Full Moon

Chapter 5: I'm here to apply for work

3rd POV

The following day...

"Looks like someone just got up from his grave," said Taehyung who's sitting on the single sofa. He took a sip from his coffee before glancing to the staircase where a sleepy man had just come down from.

"Please, not now." Jimin mumbled before walking sluggishly to the kitchen and opening the fridge to grab a small carton of strawberry milk.

The front door opened and in entered Ayla holding three plastic bags full of ingredients. "I swear Jimin, you gotta hire someone to help me do the grocery and the baking."

She placed all the groceries on the kitchen island and sat on the stool. "You know these two don't know a thing about baking. All they know is to eat and fatten themselves." She complained.

Jimin just nodded his head languidly. His eyes half-closed while spacing out at his milk.

"Morning." Said Hoseok who came out fresh from the bathroom. A piece of towel securely hung around his waist, leaving his upper body bare and naked.

"Me-likey." Taehyung purred while eyeing his boyfriend's six-pack abs, droplets of water dripping and disappearing under the towel. The latter just smirked before going upstairs into their shared bedroom.

A gagging sound was heard from Ayla. "Gross." She shivered and rubbed her arms from what she just witnessed.

"You call that fats, huh?" Taehyung teased with a smirk.

She rolled her eyes before standing up and arranging the groceries. "Whatever. Yah! Jimin-ah! Stop staring at your milk and freshen up. We're opening in an hour."

"Lower your voice, Ayla. Issy's still sleeping." Taehyung shushed.

"She's out." Ayla said.

"Again?"

"You know her."

"Isn't she out too often?"

"Said it's a form of exercising."

"You mean 'playing' with the other kids."

Ayla nodded her head.

"Still. What if someone kidnaps her? We're all dead meat to Mr. and Mrs. Park."

"Tae, calm down. I made sure she's safe before coming back here."

"You guys are so noisy." Jimin yawned and rubbed his eyes before standing up and throwing the empty carton of milk in the trash can.

"Jimin, aren't you bothered?" Tae asked worriedly.

Jimin gave a tiny but reassuring smile. "I'm worried too. But would you want to restrict her from going out when she comes home with the biggest smile?"

"Exactly." agreed Ayla.

Taehyung doesn't look convinced, but when he recalls her huge smile every time she comes home, he knows he can't restrict her too. He just felt worried that someone would kidnap her while they were busy working. Who'd save her then?

"Just gonna take a bath." Jimin announced and disappeared upstairs.

"About damn time." Ayla said. "Hey, you!"

"Yes, You?"

Ayla rolled her eyes at Tae's response. "Go check on your boyfriend. We're opening soon." She ordered.

"Yes, mom!" He replied before walking to the counter and placing the empty mug on the sink. "Can you wash this for me too, mom?" He grinned before scurrying away from her and disappearing upstairs. Hearing him sing 'mother knows best'.
