhani odh ke aaj—

She halt as got caught by his father who just seems to watching her. She immediately turned to pick clothes but realise all are wet. And heard his father chuckle he caressed her head and she hugged him hiding in embarrassment.

Dad: Aa... My bitiya... (he caress her head in embrace while continuing to laugh)

P A R I S

Tae: she looks like that!

RM: like what? (Raised brows)

(They were viewing the photo of YN that Ms. Jeon had sent to their family group. while they are in here on business trip)

Tae: Like... Laddu. That white laddu with syrup inside of it.

Jimin: That is Rasgulla. Stupid.

(they looks over and notices Jimin approaching as they are in the Paris hotel lobby; Jimin has settled in here for business since his parents passed away.

Tae: oh yea that's one. Rasgulla, she looks like Rasgulla... sweet and soft.

Jimin: "Rasgulla, that is what I used to call her." —(scowling) Who? (Confused)

(They begin to move toward the elevators through the corridor.)

RM: Jungkook's suitor. Have you not seen the picture that Aunty sent you?

(Jimin shook his head; he did not have time to check his phone when Taehyung handed it to him; the phone fell out of his hand and the screen cracked.)

Tae: Ahh My I phone!!

RM: The phone has fallen from your grasp. (Shook head)

Tae: oh. Ah, my phone... (soft) THAT IS NOT CONSOLING ME!! (yelled)

•°•°•°•°•°•

I walked into my room, smacking myself for being like this, I'm really buddhu! then fell back onto the bed, groaning in fake frustration. But my smile gave away my true feelings.

YN: “What is going on with me? I’m going crazy... crazy for him,” (I whispered, giggling softly.)

I turned to lie on my stomach, burying my face in the pillow, silently whining and giggling. Then my phone vibrated, and I shot up.

Ranaji
Don’t forget to dry yourself, or you’ll catch a cold.

How he knows I— “Papaaaa!!!” I shouted, realizing he must have spilled the beans.My heart skipped a beat as I read his message.

Ranaji
My cute dancer...

I bit my lip, pleased with the pet name but also a little embarrassed.

YN text: How do you know?

Jk text:  Let’s just say I have my sources, and one of them is your father...

YN text: Aa... I knew it... 😅 How are you?

Ranaji
good, just glad I could watch my girl dance in the rain, How are you, my little rain dancer? Have you taken a bath yet, or are you still lying on your wet bed?"

I sat up, scowling. How he knows— “You guessed it right.”

Ranaji
"Of course, I did. You're too careless sometimes. Okay, go take a bath, and then we'll talk more, alright? And don't forget to wear warm clothes and rest well tonight."

YN text: it's not night here...

Jk text: "Oh, right. I forgot about the time difference. Well, whenever it is, just take care of yourself, okay? I worry about you. And... I miss you."

YN text: me2

Ranaji
Good. Because I miss you like crazy. Now go on, before I start worrying even more. Text me when you're all dry and cozy, okay? I'll be waiting."

I smile and about to respond but suddenly phone slipped from hand I immediately picked it but gasp it's  accidentally on video calling...he appears as he picked up with my heart skips.

Jk:  what happened? Are you okay?!" (Concern)

YN: uh...oh it accidentally fall on floor and got you call... (I muttered as still feeling heart doing garba we don't really do face times...)

Jk: (His face relaxed, and he laughed softly I love this sound) "Oh, thank goodness. You scared me for a moment." (He paused, his gaze intensifying on me) "But now that you're on the call, don't hang up, okay? Let me see you. (I nod) Do you need someone to come and give you a hand?

I bit my lip, unable to hide my smile. I was foolish to believe that my future spouse is not a tease.

YN: No... I can manage... with my two hands. 😃”

Jk: Oh really? Are you sure you don’t need any assistance?

YN: Yeah.

Jk: oh....

Huh. Whats with this sudden dry reply is he expecting me to play along. Is he making an attempt to flirt? I could feel him trying to mask his excitement with disappointment. Aish.

YN: “And... um, how will you help sitting overseas?”

Jk: (he smile teasing) You think just because I'm overseas I can't help you?

I love reading novels and at this point I don't know if I should curse myself because I don't left so innocence after reading it.

Jk: “Oh, I see... so the idea excites you, huh?” (he tease must have seen my pink cheeks)

At this point, how can I keep it closed?

YN: “And... not you?” (I shot back, feeling bold...I still do not know how to bend over. you know... proud of myself for defeating him in a tease. No, he would be surprised. Most likely, he was thinking— )

Jk: “You really want to know?”

he asked tilted his head Playing with his piercing— wait he got pierced when? He chuckled silently sees my eyes on his lips— oh bhagwan! He must be thinking I —I could feel my heart pounding in anticipation of what he would say. 'How will he explain?' My eyes grew wide You are pagal ladki.

Jk: “ I will, when you will be here...You should probably change into something dry, now sweetie. And dry your hair too…”

(I stare at him as he leans back in his chair, fingers in his long hair. — I swear I have things for man's silky hair. I have wanted to touch it for ever. but as I was single, I never had the chance.)

YN: “Um... okay... will you wait?”

Jk: “Of course. I’m not going anywhere.”

As I stood up to change, I gave him a smile, but then I glanced over and noticed his title head.

YN: “Bad manners…”

Jk: “Uh Sorry, sorry... I was looking at the vase…” (He seemed embarrassed) and give his neck a scratch before sipping water and averting his eyes for a moment.)

I chuckled and finally came back in a white and pink floral dress.u I could tell he was paying close attention to me as his eyes grew wide. Is this how ugly I look? Or—

Jk: “You look amazing. You look great in that dress."

YN: “Thank you...

No man compliments my appearance. No man got to see me. Remember, I am the house bird. he shook his head.

I nodded and started drying my hair, chatting about random things, but he seemed lost in thought. I was using lip balm, bindi, kajal, and combing my hair when I realized that I could not even recall the last time I used cream or moisture. It is not as though I am the beauty queen—though I probably am. However, my skin is sensitive. But I can survive without feeling dull, which is my biggest flex.

Jk: I want you to always feel confident in your beauty and never have any doubts about it.

Could it be that my ear is getting better or is he really saying that? The way he spoke touched me and I could tell he cared. I felt like a garden of roses was growing inside my heart. He looked out for me! I felt so valued.

YN:  “And um, it means a lot coming from you…”

Just then, I heard my mom calling.

YN: “Um... we’re going to attend the neighbor’s reception party. Can I talk later?”

Jk: “Oh... okay. I understand...”( I was about to hang up) “YN…”

YN: “Ji?”

Jk: “Wear that dress again sometime... just for me, okay?

My cheeks, oh my cheeks— I bit my lip and blushed slightly, trying not to look crazy. He should not know that his little remarks were like firecrackers on my stomach, or else he would use a missile the next time.

I was in disbelief that I had discovered someone so similar to him. He was like the answer to my prayers, and I was overwhelmed with gratitude and blessings. Anticipating what lay ahead, a smile stretched across my face.

YN: Okay....My highness... (smile)
