THE SILENT OCTOPUS | Park Jimin FF

Part 7 (Fuck my Fate!)

I glanced back and saw a woman approaching towards me. By the ID card hanging around her neck, I assumed she's one of the staff members here.

"Miss Y/N, Mr. Park wants to meet you personally". She spoke.

OH NO, I'M SCREWED! There's no way I'm meeting that guy. I'm almost certain he's calling me to get absolute revenge for what happened a few weeks ago. What if he calls me in and suddenly chokes me? Even worse, rips my abdomen apart like the serial killers in a movie and sells my organs to smugglers? I can't die at this young  age, I'm only 21. I have my whole life ahead of me.

"Ah, actually, Miss, I'm in a hurry. My mom is admitted to the hospital. She has a myocardial infarction". I lied, flashing a fake smile at her. "Mom, forgive me for this at least." I muttered to myself.

"Oh, okay, Ma'am. But Mr. Park said it was necessary," she replied.

"Don't worry, I'll see him around later. But I need to go and check up on my mom. Tata!" I said, bolting out of the building and heading to the parking lot.

As I reached the parking lot, I saw Jungkook and Sohee staring at me with disbelief, their hands on their hips.

"What took you so long?" Jungkook asked, clearly annoyed.

"Guys, I need to tell you something very important". I said, trying to catch my breath.

"What now?" Sohee asked.

"The guy who hit me with his car a few weeks ago is none other than Park Jimin. I didn't know he's a famous actor and the CEO of Korea's biggest entertainment company. Even worse, I threw my sandal at him after losing my temper". I confessed, my voice tinged with anxiety.

Jungkook and Sohee exchanged looks as if communicating telepathically. Then, unexpectedly, they burst into uncontrollable laughter, clutching their stomachs. With friends like these, who needs enemies?

"Did I say something ridiculous?" I asked, irritation creeping into my voice.

"Oh God, Y/N-" Jungkook hiccuped between laughs, then continued laughing.

"I can see an enemies-to-lovers story coming". Sohee said, still laughing loudly."

"Guys, please. This is serious. He even sent one of the staff members to call me a few minutes ago. I told her my mom is hospitalized and I need to meet her as soon as possible". I explained, fidgeting nervously.

Hearing this, they both laughed even harder. I never wanted to slit someone's throat so badly.

"Y/N, you know what's even funnier?" Sohee asked, trying to suppress her laughter."

"What?" I questioned, holding my waist with both hands.

"In your audition form, your mother's name was listed as Late Hwang Myungsoon. Which means Jimin is aware that your mom is dead." With that, Sohee and Jungkook burst into laughter again, leaving me wide-eyed.

WHAT DID SHE SAY? IN MY AUDITION FORM - LATE HWANG MYUNGSOON....DAMN, I'M REALLY IN TROUBLE NOW.

I stared at them, my heart racing. "What am I going to do? I can't face him now! He probably thinks I'm the world's biggest liar."

Jungkook wiped a tear from his eye, still chuckling. "You have to admit, this is kind of hilarious."

"Hilarious?" I echoed, feeling the panic rising. 

Sohee took a deep breath, trying to calm down. "Okay, okay. Maybe we can think of a way to smooth things over. But first, let's get you out of here before Mr. Park sends a search party".
