Tiffany goes to rooftop after she accidentally saw Jesse and Taeyeon hugging each other in Jesse office. She suddenly felt weird after seeing them together. She never felt something like this before. She know Jesse love her more than just friend but she can’t accept Jesse as her boyfriend. It has been 3 months since she date her boyfriend and Jesse still can’t accept their relationship. She don’t understand why Jesse against their relationship. Jesse also used to tell her that her boyfriend is not a good person but she doesn’t care because she never sees something wrong with her boyfriend.

When Tiffany in her deep thinking, her phone ringing and it was call from Sooyoung

“Hello” – Tifany

“Hi Fany, how are you?” – Sooyoung

“I’m fine Sooyoungie, how about you?” – Tiffany

“As usual, hehe” – Sooyoung

“You call me at time like this so I guess you have something urgent to say” – Tiffany

“Yeah, I really have something to tell you” – Sooyoung

“Ok, what is it?” – Tiffany

“This weekend I held a party at my house to celebrate my new car so I want you to come. I tell you personally because if I ask Jesse to pass the message, you won’t come. You know you haven’t hangout with us these day” – Sooyoung

“Ok, I’ll come” – Tiffany

“Alright, see you this weekend” - Sooyoung

“Ok, bye” – Tiffany

After talking to Sooyoung, Tiffany back to her office but her feeling still feel like hurt and the scene still played in her mind

As she enter the office, she saw Taeyeon and Jesse talked happily then they noticed her presence

“Hey Fany, where are you from?” Taeyeon asked as she and Jesse approached Tiffany

“I just return from meeting with Mr. Lee” Tiffany said but the truth it’s about an hour since her end with the meeting

“I see, it such a long meeting” Taeyeon nodded her head

“Steph, did Sooyoung invite you to the party this weekend?” Jesse asked

“Yes, she called me just now and I’ll come”

“Great, it’s been a while since we go out together” Taeyeon chirped

Jesse checked his watch “Since this is lunch time, let’s eat together” he said

“Sure” Taeyeon agree

Tiffany scratched her nape “Sorry guys, I can’t join both of you” she giggle awkwardly

Jesse and Taeyeon looked at each other “Ok then. We go now” Jesse said disappointedly

“Ok” Tiffany goes to her office while Taeyeon and Jesse go to the elevator

When they have their lunch, Taeyeon noticed that Jesse just silent and not really eating his food “Are you ok?”

“Yes?”

Taeyeon sighs “I asked, are you ok?”

“I’m ok, why?”

“You looked not interested with your food. Is it because of her?”

Jesse wipe his lips with napkin “I don’t know Taeng, whenever I feel like I’m fine with her treatment I guess I’m wrong. I never got rejection and abandoned since I be her friend and it feel so rare when it happen. I don’t know Taeng. Its hurt” Jesse face contorted

‘It’s hurt me too seeing you like this Jesse’ Taeyeon said in her mind

“Why don’t just forget her and move on? I mean start new life like you used to do before you meet her” Taeyeon suggest

“It’s hard Tae. I can’t forget her”

“Aigoooo” Taeyeon rubbed her temple “I don’t know what to do anymore. Let’s eat”

“Sorry” Jesse pout

“It’s ok. Quit pouting, I don’t like that face of yours” Taeyeon joking then they laughed

……………..

Everyone come to Sooyoung party and of course Tiffany also comes along. Jesse glued with Taeyeon and Tiffany don’t like seeing their closeness

“Both of you, why don’t just date? You too looked like a couple” Hyoyeon said when she noticed that Taeyeon and Jesse treat each other like couple did

“Don’t talk nonsense, we’re just friend” Jesse said

“But you two looked romantic. You even wipe Taeyeon lips when sauce smudges there, right guys?”

“Yes!” their friends cheer except Tiffany

“I’m not his ideal type so don’t ask him to date me” Taeyeon said

“Who care about ideal type if you two can make a good couple” said Sunny

“Let God do his work. If we’re made for each other, we’ll together” Taeyeon said

Then they change topics and enjoy the food that Sooyoung made for them

After back from Soyoung house, Jesse and Taeyeon take a walk at the park since it’s still early to go home

“Tae, are you dating someone?” Jesse sudden question make Taeyeon startled

It take few seconds for Taeyeon to answer “Currently single and available”

“Hm, your life is so good. No need to think about love and chasing someone”

“I not a type who like chasing or forcing someone to love me, I just leave it to God for this part”

“If I can have a life like yours” Jesse close his eyes and exhale deeply

“It’s up to you to design your own life. It’s all about how you want your life to go. For me, I want this kind of life like it is what it is. If it means to be, it’ll happen no matter what it takes. I told you to move on and forget Tiffany but you don’t want to listen to me. Your only problem now is your one-sided love to Tiffany. It makes you stress, you know?”

“I’m sorry Tae” Jesse said sadly and both of them stand facing the lake

“Don’t say sorry to me, say sorry to yourself. You make a burden to your mind”

“I hope I can forget this feeling”

“I hope so” Taeyeon pat Jesse shoulder

“Can you help me with this thing?”

Taeyeon frown as she doesn’t understand “How?”

Jesse compose himself before say anything “I think our friend suggestion is not bad”

“Mean?” Taeyeon totally don’t understand what Jesse said

“Earlier Hyoyeon said that we’re good together and it’s good if we’re dating” Jesse holds Taeyeon hand “I thought about it before and I want to ask permission to court you”

Taeyeon shocked by what Jesse said just now “Are you sure about this? This is not a joke Jesse. You so in love with Tiffany but you ask me to help you to forget her with this way. It will end up hurting me”

Jesse cupped Taeyeon face “No Tae, no. My main point is I want to court you because of how you care about me. You always there whenever I need you, you cry with me, laugh with me, lend your ear whenever I need someone to talk with even it’s late at night. You stay when everyone leave. After I recall back every time I hurt by Tiffany, you’re the person I need the most. Maybe you’re not my ideal type but your personality makes me want you to be someone who stays by my side in ups and downs, through thick and thin of my life. Please, let me pay back your kindness with this way. It sound weird and really rare but from now on please let me take care of you and give you everything you deserve”

Taeyeon taking deep breath after listen to Jesse explanation. She caressed Jesse hand that remains on her cheek “Jesse, I know you’re good person. Ever since I worked together with you, I’m really comfortable when we’re together. You’re caring, kind, warmth and have good sense of humor. Sometime I don’t know why Tiffany rejects someone like you. I never thought that you’ll ask permission to court me or more but I’m happy with your request. It’s hurt me seeing you sad and breakdown because of her till the point I want to hate her because of what she did to you. First I think this feeling is because of sympathy but then what I actually feel is because I like you. I start to have feeling for you, more than a friend but I know I can’t win your heart like Tiffany did”

“Is that why you said my happiness is right in front of me?” Jesse smile

Taeyeon nodded “Yes because I want you to see me as a woman like you see Tiffany but I’m not confident if I can have you”

“But why you help me with Tiffany?” Jesse curious

“Because if I can’t have you for my own at least I can make you happy with her”

Jesse sighs and he really thankful that he meet someone who have pure heart like Taeyeon “From now on, you can have me for your own. No need to help me to get her but help me to forget her” he caressed Taeyeon cheek

“Are you sure you want to forget her?”

“Yes, now I found someone who made for me and I’ll never look back. I can court you, right?” Jesse smile sweetly

“Yes, you can” Taeyeon said

“Thanks” Jesse pulled Taeyeon to his embrace

Taeyeon hugged Jesse back and rest her chin on Jesse shoulder “Can you promise me something?”

“What is it?”

“Don’t ever cry because of her anymore”

“I promise I won’t cry unless you make me. Even this thing so sudden but I hope I will showered you with the love that you deserve” Jesse Taeyeon hair softly

“Thanks Jesse”

“You’re welcome”

They broke their hug and suddenly feel awkward “What?” Jesse asked when he noticed Taeyeon stared at him

“This is real, right?” Taeyeon showed her puppy eyes

“Yup, this is real”

“Thanks God” Taeyeon said “Let’s go back. It’s quite late now”

“Ok, I’ll send you back”

“I drive my own car, remember?”

“Yea, I know but I’ll follow you until you reach home”

“Ok then, let’s go” they walk to the car park

As he said, Jesse follow Taeyeon until she reach her house. Jesse stop in front of Taeyeon house and get out of his car

“Thank for sending me home” Taeyeon beamed

“No problem. I wish I can drive you home everyday” Jesse said coolly

“Let’s take it slow. Don’t rush, we’re not catching something”

“Ok, I know” Jesse said understanding

“You should go now, it’s late. Take a rest, I’ll see you on Monday”

“Ok” Jesse nodded. He moved forward and kiss Taeyeon forehead “Goodnight”

“Goodnight Jesse” Taeyeon touched by Jesse action “Text me when you reach home”

“Alright, I go now” Jesse enter his car

Taeyeon waved and watching Jesse slowly leaving her house. After 20 minutes, she got text from Jesse telling that he arrived safely at home

………..

Jesse starts to care more about Taeyeon and everyday he text Taeyeon early in the morning to greet her,
