NARRATOR

After three hours of sharing, suggestions, heavy talking and therapy, finally it has come to an end.

“I hope today’s session helped you.” Ms. Kim, the chubby lady, held your hand and squeezed it lightly. You smiled back in response. “It… did bring a lot of realizations.”

“Should I expect you at the other sessions?” She beamed with her enthusiastic aura.

You nodded. “Definitely, Ms. Kim.”

You talked with her for a while, until she smiled knowingly and poked your elbow playfully. “I think your boyfriend is here to pick you up.” She winked and looked at the door.

You were flabbergasted. “B…boyfriend?” You looked at the door, and there was Baekhyun leaning, waving like a child to you.

“Had fun?” Baekhyun ruffled your hair as both of you got out the building.

You smiled and nodded. “It’s not that bad after all.” He grinned, contented.

“So, where shall we eat?” He beamed, jumping in front of you. You stepped back abruptly, avoiding hitting his body. “Uhm.” You blinked.

Baekhyun chuckled and leveled his face to yours, just inches away. You just want to turn away, just to hide you’re blushing cheks. *I hope he doesn’t… hear my wild heartbeat. What is wrong with me?*

“I’m guessing you’re famished.” He winked before standing straight up and pulling you to who knows where. You just walked with him leading, confused with yourself.

After eating, Baekhyun and you decided to stroll around. He brought you to Gangnam, where the luxurious malls are. You still can’t help but drool with the designer brands in front of you. He held on you hand tight, smirking.

*I hope my plan works.* He smiled inwardly.

“You’re luring me to my obsession.” You muttered, eyes sparkling towards the dresses and shoes. Baekhyun shook his head. “They say, you should face you’re weaknesses.”

He stood in front you, blocking the view.

He pulled out a gold credit card from his pocket. “Today, this is yours.” He took your hand and placed the credit card on your trembling palm. It felt like heaven on your hands.

You looked back at him, confused. “You’re letting me shop?” Your pitch raised with excitement.

“I’m not. You decide on your own. If you’re…” He leaned in your ear slowly. “Going to have self-control.” He slurred. The hair at the back of your neck stood up. Electricity ran up your spine. His warm breath brushed past your cheeks.

But Baekhyun seems unaffected at all. He looked back at you with an innocent smile. “Let’s go!” He beamed, entering the mall with your fingers intertwined with his.

Small beads of sweat rolled down your forehead.

*I just attended a therapy session. And Baekhyun Oppa brought me to this mall.. What if I shop like a madwoman? Aigo. What if I can’t control myself?*

As if Baekhyun read your mind, he smiled encouragingly and tightened his hold on your hand.

The first floor was filled with all your favorite brands. People entered and exited the shops, carrying big paper bags with them. Your eyes sparkled at the thought of clothes.

You passed by in front of Chanel, one of your all-time loves. You walked right past through it, avoiding temptation. But unfortunately, Baekhyun pulled you inside the store, smirking.

*My gosh, I can just buy everything right now. Kris ge will kill me.* You fiddled with your bag, not wanting to look at the clothes.

Baekhyun smiled and got a random dress from a rack. He walked towards your direction and grinned. “I think this really fits you.” He winked. Your heart jumped with that.

But then, your eyes fell on the gorgeous dress on his hands.

“Certainly. It’s perfect.” You muttered. The credit card felt like heaven on your hands.

*I should buy it. Now.* You looked at the pretty dress.

Baekhyun waved it teasingly. He was examining your expression. If you could just drool, you would.

Yor hand was trembling now, and you just wanted to swipe the stupid card and go home with everything. Just when you were on the verge of doing it, Baekhyun stood behind you and squeezed your shoulder. “Your choice.” He whispered. The price tag was showing in front of you, revealing how costly the dress was.

*B..but, I bought more expensive dresses in China.* You tried to reason with yourself. Baekhyun watched your every move. Every sweat, every lip movement, every twitching.

*I should just shop now.* You thought.

But a little voice deep in your mind kept reminding. *You can't come home to China if you spoil yourself. You have to learn and mature. Come one, Minhee! Gather the courage and walk out, now! You're father is coming. Might as well prove yourself to him.*

Baekhyun looked at you when you suddenly turned around, gripping the card tightly. With a determined expression, you stomped away from the shop, leaving Baekhyun smiling to himself.

*That’s it, Minhee. Just a little more…* He victoriously followed behind.

The afternoon was like that. Baekhyun dragging you inside designer shops, taunting you. He had this sly smile all the time, creeping the brains out of you. He also stared at you while you hesitated on buying, or even when you just looked at the golden credit card in your hand. At last, he dragged you to the mall's open area. Your mind was pretty blown already, from all those deciding and refusing. If you just have the stupidity, you would run away from Baekhyun and buy everything.

But he believed he was pretty successful with his plan. For the first time, you walked out of a shop without buying anything, You learned something about self-control. Baekhyun felt contented with what he saw in you today. Slowly, you were learning.

“So… did you have fun?” Baekhyun placed his hands in his pocket and grinned.

You scowled and hit his arm. “You.” You pointed your index finger at him. He raised a brow in amusement.

“You evil man.” You hissed. Baekhyun chuckled and pinched your cheeks.

“I’m happy to be your evil man.” He winked. Butterflies floated in your stomach in an instant. *What is this feeling? Ugh.*

“You did a pretty good job today.. I really want to help you, Wu An Ran.” He smiled warmly and took your hand, placing it on his chest. You flinched a bit. Unknown to you, he was also exploding fireworks inside.

Your hand felt the rhythm of his heartbeat. A smile tugged on your lips.

“See?” He urged. You looked back at him.

“I’m that sincere.” He smiled and let go of your hand, gently placing it on your lap. You can’t help but giggle at that.

Both of you walked out the mall happily, admiring the busy people walking past you. The atmosphere, the usual aura of Gangnam.

Your eyes spotted something and you abruptly stopped walking. Baekhyun also stopped, looking at you questioningly.

“I can’t go home without taking advantage of this golden card.” You smirked, showing Baekhyun the credit card. His eyes twitched. *Don't tell me she's...* He looked at you, trying to remind you of self-control.

You walked closer to him. “Stay here, Oppa.” You whispered, running away, disappearing in the crowd. Baekhyun was troubled.

“That girl! I actually thought she’s able to control herself already.” He muttered, blowing air in his teeth. He just stood there, ranting to himself, disappointed.

After a few minutes, you returned, running back with a brown paper bag. Baekhyun raised an eyebrow at you. You grinned at him and poked his nose playfully.

Slowly, you took out a strawberry frappe and handed it to him. “Here, For you.” You smiled.

His eyes widened. He reluctantly took the drink from your hands. “Thanks for today, Oppa. You're the best. I had fun.”

His heart hammered wildly inside. If you were just closer, you could’ve heard its loud beating. He smiled and looked at your brown eyes. “I had fun too.”

You bit your lip and took his hand. He was taken aback but eventually he smiled at you.

"Minhee." Baekhyun started. 

"Hmm?" You glanced at him for a while and looked back at the busy street.

"Remember what I told you last time? About you... changing?" 

You stopped walking and looked at him. "I... What exactly?"

He smiled and looked at you with his famous soft gaze.

"I'll help you."

As the sun was saying its goodbye, both of you skipped on the busy streets of Gangnam, smiling. Baekhyun happily sipped his drink. You were looking at the surroundings, happy for the successful day you shared with the guy you were holding hands with.
