@โงห j. jaeyeong "O-oh n-no I d-don't mind you laughing at all. I-it's nice to see you can laugh about it instead of being mad. Yes I very much think so at least from what I can see so far. It might be the case I'm a bit of a homebody myself only leaving to mainly go to work or for shopping or to take Sunflower out or dropping her off to and from school. Are you a homebody also? That's why you cooped up at home?" Nako said all at once her panic ranting taking a hold once more feeling even more embarrassed her face heating up even more. "O-oh I'll t-take that as a good thing thank you Jaeyeong. I'm 23, and I'm guessing you're older then me?" She question as the end hoping she guess it right, and if she was wrong he won't get mad about it. "Eggs?" She tilted her head slightly before letting out a gasp. "I forgot to add that to my list Sunflower would be so sad if I can't make her dorayaki and cheesecake. Thank you for reminding me." She nodded her head a few times. "I will thank you again for all your help. Shall we head over to grab the eggs now?" The smaller one asked while glancing his way.
@โงห y. nako Jungkook couldn't help back the bit of laughter that escaped him trying his best to at least keep it short. He really wasn't surprise though it wasn't out of the ordinary for people to judge him because of his appearance. "You're fine you don't need to apologize I hope you don't mind me laughing though. It's just rather funny but please don't be embarrassed." he assured her while letting out a small chuckle his gaze wandering over to the shelf. "You think so? I'd like to think I'm a very nice person but of course that's probably pretty biased of me." he confessed as his gaze trailed back to Nako with a smile on his lips. "Oh five years? Could just be either we never go to the place and bumped into each other. Or maybe I spend way too much time cooped up at home." He pondered as he tilted his head to the side as if trying to decide between two. Truth was that Jungkook's work usually took up most of his time as tattooing a person wasn't the quickest thing in the world. However he wasn't complaining he loved his job it was something he was very passionate about he would choose it over any other job any day. Jungkook blinked a couple of times while thinking over the question Nako asked, his lips slightly pursing as he did so. "If I would have to guess maybe around 18? or maybe 20? You definitely don't seem that much older." He spoke while eyeing her in curiosity hoping that he was at least close to what her actual age was. "Oh let's see I had to get some eggs, what about you? Definitely we can do everything together sounds like fun." He let out a small chuckle as he took a glance over at her a part of him rather happy that Nako seemed to be a bit more calm around him. "Just let me know what you need to get once we get to the higher up items, yes?" He smiled over at the shorter female making sure to put a reasonable amount of distance just to make sure she was comfortable.
@โงห j. jungkook "Meep I didn't mean for it to slip out nor for you to hear that." Nako was sure she was as bright as a tomato at this point. "Eh?" She blinked a few times trying to take in what Jungkook just said. "O-oh maybe from what I can see you already seem like a nice person already." The smaller of the two shook her head slightly trying to shake off her embarrassment. She knew better then to judge a person from looks; however it seem like her fear took over once a male just appeared. "I been in this town for a few years now actually. It's nice and cozy just rarely do I venture out beside to a few places." Nako was taken aback at his question taking a moment to glanced his way. "How old do you think I am?" She asked back in curiosity knowing most think she's younger then she is. Nako sighed softly remembering all the times when she was with her baby sister people think she was a teenage mother. "Oh, how rude of me may I know what's next on your shopping list?" She asked while glancing over at his basket. "Let's get everything done together."
@โงห y. nako Jungkook couldn't deny he was a bit surprised with the comment however he found himself letting out a small chuckle in amusement while his head shook he didn't take any offense to the comment. With the tattoos and piercings it was normal to get looked at different in a judging way he had gotten used to it over the years. "I'm not as scary as I look indeed I'm actually a pretty nice person. Maybe you'll stick around enough to find that out about me?" He smiled while giving her a quick glance taking in the embarrassment appearance of the shorter female. "You're very welcome I'd just like to help." he confessed while taking a few steps closer however still making sure to keep a safe distance wanting to make sure Nako was completely comfortable. "That's very much what I asked I mean I haven't seen you around so I figure maybe you're new in town? Or maybe we just haven't bumped into each other before? But either way I don't see why not to make some friendly conversation we get to know each other?" He spoke softly as he brought his gaze down to Nako in curiosity only to have a smile quickly come to his lips upon the response he got. "So far I know your name, Nako. What else? Maybe how old you are?" His head tilted to the side slightly as he gazed at her taking an estimated guess to how old she could be before Nako could answer
@โงห j. jungkook It's a bad habit of her to panic rant, but mix that in with what people with call a flirty personality then it's a recipe for complete misunderstandings. "Thank goodness for that. Oh you're welcome you're really not as scary as you look." It was at this moment Nako wished the floor will just swallow her up as her eyes widen quickly looking away for a few seconds while her cheeks painted a light pink due to embarrassment. "In thank case thank you very much for your help." She put her phone away before grabbing her cart. "My apologies did you asked if I would like the idea to get to know each other more,?" The smaller one asked in completely confusion. It wasn't the fact that was was opposed to it. It's just rare anyone ask especially from a guy. "I wouldn't mind that at all." Nako quickly added shocking herself at how fast she's already warming up to Jungkook.
@โงห y. nako Jungkook tilted his head to the side as he listened to Nako explain, his eyes staying focused on her almost in an amused manner as she spoke, a chuckle escaped him a moment as he gave a light nod of his head. "I wouldn't have pegged you for a creep honestly so don't worry, Nako. And thank you for thinking I'm good looking that's very flattering." He cleared his throat feeling his cheeks rather warm he really wasn't used to receiving compliments thus sometimes he didn't know how to react. As Nako looked at him weary he sent her a smile as his free hand came down to settle in the pocket of his jeans already fully aware that he may get a no to his offer, he of course couldn't blame her especially because he was a stranger to her, if she said no it was expected. "Hm? Of course I'm more than happy to help trust me I just want to help." He smiled softly while moving to come a bit closer to her however making sure to still keep a bit of distance between each other as he could notice how Nako sometimes seemed to panic. "Besides we can get to know each other if you'd like?" He looked over at her with a curious gaze a light smile resting on his lips noticing just how much shorter she was compared to him finding the sight rather cute.
@โงห j. jungkook Nako blinked a few times nodding her head along hearing his answers making a mental note. "That's a relief to hear. Oh, oh my sweets my apologizes. I just realized how random it just must be. I'm a chocolatier, and was thinking of making a box of chocolate as a thank you for your help. I promise I'm not a creep or trying to hit on you. It's not to mean you're not good looking because you are, and I'll just shut up now." Nako voice got softer and softer with each word as her left eye show fear upon finally realizing how she must had seem like as her habit of panic ranting show up. "Eh?" She once more froze for a few seconds thinking about his offer. She took a long weary look at him then slowly nodded her head as he seems to just want to help not, and from what she saw he was respecting her space. "Are you sure? I would hate to trouble you even more so when I just got started, but I'll be grateful for your help." She answered as it would be nice for once not having to jump into the cart or climb.
@โงห y. nako Jungkook let out a soft hum in thought at the question being directed at him while tilting his head to the side his free hand coming up to brush his hair back from his forehead while in thought. "Well I love sweets and as for fruits I love them just as much as well I'm all about fruits and chocolates. May I ask why the question though?" he asked while eyeing her in a rather curious manner. He found the subject of the questions to be rather random but of course he was curious to find out what this was leading to. He could only smile while watching Nako for a moment as she spoke, Jungkook figured she was talking more or less to herself. "I know you don't know me that well but do you need some help with your grocery shopping? I could help you reach the stuff up high if you need? It's not like I'm in a rush either." He suggested as he sent her a friendly smile fully aware that he might be rejected as he could notice how Nako seemed a bit unsure of him. He completely understood however it's usually the reaction he'd get with his piercings and tattoos he couldn't blame her for that but he did want to help the female in front of him. Jungkook couldn't help himself when it came to helping people it was almost like a weakness of his.
@โงห j. jungkook "I can't seem to recalled meeting you before today either especially with your more unique look you think one would." Nako took a curious glanced towards Jungkook before sending him a thankful smiled for the distance. "Peas and peanuts? I'll keep that in mind. How about sweets? Do you like chocolate? How about fruits?" Nako kept up the questions still not realizing how it seems like. As much as Nako doesn't like to talk there are always exception like her passion or to her little sister, and this was one of those times. The only thought she had was making sure the thank you gift was something he can eat. If the other said he doesn't like sweets then she was already thinking of what to do as a backup plan. "Hmm?" Nako tilted her using her one good eye to look around seeing nothing else she need not noticing the taller one was holding back his laugher. She took out her phone where she had a list marking off the two items as well as looking to see what's next. "Drinks, meat, and produce then something for nice for Sunflower." She sighed already knowing most of the drinks are up high just making a note to either ask a nearby worker for help or do what she normally do jump into the cart for extra height and/or climb the shelf.
@โงห y. nako He lets out a small chuckle as he brought his hand up to rub the nape of his neck while his head lightly shook. "Oh no not at all I don't think you and I have ever come across each other at least I don't recall it." He spoke while sending her a rather friendly smile as he stayed close to the shelf making sure to keep some distance for Nako's comfort more than anything. He followed her with his gaze as he shifted his weight from one foot to the other rather curious as to why all the questions. "Anything I dislike to eat? Not really I like just about everything minus peas I hate peas and peanuts." He found himself shaking his head at the thought of peanuts his nose crinkling slightly, he really wasn't fond of them whatsoever. Jungkook bit down on his bottom lip trying to hold back a chuckle finding the sight of the short Nako getting on her tip toes to reach an item on the shelf. He honestly found the sight very adorable however he didn't want to appear rude especially since they don't exactly know each other. He was very curious about the stranger he's hopefully getting to know more about in the future if they cross paths again.
@โงห j. jungkook Nako had a confused look as the other spoke. "Oh, my sweets my apologies I thought you know from what you said." She let out a small laughter while her left eye glanced at what else she might need in this aisle spotting the next item she needed. "It's really alright you didn't hold me up at all." Nako nodded her head thankful he wasn't allergic to anything as it would make things a whole lot easier. "Then in that case is there anything you dislike to eat?" She asked while taking a few steps back going on her tip toe in order to grab the item before placing it in her cart. If Nako was anything it was that when she returns the favor especially when it's food that the other could at least enjoy it. She doesn't realize however how her questions, and actions might seem weird to other people.
@โงห y. nako With a friendly smile on his lips he took another step back taking note of the polite smile on the latter's face, he of course didn't want to make her uncomfortable, thus putting distance was probably the best option. "Nako? Nice to meet you as well. You return favors? I actually wasn't aware" He let out a small chuckle as I tilted his head to the side trying to recall if maybe he had come across her before however nothing was coming to him regarding a previous meeting. "You don't need to thank me but you're very welcome. Oh yes I'm sorry for holding you up" He spoke out while moving to the side closer to the shelf to let Nako walk past making sure to at least bow back respectfully, the light yet friendly smile still settled on his lips. His attention however quickly came back to Nako as he heard her speak up once again. His eyes blinking a couple of times as if to registered what was just asked. "If I'm allergic to anything? Um?" He closed his eyes for a moment as if to think only to open them a second later as he shook his head his lips slightly pursed as his eyebrows furrowed a bit. "I don't believe I'm allergic to anything, no." He answered as he looked at her rather confused wondering why the sudden question
@โงห j. jungkook The smaller of the two was beginning to inwardly panic upon hearing the other speak; however on the outside had on a polite smile she perfected after years of practice. "I'm Nako nice to meet you Jungkook. How did you know I return favors?" She tried to think if maybe he saw her do that before or if she just had a reputation around town for it. Nako noticing his friendly behavior although it might just be because he wanted something from her took a good look at his looks. The first thing she saw was the piercing then the tattoo just only lead to her to panic even more. "Ahh well once again thank you for your help I promise one day soon I'll repay you. If that's all this is only the first of many items on my list. We both should finish up out shopping." Nako bowed once more as she tried to think about what to do in thanks before remembering she had some things left to make one more box of chocolate. "If I may know are you allergic to anything?" She asked as she wasn't trying to cause anyone to go into the hospital or even worst.
@โงห y. nako Jungkook found himself taking a step back from the woman to put some distance between them upon noticing how she seemed to freeze for a moment. He understood how intimidating he could come off sometimes from the sleeve tattoo he had to the eyebrow piercing, he was used to sometimes being looked at strangely. Albeit it was usually the older people who looked at him strangely which he expected after all they were used to being more conservative. "You're welcome" he quickly responded while returning the slight bow with one of his own only to watch as she grabbed her cart to what jungkook assumed was continue her grocery shopping. "Before you go I'm Jungkook just thought you'd like to know my name if you plan to return the favor. May I know your name as well?" He asked rather soft hoping he is coming off friendly while his head tilted the side slightly in curiosity his eyes mirroring that same curiosity, a small yet friendly smile settling on his lips.
@โงห j. jungkook It was after Nako dropped off her little sister off on her playdate that she had time to go to the supermarket grabbing a cart she walked inside humming to the tune that was playing. "Why oh why do they have to put this pasta so high up?" The small one mumbled standing on her tip toes trying to grab the first item in her list before sighing. She could always try to find a worker to help her with that thought she was about to grab her cart and move on until she heard a voice. "Oh, if you don't mind please thank you." She took the pasta with a thankful smiled before realizing it was a male that helped her. As much as Nako put on a very outgoing masked she was actually a huge introvert add a topping of her being secretly scared of male cause her to froze for a couple of seconds. The male before her looks very intimidating yet she does her best to remember how he looked like wanting to replay the favor of his help. "I should get the rest of the items on my list thank you again I'll return the favor soon." She slightly bow before grabbing her cart to walk away.
@โงห y. nako The tune playing over the speakers was pretty familiar, Jungkook just couldn't quite put his finger on it. His eyes squinted for a moment while his lips pursed slightly as he tried to figure out the tune. The small plastic basket hanging off arm close to his elbow swinging slightly as he took light, relaxed steps towards the fresh produce section of the supermarket. He found it almost funny how focused he was on finding out what the tune was that was until his gaze wandered away towards one of the random aisles he was walking past. There his eyes came to settle on the smaller figure of a woman as she seemingly reached up to get something off the shelf, something that was definitely way out of her reach. Without giving it a second though Jungkook found himself stopping in his tracks to instead make his way towards the aisle where he spotted the woman. It wasn't like Jungkook to see someone having trouble and just ignore them it just wasn't in his being to be able to do that. As much as he was an introvert that didn't mean he would turn a blind eye to someone having an issue even if it was just a small one. "Excuse me, do you need some help?" He asked while sending a curious gaze towards her as he already found his arm coming up to reach for the item on the shelf she had previously trying to reach. The corner of his lips turned up in a friendly smile hoping it would bring some comfort as Jungkook knows with his appearance it may be a bit intimidating. "Here you go" His voice was soft as he sent her yet another smile
