Taehyung looks at himself in the long dressing mirror, he was dressed in a blue checked shirt and black dress pants with a belt around his waist, his hair was left as they were, covering his forehead, he sighs
"this is it tae, your last chance to be of any help to your mom, maybe she will like you after that" he tells himself
With another sigh he grabs his phone and snaps a selfie and send it to his best friend and his only friend Jimin
Taetae
Do I look fine?
But instead of receiving a reply, he receives a call
Jiminie hyung calling
He receives the call
"hello hyung"
"taetae, you look amazing" comes his hyung's cheery voice
"thank you hyung" tae smiles on hearing his reply
"so at what time is the date" jimin asks excited
"Its not a date hyung, it's a meeting and yeah its at 6" taehyung says while checking the wall clock which was about to hit 5:00
"looks like someone is very eager to meet him for being ready an hour earlier" jimin teases
"no one is eager, it was my mom who told me to be ready by 5, looks like this huge ass restaurant is an hour drive from here and mom doesn't want me to disappoint him by showing up late" tae scoffs
"tae" comes jimins soothing voice
"hmmm"
"Look at things in a brighter way, what if he is the one, what if he could help you in ways you could only imagine" jimin says in a reassuring way
"Or he could be just like everyone else, rich arrogant and self-centered" taehyung says, his distaste for rich people dripping from each and every word
Jimin sighs "look tae, he is obviously rich, but don't make your own image of him, give him a chance to paint it for you, ok?"
"ok hyung"
"good and come meet me at the bar after your dinner"
"ok hyung"
"and keep what I said in mind and give him a chance, ok" jimin asks him again
" I'll try hyung, bye, its time to leave"
"ok bye tae tae, take care"
With that they hang up and taehyung goes downstairs where his mom scrutinizes his look and then gives him a nod of approval and waves towards the main door
"Your car is waiting, our driver will take you to the restaurant" his mother says without any emotion
Taehyung just nods and was about to walk when Jin comes out of nowhere and hugs him
"All the best baby bro" jin pinches his cheeks for which taehyung glares at him while jin just laughs and hugs him again
" and if anything goes wrong, call me, ok" he breaks the hug to look at his brother who gives his boxy smile and nods
" Bye hyung"
" Bye tae tae"
When taehyung reaches the threshold of his house. Comes his mother's voice
"And behave yourself, don't show your country boy behavior there"
Jin rolls his eyes and turns to retort his mother when taehyung speaks up
