Hey there my name is Jade Min and up till about 3 days ago, I had a pretty average life. I lived in a modest apartment with my mom. I went to public school at the high school down the street and on the weekends I hung out with my four best girlfrien...
Jade's pov: I was so excited that I was practically dancing in my seat as the driver pulled up in to the familiar parking lot of my favorite Italian restaurant. I was excited because I had been dreaming of this place's stuffed mushrooms and spinach and cheese ravioli for months, plus I had rented the whole place out for us tonight, so we could have some privacy, and to be honest I was just happy that I could have the opportunity to show them around like this and share my history with them. Tonight I was going to be taking them to all my favorite hunts, and maybe just maybe they would get to see a glimpse of what my life in LA was like. Maybe once they understand my past it would help them understand me better. Anyway as soon as we pulled up to the restaurant I all but ran inside excitedly my brother and the other boys join in to. I smiled happily and inhaled the fresh scent as soon as we were inside and the boys all immediately began looking around at the cool interior while I immediately got us a table. (restaurant looks like this)

Once we were seated Manny (my favorite waiter) came over to greet us and get our orders. We quickly placed our orders, with me taking the lead as I was the only true native English speaker in our group. Manny smiled happily as he assured me he would take care of everything. He then quickly called our orders to the kitchen before smiling down at as we began to politely catch each other up on what has been going on since we last saw each other. I told him how cool living in Korea had been and how different it was from here but that it cool and that my brother and his members took good care of me, which he was relieved to hear. He politely greeted my brother and his friends then so I quickly introduced them to him and explained that Manny was a good friend of the family and that he had taken good care of me as I was growing up and that My mom and I often ate here and that Manny would always help us when we came. The guys all nodded politely and seemed more relaxed now that they understood our relationship and it was Manny and I knew each other.
Jade: ( in Korean) oh my bad guys this is Manny. He is an old friend of the family. My mom and I used to eat here a lot and Manny always took good care of us, so we have a very casual relationship. He is a good friend who practically saw me grow up. (Switch to English) Manny this is My brother Yoongi, and these are his friends... *I explained while glancing around at the guys happily, before introducing them each individually* this Jungkook, Jimin, Taehyung, Jhope, Jin, and Namjoon. *I said pointing to each guy and politely greeted them all with a small nod and a handshake, before turning back to me with a smile*
Manny: hey cool well it's nice to meet you guys *he greeted them with a friendly smile, Then glanced back at me* oh hey come check this out for a second. *he said lightly tapping me in a friendly gesture, so I nodded and quickly got up to join him, after quickly excusing myself despite the boys worried expressions* Don't worry I'll bring her right back I promise. *He told them before leaving me over to the corner of the room to stand in front of a large circular corner booth. Where he showed me a picture of my mom and me When I was younger eating together, Actually it was the whole collage of pictures of us eating together hanging on the wall there about the booth and just below them was a plaque Dedicating that particular booth to my moms memory. To be honest the sight of it had me slightly taken aback, but as I looked at all the photographs, their fond memories came rushing back to me and I was totally touched by the gesture so I found myself smiling bights you as quickly gave him friendly side hug and thanked him for the gesture. He hugged me back slightly and told me that it was only right. Of course I was completely aware of the boys watching the whole thing, and soon felt their disapproving stares so I quickly let go. But continued to admire the memorial that they had put up for us, but before I could really get my head around it, Manny and I were Soon joined by pops, the restaurants owner. His real name was said but we all call them pops because he was this elderly gentleman who just loved everybody so much she was practically like a stand and grandpa for most of my childhood. After greeting pops with a huge hug, a few tears escaping my eyes as quickly wiped them away attempting to hide them from him. I quickly thanked him for his kind gesture and for dedicating the booth and wall behind it to my mothers memory. I then quickly and excitedly dragged him over to meet the other guys too, and explained how Pops, was sort of like a stand in Grandfather for me growing up, and explain how The restaurant is actually dedicated that gift for my mother's memory as well as the little wall space behind it and covered in with pictures of her and me, so it was sort of like a mini museum of us through the ages, which seemed to interest the boys so after politely greeting Pops, they went to check out the booth and pictures while Pops, Manny and I continued to catch up.*
