❝ ʙʟᴀᴄᴋ ᴛᴇᴀ ❞
The boy turned a corner and came face to face with the white building after 5 attempts going wrong. He was glad he didn't accidentally go the wrong way again. He sighed to himself and opened the door, the sound of the bell welcoming him.
"Hiiiiii!" he heard a deep voice call to him.
A man about his age went up to him. He was super handsome like damn, is he even human? Anyways, the boy bowed. "Hi, I'm Chung Ae, I'm here for the job. I heard you were looking for a waiter?"
"Oooooh yeahhh," the handsome man said, "take a seat! Anywhere you like, be right back."
Chung Ae chose a random table and sat down, the sounds of cars usually passing by. He shivered as a cold breeze passed by, which was practically impossible because he was inside a building. He turned toward the cold air and saw a figure walking up to him.
The handsome man was back with a notepad. He gave Chung Ae a boxy grin. "Sorry about that, the others were hanging in the freezer like the aliens they are. Anyway, let's begin, shall we?"
Chung Ae nodded as the man took a seat opposite him. "My name is Taehyung, but you can call me Taehyung."
"Let's see," Taehyung tapped his chin as he stared at the notepad, "you said you wanted to be a waiter, right?"
"Yes." Chung Ae answered. Simple is always best.
"Okaaaay." Taehyung scribbled something in the papper. "Name and age?"
"Um, Lee Chung Ae, age 25."
"Hey, we're the same age!" Taehyung said. He scribbled some more into the paper. "State your purpose."
"Pardon?"
"Why do you wanna work here?"
Chung Ae thought for a while. "I just want a job, I guess. I need the extra money for college, and I wanna save up so I can supply for my future family-"
"Tsk, tsk , tsk." Taehyung shook his head like something was wrong. "That's so boring."
"Um, am I supposed to come up with a sob story or something?"
"Oooh, yesss, I'm all for a scary story, or a dumb story." Taehyung rested his chin on his hand.
"Uhh-"
"Taehyung, stop fooling around." a tall girl called out.
"Right, right." Taehyung muttered and began scribbling again. Chung Ae shifted uncomfortably. "Uh, do you have anymore questions for me?"
"Oh yup yup." Taehyung said. "Where were you born? And do you have pets?"
"Well, I was born in Seoul and I had a cat named Kimchi who ran away from home because my brother kept feeding it moldy potato chips." Chung Ae answered truthfully.
"Oh wow." Taehyung said. He scribbled some more. Chung Ae was half expecting him to hold up a messy portrait of him or something, because Taehyung definitely wasn't writing anything.
"Hey, why do you smell like lemons and.... wood?" Taehyung asked, not looking up from his paper.
"Um, I have lemon candy on me at all times because I can not live without it. And as for the wood, I really do not know."
"Well, guess what?" Taehyung grinned. "You're hired."
"Seriously?" Chung Ae asked. That was literally the easiest interview ever. He did want the job, but for real though, if all interviews were like that he'd easily breeze right through. Still, he was grateful he got the job.
"Yeah, I'm not like Sooyoung. She searches for serious, hard-working, nice people. If you spark my interest, you're hired!" Taehyung said. "Also, what do you think?"
Taehyung held up his notepad which now had a drawing of some alien with a heart for a head and plump lips. "It's cute." Chung Ae half-smiled.
"I know right, I'm such a genius." Taehyung said. "Anyways, good luck Chung Ae! You're officially our first waiter. Well, second waiter. Happy to have ya!"
i hope u like it sis, im rlly sorry tae was so self centered lmao but dw all workers will get a chance to shine
