Brandy {Small Hiatus}

My Job

When Kai left, Taemin went to serve some other customers, they were happy to see him as they came back from a long journey.
He glanced at "Jonghyun", he had heard his name when he walked in. Jonghyun had a map laying stretched out in front of him, it seemed like it was a map from this area.

He glanced at him for the third time. Jonghyun was still sipping his Whiskey, which surprised Taemin because usually, the customers drink really fast. It's also no exception that he goes home very late because some customers just don't go away and because they are too drunk.

Taemin thought Jonghyun was a mysterious and dangerous man. He had this air surrounding him. What kind of job would that man do, for him to afford such expensive Whiskey? He always served the best beverages, the best quality, so they were very expensive. People from far would travel to his bar only for his beverages.

Taemin also wanted to know what such a man did in this place. Was this a stop from his journey? Does he have a job here? Or does he has to visit someone? Or was he here for his famous beverages?

Taemin was lost in his thoughts, without noticing it he had walked to Jonghyun, maybe it was a fake name, maybe he was wanted. He jumped when he realised he had walked over to him, he quickly remained his composure. He saw a quick glance of a knife on Jonghyun's torso. 'Uhm, sir, would you like me to give you a new Whiskey?'

Jonghyun looked up, Taemin gulped when he saw his eyes, they looked furious, like there was a raging fire in him. 'Yes please.'

Taemin took his glass and walked back to his bar. He shuddered, that man is really scary. He wondered what Kai thought of him.

He served the glass and decided to ask him, 'Are you here for a stop?' Jonghyun looked up again, and smiled. Taemin froze. The door opened, the bell rung. Taemin begged that it weren't more customers, the ones who were already in his bar were loud and drunk enough.

More customers, Taemin sighed. He excused himself, silently cursing his customers because he couldn't hear Jonghyun's answer.

After every customer was served, he glanced at Jonghyun. He heard a uhhum, meaning he wanted to pay. He walked over again and took the money.

'I'm here for my job.' Jonghyun answered his question. He had a beautiful voice, it sounded like someone who did singing for living. Taemin smiled and let him out. He looked at the already-drunk-customers and decided to let them out too.

It was already past midnight when Taemin closed his bar. He was exhausted and he wanted to go home.
