Loving Min Yoongi: How To Love Him

Chapter 58

Sunday the group arrived back at Incheon Airport. They had chartered a private jet, so they unloaded on the tarmac. Alex had her mask on as she and Ji-Hoon exited the plain and headed to their car, while the guys split up in two other cars. 

Once they were driving, Alex dropped her mask and looked over at Ji-Hoon, "Are you glad to be back home?"

Ji-Hoon nodded his head, "We've got a busy week ahead of us before we head over to the states. I'm going to see my family tonight before we get stuck in the office all week."

"Yeah, I need to go back over my notes for the interview with the BTS parents on Wednesday." Alex was still a bit nervous about meeting all of them, but after getting to know the guys she felt much more comfortable about it than she had at the beginning of the tour. 

After Alex got back home, she unpacked and took a shower. Even though it was a hotel, it was the closest thing to a "home" she had since leaving the states last year. She was relaxing in bed when her phone rang. She smiled when she saw it was Yoongi.

Alex: Hi

My Kryptonite: Hi

(silence)

Alex: OK bye

My Kryptonite: No wait!

Alex: (laughing) I wasn't hanging up, what's up?

My Kryptonite: So, when do you think I'll get to see you before you leave?

Alex: I don't know, I'll be at HYBE pretty much all week. This Wednesday is the interview with your parents.

My Kryptonite: Are you nervous still?

Alex: A little. I mean, It's like I have seven boyfriends and I'm meeting all of their parents at once.

(Silence)

My Kryptonite: Don't ever put it that way again.

Alex: (laughing) Oh come on, you're still my favorite. 

My Kryptonite: Uh huh, cute. So back to us. Do you think we can do lunch one day at the office? We can meet in my studio.

Alex: Yeah, I think that could work. Just let me know what day so I can make sure my schedule is empty.

My Kryptonite: OK. I'm gonna head to bed. Night Lex.

Alex: Night Yoongi

"Oh for fuck's sake!" Yoongi was yelling at his phone the following afternoon.

RM's head snapped over to Yoongi when he heard him curse, "What's wrong?"

Yoongi took his phone over to RM to show him, "This! This crap again! What is wrong with people?" He pointed to his screen so RM could see the headline. 

"Mystery girl exits plane with BTS as they arrive back in South Korea. An employee describes what he saw . . . ."

"Can't she catch a break?" Yoongi was pacing around the room. He knew this was just going to make her even more paranoid now. He flopped down on the couch.

"They still can't see her face, and it was from really far away." RM tried lightening the mood.

Yoongi nodded his head, "I know that. YOU know that. She won't see it that way though. She takes it upon herself to carry the burden from things like this, to keep us from getting bad publicity."

"That's not her job. She's in the media because she's doing her job. People just don't know that yet."

"I know, we just need to make it a few more weeks till the teasers are dropped, then all of this will blow over. I just need to keep her from freaking out until then." He grabbed his phone back from RM. Maybe she hadn't seen the article yet.
