TARGET.

"...and this is the key for the store room..." Youngjae continued, the bunch of keys jingling in his hand.

Yugyeom let out a yawn, leaning against the desk in the Electronics department. This is where he had been stationed to work.

Ever since they had gotten back from lunch, the six of them had started to walk Yugyeom around the store, telling him how everything worked. One by one, though, they made excuses to leave and go slack off somewhere else, which eventually left only Youngjae to help Yugyeom along.

Not really paying attention to Youngjae and his stupid keys, he glanced around, seeing one of the people he had met today - Jackson, if he's correct - talking to a customer in a nearby aisle.

"Listen, sir," Jackson was saying. "I don't know who told you that, but we do not sell anal beads in this store-"

"Yah, are you even listening to me?!"

Yugyeom jumped, startled by Youngjae's sudden outburst. He nodded quickly in response. "Yes I'm listening-"

"Then which key is this?" Youngjae asked, holding up a small brown key.

"Bathroom?" he replied, which was obviously the wrong answer since Youngjae just sighed.

"Why do I even have to do this?" Youngjae asked no one in particular. "I don't even work in this department, this should be Younghyun's job."

"Hey, Youngay, I need the key for the store room," a voice called out. Both Yugyeom and Youngjae turned to see Jinyoung coming their way.

"I told you to stop calling me that-"

"Just give me the damn keys."

"You're a bully," Youngjae said, frowning. "Catch."

Youngjae threw the keys, but they didn't land in Jinyoung's hands.

"Well shit."

They had landed in the vent of one of the air conditioning systems.

"Yes, ok Mark please stop touching my butt."

"I'm trying to make sure you don't fall, you idiot."

It's been about ten minutes since the keys got stuck. Youngjae had gotten a ladder so that they could retrieve them, and Jackson and Mark were currently on that ladder.

Jinyoung, Youngjae and Yugyeom, on the other hand, were watching safely from the floor.

"I can't reach them!" Jackson screeched, the keys just inches out of his reach.

"It's because your legs are too damn short. I told you to let me get them but no," Mark replied, shoving Jackson lightly and causing him to shriek as he nearly fell.

"Ew, there's a spider web up here!"

"Man up, you pussy."

"Does this happen often?" Yugyeom asked. It was only his first day and, on top of having first day jitters, he was confused as to how none of these people have lost their jobs yet.

"No," Jinyoung replied, his arms folded as he watched the two on the ladder. "Usually, we aren't allowed to have the keys."

"Jackson, I asked you to make sure I don't fall, not finger my butthole!" Mark was now the one on the ladder, reaching for the keys.

"See, now you know how it feels," Jackson replied.

"Hey, I'm back from my break- what the fuck."

The five boys craned their heads in the direction of the voice to find Younghyun - affectionately called YoungK by those who knew him well enough - staring up at the scene before him in both horror and confusion.

"How did you-" he started, but stopped. "You know what, I don't care. I don't get paid enough to have to deal with you guys." He then made his way behind the Electronics desk.

"I got them!" Mark shouted happily before throwing the keys down at Jinyoung. They didn't land in his hands this time, either, they just ended up hitting him in the head.

"Aish!" Jinyoung cursed as he picked up the keys before finally stomping off to the store room.

"Hey, who's this?" Younghyun questioned, pointing at Yugyeom as he leaned forward on the desk.

"You're new co-worker," Jackson said as Mark hopped off of the ladder.

"Oh," he responded. Then he looked Yugyeom straight in the eyes. "Quit while you're ahead, kid. This place is hell."

"E-excuse me?" Yugyeom said, somewhat intimidated and a bit scared by this guy's attitude.

"He's just trying to scare you," Youngjae said reassuringly, pushing Yugyeom closer towards Younghyun with a smile. "Ok, see ya!"

"Wait-" Yugyeom said, turning around to stop him. By the time he turned, though, everyone was gone; including Jackson, Mark and the ladder.

He sighed.

He hadn't even assisted his first customer, yet he was already so worn out.

In fact, all he had done so far was get dragged around by six weirdos that he just met. He applied for this job because he needed cash- I mean, because he wanted to help people, not because he wanted to be part of a circus.

He was frowning slightly, lost in thought before someone spoke up and pulled him back into reality.

"Pardon me, but do you work here?"

Finally, his first customer.
