The Internship || Kim Namjoon Fanfiction

The Internship || Chapter 5: The Maknae Line

As soon as J-hope went out and spoke a few words in Korean, V ran in the speed of light to my office as if his life depended on it.

I heard the clear laugh of Jin and J-hope that i already knew from before and i smiled myself from his cute akwardness when he noticed that i noticed that he ran to get in.

He closed the door and looked at me with a confused face. 'Should i say something?' He must have thought to himself because his mouth was open and moved all the time.
I decided to talk first. You know we don't have all day long... i've got 2 more members and they have reharsels.

"Hey V! Come sit." I said pointing at the chair in front of me.
He put on his squre smile and came to his seat.
"Paper?" He asked in english and raising his hand.
"Yes." I answered and taking it from him.

I quickly scanned the paper to see a clean racord. Everything seemed to be in order.
"Let's talk a bit about yourself. I know V is not your real name, how do i pronounce your full name?" I asked. I truely never knew... i always knew it was tae-somthing but i didn't know how to say that somthing.

"Kim Taehyung" he said quickly. It was so fast i only heard 'kim'.
"Whoo whoo! That was fast! Slow down!" I said smiling.
"Kim tae-hyung." He said slightly slower. Now i understood.
"Tae.... h-hyung?" I asked with hassitition.
"Ya!" He nodded happily as if he was a dog waiting for me to give him a treat.

"Okay... well sorry but i have a hard time saying that so if you'll excuse me i'll call you V okay?" I asked. I truely didn't want to get his name wrong. Espacially in Korea, it may be offensive.

"Tae tae is okay." He said slowly with his cute broken English.
"Okay tae tae. Tell me about your family."
Now, since it's a long answer, he spoke in Korean and Choi started translating.
"I have a mom and dad. I am the eldest son that is why i'm Tae- Hyung. Hyung in Korean is a phrase used by males to refer to their older brother. You will hear us, the makaes say this to our hyungs: hobi hyung, suga hyung, rap mon hyung and Jin hyung."

"What is the phrase for an older female when a male refers her?" I asked Choi.
"Noona." He answred.
V had a confused look on his face. Oh silly him... he must have thought that i'm older that Choi.
"I am older than tae tae but only in a few months. Does is still make me his noona?" I asked him.
"Technically speaking, yes. But it depends on who you're talking to. I think Taehyung wouldn't call you noona if you are only a few months older... the gap is very small. Overall, you two are in the same age so you can call each other in your own names." He explained.
Wow the Korean culture is much more complicated that i thought.

"You old?" Tae finally spoke. I was enterntained from his broken english. But i found a chance to have my fun.
"Yes i'm 30." I answered and Choi looked at me with his brows raised but he then smiled when he understood what i was doing.
He repeated my age in Korean and tae tae's round wide eyes were priceless.

"You?" He pointed at me with such suprise, Choi and i couldn't help it and we started laughing.
"No I'm joking! I'm 22." I said already taking out my ID knowing he wouldn't believe me this time.
He took my ID and saw my year of birrh and was acually quite releved and happy at the same time. "You my age!" He was so happy.

"Yes i'm your age tae tae... now let's countinue the check." I said giggling and taking back my ID.
He was quite a healthy person, and very funny. So nice to be around him, i can forget all my worriess and pain and just enjoy life with him.

Alright, will you take off your shirt for a quick test of should i slide my hand in?" I looked at his dark green shirt that was extremly loose. It was at least 3 sizes bigger. But it suited him really well.

Choi said that he will take off his shirt and i was quite suprised. I was sure he wouldn't let me. Oh well, my win.

His tummy was so cute and adorable i wanted to poke it. But well you know... i can't. I chacked his heartbeats but they were slightly fast. Well, not slightly but acually very fast as if he ran a mile to get here. Strange...
