My Blind Date is a Gangster | Taejin ✓

36. Epiphany

✴ Seokjin ✴

I am getting frustrated at this hotel. If only Chim's restaurant team got to cater this ball, it would've become easier for me to get what I wish to eat.

I was asking for the simplest thing - just kimchi and pickled radish! How come they can't provide it?!

Sigh. I don't know why but I can't seem to eat much these days without kimchi on the side. And I sometimes order jjajangmyeon just for the free pickled radish, and found myself not eating the jjajangmyeon itself, just the radish! It's weird I know, but I guess it's normal to crave sometimes especially when I'm tired from work, right?!

I was about to ask Soobin again to follow up my food, when the waiter already came with my plate.

"Excuse me, CEO Kim. Here's your steak, cooked in medium rare, with kimchi and pickled radish on the side."

I smiled at the strong smell of the side dishes, especially the kimchi, and my mouth just starts to water!

Then I heard the waiter whispered, "Served with love, from Tae. Sorry, Sir. I was asked to say that!"

I looked at the waiter as I was surprised, he slightly bowed at me before he walked away. Then I scanned the room to find Tae. When our eyes met, Tae winked at me which made me giggle softly.

I think Ken noticed it, so he whispered to me and said, "Are you laughing, Jinnie? Oh, what's that? Kimchi with your steak?!"

"Ah yeah. I'm just happy they were able to serve it as I requested." Ken just smiled slightly. Then I started digging on my plate while the steak is still hot.

As the program proper starts, Jin tried to find Jimin and Hobi at the party. Then he found them chatting with one of the videographers. He walked to them and was surprised to see who it was, "Yoong--"

Jimin quickly cut Jin off and said, "Agust D. His name is Agust D. He's a camera director right now, Jin!"

Then Hobi chuckled softly at Jin who's looking confused. He whispered, "They're undercover so we have to use other names. Clever, right?!"

"Oh okay-- Agust D?! What does D stand for?!" Jin asked.

"Director, camera director. Gosh Jin, you're so slow lately." Jimin said. Then Jin rolled his eyes at him and said, "Okaayyy.. Seriously, can't you come up with a better 'disguise name'??"

Jimin laughed as he shushed Jin. Hobi then spoke, "Jin, Ken looks quite stunning tonight, doesn't he? Wasn't he asking to get back with you or something?! I bet Taehyung is up on his edge right now."

"Right. Like super on edge, babe! If I didn't know any better, he must be sulking in the toilet right now, questioning why life is so cruel to him." Yoongi said, laughing.

Then Taehyung hissed at their earpods, "Fuck you and your skinny ass, Yoongs! Jin won't even think of looking at that Ken after everything we've had!"

"Really? Oh no, Tae isn't like that at all. He knows he's greater in so many ways." Jin smiled. Then he wickedly smirked back at Hobi.

"Awww.." Jimin and Hobi said in unison, as if teasing Jin.

"Pfftt.." Yoongi smirked as he heard Tae giggling thru his ear.

"By the way, Hobi, I just saw Kai with his parents. I heard he's single again. Is that why you're wearing an open-chest suit? I remember you both used to wear that style during parties." Jin said while pressing his lips to hold back his laughter.
