break the ice

Jimin's POV:

"My name is Christian! "

I don't wanna tell him my real name, At least not yet. I was watching him and waiting for his reply. He just nodded his head.

Just nodding his head? I want to know his name too. Should I be asking him? He looks at his lap again? What the hell is so attractive about his lap. I look down and gulp.

Ok... That's thick thighs, I mean very thick. I'm not a pervert ok...

"So, what's your name? " I can't help it. I need to know his name. I don't have all day waiting for his reply. I'm not a patient person for your kind information. Then and there the things have to happen!

He looks up and at the table taking tissue out from the tissue socket. He looks at me and shakes his hand as if holding a pen in air and writing. I understood and gave my palladium plated pocket pen. He takes and looks at the pen for a movement and scribbles on the tissue. He gave the tissue to me. I took it and didn't look at the tissue rather at him.

I asked him his name, didn't ask him to write down his property on me. He looks up from staring at the tissue on my palm towards me and gestured me to look at it. I raised my eyebrows and looks at it.

Jeon Jungkook

Ok? That's a pretty good name. Can't he just say it to me? As if he doesn't want people to know his name! It's a very special name and he doesn't want people to steal his name and name their children.

"You could have just told your name. Right? Or are you hiding something.. " I raised my voice a bit. Curse me for it because he shudders and looks down again. He takes another tissue, I was looking closely at his actions. He took his time though.

I didn't do it on purpose... I can't speak... I have been like this for a long time... My vocal is gone...

That turned me mute. I look at him, abusing his pink tasty lips. That's supposed to be my job...

"I'm sorry! " He shot his eyes at me I can see the glossy brown eyes and how beautifully those bangs hiding his forehead. He shakes his head and tilts his head to left and gave me a little smile. Baam, that... That cute smile just wanted to pass through my heart! But, I shield it.

I ain't allowing it to happen! I'm not forgetting my promise.

Just then Namjoon enters and looks at me then at Jun.. I look at tissue, Jungkook. Does he smirk? Now, what's with that! He taps his watch and I understood it's time for me to take my leave. I stood up and that puppy eyes followed my move.

"I have to go now! " He looks at me there was a pinch of disappointment and sadness. But, it doesn't affect me.

I push my chair back and walked out of the table. Somebody held my hand. Ok... Who has the courage to touch me? I look back and saw him. He also stood up and came close to me his face is below my chin. He held his hand up and I saw my pen. He gave it to me and steps back as he bowed. I didn't stand a minute there and walk out. Who wants to deal with a mute!

I can out and saw Namjoon leaning against the car having the phone on his palm and typing on it. I walked to him.

"Let's go! " I gave a last look at the café and got inside the car. This place is not good for me. It's suffocating me. It's making my heart beat fast, not good for human health. I saw the café moving as the car passed away from it.

Jungkook's POV:

I bowed to him as I closed my eyes for a brief moment and felt wind pass through my left side. I opened my eyes and didn't see him. I saw him walking away. I don't know why, it squeezed my heart. I shut my eyes preventing it to leave those droplets. He was the first person after taehyung to help and talked with me. I never talked with someone, who is just a stranger so comfortably. He gave me a feeling of being safe- a very warm and beautiful feeling, which is different than I got from taehyung. But, he just walked away from here and didn't even look back. Maybe he just wanted to help me that's all. Silly to think that maybe he is okay with me. Obviously, who wants to stay and talk with a mute! Talk... Yeah... Talk, which is quite impossible.

I gave a last look at the door and walked back to my place having somewhere within me to meet him again.

Third POV:

"Jungkook! What made you think that you could rest and sit with the customer! " The same waiter shouted at him. He is not happy to see Jungkook near that person, which is Christian! He saw the whole event unfold in front of him and he didn't help him not because he scared he didn't like Jungkook.

Often, the customer will visit the café just to see his pretty face. They would ask about Jungkook and sometimes they would leave a letter for him. But, Jungkook never got any of those. The waiter used to take those and assuring customers to make the letter reach its destination. He will take those and make shred throwing it in a dustbin. Later, when the same customer comes and asks for the outcome. He will give a sad smile and say 'Jungkook tore it'.
