Four of Diamonds

 "Jimin, get up. Hyung made breakfast." Jin gently shook the young male who was asleep on the couch. Hoseok, Taehyung, and Jimin all crashed at Jin's apartment for the night, and it was already twelve noon. "Hyung... ugh, my head hurts, but I didn't drink any alcohol last night," Jimin complained as he got up from the couch.

"I agree, Jimin. Maybe it's because of the stress." Hoseok grunted as he came out of the bathroom. "Hyunggggg more syrup, please!" Taehyung requested, who was already eating at the table. Jin had made pancakes, waffles, and bacon for everyone.

"How was work last night, Hoseok?" Jin asked as he sat down and poured more maple syrup on Taehyung's pancakes. "A bunch of drunkards lost yesterday. There was this one drunkard who won." Hoseok said as he fed himself a small part of the pancake. "Is he named Min Yoongi?" Jimin asked as he chewed his waffle.

"Oh, how did you know Jimin?" Hoseok asked in a curious tone. "Well, Hyung, I was in the receptionist in the gambling area a month ago. Min Yoongi is a regular, but he always lost when he was sober." Jimin chuckled as he recalled the memories of having to console a crying and drunk Min Yoongi.

"How funny. Rich people really are weird." Taehyung commented as he shoved a mouthful of pancakes in his mouth. "You didn't have any problems in your area, right, Tae?" Jin remembered since Taehyung was assigned to the Gaming area. "Not really. Just a few gentlemen who threw the bowling balls into the wrong direction, but overall it's good." Taehyung answered with his mouth full. "Don't eat while your mouth is full, Tae! You might bite your tongue!" Jin scolded the younger male who was chewing his food.

"Have you read the tabloids, Jin Hyung?" Hoseok asked as he scrolled through his phone. "Why? What's in the tabloids?" Jin asked in an annoyed tone. He was busy enjoying his food. "Read this." Hoseok handed his phone to Jin. Jin grabbed Hoseok's phone, and he almost choked at the headline. "Korean Prince Virgin No More" Jin quickly scanned the article. Luckily, there was only a photo of Namjoon entering The House of Cards.

"Hyung, look at this article too. It's almost identical with the one Hoseok Hyung showed you but the photo here." Jimin said in a worried tone. Jin grabbed Jimin's phone, and to his surprise, he almost dropped Jimin's phone. "This is the lounge area. The picture has been taken from the inside of the club." Jin muttered.

"Hyung. This is a serious matter for the customers." Hoseok whispered. "I'll call The Boss," Jin announced to his friends and quickly grabbed his phone. His fingers were shaking as he pressed the dial button. Seokjin put the phone near his ear, and after a few rings, he heard a very familiar voice.

Jin put the phone on the loudspeaker, and everyone waited anxiously. "Yes, Jin? Is something wrong?" The Boss asked Jin. "We have a snitch. He sold us out to the media. He has a photo of the lobby." Jin panicked. "Calm down, Seokjin. What do you mean?" The Boss asked in a worried tone. "It's because of the tabloids. They have a picture of the lobby area, and the picture was taken from the inside!" Jin exclaimed.

"That is quite of a problem since some of our customers want their identity to be kept as a secret." Seokjin could clearly hear the distressed voice of The Boss. "What do we do now, boss?" Jimin asked. "My Queens, please tighten the security over there and have the security guards inspect the staff and customers before leaving and entering the building. They should always be on the lookout for hidden cameras. I'll ask Mark Tuan to help install some CCTV cameras. Is this policy okay for you, my Queens?" The Boss said, giving all the Queens assurance.

"It's okay for all of us," Seokjin said. "Thank you. I must leave now. Goodbye, my Queens. Please stay safe." The Boss hung up the call.

"Never in my six years of working there have I experienced something so extreme like this," Seokjin said. "Hyung, I'll make some calls. Please inform the security and the rest of the staff about the changes." Hoseok said, earning a nod from Jin.
