Chapter 1

***

Soo-Eun's

Everything was perfectly normal for me, being the daughter of a CEO.

But that changed when my Dad talked to me one day which is quite usual for the both of us, we're pretty close but at times like being serious, that rarely happen.

Maybe if I did something wrong or he needs a favor.

"Soo-Eun we need to talk." Those magic words made me nervous.

And those words are the signs that this is going to be a serious conversation.

"What is it Dad?" I asked.

"Our company... It's at the edge." He told me with a sad tone.

"What can I do to help?" I asked in a concern tone. I would do anything for Dad's company to the point that I stand as it's CEO sometimes especially when he needs to coo Mom.

"A company proposed..." He said in hesitation, like he didn't want to watch what'll my expression be.

"Uhh..."

"Proposed?"

"That you marry his son for him to have alliance with our company." He finally said, I feel like I have gone deaf with what I heard.

"What?" Is what I just said.

"Please help me Soo-Eun." He plead.

"But Dad I can do everything for you but not that, I want my marriage to be with the man that I love." I explained.

"I know that but, please help me." He begged, It felt like he even want to beg on his knees just to make me say yes, and I can't help but feel pity.

"I'll think about it."

Yoongi's

"I'll think about it." I told my Father.

I'm currently at the Practice room when he called and told me that he needs my help for his company.

He only approaches me when he needs me, I doubt that he even appreciate me being an idol.

"Hyung, Your Dad?" Jimin asked.

"Yeah, he called and want to talk about his company." I answered him.

"Yoongi-hyung, Jimin, get in your positions." Jungkook shouted with a smirk.

"Yah! Come here! I thought I told you to call me Hyung didn't I?!" Jimin shouted as he ran towards Jungkook who only ran away from him.

"You're so small that I forgot that you're older than me." Jungkook laughed at his own remark.

The others laughed as well.

But as for me, I can't help thinking what my Dad wants to talk about.

-

Our practice was done and I went straight to the restaurant my Dad told me to go.

But before that, I bid my members goodbye and told them that they should go home without me.

As I arrived, he immediately saw me and waved his hand for me to see, he's kinda small like me making me think to myself that I probably got my height from him.

"How are you Yoongi?" He asked as I arrived the table.

"Just cut to the chase." I just told him with a cold tone.

I never liked talking to him and feels weird that he's asking my condition when he didn't even done that for the rest of my life.

He sighed and said, "You're in an arrange marriage."

"Huh?"

"There is a company that I need to help and as a partnership, we want to have a bond between our families." He explained.

"Then don't help them, your even dragging your own son to your businesses." I'm already standing up, ready to leave when he held my wrist.

"Stop being so disrespectful Yoongi! Your Mother didn't raised you to be like that!" He shouted at me and that only made me more furious.

I'm sure glad this restaurant don't have much customers.

"At least she raised me unlike you." I spit back.

"You want me to help you when you haven't done anything for me yet for the last 20 years." I pulled my hand away from him, quite harshly but I didn't care.

"I'm sorry for what I have done, I know what I've done wrong, I know that I spend more time with my Company than with my own family." He told me with a sad voice.

"But when I read all the news about you and your group, I was very proud of you." I looked at him and that was the biggest mistake I made.

He's so sincere that even though I want to be mad at him, I can't.

"Fine, I'll think about it." I told him and sat down again.

Soo-Eun's

"Soo-Eun?" Dad called behind my bedroom door.

"Yes?" I asked not even glancing at door but my laptop.

"Do you still have classes?" He asked as soon as he opened the door.

"No Dad, our class just ended last week, it's finally our vacation." I said with a smile and finally looked at him.

"What are you doing by the way?" He asked smiling at me and was about to lean towards my laptop.

"N-Nothing." I told him while stuttering and closed my laptop before he can even take a glance at it.

"Ey, being obsessed with boys again?" He teased while looking at me with a playful smile.

"Again? I don't even!" I shouted and smacked him with a pillow.

"Before I even forgot, there will be a dinner later with the man you'll be marrying." He said with a serious face as he walk to my door.

"Oh... Okay." Is what I just said and after that he bid me goodbye and close my door.

I sighed and opened my laptop once again, Dad wasn't wrong a while ago, I was obsessing with boys but not just any boys, its Bangtan Boys.

Its not that I'm ashamed of being an A.R.M.Y. but I don't want anyone to see me fangirling and being crazy while watching them perform.

I'm too insecure to show anyone my fangirling state since many people see me as a composed and calm person.

A friend of mine even said that she can't even picture me on concerts shouting.

They never saw me shout, cry or laugh out loud even once.

And now that Bighit finally released the new MV, Blood, Sweat and Tears, I can't help myself.

I just want to beat them up one by one for ruining me.

They always makes me crazy.

And Min Yoongi–my ultimate bias–wants to kill me with his new black hair.

I held my pillow out of frustration and shout on it.

Even though I want to marry this man.

I can't.

Because of this stupid arranged marriage.

-

I wore a black knee-high dress and a pair of black wedge, because wedge is the only heels that I can wear.

I'm too scared to try any other kind of heels.

"Are you ready Soo-Eun?" Dad asked making me out of trance.

"If I told you I'm not, will we back out?" I asked him playfully as he intertwined our arms together.

"Of course." And that made me hope.

A smile crept on my face.

"Not." And the smile turned into a pout as we continued to walk up the stairs to the restaurant we are meeting at.

Dad kept on talking to the informant in front of the entrance.

I was mesmerized by the restaurant's beauty that I didn't heard their conversation.

"There they are Sir." The informant said and we looked at the direction he was leading us at.

There are two seems like short men, one have a dark hair but the other seems to have a darker hair.

We approached them and that made me recognize their features more.

And what the–

"You never told me that we will be meeting them today." Yoongi–Min. Fucking. Yoongi.–said.

I was still in trance and currently malfunctioning as they greeted each other.

"This is my daughter." Dad finally snap me out of it and elbowed me softly, a sign for me to introduce myself.

"H-Hello my name is Nam Soo-Eun, nice to meet you." I introduced myself.

I was embarrassed that I just stuttered and more embarrassed that I was blushing.

"You have such a beautiful daughter." Yoongi's father complimented.

I bowed and muttered a 'thank you' at him.

"And very courteous as well." He chuckled.

Dad chuckled as well along with the, "Of course she got it from her father."

They chuckled once again.

"This is my son." He looked at Yoongi and Yoongi looked at me before bowing at us.

"Nice to meet you my name is Yoongi." He introduced quietly.

But I noticed that he can't help but look at his father with furrowed eyebrows.

Is he mad?

"Come on sit down." Yoongi's father said and Yoongi sat beside him for me and my father to sit beside each other.

Dad sat first and I followed after, that is why I'm currently and awkwardly in front of Min Yoongi.

I can't help but heat up just with the thought of Min Yoongi in front of me.

And now that it's not only a thought, I might die from my body heat.

"Are you okay Soo-Eun?" Dad whispered beside me.

"Y-Yes, I maybe catching a cold or something." I lied.

"By the way, where's your wife?" Yoongi's Father asked.

"She's quite busy at the Hospital." Dad answered, Mom is a dermatologist that is why she have all the opportunity to check on my skin's condition.

"What about you?" Dad asked back.

"Back in Daegu." He answered plainly.

"So about the proposal?" Yoongi's father finally get down to business.

"We should make the kids have their time to decide." Dad said.

I tried to ignore them by looking at some foods I could order.

I noticed the chocolate mousse so I ordered one.

When the waitress arrived, I heard Yoongi chuckled.

Oh my fuck, his chuckles are music to my ears.

Compose yourself Nam Soo-Eun.

"Why?" I asked with a pout as I put a spoonful in my mouth.

He smirked at me,"I can't help but be amazed at how you're handling the situation."

Fuck that smirk–just Fuck me.

Dad and his father are currently having their own world talking about business and stuff that they don't even notice us talking with each other.

"Well, nothing will happen if I stress out myself because of this." I shrugged.

On the outside, I may look calm with red cheeks but on the inside, I'm panicking and asking myself what time will I wake up from this beautiful dream.

"You do have a point." He agreed with me while looking at me eat.

Shit stop looking at me, I'm melting.

"Yoongi, Soo-Eun, we have decided to have both of you live in one roof." Yoongi's father said while looking at Dad.

I almost choked on my chocolate mousse.

I looked at Dad, quietly asking him if he also approved of this.

"What?!" Yoongi shouted.

"It's to help the both of you decide, and don't worry I won't let the both of you sleep on one bed... yet." Dad said making me flustered but realized now isn't the time for that.

"We haven't even decided yet, so why make that option." I told them trying to defend myself.

I don't dislike the idea of living with Min Yoongi but... I have so many things to hide from him.

(Albums, posters and other merchs)

And I think I'll die if he saw my stuffs.

I need to prepare myself mentally.

"Mr. Min can't you help our company without an arrange marriage?" I asked Yoongi's father and he was shocked with my question.

I also don't dislike the idea of marrying Min Yoongi but what if I realize I don't love him as a person but as an idol.

Or what if he never loves me back.

If this marriage is forced, it may soon lead to failure.

I also respect Yoongi's decision too.

"You see, its not just that I can't do that, but I'm sure we both want an heir to our company." Mr. Min explained.

"W-What?" I asked embarrassed and shocked and looked at him then at Dad who's looking away from my gaze.

"You do know its too early for that." Yoongi said calmly but the anger behind his tone is very visible.

Mr. Min looked at Dad, and Dad only nodded.

"Actually, its not too early, I'm about to be gone anyway." Mr. Min, looked at his hands.

"What do you mean by that?" Yoongi seems to be confused.

He's not alone though, I am as well.

"I'm sick, and the doctor said I might not make it for a few years." I was shocked but maybe not as shocked as Yoongi.

Yoongi stood up, his anger finally coming up to him, "You haven't done anything as my father and now you're already leaving?! You're even putting all your problems on me! What kind of a father are you?!"

He huff and catch his breath before walking out.

There's a silence in our table, maybe even in the entire restaurant

"Did you knew?" I asked Dad.

"Yes, Mr. Min here is not only a soon to be business partner but also my best friend that I haven't any contact with, and when I heard the news about him, I wanted to help him and he wanted to help me too, so he proposed this option." Dad explained.

I closed my eyes to calm down.

"I'll... I'll go after him, I'll be back with him if ever I succeed on easing his anger." I told them and stood up from my sit to follow where Yoongi went.
