Chance

When I thought about the amusement park, the first thing that came into my mind was to make business cards; to tell people about my restaurant. If I'm going to advertise, I'm going to be forced to allow men to come into my restaurant, which I'm not quite sure if I was ready. . .

No, I had to start now! My goal depended on it. 

It seemed too early for me to be doing this. What if I puked on the costumer's food?

I got to start now, or I would never reach $100,000. 

I printed out a stack of fliers and placed it into my mini pink bag. I also prepared a batch of croissants and macaroons in a medium size basket, now on the dining table.

My favorites that will soon become their favorites.

I clenched onto my necklace. Father, I might just prove my mother wrong.  

I wore a sleeveless white, short dress with pink polka dots on it and pink toe closed flats with straps. I made sure my ponytail wasn't frizzy before I slipped on a straw hat before I left my room, taking my bag with me. 

I walked down the stairs and grabbed the basket of french delicacies. I checked the kitchen to make sure that everything was off and locked. We all agreed to leave in the afternoon and the time now was 11:45 am. Seemed too early to get ready, but I couldn't help it. I was anticipating to go to the amusement park when Yoongi gave me a full description of it.  

I used the time to check my bags if I were to be missing anything that I needed for the amusement park. Just then the doorbell rang the same melody as always. 

"Hey, Felicia! Ready to go?" Namjoon greeted me from the door. I tilted my head to the left to see the rest of his friends and a large black car on my driveway. There were other unfamiliar people that I saw which made me nervous since they were men. 

"I- Uh, yes. . ." I looked on the inside of my house to grab my things. The basket of food which I so couldn't forget. I also grabbed my pink bag and wore it on my back. I closed the door and I felt the eyes of everyone staring at me, while I locked the door with my keys. I turned back and it was Jin who approached me. 

"Come sit with me in the car," He said grabbing my hand. No. I'm not ready for this. He was holding my hand. His hand was so soft and warm. . . that was the only thing on my mind, ignoring the bursting chats that came in. 

"Hey! I was about to ask!" I heard Taehyung called out.

"I bet she has food in there. . ." Jungkook stared at the basket. 

"I'll sit next to her as well," Jimin said. 

"Guys, stop arguing and let's get in!" Yoongi said, going in first, following by Namjoon, and Taehyung. I took a look at Hoseok's face which he looked kinda bummed. Jin released my hand and my moment of Cinderella was over. I would never forget that moment. 

"After you, Felicia," Jin said to me, smiling. I hiccuped first and made my way to the van slowly. Jungkook was next to me and I could feel his tug against my basket. 

"Here, let me hold it for you," Jungkook said. I glanced up at him and gave him the basket. 

"Alright!" I heard his cheered quietly. I guess he liked to hold things.

I realized the large space in the car and how there were only men in it. I stopped my tracks and thought twice about my future actions. I either might faint or vomit the whole way to the amusement park. 

"If you want, you can sit in the passenger's seat," Jimin suggested, "I think you might feel better." 

That was a brilliant idea as I nodded my head to him. "O-okay. Thank you. . ." I made my way to passenger's door and opened it. A man was in the driver's seat when he glanced at me with a smile. "Hey, welcome." 

"H-hello. . ." I could tell that he was way older than me. I carefully sat on the seat and pulled onto the seat belt. I heard so much chattering already. Jin was the last to enter the car and he turned on the engine. "Let's go!" 

Cheers were the response, but I had a feeling that Hoseok wasn't cheering at all. 

O~~~~~~~~O

The giant rides with so many enlightening colors excited me the most when we passed by them. I heard the members "ooing" in excitement as well. The driver was able to find a parking spot from such a far distance. So many cars were parked in the amusement park, even on the sides of the grass and the roads were filled. It almost took about 20 minutes at the least.

"Ok, guys, we're here." The members were fast enough to get out of their seats before I could even do so. I unbuckled my seatbelt and before I could reach the handle, someone opened it for me. Jin.

"Thank you." I smiled at him while hoping out of the car. I knew I was missing something when I noticed my hands were supposed to be carrying something. I instantly remember Jungkook wanted to hold my basket for me. 

"My basket. . ." I spotted Jungkook eating a chocolate croissant with bright eyes. Oh, please don't tell me he-

I wanted to scream at him. That took the time to make those! And now. . . 

"What's wrong, Felicia?"

I looked up at Jin who asked. 

"N-nothing."

Jin with his handsome face remove my frustrations away. Jungkook was off the hook for now. 

O~~~~~~~O

I stood behind the group in the long multiple lines. I didn't want to get too close for my own sake. I even got a couple of bags just in case. Good thing there were some women behind me. But there were so many men here! The sun was out, burning away my confidence. I adjusted my straw hat from the heat that was pelting the back of my neck. 

We finally got something that seemed to be a yellow paper bracelet. Yoongi explained to me that the bracelets were for getting into rides. That made sense. I heard the group talking amongst themselves about the rides and which one went super fast. 

Even from this loud and obnoxious environment, Hoseok caught my attention quick when I noticed the same signs he did before. Was he not a fan of these? I liked seeing his smile, this wasn't like him at all, I think. While we were walking, I removed my backpack and pulled out some fliers. 

I poked his shoulder, just enough to get his attention without using my voice. He suddenly looked at me and what it seemed like he tried to smile. 

"W-would you. . . . i-if you like. . ." I let the fliers in my hand did the rest of the talking, presenting them to Hoseok. He looked at them with a different smile this time. 

"Sure! I'll help! Better than riding. . ." 

"T-thank you. . . Sorry. . ." 

"No! It's fine!" He grabbed a couple of fliers from my hand and literally began immediately. I decided to follow him while I gave out fliers to the women that passed by. By goal was to give out every flier by today. 

"Hey, we'll help too!" I heard Jin said which caught the rest of group's attention. Namjoon grabbed a couple from my hands as well as the others. 

"We can do this first, no problem," Yoongi said staring at the fliers. I was grateful for their help, little did I know, it caused so much attention from their. . . fans. . .
