I finally reach the doors to the building Mr. Young wrote down. When I glance around, I notice that this is one of the places that I have been taken to by the group I am asking for help from. Suddenly my nervousness eases, so I quickly knock on the door.
Before the door opens, my nervousness picks back up because I have no idea who will open the door. After a couple seconds, the door opens and there is a young girl there. She kinda looks familiar, but it has been awhile since I have been here.
The girl, who only goes up to my chest, looks up at me with dark brown eyes. Her black hair reaches her waist. She has on a mostly white dress, but it does have some black on it. And her feet are bare.
She gives me a large smile before asking in a shy, sweet tone, "What do you need?"
"I was told that my friends are here," I tell her. She looks at me in confusion. I give her a small smile. "A group of seven boys."
She nods her head and quietly says, "I know where they're at." Quickly, she grabs my hand and pulls me inside. Before I can get too far from the door, I close it. After that, she starts pulling me down the hallway.
Only a few seconds later, I am pulled into an open room. On the left side of the room, there is a couch with a coffee table in front of it. Then around the table, there are also a few other chairs to sit in. On the other side of the room, there is a desk, like the ones someone would find in a hotel. Behind the desk is a lady that looks somewhat like the girl that is dragging me.
When the lady looks up, she looks quite shocked. "Elizabeth," the lady says. The girl silently looks up at the lady. "What are you doing with this stranger?"
Once I remember that I haven't bowed yet, I quickly do so. The lady looks even more shocked when I do.
When I stand up straight, I say, "Mr. Young told me that this is the place I would find my friends. I need to ask them a question." The lady looks at me with a questioning look. "The group of seven," I tell her.
She pauses for a second, before she says, "Please stay right here. I will be back."
I nod to her and she quickly gets up. Before I can say or do anything else, she leaves the room.After a few minutes pass, the lady comes back into the room. She seems quite shocked that I am standing in the same spot she left me in. This whole time she has been gone, the young girl had been mostly standing and looking at me, while I looked back at her.
"I'm sorry it took so long," the lady tells me.
"No, no it's fine," I quickly tell her.
The lady nods once then looks at the little girl. "Elizabeth, would you please take this young lady to her friends?" the lady asks the girl.
The child nods before, grabbing my hand and leading me to the other side of the room. She silently opens the door and leads me through. Before I can close the door, it closes on its own.
Not very long passes before we reach another door that the girl opens. Once she enters this room, the girl quickly releases my arm and runs in. After I walk in, the door closes behind me. And I hear the little girl's voice say, "Hello Namjoon-oppa."
When I glance up, there is one of the group of seven. "Hello Elizabeth," Namjoon says before he even notices me. "What brings you here?"
Elizabeth quickly looks in my direction. Namjoon silently follows her lead and his dark brown eyes fall on me. I give him a small smile while he looks to be in shock.
"What brings you here?" he asks me kindly.
"I have a favor to ask," I tell him quickly.
He looks at me in worry before he turns to Elizabeth. "Would you mind going to your mother?" he asks her. She seems to be disappointed, but nods anyways.
