Hey beautiful/handsome,
care to drop a vote?

(It took 10 seconds to get to the top floor, but it felt like eternity. The doors opened, as he walked out of it and I followed)

(He pushed the glass doors and walked inside the office, sitting on the seat behind the desk, with his legs crossed)

(I wet my lips and blinked twice looking at him, remembering all the sweet and sour moments spent with him years ago)

*Park Jimin...*

FLASHBACK
(5 years ago)
(high school)

(Walking towards the rooftop, I opened the door to meet Jimin smiling brightly, walking towards me and gently holding both of my hands, he said-)

Jimin: I got offered a place in NYC, AinTECH, they want me there for 4 yea-

Seo-yeon: W-wait, 4 years?...

Jimin: Yeah, starting next week

Seo-yeon: 7 days...I-I mean that's awesome Jimin!

Jimin: I know right! It'll be such an amazing achievement for my career!

*he looks so...happy*

(I smiled bitterly, tears welling up my eyes as I hugged him tightly)

Seo-yeon: We could try long-distan-

(He chuckles, making me pull away and look at him confused)

Jimin: Seo, I want you to come with me...

Seo-yeon: Jimi-

Jimin: It'll be a great experience for you! In a new country an-

Seo-yeon: I can't move all the way to another country Jimin...

Jimin: Then I think we should end it...

Seo-yeon: We should what?

Jimin: Seo, I know, I don't want to either, but I really want to use this chance...

Seo-yeon: You're right

Jimin: Huh? What do yo-

Seo-yeon: Maybe we should end it...

END OF FLASHBACK

Jimin: Are you okay?

(I break out of my trance and look at jimin, when I realize that I had tears trickling down my face)

(I swiftly wipe my tears away and smile, looking at him as he clears his throat)

Jimin: Miss- um, Your name?

*What th- He doesn't remember me?...*

Seo-yeon: Seo-yeon, Kim Seo-yeon

Jimin: Alright, every morning when I come to the office, could you read out the schedule for the day? Oh and also, you'll have to read through emails and files and check for grammatical mistakes and policy issues I might have missed. And one last thing, every morning, coffee, espresso...okay?

Seo-yeon: U-uh sure, anything else?

Jimin: Nope, that's all

Seo-yeon: Okay then, I'l-

(I turn around to leave to my desk when he stops me)

Jimin: Wait

(I turn around and blink innocently, looking at him, waiting for him to explain)

Jimin: Let's go shopping, you know how to drive right?

Seo-yeon: Yes Mr Park

(He throws me the car keys as it lands on my face, then falling on the floor as I look at him in disbelief)

Jimin: (clears throat) start the ca-

Seo-yeon: Don't you have a driver?

Jimin: (scoffs) he left early today, start the car
