A Part of Me [Completed] ✅

Chapter 38

"Come on! Will you hurry up?"

"Where are you taking me Mr Kim?"

Seokjin huffed irritably and stopped on the sidewalk.

"For. The. Millionth. Time. It's JIN!!! Now come on, or I'll tell Jungkook that you almost got me knocked down by a car," Jin threatened.

"Huh???? But that's a lie! I did no such thing!"

"Of course it's a lie Chang! But he won't know that," I smirked at him and pulled him harder in the direction of the restaurant.

He sighed heavily and trudged along grudgingly.

"I hate you, you know that Jin?"

"Thank you. Of course I know and I don't care anyway. We're doing this and you will shut up or I'll....I'll do something worse," Jin threatened again.

They entered the restaurant and Jin dragged a harrassed looking Chang to the back, past all the patrons. He smiled at them before pushing the door to the kitchen, open and shoving Chang inside.

Seokjin greeted his workers and threw an apron at a harried looking Chang, who just grumbled but did what Jin wanted, knowing that it was a lost cause to argue. Jin would have his way.

"Get to work and make the best fucking japchae you ever did!"

"Fine," Chang moaned and mumbled, imitating Jin under his breath.

"Did your ass just complain? If you don't do it, I'll tell haleomoni that you were planning on poisoning her," Jin threatened again.

Chang threw the spoon down that he was holding and looked at Jin with a shocked expression.

"You wouldn't?!" He was incredulous.

Seokjin just bounced around the kitchen and looked nonchalant.

"Don't test me Chang! Get to work! And not a word out of you again."

Poor Chang. He shut his mouth then and got to work. He was so busy with his task that he didn't notice someone walk into the kitchen that wasn't kitchen staff. The man stood aside and stared at Chang, who was busy humming and cooking, absorbed in his task. He scooped out the completed japchae and plated it like a professional, garnishing it with a flourish and smiling to himself.

"Wow! That smells amazing," the stranger said, "Can I try some please?" He looked at a stunned Chang, amused at his expression.

"Urm. ...yeah...I guess," his eyes searched for Seokjin as he handed the man a pair of chopsticks and a bowl.

"Thank you, eh.....?"

"Chang."

"Right. Chang. Are you new here?" He asked, looking at him with interest.

"No actually. I don't work here but Jin, oh gosh, what I mean to say is, Chef brought me here for today."

"Hmmmm, interesting. Wow! This food is amazing! I love it! How did you do that?"

Chang smiled stupidly. "I-I well, my grandma was a great cook and she worked for Koreans here. She learnt a lot of the cuisines and she taught me as I was growing up. I've always loved the kitchen but destiny took me down a different path. I work for Chef's family."

The man slurped at the tasty food and screwed his face up in confusion.

"You mean, you work for the Jeon's, for Jungkook?"
