Childhood Crush

3

An ambulance took our mom, she was rushed to the hospital, my heart beat racing i see my mom's pulse that keeps going down, sweat soaked my whole body.

me and my sister wait for our mom in front of the surgery room, my sister grabs onto my clothes, shivering. Its hard to act tough, when you're having a war with your soul, you keep biting your lower lips, and your feet couldnt stop moving.

The doctor came out, you looked at him worried, so did your sister
"Im truly sorry"
you fell down on your knees, while your sister hugging you, everything is so blur, the only thing you worried about was your sister's future, you couldnt care less about yours. you screamed hysterically

***
5 years has passed,

"Do you really have to go?" your sister pouted
"Thats okay, Eunha will took care of you while Im gone. You used to like her" Eunha is our neighbor, my closest friend since Taehyung left me
"But we dont get the chance to celebrate your 20th birthday"
"Hani-ah remember, you have to be good okay? I do this for you, for your future, your education. Dont waste it, you have to pursue your dreams—"
"What about your dreams?"
"I dont have time to think about it. Just study well, dont be a burden to Eunha" i kissed her forehead as I say goodbye and took the last bus. Im going to Seoul to work as a cleaning service, and took some part times.

"Hi! My name is Jiwon. Nice to meet you!" she shake my hand, her boxly angled smile reminds me of someone
"My name is JooHyun. Lee JooHyun" i shake her hand, she smiled warmly
"So this is going to be our bed, it attached to the wall, if you want to sleep you take it like this" she showed me around the studio
"If you ever need anything this is my number. Can I have yours?"
"Oh yeah— sure"

i took the bus to where i work, it took me around 3 hours to arrive there, and old fashion white building

"You must be JooHyun? Welcome to BigHit Ent. Im going to write your schedule. You're going to work at 7am to 6pm, and at weekdays you can start around 9am and finish at the same time. All you have to do is clean the floor in their dancing room, the mirror become so dirty often. You may want to work extra hard on that, and the floor must not be slippery, you have everything you need in the janitor room right on the left corner" She explains everything, i nodded. she gave me a key and a uniform
"You can start tomorrow"
"Thank you" I bowed

i walked not long from BigHit, until i stop at a flyer at the restaurant near BigHit, it says that they need a part time worker. I took the paper and went inside
"Excuse me? It says you need a part time worker. Can I apply?"
"Oh yeah— can you stay there for a bit, its busy here. I'll talk to you in a minute" The worker says while dealing with customers and calls from vendors, I sit outside.
Snow started to fall, how i wish Hani would see this, the lights from the building made the snow twinkling, i hold on to the cold

"Excuse me, miss?"
i slowly opened my eyes, there i see the worker looking at me worried with a hot chocolate in his hands
"Im sorry to keep you waiting, but we can start the interview now. do you need time to prepare?" he asks while offering me hot chocolate and sit with me
"ah- im fine" i said while cleaning up my hair, and drools. i look like a mess right now
"im sorry, but there's something on your hair"
"ah?" i rub my hair but nothing came of
"its right here" he hesitantly touches my hair and clean the dust from the bus earlier in my hair, he smiled
"My name is Jinyoung. Bae Jinyoung. You?"
"Im JooHyun, Lee JooHyun" i smiled as the interview began

"You can start the job tomorrow, all you need is to help me on the cashier, ill took care of everything. I'll be expecting to see you at 6pm until 1am is that fine to you?"
"That's awesome. thankyou"
"Where do you live?"
"Just somewhere you never know exists?"
"Touché. How did you get here?"
"By bus, it took 3 hours to go here"
"Ah really?" he looked at me worried
"Do you want a ride home?" he offers
"Ah thats okay. I have to get used to all of this. I'll wait for the bus here, thanks for the accompany" i smiled, he smiled back and leave. The bus has arrived and took me back home

I have arrived at BigHit right on time, 6 am. I cleaned up everything from their upper floor until the restroom, everything. I started to hear people comes in, footsteps. I looked at the pink haired boy taking of his coats

"Ah! You must be the new janitor? I never knew they have pretty girls as well. Nice to meet you" he smiled, did he just call me pretty? a pretty boy called me pretty? I looked at him, not realizing theres a tall figure looking at me

"Are you the new janitor?" i looked back in surprise, a beautiful handsome man standing right behind him, I hold back my mobs

"Ah yes, im sorry. I have to go now" i leave them all beautiful boys alone, and tidy up my stuff. While one beautiful handsome man still froze up, look at me curiously

"I dont know why, but there's a familiar presence with that girl, like i know her for so long, her eyes... is strangely familiar" he talks to his friends while slightly tilted his hand, resembling his confused

"Oh come on, its not like its your first time seeing a pretty girl. A janitor? You've got to be kidding me, Taehyung-ah" his friend slap his back, and he smiled with his special boxly angled smile, and walked away.
