"Here is your dorm. You should wake up at 6.00 am on weekdays and 7.00 am on weekends. You will get 30 minutes per week to use your mobile phones, not in dorms, you should report to the main room for that. Yall can rest now we will start training tomorrow morning. Understood?" commander Seokjin talked while watching everyone. As I thought he has the galaxies in his brown eyes. Those are shining when he is talking and smiling. Smile... There I trapped with him without a second thought. I never knew my military life will be this exciting but now I know I am going to enjoy it to my fullest.

Morning workout with commanders is not hard at all. I laugh at myself and then looked around to see others' faces. They are all worn out from the workout. As expected I am an athlete person not like the rest of the group. So this workout is not a hard thing. It is a normal workout I am doing daily in my practice.

Breakfast then basic training about the military law, then lunch, then again training. This is something I love to do while admiring a commander. He is admired by everyone not only me. When we got dorm after training, the commander was our dorm's biggest news. How he talked how he behave how he walk how his sunglasses suit him how broad his shoulders how friendly he is there is no end to their admiration. No wonder they are talking true. How can he be so perfect in everything? Can I be like him? That is the question I ask myself every minute I am watching him from distance. 

For a week this is the same routine for us. I am a silent person but I found a very loud friend from my group. His name is Hoseok, he is a street dancer, 3 years older than me, literary a ray of sunshine, talkative, and always dances while walking. I think he is the favorite trainer of the commander. Not surprised at all cause he is happy ball always shouting while training. Even the commander looks like a cold person I know the way he smiles when Hoseok does something funny, he admires Hoseok with his heart. Hoseok usually follows the commander everywhere, helps him to do cleaning after training, and shows his dance skills while cleaning. I wonder if I can be close to him what shall I show him? Probably my speed swings? Or fast fists? I am imagining things that will never come to reality.

"Jungkookah... Do me a favor? " Hoseok ran fast toward me while holding my shoulders.
"I am going to the dorm. What is it?" It was a hard day of training. I wanted to get dorm as fast as I can and then shower with warm water.
"Jin hyung has a slight fever. He is cleaning the classroom right now. Can you help him? " he asked.
"Jin hyung?" I asked him giving questionable look.
"oh.. commander Seokjin. I am going to the dorm since today is my cleaning day at the dorm. Can you help him a bit? It is not a big deal. I am worried because he is not well." Hoseok looked at me with pleading eyes.
"Yeah sure." I tunred my heels to go back to the training room. I peeked out the door before going to the training room. There he is sitting in the front row of chairs while holding his head. My heart got stings by looking at him like this. He checked his temperature using his hand and then sighed and got up from the chair. That is my turn to go in front of him and ask for the rest of the cleaning.
"Commander?" I called him from the door frame.
"Yes, Jungkook? Am I right?" he smiled at me not showing his sick face.
"Yes." I smiled at him. This is the first time I am talking to him like this.
"Why are you here? Any problem?" he asked me while turning to get the sweeper from the rack.
"I am here to help you to do the cleaning." I walked towards him and get the sweeper from his hand.
"You should sit there and get rest. It is not good to get tired while having a fever." he looked at me with big eyes while I am talking. I know he was surprised by my words.
"Hoseok told me," I replied to my words while going to the class end to start sweeping. I did not get a reply from the commander, he sat on the front chair and looked at me straightly.
