『 Bangtan Host Club, 09:21 P.M 』

At that very moment, I felt pathetic and miserable. Considering I never went to a host club before, shame got the best of me when I reached the luxurious-looking building, alone. How does it work? Do I have to ask for a specific host or pick one among a bunch of ridiculously handsome men? That kind of place was not my cup of tea yet here I was, scanning the facade with apprehension. I glanced at my clothes, wondered whether they would let me in or not. I was a foreigner after all, and not so pretty according to Korean beauty standards. Were they going to be as welcoming to me as they were to other costumers? I started to panick.

Suddenly, the wooden front door opened as two persons exited the bar. One of them was a woman. In her thirties perhaps, still young and very drunk. Next to her, a tall and handsome pink-haired guy was struggling to keep her on her feet, helping her outside. The woman was mumbling unintelligible words whereas the boy's gaze met mine. He lightly smiled before focusing back on the drunken woman.

I blushed at the thought of meeting men as beautiful as him inside the club. I groaned in frustration. How the hell can I face men like him? Not only was I definitely unattractive, I didn't make an effort to look decent with a nice outfit. I was pretty sure other customers were wearing dresses and suits. And here I was with an oversized sweater and some jeans. At least, I had an expensive—had to mention it—pair of sneakers on.

"Good evening miss, are you here for the Bangtan Host Club?" a smooth voice echoed in my ears as someone spoke from behind

I nearly jumped out of surprise, turning around to meet a familiar pair of brown eyes. It was none other than the pink-haired man from earlier, the one who had to walk the drunken lady. He showed off his with teeth as I simply shrugged, growing nervous at the only sight of him.

"I—I don't know yet."

He nodded. "I'll let you think then. Know that I'd be glad to meet you inside miss, you're really pretty."

He's trying to lure me in, I thought, yet his words made my heart flutter.

"If you come in, ask for Jimin." He licked his plump lips in a seductive manner. "I'm Jimin."

And just like that, he disappeared into the enormous building. Jimin was dropdead gorgeous, causing me to wonder if his coworkers were as attractive as him. Quickly enough, curiosity had remplaced apprehension. I let out a loud sigh before walking to the front door. Feeling brave for the first time since I've left home earlier, I pushed it open and entered the Bangtan Host Club.
