Even though it was pouring I wanted to go out to play video games with my friends. I was trying to convince Yoongi to come but he kept saying that many strange people went to the gaming rooms.
"You're just overreacting and I almost know everyone there," I said. He glared at me and shook his head no.
I sighed and just let it go. I rather go have fun than take hours here to convince him just to go out with me.

I had made it to the gaming room soaking wet since my umbrella broke while I was trying to pry it open.
"My god Jimin. Why are you drenched?", Taehyung said rushing to me with a towel.
"Well, my umbrella broke."
Tae patted me dry with the towel and started dragging me once again. I was talkative but only when I got comfortable with you but Tae was a whole different type of confident.
"Meet Jeon. He's like the co-owner of this place and he's hella good with games," Tae said making me shake hands with him.
"Hi. I'm Park Jimin."
"How old are you?", Jeon asked. Oh well... that's a great first question to ask someone you just met.
"19"
"Sorry for asking. You just sound so mature."
I stood awkwardly there and smiled kindly. I don't know he was kind of giving this scary aroma although he looked pretty calm. Tae started talking to him and asking when the next game matches were. Usually, I would join since the game that was being hosted was based on luck more than skill; skill-based games make me dizzy but I do enjoy watching them.
"I'll be joining from now on but it will be less frequent. Especially with students having exams, they will have less time to come and play games. I can't host a game with one or three players," he said as he was clicking on his computer.
"I'm sure you'll take great care of the scheduling. Out of all managers, everyone says you are the greatest here," Tae said with the widest smile I have ever seen on his face.

The games had finished for today and Tae was not over-exaggerating when he said Jeon was a great manager. He was a huge jokester with the crowd and knew everyone. Jeon would even present the new members so they would feel welcoming, unlike this other manager called Obi who would literally just ignore the new members.
All that fun yet it was still pouring. I was last all because I wanted to get a sip of their new hot chocolate. It was worth it.
I peered out the door and just told myself to go for it.
Until someone grabbed my arm.
"You're going to get sick if you keep running in the rain,"Jeon said. "I'll take you to your car."
I nodded and let him walk out first. He opened his clear umbrella which had small butterflies on them. I walked out with him and chuckled.
"Why are you chuckling? Do you think my umbrella doesn't fit me?"
"Well...", I said giving the umbrella another look.
It was actually my type of umbrella. The clear color and blue butterflies.
Jeon smiled and patted my head.
"You're such a kid," he says. Woah buddy, I am a grown man. Actually not really. Haven't had my first kiss, nor has anyone taken my virginity. The farthest I've gone is holding hands with some prick.
He took me to my car and told me to drive carefully.
"Thank you. Um what's your name? Sorry they only told me your family name."
"I only go by that name," he said and walked away with the pretty umbrella.
