"What do you mean?"

You couldn't believe it. You couldn't.

"I'm sorry, [Y/N] ah..."

"Aniya... How can this be happening?" You​ mutter under you​r breath.

You​​ were​ just informed that the old lady who was your boss had a heart-attack yesterday, and was in the hospital now. "It's all my fault, isn't it? She had the heart attack after I left so if only I didn't-"

"[Y/N]-ah..." The boss' son looked at you in pity. "I don't think it's your fault... But I think you'd need to stop working here for a while... And even after she's released she may retire... So I think you should find somewhere else..."

~*~

And that leaves us where we are now.

You sighed, staring at the building before you. 'Well, so much for good Karma... I guess all of it went to last night's meeting with BTS' Taehyung...Why do I not regret-'

Anyway---

Let me explain what losing one job meant to you.
Because of your stubborn little ass and how you really, really didn't want a smaller apartment. Besides, the two jobs were really easy and they weren't busy, so you were​ more relaxed there, and although they didn't pay the best, you were fine with it. Losing one job would mean that you would be unable to pay the rent, forcing you to move. You didn't want that. And there was no way you could find another job on such a short notice, either.

Before you was the official BigHit company. After hearing about the news that morning, you got a call from her uncle, asking you to meet him at his office in the afternoon. You obviously knew he was about to provide for you or something, and you declined. However, he insisted. You even hung up, and what happened was you had like 27 missed calls within the next 5 minutes. It seems like you weren't​ the only stubborn one- So was your uncle.

So... Here you were.​

You stepped towards the front desk, nervously gripping her bag as you approached the lady, who looked at you with a polite smile. "Hello...I'm here to see PD-nim?"

A look of recognition flashed across her face before she smiled again. "I see, you must be [L/N] [Y/N], then?"

You nodded.

"Alright, PD-nim is expecting you at his office, you can find him here........"

And so, that was where you went.

~*~

At least that was where you thought you went.

So, tell me, why was it that you followed the directions to the toilet?

Because you had a shit sense of directions.

"I want to cry."

You groaned and ran your fingers through your hair in frustration, before you turned around and tried to make your way to your uncle's office again.

As the you walked around, you turned the corner and banged face first into a 'wall'. As she stumbled backwards just about to fall- The impact didn't really come.

A hand was gripping your arm and another was holding your waist. You could smell a faintly sweet cologne, subtle but rather unique and really calming. It smelt really nice.

"Whoa- Are you alright?"

Breaking you away from your thoughts was a voice you​'d always be able to recognize. In all his angelic, soft, mochi like glory- the one and only; Park Jimin.
