62 - Jung Hoseok

Imagine you're balancing two trays of various hot and iced drinks; frantically rushing out of your local Starbucks in a desperate attempt to make it to the important 9 o'clock meeting on time. Just as you get your first breath of fresh air, your phone begins to ring.

"Shit, just my luck," you mutter hastily, rushing over to the nearest open bench to place one of the coffee trays down to answer the call.

"Y/N! Where are you? The meeting starts in five minutes. You can't be late," your boss barks demandingly.

"I'm sorry Mr. Min. I'll be there in just a few minutes. The coffee shop was packed and I only just got the drinks. I'm three minutes away so I ensure I will not be late, sir," you apologize.

"You better not be," he huffs before abruptly ending the call.

"I'm so dead," you groan before grabbing the tray of drinks you had just set down.

However, just as you spin around, you walk right into another body and both trays of drinks spill all over you and the stranger. Everything somehow happens in slow motion and you can only stare in shock as you watch the liquids stain your clothes in various shades of brown - with your blouse bearing the brunt of the damage. 

"Oh my stars, I am so sorry," you apologize profusely, practically on the verge of tears.

"Hey, hey, it's alright," a soothing voice cuts you off. "It was my fault, doll."

When you look up, you're met with the face of a handsome gentleman offering you a kind apologetic smile.

"I was actually being a little nosy and tried to get closer to you when I heard you mention someone by the name of Mr. Min," he confesses with a soft guilty chuckle. "Perhaps it's a coincidence, but I'm on my way to a pretty big meeting at my best friend's office a few minutes away from here. Any chance your boss is Min Yoongi?"

"You're friends with Mr. Min," you gasp, clearly dumbfounded. But you quickly school your features when you realize how that question might be interpreted. "I mean-"

"No, I get it, doll," the handsome man chuckles. "Yoongi can have quite the temper at times and he's always so stern in the work setting. Plus, the higher up you climb in an organization, the harder it is to make friends - not to mention the ethics of maintaining neutrality. But I met him long before he became the CEO of this company. I've actually been friends with him ever since we were in college so he's like a brother to me. I promise he's an actual human once you get to know him."

"It's nice that Mr. Min has a great supporting friend like you," you smile endearingly.

"I'd say we're both lucky to have each other - I think we balance each other out very well," the man in front of you agrees with a soft hum. "By the way, I never caught your name."

"I'm Y/N. Y/F/N."

"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Y/N. I'm Hoseok. Jung Hoseok," he introduces himself. "Granted, this wasn't the most ideal of situations. But it was still a pleasure nonetheless."

Suddenly everything clicks. Jung Hoseok is the very important guest Mr. Min had been simultaneously boasting and stressing over about this entire month. He had gone to extra lengths just to ensure this meeting went smoothly. 

At first, you had assumed that the Mr. Jung whom your boss always spoke so highly about was a potential client or an important shareholder. However, now that you've learned that Hoseok is practically Mr. Min's brother, everything is finally falling into place. 

"Likewise," you bow your head politely.

"Now, I believe we were both on our way to the meeting," Hoseok motions towards the general direction of the office building. You let out a soft audible gasp of horror when you check the time. You're now almost 10 minutes late for the meeting and you managed to spill the coffee.

"Oh my stars, I need to get the drinks otherwise Mr. Min is going to kill me."

"No, come with me, Y/N. Don't worry about the drinks. I have a spare dress shirt in my bag and you can change into it before the meeting. I'll make up the drinks to Yoongi another time. I'll explain to him it's my fault," Hoseok insists, automatically reaching out for your hand to tug you along in the direction of the office. Oddly enough, his hand feels just right wrapped around yours and you can't help but follow the handsome gentleman willingly.

Happy Monday, Dalgis! How'd y'all like this Hobi imagine? It honestly hit a little close to home for me because I'm entering the business world myself and I'm also missing Hobi extra these days 💜

I've kinda been flirting with the idea of changing my username (again, lol). It'll still be Enhypen-related but it reflects my final decision regarding my bias & bias wrecker. As some of you may know, I had a really hard time deciding who my bias and bias wrecker were up until recently. Hence why my username is Jungwon-related but my pfp is Heeseung. 

However, I have now officially declared that Heeseung is my (ult) bias and Jungwon is my bias wrecker. So with that, I've been thinking of changing my username to "strawberheecake". Plus, this new username will once again allow me to connect my reader-base name, "Dalgi" to my alias - just as I was once able to connect Dalgi to Dalgi_Jungoo. Let me know what you guys think! 

I hope you're all staying safe, happy, and healthy! I love you so much 💗

Until next week,
