Fiancé

***Jungkook's POV***

I had to see her again so I went back to the hospital the next day. When I reached outside of her room, I stopped to calm down my rapidly increasing heart. Now that I think about it, I don't even know her name. I looked at the patient's name outside the room.

Lee Seoyeon

For some odd reason, I felt like I heard that name before. Lee Seoyeon. Seoyeon.

'-I would like it if you were the one to make my Seoyeon happy. Please be sincere and I'll give you my blessing.'

And then it all clicked in my head. I dreamt of someone sitting next to me last night. He asked me to make Seoyeon happy. What is this weird feeling I keep on getting? Who could it have been? I couldn't remember it clearly though so I opened the door and walked into her room. She was awake and sitting up. Her pair of brown eyes made contact with mine.

Wow, She is beautiful.

"Mr. Jeon," she said while quickly sitting up as straight as she can.

"It's okay. Sit comfortably."

She must really be an employee if she knows who I am. Why don't I remember seeing her at all in the company?

She relaxed a bit but not too much. Her brown moist eyes made it seem like she had been crying. She quickly lowered her head. Her long black hair that was tucked behind her ears fell to cover her eyes.

"My dad asked me to drop by yesterday evening but I seemed to have come at a bad time yesterday. I wanted to see if you were feeling better today."

"Please tell CEO Jeon that I'm fine. I'll be back to work as soon as I can."

I wanted to hold her in my arms. I came determined to see her smile, but she looked so frail. I don't know what happened to cause her to be so sad, but I am going to find out. I want to make her smile again. I want to hear her laugh.

The door opened and another girl walked in holding a lunchbox. It was Kim Hani. I recognize her because I run into her every morning while going to work.

"Seoyeonie, have you eaten?"

Hani halts as soon as she sees me.

"Oh, Mr. Jeon. I'll come back later," she said as she turned towards the door.

"It's okay. You don't need to leave. I was about to leave anyway. Since you are here, please look after her well."

She nodded and bowed to me.

"Yes, Mr. Jeon."

I turned to bid my farewell to Seoyeon and nodded to Hani before I left the room.

***3rd person's POV***

Hani rushed to Seoyeon's side and asked about Jungkook. Hani and Seoyeon actually met at work. They became close friends and that was how Seoyeon and Taehyung met. Hani teased Seoyeon that she wished to have a handsome heir come visit her if she ever had to stay in the hospital, but Seoyeon was not in the mood for jokes. She just quietly lay down and covered herself with her blanket. Hani apologized to Seoyeon. She just wanted to cheer Seoyeon up since she had never smiled or laughed ever since she heard about Taehyung's death.

"I'm sorry Seoyeonie. I didn't mean to upset you. Your mom wanted me to drop off some food for you before I went to work. Please at least eat. Your mom will be here soon."

Seoyeon sat back up and opened her arms wide. She needed the comfort of her best friend so Hani and gave her a long and much-needed hug. Soon they both cried in each other's arms as they comforted one another.

*A few hours later*

Seoyeon was going through paperwork with her mother to be discharged. She couldn't wait to get out of the stuffy hospital room. She also had been wanting to visit Taehyung's grave. Seoyeon already knew what she wanted to do once she confirmed there was no more Kim Taehyung.

***Taehyung's POV***

I didn't leave Seoyeon's side for a moment when she woke back up. But today, Jungkook had come back to visit her. Since I saw Hani come to stay with Seoyeon, I decided to follow Jungkook as he left Seoyeon's room. I watched as Jungkook stops outside her room. He was looking at her name that was on the outside of the door. He had a puzzled look on his face as if he was trying hard to remember something. He finally walked towards the elevator. Jungkook pressed the down button and while he waited for the elevator, he pulled out his phone.

"Hello, Secretary Lee can you do me a favor? Look for the resume of an employee for me. Her name is Lee Seoyeon. Thank you."

***Jungkook's POV***

"Did you get me the resume I asked for Mr. Lee?"

"Yes, may I ask why you needed to see Miss Lee's resume?"

"Miss? So she's not married?" I asked with a slight hopefulness in my voice. I skimmed through her resume. She was a year younger than me.

"Not yet sir, but I believe she will be soon though. I hear Miss Lee is engaged and soon to be wed."

"Oh," I answered with disappointment in my tone. The smile that crept on the corner of my lips had faded.

Of course, she must be engaged or have a boyfriend at least. Someone like her is bound to have someone in her life. What was I thinking? I was just momentarily blinded by her beauty. She had someone else in her life already.

But wait...

Why was she alone this morning then? Where was her fiancé?

I needed answers. I wanted answers. If she was engaged, then there's no way her fiancé would leave her alone in the hospital. I know I wouldn't ever leave her alone if she was mine.

"Kim Hani," I told Mr. Lee, "I would like to see her. Please call her for me."
