writer’s POV:
Jimin smiled at Jungkook, holding the box having the vase they made together and the cups too.
Jimin smiled while driving to the next destination. Jungkook was smiling with content, he can’t wait to keep the vase on the dining table and every day fill it with a new flower, plucking them from their garden. The cups will be used when they will cuddle together and watch a movie.
“As a memorial of this day, I thought to do something. ” Jimin said while driving to an area which is a little far from the main city. The place was filled with huge trees giving the vibe of a forest. The place had silence while rarely some cars passing by.
He stops the car and smiled at confused Jungkook. He smiled and steps out of the car and opening the trunk. Jungkook keeps the earthware carefully in the backseat and steps out closing the door behind.
“What are you doing?” Jungkook asked walking behind the car and Jimin pulls out a small plant. The tiny plant stunned Jungkook.
“This…” Jungkook whispered and held the plant when Jimin was taking the all equipment out of the car. Jimin smiled shutting the trunk and held Jungkook’s hand while guiding him inside the forest.
They walked inside with silence with dry leaves being crushed with each step. They glance around the place. They didn’t go too deep into the forest, just in the 4-5 meter inside, and stood in front of open space.
“Let’s plant it here,” Jimin said while pushing all the waste such as dry leaves, twigs with his foot.
They both dig the spot and carefully placed the plant inside the earth and pouring water on it.
“Let’s name this plant. ” Jimin said taking a marker and wrote the name on the tissue paper.ย Jungkook chuckled, “Don’t you think the paper will get washed away with rain?” Jungkook asked while pressing the soil carefully around the plant with his palm.ย Jimin clicks his tongue nodding his head.
“I’m always prepared,” Jimin said and took the naming plate writing the name on it. Jungkook chuckles, wiping his sweat with the sleeve. Jimin placed the name in front of the plant and quickly washed his hand with water, which he brought along the way.
“Wash your hand. ” Jimin pours water on Jungkook’s hand and wipes it with a handkerchief. Jungkook peeks at the name and blushes.
“Jikook?” He whispers looking at Jimin wiping the sweat from his face.
“It’s Jimin and Jungkook. #Jikook. ” Jimin explained with a smile.
“Probably after 20 years. We’ll see it growing up being strong. This plant will symbolize our marriage, our love, our trust, our strength, our vitality.” Jimin continued while looking at the plant with adoration.
Jungkook looks at Jimin with love shining in his eyes. He smiled while interlocking his fingers with Jimin and stood next to him.
“Can we visit every year?” Jungkook asked smiling at the plant. Only if the green plant could turn red with shyness, it probably would.
“We can…” Jimin replied smiling widely to Jungkook who leans forward placing a brief kiss on the lips.
“Let’s go, it almost evening now. ” Jimin spoke after the kiss and Jungkook blinks his eyes and nods his head.
…๐ธ๐ฎ๐ธ…
“I’ll park the car in the garage first. ” Jimin spoke as soon as Jungkook steps out of the car. Jungkook nodded his head and looks at their home with furrowed eyebrows. All the lights were off.
“Isn’t Noona home?” He mumbles while ringing the bell. It didn’t open by the maid.
“Noona?” He held the door and it was open. Something is very fishy here.
“Jimโ” Jungkook turns around to call.
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” Jungkook flinched in his place while he keeps his hand on the thumping heart which got a sudden shock.
There stood his dear family consisting of Jungkook’s parents, his in-laws, and his dear friend Taehyung and maid Noona having wide smiles on their faces.
Taehyung and Noona were holding confetti and Mrs. Jeon and Mrs. Park were holding a chocolate cake; his favorite with lots of chocolate toppings. Mr. Jeon and Mr. Park were holding balloons and everyone was wearing birthday caps. The hall was decorated with different balloons, flowers glitter.
Jungkook was almost tearing up. The surprise took him off guard. He smiled through tears and Jimin walks in and loops his right arm on Jungkook’s shoulder who looks at him and hides his face on Jimin’s neck hugging him tightly.
“Omo…today is your birthday. Why are you crying, my dear? ” Mrs. Park quickly walks to him and wipes his tears.
“This idiot did something right? I told you to take of my son, didn’t I?” Mrs. Park held Jimin’s ear playfully and pulls it lightly.
“Ah, Eomma no~” Jimin whines holding his ear and standing on his tiptoe. Jungkook chuckled sniffing and shook his head.
“Ooi, don’t touch my son. ” Mrs. Jeon playfully slaps Mrs. Park’s hand while caressing Jimin’s hair.
“Ahem, the cake is waiting. ” Mr. Park clears his throat.
The rest of the night was spent eating cake and playing games. Finally, the family went home.ย Jungkook forcefully sent Noona home too who wanted to clean the house. Reluctantly, she had to agree and leave the couple alone.
“Pearl~ go and take shower. I will take care of all these. ” Jimin spoke pushing Jungkook out of the kitchen who wanted to wash dishes.
“Hubby!” Jungkook keeps his hand on his waist and glaring at Jimin.
“Yes, I’m your hubby and you are my pearl. Now go and shower, you must be very tired, birthday boy. ” Jimin pinched his cheeks while cooing at his cute face.
“My pearl is so cute~” Jimin chuckled and kissed his forehead.
“Now go. I’ll take care of everything. ” Jimin told while caressing his cheek. Reluctantly, Jungkook agreed and sighed while leaving the kitchen as he walks upstairs.
“I can never be angry at him. ” Jungkook whines as he opens the bathroom and removing his shirt. He smirks getting something in his head, probably to make Jimin stop breathing.
“Let’s check, hotness check, let’s see the effect I have on Hubby yeah!” Jungkook skips his steps to the bathtub and on the faucet while humming the tune.

Jimin’s POV:
My pearl is cute when he is angry. He looks like a chipmunk while pouting. I wipe the plates and keeping them back in their respective place.
I took a bag and removed all the decorative items from the wall and kept it inside the bag. I sighed seeing so many balloons on the floor. What should I do with them? Should I leave them as it is? I think I should wait until tomorrow. Maybe pearl will know what to do with these.
I tied the bag, keeping it in the storeroom; some other day they can be useful. I wipe the sweat with my sleeve and shook my head feeling my hair wet. I need a quick shower. Speaking of which, is pearl done with the shower.
I locked the door and turned off the lights in the living room. I walked upstairs cracking my knuckles. I hope, I gave him a good surprise. Mom said that he loves pottery and since he loves the garden, I thought to plant in our name and this surprise was the main event. I was buying time for them to finish everything on time.
I open the bedroom and frown when I didn’t see him. Where did he go? “Pearl…” I knocked on the bathroom. But, there was no response. There is this sudden uneasiness in my heart. “Angel…” I call again and look around hastily. Where did he go?
He can’t be in the guestroom as we do not use it. It’s finally used by the name room for guests. Did he go somewhere? But, he should have informed me. He knows I’ll get worried here.
“Pearl!” I knocked on the bathroom again. This time a little bit with force.
It was finally opened and I didn’t leave a second and hugged him tightly. “Angel! God, for a second you scared me. ” I embraced him tightly and shut my eyes.
“I’m sorry, I was showering,” He hugs me back while whispering. ” and I don’t have the habit of speaking from the bathroom…I feel shy…” He continued as he broke the hug.
“But, what if something surely happened and how will I know it! ” I spoke with a little bit of anger, holding his shoulders.
“What if…” I hugged him again.
“I know, I might be overreacting. Still, when there was no response, I got so scared you know! Just this habit of yours, change it, pearl. I don’t want anything else. “
“I apologize, I won’t repeat it. But, I didn’t think you will get scared. You should have thought since the bathroom is not opening meaning someone is inside and obviously, it’ll be me. ” He smiled pinching my cheek.
“When it comes to you…” I caress his cheek. “My mind doesn’t work properly, the only thought was, where is my pearl!”
“Since you call me, angel, Pearl, etc, I thought to call you something other than hubby. ” He giggles still in my arms. I smiled knowing he is trying to lighten the mood.
“Oh, trust me Pearl, the effect when you call me ‘hubby’ is something I can’t describe. I just feel butterflies in me as I know you call only me your hubby. ” I smiled finally noticing the soft satin fabric between my fingers. I look down and gulp. What is he wearing?
“Oh, hubby~” He smiled looping his arms around my neck while the red robe moves aside showing his chest. I gulp feeling my throat getting dry.
“How do you manage to look beautiful every time? ” I whispered gliding my hand on his back and another one over his bare thigh. He bites his lips, threading his fingers with my hair.
“It’s just your eyes, Jiminie. ” He whispered breathing over my lips. I a took deep breath and his intoxicating scent hits me hard.
“The way you take my breath away,” I whispered back, holding him securely in my arms.
“The same way you do to me. ” He replied keeping his head on my shoulder.
“I’m stinky and need to shower. ” I smiled placing a soft kiss on his forehead. He smiled nodding his head.
“Quickly!” He said giggling and kissing my cheek.
“Yes, Your Highness.” I bowed my head, keeping my right hand over my chest. He slaps my shoulder and pushing me inside the bathroom.
I remember something, “Pearl!” I turn around when he looks at me. “I kept some paper inside the second drawer on the wardrobe. Can you keep it on the table?” I requested and he nods his head.
“Of course,” He smiled and turns around to compile the task. I lean against the door frame, waiting for his reaction.
“This one?” He showed me the envelope while closing the wardrobe.
“Open it. ” He gave a confused look but opened the envelope. There were two tickets to Switzerland and our passports.
The way he gasped while looking at it with disbelief. I chuckled at his cute face which lit up like a moon. My beautiful Pearl.
“Happy Birthday, My Pearl.” I smiled at him “Careful!!” He just jumped in my arms, hugging me tightly.
“Haha…Pearl, it tickles. ” I chuckled when he continued peppering kisses on my neck. He breaks the hug and looks at me with teary eyes.
“Why is my pearl holding pearls in his eyes?” I caress his cheek while he hums and hugged me tightly.
“I’m so happy! I’m blessed to me-meet you. ” His voice cracked a little at the end.
“Pearlโ”
“You have done so much on my birthday. I don’t want anything else from this world, just one wish…” He breaks the hug but still in my arms. “I wish to take my last breath in your arms. ” He continued as if literary making the wish with his eyes closed.
“Pearl! Don’t talk about such things. ” I hugged him tightly feeling nervousness enveloping me. “Don’t talk such things. ” I continued pulling him closer if possible.
“But, that’s the truth. Some day I have to diโ”
“PEARL!!” I raised my voice.
“I said stop! never say such things!” I kept my forehead against his. “Don’t want to know it…” I whispered closing my eyes.
“I’m sorry, Your Pearl is here and Your angel will forever be with you. Your love with stay with you. ” He apologized caressing my hair. He knows that it always calms me. I nodded my head with an absent mind.
“Pearl loves you so much,”
“Hubby loves you to the back of the universe. “
