Word count - 2086

Seungmin was a barely surviving college student.

He was in his fourth year, and it would be safe to say he was at a terrible point in his life, at rock bottom if you would. He could barely pay for his off campus apartment, was eating the cheapest foods he could find for most of his meals, typically cup noodles, and the mere thought of his piling student debt increased his blood pressure.

He never was close to his parents and so when he left for college, the communication between him and them was minimal. They also strongly believed in self-subsistence, so they mostly left him to fend for himself.

His part time job could only pay for so much after his parents decided he was old enough to be independent towards the end of his second year. For a while, his savings were able to assist a lot, but it eventually ran out.

Currently, he was at one of his part time jobs. He worked as a waiter during weekends at a bar. He worked from nine in the evening to three in the morning. It meant less sleep than needed, but the occasional hefty tips he was given by customers and the pay he received, it was a good deal for him.

Things were not easy but he was coping, and at the least surviving.

It was around twelve on a Saturday night. The bar was filled to the brim and Seungmin was already tired from the non stop movements he had been doing as he served drinks to multiple tables.

Although the bar was frequented by a lot of people, it was considered more of a high end bar, with a lot of rich and influential people visiting every night.

His boss always made sure to remind them to be on their best behaviors around the customers. Not only were they always right, but some were business partners. Seungmin's boss never specified what kind of partners, but the boy was almost entirely sure it had to do with shady and illegal dealings.

“You've gotta deliver these to table five in the VIP section. Might have to serve them too if they want.” Seungmin's coworker, Jeongin said as he pushed forward a tray of drinks and cups, and a small ice bucket filled with bottled drinks.

“Alright, at least my legs would get a few minutes of rest.” Seungmin laughs before taking the orders and proceeding towards the table.

Upon arrival, there were three men at the table, dressed up in expensive looking outfits, similar to suits, as though they had just got off work. Except it was literally midnight.

“Good evening, your drinks gentlemen.” Seungmin said as he placed the tray and bucket on the table. “Shall I serve them for you?” To which he began to serve the drinks after one of the men nodded in reply, showcasing a few tricks he learned to entertain the customers.

As he was about to leave the area, one of the men stopped him. Telling him to have a seat and serve the drinks to them.

Seungmin flinches when he feels a hand rest on his thigh, looking to his side as he sees one of the men, an older looking man with a well build, resting his hand on his thigh. The man was facing his friends, deep in  inconversations and nonchalant about this hand that rested on the boy's body.

Another thing their boss made them do was wear slightly revealing clothes, claiming that even if they were not up for sale like the prostitutes, they could still serve as eye candy.
