🍃- Hi!! It took a lot of time for me to write this story so I hope you like it.🍃

AUTHOR POV :

In New York, it was past 1:00 p.m., but Jimin was still sleeping on his bed as if he had some sort of night shift yesterday night and he was really tired from working all night, but........ that's wasn't the case he was just a freshman in his first year of university who just turned legally turned 18 and neither does he have a legal job.

So in celebration of his turning 18 Jimin wanted to throw a party, which he did so last night he invited his friends and also invited freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors, etc, from his University even tho he didn't know them, almost everyone from his University came except teacher which is pretty obvious and he carelessly likes to spend his money.

It has been quite a few months since he joined the university, but after joining the university he never went to attend any of his classes since he joined.

He was always going to parties, hanging out with his friends, or doing something but nothing productive technically, he was never serious about his grades because he was unexpectedly good at it, and even if he wasn't, he would've passed anyway somehow.

Last night he was in the club almost the whole night, drinking, smoking, hanging out with some random girl as usual having all sorts of freedom and fun since he entered adulthood as if he wasn't having fun before.

After he came back home somehow in one piece he slept, he didn't even bother to change into his nightwear cause he didn't have enough patience neither was he sober enough to do anything.

In the evening While he was still dead asleep in his bed peacefully, his phone started ringing disturbing his peaceful sleep.

JIMIN POV :
*Ring ring*

I woke up from the buzzing sound of my phone ringing and vibrating quite a few times somewhere near me but I was still lying in bed half awake and half asleep, my back facing the ceiling and the right side of my face being smashed against the pillow, I was too comfortable in my bed to get up check who was calling or even sit in the bed.

It was so peaceful but that dang phone call was ruining my moment with my bed "Ugh so annoying" I mumbled,

I was still half asleep and my head felt like it's gonna explode right now but I had received the call so I woke up and sat down on the bed, rubbed my eyes, and blinked a few times cause I rubbed my eye a little too hard so I started to see the universe for few seconds. after a few seconds, I came to my senses and started looking around, looking for my phone and it was on my table, so I grabbed it and saw the caller's name and it was Mr.Park (dad), 'why is dad suddenly calling me at this early???? By the way is it morning or evening I checked the time on my phone and it was 1:02 pm 'it's 1:02 pm in New York so according to the difference between the timeline between where I live and where Dad lives I mean New York and Seoul, Seoul's timeline is 14 hours ahead of New York Timeline so it means it's midnight!!, I mean why is he awake late at midnight I mean it would be 2:00 am in Seoul right now in a hurry I received the call before the line cut from the other side.

"Umm.Hello dad??" I greeted, ' We don't really talk in Korean since I am not good at it so we generally talk in English rather than Korean
I asked him after I greeted Mr. Park I mean Dad,
For a while, I didn't get any response, so both sides got silent.

After a while he replied to my greetings "Hi Jimin-ah...... it's been a while since we last talked isn't it?" he said in a sweet, calm voice, I could feel his little smile through the phone like he always does when we used to talk, That smile never changes since the day I was adopted from orphanage it's still the same.

We haven't seen or talked to each other for a few weeks cause he is a very busy person so am I but not like Dad he always has some sort of work or assigns someone work but anyway I kind of missed his voice.

After hearing his voice a smile formed on my face and I replied "Yeah it really has been Dad" "Hmm... so how have you been, everything is alright over there right??? Is someone bothering you by any chance?" He asked, "I have been doing just like before, and yeah everything going smoothly in New York no one seems to be bothering anyone or the work so yeah it's all great..... How about you dad, how have you been in those past few weeks???" I asked "I mean I am just doing fine but kind of busy cause there are some issues I have to deal with but it'll be fine so yah...." he answered, I was about to ask who 'what issues' he was talking about but he continued "and Jimin-ah I have something to say to you or should I say I have a favor to ask you," he said in a bit of a serious tone, I was a bit confused he rarely ever asked me for any favors before but I mean if he is asking for it then it may be something important so I have to do it "umm... I mean yeah for sure I'll do whatever it is Dad" I answered not even knowing what he wanted me to do.

AUTHOR POV

It was 2:00 am, midnight in New York and Mr.Park was in his office which was in his house, he was sitting on his chair anxiously after taking a warm bath and he was only wearing a white robe.

He was looking out of the apartment's window which his whole apartment was made of glass which gives the room transparency.

MR.PARK POV

It's almost 2:00 am in Seoul but I still can't really sleep, what would be the time in New York right now????

I have to call Jimin to ask for a favor, I don't really want him to do that neither do I wanna ask him, but..... I don't think anyone else would be able to do that other than Jimin, it's really really dangerous, but I can't leave him as he is right now. So I finally made up my mind and decided to call him but before I called him I should check the time if it was night or morning in New York I unlocked my phone and checked the world clock and in New York, it was 1:00 pm right now so probably jimin should be up by now so maybe it's it the right time to call him... I am still hesitating but I think I have to do it.

AUTHORS POV :

The conversation continued

Mr. Park said, "Thank you Jimin ah, This might be a little risky so I want you to think before you say anything don't come to a conclusion that easily".
Jimin continued "No no it's truly okay I would never say no to you Dad you know it, just say it I don't really care if it's risky, cause the more risk the more fun it is and I love that" Mr. Park chuckled at his words "you are just like my younger self".
