He walks closer to their new neighbor's front yard when suddenly he feels a strong force pushed his back. It's not strong enough to cause him to fall down. He turns around and readies himself to shoot a glare at the rude person but his facial expression softens when he sees the taller guy tilts his head a little to the side from the big box he's holding in his slightly muscular arms.

"Sorry, I didn't see you there…" the taller guy says and Jihoon would have been offended by it because did he just imply that I'm small, but the smile plastered on the guy's face calms himself down.

"It's okay…" replied Jihoon and he returns the smile at the guy. Jihoon doesn't know what's gotten into him because suddenly he initiates a conversation with a stranger when he never actually took the first step before.

"Do you want some help with that?" he asks when he can see the other having a hard time trying to hold the big box.

"Oh, thanks!" and Jihoon feels relieved because he can't see the guy's dazzling smile when they are being separated by the box between them.

And if you like midnight driving with the windows down,

And if you like going places we can't even pronounce,

If you like to do whatever you've been dreaming about,

Baby you're perfect. Baby, I'm perfect for you.
