Yoongi arrived at work a little late, not officially late, but late to him. He is usually there by six-thirty because some of the players come in to work out in the morning, so he is there if they need anything. Yoongi is the basketball coach of the private high school that he works for it is the beginning of the season.
He has been working with his kids since near the end of summer, tryouts were done and over with, and school had been in session for a few weeks now. As Yoongi came through the sports complex he was turning on lights as he went, he was amazed as he ducked his head in the weight room and there were only two kids this morning. "Hey, Coach."
They both said at the same time as he waved and walked back out. He went through the locker room, some of the lights were on but not all and he turned them on as he was walking toward his office. His office door stood wide open, which he knew he locked and closed the night before, he could see the principal of the school with a few parents that he didn't recognize.
"Coach?"Manseok?"Everyone this is Coach Min Yoongi, Coach these are three transfers that would like to join the team."Yoongi looked at the three boys and then at their parents. "They will have to try out."
"Coach they come from other schools and they were good on their teams," Manseok responded. "And the kids on this team are good as well, they will come to practice and I will see how they do. I have seen one maybe two of these boys play before."

"Coach, is there anything I can do to persuade you to let my boy on your team?" One of the fathers stated. "No, there isn't, and I will not let that go against my judgment of your son. I know your son is a quarterback and I would like to see him in action.
As I know this kid is a great tight end. This one I haven't seen before." He looked over at the end and saw a man standing with his son.
"What do you play?"Full-back, Sir."What school?"Out of state, played at Calgary High."What's your name?"Jung Taemin, Sir."
"You are a Sophomore?" The kid nodded. "You went to Garfield Middle School, played all three years?"Yes, Sir."I didn't know your father was in the picture."
"He's not this is my Uncle."The principal spoke up. "I didn't know you would know this kid personally."

"I don't, I was asked to come to watch him play by the high school and his coach a few years ago to give some pointers. Never spoke to him. But the coach was very concerned about him and gave me his background."
At that moment Jimin stopped in the office. "Coach." He didn't look up until he was in the office and saw everyone standing there.
"Yeah, Jimin."Sorry Coach, I didn't know you were busy."No problem Jimin, hey can you take these three and show them around the complex? Pull Jin and Mike out of the weight room and get them warmed up a little, since they are in sweats they can do some drills."
"Yeah, Coach."Jimin, when I am finished, I will come out and you can tell me what your issue is."Yes, Coach."
The kid looked back down at the ground for a second. The three boys followed Jimin out the door and he was telling them where everything was then we couldn't hear them anymore. The principal looked at me again.
