Bangtan Imagines

Jungkook. Parent's day.

"Good Morning Ajussi" you said cheerfully to Mr.Jeon as you passed by his store going home from buying ingredients from the convenience store, an errand your aunt sent you to do.

Mr. Jeon Ilgook was your next door neighbor and you knew him since you moved in the neighborhood 3 years ago. He had this small sports apparell store a few blocks from your house.

"Y/n, how many times do I have to tell you to call me samcheon (uncle) from now on?" he replied flashing a big smile. The wrinkles around his eyes showed and for a man in his 50s, he looks quite the charmer. He's also very friendly, outgoing and a smart businessman. That's why his business is so successful.

"oh, right!, I forgot, yes yes.. uhh.. Ilgook samcheon, do you need help?" you smiled at him and offered help as you lifted one box and brought it inside the store.

"ai.. you don't have to do that.." he said as you stacked the box along with the other boxes.

"you are so kind, Thank you." he said with a smile.

'"I'll get the remaining boxes outside.." you said as you went out of the store again.

"Aish.." Mr. Jeon said as he held his hand up trying to stop you from helping him but you were already out the door. He felt uneasy having you help him lifting boxes because its usually a man's job. But you insisted and gave him a smile as you hand him 2 big boxes. He smiled back and thanked you again.

You looked around and wondered why Mr. Jeon was alone and why the store hasnt opened yet.

"Ilgook samcheon, are you not opening today? Are your new staff usually late like this?" you asked as you looked at the multi-colored running shoes displayed by the window.

"Oh, I decided to give them the day off in exchange of being here the whole day tomorrow.." he said as he counted the boxes and scribbled something in his notebook.

"Oh,.." you said.

You turned around to face him and you  saw him inspecting each box carefully.

"..but it looks like you have so much to do.. don't you need help?" you ask.

"It's a lot of work but its not something I haven't done before so it should be easy.." he said.

"What exactly are you going to do today?" you ask him as you peek at the sheet of paper he was writing on.

"Oh, it's the inventory. These (pointing to like 50 shoe boxes and 1 big box of work out equipment and 2 boxes of clothing) came in today so I have to record each item and add it to the inventory.." he said as he sighed and prepared himself for a long day.

"I can help you a little bit if you want. but I have to get these to my aunt first.." you said showing him a black bag full of ingredients.

"you don't have to help me... I can manage.." he said waving both his hands in front of you.

"oh.. But I do.. And I would like to help you. I've done it before remember.. when I used to work here during summer break last year." you reminded him. A year ago you would call him boss or ajussi but being neighbors, your family had build up a close friendship with him and his wife. You and Mr. Jeon grew especially close as you used to worked as a cashier and salesperson in his shop and you just loved being near him... because he reminded you of your father.

"well.. I guess you could.." he didn't finish his sentence.

"Great! I'll be back Ilgook samcheon!" you said waving your hand as you went home.

Mr. Jeon just smiled at your bubbliness.
