Accidental encounter

5

"Hey, Jungkook. Wake up!" she said poking his shoulder. "Hmm?" was all he could say as he took his time to process what was going on. "We need to freshen you up and get you out in an hour" she said smiling. "Sure" he answered rubbing his eyes. "The members have departed from Mumbai. They should be here in about an hour and a half?" she continued. He got up with a stiff back and rushed to the washroom. "Come on out. Let's get you your breakfast." she said getting off the bed when he exited the washroom. "Upma." she said as she offered him a spoon as he took his seat at the table as her mother placed a plate full of a spongy looking blob. He poked it with a spoon suspiciously. He took a bite nevertheless. "uhmm.... It's good." he nodded and smiled as he took another bite. "Take some more" her mother offered as she smiled. "Don't fill yourself up too much. I'm treating you at a restaurant later, when the members arrive. "she said ruffling his hair slightly. He smiled and nodded with a mouthful.

 Half an hour later they departed to a restaurant. They waited in the lobby as every passing member smiled or greeted the girl by his side. "You know a lot of people" Jungkook pointed. "Well my mum owns this place so, of course they do" she smiled. "Your mom does?" he said sounding surprised. "Yeah she used to take tuitions because she used to be really bored at home. But, then when her health worsened the doctor told us to cut her some mental slack .So, dad got her to stop the tuitions. But, she got bored real quick. So dad bought this hotel and got us to manage it hoping I would gain some experience too. What he didn't expect was that I made a better control than he ever did. He was proud of it." she smiled. "Good job! That was really cool." he smiled High-fiving her." They're here" she said pointing at the entrance of the plaza where a black vehicle had pulled in.

 A man went ahead telling them not to park there. "They're with me" she rushed to say making the man bow slightly and move away.
" Alesha?" A man who got off from the driver's seat of the car asked. " Yup that's me. Avinash?" she smiled earning a nod, " Please this way" she said moving to a side. " I'll park and be back." He said getting back in. "It's actually a bit complicated. How about you let me do it?" she offered. "You're of age?" he asked. "No but, I can. Trust me." she smiled. "Well let the members get off then" he said turning his head. "Don't do that. Why do you think I offered to park?" she sighed. "How would I know?" he replied. "Koi dekh lega[ Somebody will see]" she answered earning an "Ohh " from him. "There's Jungkook." she pointed at the young man who gleamed at the sight of a known face. "You sure you can do this?" he asked one last time. "Trust me. Go straight in and ask for my reservation. They'll take you. I'll get them in from the backdoor. " she said reassuringly. "You sure?" he asked again. "Yeah" she added getting into the seat.

 "How are you all this fine morning?" she smiled to the members as she looked at the manager dashing off to Jungkook's side and smiled at the relief on man's face. "No offense but, you're underage. You shouldn't be driving" Namjoon pointed. "I shouldn't but, no one will know." she smiled. She swiftly maneuvered a sharp but, professional turn. "Enough to gain your trust?" she asked stepping on the gas pedal. "Definitely" taehyung smiled. "Why are we going away from them?" Jin asked. "I'm taking you in through the backdoor. A group as good looking as you is easy to recognize " she explained. "What's your name?" Jimin asked. "Alesha" she answered.  "How old are you?" Yoongi asked. "Sweet 16" she answered. 

"So where'd you guys visit?" she asked. "Nowhere because we were too busy looking for Taehyung and Jungkook." Hobi answered glumly. "Good 'ol Taekook up to mischief" she smiled pulling smoothly through a small rugged patch and pulling in. "Come on, that's our spot" she said pointing at a metal door. "Looks creepy" Hobi shuddered. "Pretty's on the inside~" she sang slightly. "Nice voice" Jin complimented. "Nowhere near your level , handsome" she smiled turning the vehicle off. "Good eyesight too" Jin laughed to himself. The alighted the vehicle. She quickly pulled the door which came off with a clang and a cobweb. "It's been too long since we used this way. So it's a bit dirty" she said waving away the cobwebs. "No insects right?" Jin asked. "None that I see" she answered. "Meaning?" Jin asked to Namjoon who shrugged. They followed her to a room. "Well gentlemen, here's your lost bunny" she said opening the door to reveal Jungkook and his manager. "Kookie~" Taehyung said as he flew into the others awaiting open arms. "How could you leave me?" Taehyung wailed hitting the other who chuckled slightly on the chest. 

"Please take a seat" she offered. "Thank you" Namjoon smiled. A few heartwarming exchanges later they took the offered seats. "Go ahead and order" she said passing  them the Menu's. "What was that your mom made?" Jungkook asked. "Sweetie that was for breakfast. Try something different this time. By any chance do you remember when Jimin said he was eating something that looked like Tofu but tasted like milk?" she asked. He nodded and so did the members. "That's paneer. It's actually a really common dish in India." she explained. "Me! I want that" Jimin bobbed in his seat. "Sure. Spicy? Sweet? Full of flavors? How would you like it?" she asked. "No spicy" Taehyung said. "Full of flavors" Jin said. "Something to go with it? Naan? Rice? Tortilla?" she asked. "I like naan" Namjoon said slightly raising a palm. "Sure." she said. "Naan. Paneer masala aur starter me Gobi Manchurian aur mini samosa kardo.[She ordered food for them]" she said to the waiter who jotted it down and rushed away.
