"Taehyung, I know you have been busy but sometimes we need to hang out." I was leaving a voicemail on his phone...again. I haven't needed to go into work because they aren't needing any makeup lately. I just sit at home while the boys work on their new comebacks. 

They have a NOW3 album coming out soon and then another new album. They won't need me for a while longer, not until the photo shoots start. I hung up the phone and then sat it down on the armrest of the couch. I was laying on the couch as I was thinking about my life here. 

Maybe I should call Sora, I could use her personality right now. 

"Ren! I miss you baby! Hey, guess what I'm doing right now?!?!" She yelled as soon as she picked up. I smiled at her loud voice, I missed it. 

"I'm not sure, for all I know you could be standing outside my door." I chuckled. "No! But you never know. Actually I am buying my ticket to Korea right now and I was going to call you so I know what airport to use. Most of my house is already packed." She said. 

I told her the nearest airport and she booked her flight with my help. "So when are you coming?" I asked her. 

"Oh um tomorrow afternoon I leave to get on the plane so then I will be there the next day. I'm still trying to work out the time zones..." She trailed off. I giggled. 

"Just text me before you get off the plane, I don't care what time it is. I'll come to get you no matter what." I told her. "You better. So what's up? You had a reason for calling, didn't you?" She said to me. 

"Oh right, I just wanted to hear your voice. I've been sitting in my house all alone for about a week." I exaggerated. "What happened to your boyfriend?" She asked me. "He isn't my boyfriend." I mumbled out. 

"Right, sure. Okay what happened to your lover boy?" She asked once again. "BTS has been busy in the studio. They haven't needed a makeup artist in a while. Oh did you ever get those links and stuff I sent you? I have so many things to share with you. When you get here prepare to not get any sleep, I have so much to tell you." I told her and she laughed. 

"Okay, I'm going to start packing more, I'm putting you on speaker." She explained and then there was a lot of rustling around and then a bang. I laughed and I could hear her cursing. "Did you drop me?" I asked her and she scoffed. 

"Psh no. I don't...drop...things. You have no proof." She said. "I will when you come here and I see the big crack on you screen." I laughed at her. 

"Remind me to make it to the phone company before I leave..." She said. I could hear her placing things messily into the boxes and her cursing when the stuff doesn't fit. She curses too much. "I can't let you around the boys if you are going to curse like a sailor. Especially my special little seagull." I joked around with her. She then proceeded to spew out a long stream of curse words. 

"Well then." I commented. 

She giggled in the background and her giggle sounded like a mouse causing me to snort and laugh. 

"Shut up." I told her as she burst out laughing at my snort. 

"Anyways, I'm going to let you go. I've had enough Sora for the day. Love you! Good luck with your packing." I told her and hung up the phone. I placed it back down but then it beeped causing me to groan in laziness. 

"Eric?" I questioned out loud as I saw his texts. He wanted me to meet him at the arirang studio. I replied with a I will be there soon and went to go get ready.

"I'm here to see Eric Nam. My name is Ren Trelor." I told the lady in really bad Korean. She smiled sympathetically and told me in English that he was waiting for me upstairs in room 5-A. 

My face turned red and I thanked her. I walked cautiously up the stairs and looked for room 5-A. I found it after I would say a good five minutes and knocked on the door. He came to open the door and he hugged me as we went to go sit down. 

"Hey, I know it was kind of out of the blue to call you here. Were you in the middle of doing something?" He asked me and I shook my head no. 

"Unless you count laying on my couch doing nothing busy then yes I was extremely busy." I used a ton of sarcasm and he faked looking hurt. 

"That was a lot of sass I wasn't expecting from you." He said and I laughed at him. "So what's up?" I asked him. 

"Well. I want your opinion. So I've been doing ASC since it started, I think I should quit...what do you think?" He asked me. My eyes widened. 

"Huh? You want to just leave? I thought you liked working here. I mean I know you are wanting to work on your singing too. Is that what you really want to do though?" I asked him. He nodded and I smiled at him. "I say do it. It's risky but I would do it." I said to him and he smiled back at me. 

"You really think so?" He asked me. I nodded back. "Who is going to replace you? Do you have anyone in mind?" I asked him.

"Well, that's why I called you here. You already know English and the others can help you with Korean so I think it would really benefit you. I would love it if you replaced me." I stopped breathing. 

"Huh?" I managed to say. 

"Look I know you love your job you have right now but, this wouldn't be an every time thing, Jimin is taking my spot sort of and then you would come in as Jimin and Kevin would still be there. I think it would be very beneficial to the show to have you as a new face be on the show. At least think about it." He pleaded. 

"Why don't you have like Key or Amber do it? I'm sure they would love to." I tried to persuade him. 

"They are so busy and everyone already loves them. Just like I said think about it." He said to me and he was right, they are really well known. 

I do love my job but this wouldn't be an every time thing, they would only need me every now and then. 

"Eric, let me talk to my manager..."
