Beautifully Flawed

Friendship means that should you find yourself lost at sea, I will sail day and night to find you.

It had been a while since they all got together. Friendship is a gift especially if it is shared among people who like to see each other do well. So, going for over month without actually getting together was a long time for all of them.

Jimin had been juggling a lot of things and though overwhelming, he handled everything with grace. With the date of the launch only days away, Jimin was up and about most of the time – meetings filled most of his days and he had to go through numerous documents and approve final designs before the product launch. He was also actively involved in the remodelling of Jin’s restaurant. He was one to keep promises and just because work was overwhelming, he didn’t use that as an excuse to get out of helping Jin – even though Jin had insisted that they handle the remodelling after the product launch.

Jin, feeling inspired after the dinner at Jimin's, had come up with a whole new idea and theme for his restaurant, Love Blossoms; so he had closed up shop for renovations. The space he wanted to create would be out of this world and be a place that would be able to “bring the spark back into love,” he had said. It would be a perfect date spot for all lovers in all of Seoul. It would also be the go to place for all the sappy romantic moments – anniversaries, wedding receptions, surprise engagements and all that mush. So two visionary minds got together working tirelessly to bring a concept alive.

Yoongi and Namjoon on the other hand had settled well into their business partnership and were now working on their first production. They didn't need to do much to get companies to want to work with them, their reputations in the industry preceded them. The moment they announced their partnership, investors had come flocking in and entertainment agencies had sought them out.

Namjoon had found a bigger and more spacious studio space not so far away from the restaurant and it had worked out well for all of them. There was always a lunch spot around the corner – his boyfriend’s restaurant and he got to see the love of his life whenever he wanted. They juggled both working and setting up their office space with Yoongi in charge of the equipment and Namjoon, the administrative side of things – managing both the clients and with the help Jin and Jimin, the interior decor and overall staging. After all, it is all in the aesthetics.

Hobi and Tae were stuck to each other like white on rice. They did everything together. Hobi had been busy preparing a boy band for their debut. Being the perfectionist, they had to work double time. The choreographies had to be perfect. He had a name to uphold so substandard wasn't going cut it. The members of the boyband had a love-hate relationship with him. They hated how hard he worked them but loved him the same because he was good at what he did and they gave credit where it was due.

Tae knew how exhausting this would be so he had been there to support his now boyfriend. Things on Tae's end weren't as hectic. I mean, fashion week was months away but this didn't mean he lazed in his responsibilities at work. So if Tae wasn't at work, he was hanging out with Hobi at his dance studio or they were on a date somewhere in the city. Half of the time he wasn't at home.

Jungkook on the other hand put his photography skills to good use. Every evening after work, he rushed out of the door disappearing into the city. The best pictures were captured at sunset; when the golden sun ray kissed the earth goodnight. He had had to go out early some mornings just before the sunrise and around the city taking pictures that would later be blown up and hung on the walls of both the restaurant and the production studio.
