Tuesday, 10am.


All the four of them left for work already. Yoongi to the pizza shop for deliveries and Hoseok to the restaurant he was working in. Since the pay for Namjoon's current job isn't as fancy as the other members, he went around searching for other jobs where he will be able to stay for some time and earn a little bit more than the previous job. Jungkook entered the same street and walked down the whole 20-meter stretch before he got to his workplace, Seven-Eleven. First day at work. He was supposed to do the morning shift but since Jungkook wasn't that familiarised with the work he was supposed to do there nor how to use the cashier machine, Taehyung was there already by the counter serving the customers that were queuing up. Taehyung was going to help him on his first day, knowing what to do and how to use the machine. Jungkook entered the shop and went in the counter, standing beside Taehyung, observing what Taehyung was doing and pressing on the screen.


Once the customers left and there were no one else inside the shop, Taehyung went to the storage room and took out a uniform, similar to what he was wearing and passed it to Jungkook," Here, change into this first. After that, I'll tell you what you're supposed to do here".


Jungkook went inside the storage room and closed the door as he changed into his uniform. He went back out to see Taehyung serving another customer. Jungkook looked closely to what Taehyung was pressing on the screen and slowly tried to understand how to use it. Once the customer left, Taehyung called him over and begun to teach him how to use the cashier. How and what to press when someone pays by cash or by card, when someone wants to top-up their transportation card or prepaid and other things he needed to know about the cashier. Taehyung gave him an example as well to make sure he was more clear how to use the cashier machine. A customer came at the exact time right after Jungkook finished learning how to use the cashier and Taehyung left it up to him to serve that customer.


The man came straight to the cashier, pointed to the cigarette shelf behind Jungkook and asked, "Can I have the red Marlboro?"


It took some time for Jungkook to scan through and find it but he couldn't. Taehyung then came beside him and quickly took out the box and gave it to Jungkook. Jungkook cheekily smiled before he scanned the item and then did all the things he learned from Taehyung and managed to successfully serve his first customer.


"Mmm, not bad. Just make sure you learn the different brands of cigarettes here. Next, this is the list of items we currently have in our shop..." Taehyung continued teaching him about the stocks in the shop and how and when to organise the things in the shop.


12pm.


By 12pm, Jungkook could adapt to his new work and was able to serve customers with no problems. As the customer subsides, Taehyung went to take two ramyun cups from the shelf and open it, putting hot water in the cups along with the seasonings. He then brought the two cups to the counter.


"I'll pay this for us today. Our lunch," Taehyung said, passing Jungkook one cup.



They waited for the noodles to be cooked before they begin digging in into each of their noodles, quickly, before another customer comes in. Good thing about this part of the city, there isn't much people living around here so there aren't as many customers compared to main cities like Seoul. After finishing their noodles, Jungkook threw them away in the trash bin.
