YN POV:
Everyone said I should learn how to cook, but I'm not some maid. I always used to say, "I'll learn after marriage, it won’t take long." Now that I’m married, it’s time to learn.
I picked up my phone and started scrolling through YouTube to watch cooking videos. It's been three days since our wedding. The first night, I fell asleep because of travel and exhaustion. The second day was spent meeting his family, friends, and even some of his celebrity friends. But since I don't speak Korean, I mostly felt like a stone, not understanding much. I want to learn Korean and become a better version of myself. It’s time to stop being lazy and change, because now I have to learn and grow every day. Ynie!
I lay on the bed, one side of my body propped up, watching cooking videos. I can cook, but I don’t know the measurements or ingredients.
Jungkook: (After hearing the door lock sound) Who are you texting... your boyfriend?
YN: Yeah... co-husband.
(Jungkook bites his inner cheek. Despite knowing it's just playful banter, he sits beside her and watches her. He chuckles silently before turning her around.)
Jungkook: Hungry?
YN: Hmm, no... I was just watching it.
Jungkook: You don’t have to watch it. You know that, right? You don’t need to worry about learning to cook...
YN: But I will learn.
(Jungkook places both hands between them, looking at her.)
Jungkook: You’re stubborn, misthi... Being stubborn isn’t bad, but listen to me, okay?
YN: Please?
Jungkook: We have over 100 chefs.
(He stands up to change his clothes. YN sits up pouting. He’s always like this, but how will I learn if he keeps doing this?)
YN: Rana... (whining slightly, she gets up from the bed and moves towards him, holding his shoulder) Look, please, cooking is a basic thing everyone should know.
Narrator POV:
(Jungkook stares at her.)
YN: Don’t give me that look, you look scary. I just want to cook for you, please, please, Ranaji, mere pyare ache pati ji... I will cook for you, I will feed you—
Jungkook: (sighs) Fine.
(She smiles.)
Jungkook: But only if you eat the vegetable salad and all that protein I gave you...
YN: That’s cheating.
(She sits back down and sees him heading toward the bathroom. Moments later, he returns wearing only a towel and shirtless. She looks away, but a question pops into her head. She watches him as he wipes his hair.)
YN: Soniye...
Jungkook: Boliye...
(Her heart skips a beat, and her eyes widen slightly. He chuckles silently.)
YN: Umm... leave it... it’s not a good question. (She mutters.)
He smirks at her mumbling, sensing she's about to ask something she finds embarrassing. Her reaction to his shirtless state doesn’t go unnoticed.
Jungkook: “Go ahead and ask,” (encourages, towel still in hand)
YN: “Don’t judge, okay?”
Jungkook: “I won’t. Just ask.”
YN: “Um...Why do men sleep in towels after marriage?” (stammers)
Jungkook: (chuckles, shaking his head) “That’s what you were worried about? It’s simple—it's comfortable after a shower. The ultimate lazy choice.”
YN: “Oh...” (murmurs, slightly embarrassed)
Jungkook: “Anything else on your mind? I’m an open book,” he says, leaning back on the bed.
YN: “For now, that’s all,” (avoiding his gaze)
Jungkook: “You’re overthinking it. You don’t need to be a ‘perfect wife’ overnight,” (he reassures her) “Just enjoy being married. You’re perfect as you are. If you want to learn to cook, I’m here to help.”
YN: “Okay...” (softly)
He gently touches her cheek, relieved she understands.
Jungkook: “By the way, that question was pretty innocent,” (teases)
YN: “I’m innocent...” (defends)
Jungkook: “Oh really? A good wife wouldn’t ask such naughty questions,” (laughs)
YN: “I was just curious...” (insists)
Jungkook: “Curious, huh? I should’ve expected that from my ‘innocent’ wife,” (he says with a smirk)
YN: “Nothing else, okay? Don’t think dirty—”
(He chuckles again, leaning closer, his voice teasing)
Jungkook: “Can you blame me? You asked about men in towels, misthi. It’s hard not to think that way.”
(He inches closer, his breath warm against her cheek)
Jungkook: “So, how innocent are you really?”
YN: “How can I tell?” (shyly)
Jungkook: “Oh, there are ways,” (he replies, lightly squeezing her thigh) “Like seeing your reactions.”
He kisses her jawline, trailing down her neck. As he lifts her dress, he suddenly pulls back.
Jungkook: “So-rry, I— Did I go too far?”
YN: (She grabs his hand, stopping him) “You can go far...”
Jungkook: (His grin widens, heart racing) “Dangerous words. You’re giving me freedom here.” (He leans closer, pressing against her) “Are you sure? I don’t want to rush you.”
YN: “I think I’m okay with it...” (she breathes)
Jungkook: (smile grows) “Okay then, but remember, you’re in charge. Just say the word, and I’ll stop.”

It had been a few days since the wedding, and YN was peacefully sleeping on the couch while the maids worked in the background. Ms. Jeon entered the living room, returning from her office, and noticed YN asleep. She smiled softly and tucked a strand of hair behind YN’s ear, careful not to wake her.
Ms. Jeon (chuckling softly): "Look at you... sleeping out in the open."
She lit the fireplace and sat nearby, enjoying the peaceful moment. A moment later, Jungkook and his father, Mr. Jeon, walked in, discussing work. Their conversation shifted to YN.
Mr. Jeon: "That girl loves her naps."
Jungkook (rolling his eyes): "She’ll wake up eventually. Let her rest."
Mr. Jeon: "You’re too soft on her."
Jungkook: "I’m just being a decent husband."
Mr. Jeon: "A decent husband doesn’t let his wife sleep on the couch all day."
Jungkook (heading towards YN): "Did she have lunch?"
The maid hesitated, answering that YN had only eaten fruit, custard, and juice.
Jungkook: "Just fruit? No real food?"
Mr. Jeon: "That’s not enough."
Jungkook (murmuring): "She’s so difficult to feed."
He sat beside YN, gently pulling her head onto his chest.
Jungkook: "Misthi... wake up."
YN stirred and muttered, half asleep.
YN: "Why...?"
Jungkook: "You’ve been asleep for ages."
YN (eyes widening as she saw her in-laws): "Oh God."
Mr. Jeon: "You were sound asleep, my dear."
YN (standing up quickly): "I... why did I...?"
Mr. Jeon (grinning): "You fell asleep on the couch."
YN (confused): "I don’t know how I... fall asleep..."
Mr. Jeon: "You were just tired."
Jungkook: "I’m not lying. And even if I was, what would you do about it?"
YN (pouting): "I’ll call you a liar. Not Rana..."
Jungkook (snorting): "Alright, alright. You just have a small napping habit."

At dinner, Mr. Jeon sits at the front, while Ms. Jeon sits beside him, with Jungkook and YN next to each other. YN's face shows no excitement for the food, and Jungkook notices.
Jungkook: frowning "Not feeling hungry?"
YN: "Uh... I'm not feeling hungry."
Mr. Jeon: "YN, you're not usually like this. What's going on?"
YN: "I'm just not hungry."
Ms. Jeon: concerned "Sweetheart, you should eat something."
Jungkook: "What do you feel like eating?"
YN: murmuring "Potato noodles..."
Jungkook: "Just noodles? Nothing else?"
YN: shakes head
Jungkook: "You sure? You should eat more."
YN: "I eat less... you know that."
Jungkook: "I know, but today you're eating even less than usual."
He signals to the maid to prepare the noodles. None of them start eating until YN does.
YN: "Please don't be angry, I’ll eat whatever."
Ms. Jeon: chuckles "We’re waiting, my dear."
Jungkook: smiles "Don’t worry, we’ll all start together. You go first."
Mr. Jeon: "Exactly. No pressure."
YN: "Why? I mean... why are you waiting for me?"
Jungkook: "We're waiting for you to start. No need to be nervous."
As the maid brings the potato noodles, YN feels the warmth of the family atmosphere. YN is unused to such a familial scene. Jungkook smiles as YN takes a bite of the noodles.
Jungkook: "See? It’s good, right?"
YN: "Yeah... thank you. Please eat now..."
Jungkook starts eating, signaling to Mr. Jeon and Ms. Jeon to do the same.
Jungkook: "No problem, sweetheart. We can start now."
They all begin eating, the atmosphere lighter. Jungkook steals glances at YN, relieved to see her enjoying the noodles.

NEXT DAY
Ms. Jeon asked YN about the elegant dress, which was very different from her usual style.
Ms. Jeon: "How is it?"
YN: "Yeah... it will look great on you, Mom." (smiles)
Jungkook, watching from across the room, noticed YN’s hesitation and concern.
Ms. Jeon: "What do you mean it'll look great on me? Go ahead, try it on. I think it will look wonderful."
Jungkook frowned, sensing YN wasn’t comfortable.
YN: "But... I don’t think it will look good on me..."
Jungkook’s concern grew. He clenched his jaw, moving closer.
Ms. Jeon: "Sweetheart, what do you mean? It will look beautiful on you."
YN: (biting her lip) "I’ll try..." (heads to the changing room)
MOMENT LATER SHE CAME OUT
As YN stepped out of the changing room in an elegant gown, Jungkook's eyes widened, taking in her beauty. His jaw clenched, emotions flooding him—concern, protectiveness, and admiration.
YN: "How is it?"
Jungkook: (eyes scanning her) "It looks... really good. You look beautiful."
Ms. Jeon: (smiling) "I knew it would look great on you, sweetheart. You look stunning."
Noticing her slight insecurity, Jungkook stepped closer, his protective instincts kicking in.
Jungkook: "Why the hesitation? You look perfect."
YN: "I never wear gowns like this."
Jungkook: (smiling) "Well, you do now, and you're looking beautiful. Don’t overthink it."
He took her hand gently, his touch warm and reassuring.
Jungkook: "Just relax, Misthi. You look amazing, I mean it."
YN: (softly) "I trust you... even if not myself enough."
Jungkook: (heart swelling) "You should trust me. You look perfect, and I don’t want you doubting that." (smiles)
YN: "It’s hard, but I’ll try..."
Jungkook: "I’ll keep telling you how beautiful you are until you believe it. And even when it's hard, I’ll remind you every time." (kisses her knuckles)

It’s taking her months to adjust to her new lifestyle, but she's making progress, stepping out of her comfort zone and learning new things. Despite the changes, her innocence and carefree attitude remain, grounding her in a way that he finds both admirable and endearing. He’s proud of her growth but feels a strong desire to protect her from the harsh realities of the world. He’s committed to shielding her from any harm and preserving her purity as long as he can.
YN brought him coffee and asked,
YN: "You’re going somewhere, pati ji?"
Jungkook: "Yeah, heading to the set for the MV shoot. Last-minute changes."
YN: "Ooki..."
Jungkook took a sip of his coffee and smiled at her.
He finished his coffee and reached out his hand.
Jungkook: "So, you in?"
YN: "If it's okay with you."
Jungkook: "Of course. I wanted you to come. Let’s go!"
🍮
YN sat on the couch, watching Jungkook shoot with female actresses. He was laughing and joking with them, clearly enjoying their playful interaction. YN couldn’t help but feel uneasy as they clung to him.
After a break, Jungkook walked over to her, smirking.
Jungkook: "Looks like someone didn't like the chemistry I had with those actresses."
YN: (lick lips try not to act) "Mene dekha hi nahi apko."
Jungkook: (chuckling) "Here we go again. You only speak in Hindi when you're upset... or jealous."
YN: "Apko maze lene ki jarurat nahi hai."
Jungkook: "Oh, I know it's fun watching you jealous."
He sat beside her, grinning.
YN: I'm not jealous.
Jungkook: (laugh, playfully) Oh, really? Then what was that pouting and fidgeting? Face it, misthidoi,
YN: "Yeayea, I was jealous. So... what now?"
Jungkook: What will I do about it? (He pretends to think for a moment) Maybe I should make a point to get all the actresses' attention again and watch your face turn red."
YN: "Go ahead."
He stood up, smiling.
Jungkook: "Alright, I’ll go do another take, but I’ll be back to tease you more, okay?"
YN: (you hits him pillow, Jungkook yelps in surprise as she hits him with the pillow, his eyes widening.) "Don’t even think about it!"
Jungkook: "Hey! Not fair!"
YN: "Don’t tell me what’s fair... Ap mere ho ai baat samajh?!
Jungkook: (laughs) "Okay, okay, I get it. I won’t flirt with them anymore."
YN: "For ever."
Jungkook: "I promise. But only if you stop hitting me with pillows!"
