He's on the other end of the corridor. Two office workers also halt for a second, casting awkward glances at both of you before resuming their respective ways.
"What the fuck..." you murmur.
Both of you walk towards each other.
"You left this..." he says.
"Oh - shoot. Thanks."
It was your smaller personal phone. It must have fallen out of your pocket when you were sitting. You take it from him and stuff it back into your pocket.
Both of you stand there in the corridor, waiting for the other person to say something. But neither does.
"Y/N!"
Once again, a familiar voice calls you from behind. There's the sound of running feet and the soft hug of an excited twelve-year-old envelops your waist.
"Whoa, Rhea! You're here already?" you laugh, hugging her back.
"Y/N, you haven't forgotten our plan, have you? WE have to go to soo many places..."
"I haven't, I haven't! Where's Mom?" you ask. You think Rhea stopped talking because you interrupted her, but actually, she is staring at Suga behind you, mid hug.
"Oh, boy..." you say, remembering how she had cried watching Suga's video that you had got for her last time. And now he was here in the flesh. Rhea was too shocked for words.
"Go on, introduce yourself," you nudge gently. You try not to laugh as you guide her to Suga by her shoulders. She's trembling alright.
"Hey Rhea," Suga says softly, getting on his knees to come to Rhea's eye level.
Rhea adjusts her ponytail and her red sweater before launching into a formal introduction in Korean.
Suga's face brightens up as he talks to the kid. He doesn't talk much himself but listens to Rhea with genuine interest, even when her Korean falters a little and she becomes even more conscious.
"I didn't know you had company," Monica whispers next to you.
"Yikes, when did you get here?" you jump.
"Just now. I should get her -"
"No, don't. Let her have her moment," you grin. "I thought she'd scream and bring the house down, but she's doing well."
Right then, she screams and gives Suga a bear hug. He chuckles and pats her head. She breaks away and runs back to you.
"Auntie!"
"What? You only call me that when you need something," you squint your eyes at her.
"Auntie, can Suga come with us to Daegu?"
Pause.
"Can he? Can he? Please?"
"Hein?" you shake your head, not understanding where this came from.
"I told him that you and I were going to Daegu today and turns out he's going there too - like he leaves in an hour and we still have time before we leave too - so I invited him and he told me to ask you first! You know it's his hometown right? Actually that is why I thought we could go there too and it's really really beautiful too -"
Rhea continues to talk while you glare at Suga with raised eyebrows. He simply shrugs.
"Rhea," Monica cuts in, "don't insist."
"But Mom, please -!"
"Suga, please don't feel pressured to do anything you're not comfortable with..." Monica says.
"Hey - you're supposed to watch out for my comfort," you pout at Monica.
Meanwhile, Suga responds, "no, no. It's no trouble at all." He smiles at her, but then when he looks at you, he's got that mischievous little grin back again.
Well, what the hell.
"I guess we could go together then..." you give in to Rhea's pleas.
She squeals, stopping only after Monica glares at her.
"Wait. Give me your number," you hand him your phone. He feeds it in and hands it back to you. Rhea looks at your phone longingly. "May I...? She asks. "No you don't," you chuckle.
You glance at him. What nickname would suit him? You think about the first time you both met.
"Give me a call," he says.
"I will."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rhea can't stop talking as you and Monica return home in your car.
"Mom, mom, mom I can't believe I'm like seriously going out with Suga of BTS - Y/N, Y/N we have to go for a picnic together please -"
"Hey we're not spending the day together or anything -" you cut in.
"-no, no I asked him for a picnic he said he'll think about it -"
"Rhea, don't trouble him or your auntie, you understand?" Monica says.
"Yes, mom," Rhea nods in obedience.
"My god, I should seriously learn Korean. What all did you end up planning?"
"Not much. You'll see."
"Y/N. I shouldn't have to say this, but be careful. You shouldn't be seen together at any cost," Monica places a hand on your shoulder as she talks. "This is Korea. Things are taken a lot more seriously. I don't know why he's even risking it."
You've been wondering that too.
"Yeah, I know I've got to be careful. I don't think I can afford a single extra issue on my head these days." The album is on your mind again.
Then Rhea speaks up suddenly, "By the way, how does he know your lock pattern?"
"What lock pattern?"
"Your phone lock pattern, Y/N!"
Of course. You'd shown it to him the night of the performance when he kept needing it for translations.
Shit.
"No, he doesn't. You can put in your number without unlocking it," you look out the window as you talk.
"Oh, I swear I saw him unlock it...anyway..."
Gladly, Rhea moves on to safer topics.
