JIMIN

"I am sorry sir, Mr. Wilson is in the meeting," Arthur answered his phone.

"Okay, I'll call later." And he hung up.

"Hello, I am dying of hunger," Kai was now in his pajamas after taking a long shower.

I put down and phone and walked towards the kitchen, "I'll serve lunch, looks like Jin's not gonna join us anytime soon."

Kai smiled at me apologetically, "don't worry I'll eat everything by myself and there will be nothing left for your hungry fiancé."

He settled on the dining table while I put the steak and the sticky rice on the plates, while he was humming something looking around, studying the place.

"So you paint," he pointed at one of the art pieces hanging on the wall.

"Yes, but none of them is mine. I bought it from the charity events."

"Here," I put the plates on the table, "you start, I'll get the wine," he nodded picking up his fork and knife.

We talked through the lunch, more like Kai telling me about his trip to Hawaii and how he met a lot of people there. I was just listening to him, nothing interesting happens with me anyway.

We cleared the table and Kai insisted on doing the dishes and pushed me out to take a nap, which I really need right now.

I stepped into my room, it was a little warm so I opened the windows and the cool breeze of spring hit my face, brushing away my hair. I felt more dizzy so I decided to slip under my comfortable duvet and closed my eyes, drifting off.

JIN

After dropping Mr and Mrs Park, Arthur drived us home. The drive was as silent as it can get, to the point I can hear the air conditioner's sound.

"Arthur, do you drive Jimin to work everyday?"

"Sir, Mr Kim doesn't like to be accompanied. He drives himself to work and other places."

It was my cue to panic, "tell me you at least follow him around."

He nodded through the rearview mirror, "he still get pissed though whenever he sees me following him. He once threw his drink at me and this other time he punched me in front of hundreds of people in a restaurant. I almost got arrested."

This earned a smile from me, "I am sorry you have to go through it, I am just concern about his safety."

"I understand sir."

Rest of the drive went by Arthur filling me with all the details of Jimin's visit to different places.

"We are here sir," And I was home. My legs felt heavier.

I walked out of the car and towards the main gate, I put the code and the gate opened. As, I advanced towards the hall my nostrils were hit by a mouthwatering smell of food.

"Do you think the cupcakes are well baked?" Kai was holding a tray wearing an apron and oven mitts, "should I do the toothpick test?"

"I am sure they are fine Kai, just let them cool down," Jimin came out of the kitchen covered in flour and chocolate maybe, looking like a teenager, carefree and beautiful as always. His hair sticking on his forehead due to sweat and his hands covered in cookie dough.
