New to the city, she's starting a new life on her own. She's always been fearless and adventurous, but she never thought moving to the other side of the planet would flip her world upside down. She said she was ready for anything, but little did she...
"Do you reaaaaally have to go?" Jimin asks, grabbing both my shoulders just as I get up from tying my shoes up. His voice sounds a bit whiny, but as much as I want to stay I can't. I have my first day of work tomorrow and I can't be tired to meet my new boss. "Jimin, I wish I could stay but I told you already; tomorrow is a pretty big day for me. I have to make sure everything is perfect." I say as I give him a small peck on the cheek, softly stroking his blond curls. He huffs some annoyed Huhs but I know he understands. The other boys are also gathered at the entrance to send me away, which warms my heart. They're all waving small, except for Yoongi. He's just standing there, staring at me just like before. I don't think he stopped staring through the whole meal. It makes me shiver. Like he's trying to mind control me or something.
Tae joins Jimin closer to me and the door, handing me his mobile phone and he hugs me tightly. When he lets go of my body, he steps back and says "Tiny, can I have your number? So we can keep in touch. I want to see you again and you're not even gone yet.." He blushes, looking down at his feet fidgeting the tag of his long shirt. I feel my cheeks turn pink as well at his sweet request, and let out as I enter my digits in contacts: "Jimin already has my number, but I guess I can give it to you too, cute bear."
I look up horrified and I can't believe what I just said. All the boys scoff and laugh at the nickname I just gave their brother, and they all raise their hands into fists at the cringe words I used. "Omo, I think my hands will be stuck like this forever, Tess that was cringe as hell!" Seokjin says, turning to his brothers to show his curled fingers. They all enjoy that and laugh brightly. I feel a little embarrassed, but I enjoy their reactions. "If you guys continue, you'll get cringe nicknames just like Tae so be careful! I'm watching you all." I say as I point to each and every one of them, trying to be all serious.
It's 09:00PM, and Mr.Lee is waiting patiently for me to get into the car so he can drive me home. I sense his stare through the rearview mirror, but I don't say anything. As he lets me out in front of my house, he speaks for the first time of the entire car ride: "I'll be here at 08:30AM to pick you up tomorrow, Ms. Brown. Enjoy the rest of your evening." I thank him and off he goes, leaving me standing on my front porch, a little bit dazed.

I hear my phone ding just as I'm about to head into the shower. The message warms my heart, and I type a quick reply just as I step into the warm water. I smirk putting my phone back down on the counter. I can't wait to get out to read his reply.
