To be your ONLY option (Namkook)

Teamed Up

I just started a small Namkook story "The artist and his muse" which is inspired by the album of Indigo. Please check it out if you are interested. ☺️

2021 (part 2)

The whipped cream was not fluffy enough, so he beat it for few more minutes with the electric beater. The red velvet cake was not spongy enough, the colour seemed to be a little faded. No, the cake needs to be replaced. The base has to have more vibrant red colour, it will be crumbled and used in the decoration too.

It's been 5 hours since Jungkook is struggling to complete the cake preparation, he woke up at 4 in the morning and it is 9:15 now. No matter whatever he does, the things he would do for Namjoon has to be perfect. Today is a special day, it's 12th day of the month of September!

After a series of disappointing reactions, finally he was satisfied with the outcome. It was a heart shaped red velvet cake decorated with white icing cream topped with the cake crumbles, there was no word carved on the cake. A dark shade of brown coloured formal shirt was gift wrapped too.

Looking at the clock, it was already 10 am, Jungkook took a quick shower and skipped the breakfast as he was in hurry. He picked up the grey coloured hoodie that he got as a gift from his boyfriend few days ago on his birthday. No, Namjoon has not showed up, he just keeps sending things to the apartment's address. Jungkook is kind of used to the lonely life now, he just gets frustrated at the elder who thinks to be punishing himself, but in reality, he is hurting Jungkook too.

He picked up his phone and dialled a number.
"Have you reached office yet?"
"Hey Jungkook! You know actually I'm taking a-"
"You aren't taking any leave today and going to office right now."
The person on the other side was almost dumbfounded at the high pitched voice as he knew the speaker to be of kind and soft nature.

"Okay, okay! As you say, Sir!"
"Good, now tell me where excuse you are right now?"
"I'm actually in the office."
"You were lying to me?" The decibel increased again.
"Oh come on! I knew why you called, that's why I had to." The person kept whining.
"As you already know, I will be reaching there in half an hour. I will call you once I reach and you have to come downstairs to receive the parcel."
"Can I ever say no?"
"No!"

"When will you guys stop fighting?"
"We are not fighting. Ask your dumbhead friend why he is in hiding."
"As if he is going to tell me." A deep sigh could be heard over the phone.
"Not my problem, so I will call you in some time."
"Hey! What about you bring me a parcel sometime, you know, as a 'thank you' in return of my help."
"Your friend doesn't eat alone, I know that, so don't act smart, hyung."

"Here you go!" A big cardboard box containing the cake, the shirt in a gift wrapped box and a three tier bento box were placed in front of the desk of the cubicle that had a nameplate pasted saying 'Kim Namjoon, Senior Engineer'.
"Thanks Jackson!"
The recipient of the gifts hurriedly went towards the big glass window from where the view of the main gate was clear.

You look happy today, baby. Thanks for the gifts. I will apologise to you for all this, please just wait for some more time. I will come back to you before you even know it.

"Just get back home, dude! Your boyfriend keeps threatening me if I don't obey his orders." Jackson said as Namjoon sat back on his chair.
"He's the cutest human being in the whole world, stop saying non-sense."
"Then you haven't seen the angry bunny, I'm pretty sure he has some saved up for you when you get back home. Would you ever tell me what happened between you two?"
