Man in Dreams

Unexpected Love

Maya was desperately trying to fend off the drunken man who was harassing her. He yanked her hair roughly, snarling, "Stop struggling or it will get worse." His breath reeked of alcohol as he leaned in to kiss her. Tears streamed down Maya's face as she screamed, "Leave me!" With a surge of adrenaline, she managed to twist free from his grasp and stumbled backward.

She collided with another figure—a tall, imposing man with a deadly stare fixed on her assailant. The man grabbed the drunken aggressor and, with a swift motion, smashed his face with a powerful punch. "Who the hell dares to touch my girl?" he growled. The aggressor crumpled to the ground, dazed and defeated.

The rescuer turned to Maya, his expression softening as he gently touched her face and wiped away her tears. "Are you okay?" he asked, his voice filled with concern.

Maya looked up through her tear-blurred vision and recognized him. "Yoongi," she breathed, relief flooding her. She threw her arms around him, hugging him tightly. "Thank you so much, it means a lot to me," she whispered, her voice shaking with emotion. "You're literally a god-sent angel."

Yoongi stroked her hair, comforting her. "I'm here," he murmured, his presence reassuring.

He held her hand and guided her to a nearby bench. They sat down, and Maya leaned her head on his shoulder, sobbing quietly. Yoongi could feel her tears soaking into his shirt. He gently lifted her face, looking straight into her eyes. "You are my girl, and you need to be bold and strong, okay?" he said, his voice firm yet caring.

Maya's heart pounded as if struck by Cupid's arrow. "Are you saying I am your girl?" she asked, her voice trembling with hope and disbelief.

"Yes," Yoongi confirmed, a tender smile playing on his lips. "Can you be my girlfriend?"

Suddenly, Yoongi jolted awake, his eyes snapping open. "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" he yelled, looking around frantically to see who had disrupted his dream. He groaned, rubbing his eyes in frustration. It had all been a dream—a beautiful, intense dream.

Joe's urgent tone cut through the air, breaking the tranquility of the moment. "I'm sorry, buddy, but we need to leave immediately. We're already running late, and today, we're introducing our boys to the world," he declared, a sense of urgency evident in his voice.

Yoongi let out a long breath, trying to shake off the remnants of his sweet dreams. "Never dare to do that again when I'm having sweet dreams," he warned, half-jokingly.

Joe, looking genuinely confused, retorted, "How would I know if they're sweet dreams, huh?" before playfully tapping Suga on the back.

As everyone got ready, Suga turned to Hobi, asking if he had invited everyone and subtly inquiring about someone's attendance without directly mentioning her.

Suddenly, Maya playfully covered Yoongi's eyes from behind. "Guess who?" she teased, expecting it to be Hobi.

Feeling her touch in the real world for the first time, Yoongi's heart raced in an unfamiliar way. Gently removing her hands, he turned to her with a smile. "My girlfriend," he declared, surprise and affection mingling in his tone. Maya's eyes widened in disbelief, caught off guard by his words.

At that moment, Hobi, who was standing nearby, burst into laughter upon seeing Maya's astonished expression beside Yoongi. He couldn't resist teasing her gently, "Looks like you've been caught, Maya!"

Maya blushed deeply, her cheeks turning crimson as she realized her playful gesture had led to this unexpected moment with Yoongi.

Jin, who had observed the entire exchange, stopped Yoongi in his tracks. "Your girlfriend since when?" he inquired, only to be met with Suga's trademark blink, a playful glint in his eyes "Of course hyung all are army's are our girlfriends".

Still reeling from the revelation, Maya slowly returned to reality, trying to process what had just happened. Part of her thought Suga must be joking, but she wished J-Hope well and embraced him warmly.

Namjoon gathered everyone's attention, reminding them of the significance of the day. "It's going to be a big day for all of us. We're completely formed, and we're going to be the best. Seven ordinary boys from Korea, let's make it happen!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with determination and excitement.

As the concert began, the crowd erupted into cheers, and the boys took to the stage with an energy that was electrifying. From the opening beats of "2 Cool 4 Skool" to the adrenaline-filled finale of "Jump," the 45-minute performance flew by in the blink of an eye, leaving the audience craving more

As the ARMYs were getting autographs and taking pictures with the boys, Maya felt a surge of happiness standing in the queue. It was like a dream come true.

When Suga spotted Maya in the line, he couldn't help but smile. "Oh, my girlfriend in the queue? That shouldn't happen when I'm around," he said, reaching out to hold her hand.

Maya blinked in surprise. "What are you saying, oppa? Girlfriend since when?"

Seeing her reaction, Suga giggled. "Just kidding. Don't worry, we're not supposed to have girlfriends; it's our rule." He playfully pinched her cheeks. "But we can hold our ARMY's hands while signing. Making eye contact with you is a bit difficult for me."

"Why?" Maya asked, confused.

"Nothing, just go. Don't make others wait," Suga replied, gently nudging her along.

Maya walked away, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts. She bowed politely and moved on to the next member. "Wow, Hobi! I’m so glad to meet you. It's like I'm dreaming. I'm your biggest fan since the day you were born!"

Hobi smiled warmly. "Oh, thank you, my girl," he said, playfully pinching her hand.

Maya's eyes filled with happy tears. "I’m literally proud to be your best friend. You rocked it, Bablu. I was waiting for this day, and it finally arrived. Mark my words, you will be a sunshine in everybody's heart," she said, her voice trembling with emotion.

Tears welled up in Hobi’s eyes as well, and he wiped hers gently. He knew how much they meant to each other but also understood the necessity of maintaining some distance in the future. "Thank you, but you will always be my sunshine that keeps glowing," he said, blowing a flying kiss.

As Maya left, a group of ARMYs suddenly surrounded her, eager to learn more about Hobi. "Girls, I just know him. He's my school friend, that's all," she said, trying to escape their inquisitive gazes.

Just then, her phone buzzed with a text from an unknown number. "You safe? I saw people blocking you."

"May I know who this is?" she replied.

"Your boyfriend," came the enigmatic response.

"Boyfriend?" Maya texted back, puzzled

"Yes, my ARMY girl. Can you answer me without asking further questions?"

"Yes, I am safe. They just wanted to know about Hobi. Please, can you now tell me who you are?"

"I already answered—your boyfriend," was the reply, leaving Maya even more bewildered and curious.
