The Dream

The Cafe

I woke up by hearing the sound of a.. ROOSTER! I sat up shocked. I looked around to see were was the Rooster! I have never told anyone, not even my sister, but, I was scared of chickens. 😬. It's kinda funny, ya I know, but.. I hated them. I didn't like most birds. Like, I like to watch them from a distance, but I never wanted one as a pet. Even though we had chickens in our house while we grew up, I was never a great fan of them. So now, since I heard the sound of the Rooster, it was the time to panic!. But then I realized, that it was my stupid alarm! Uhhh.... !!
I checked the time. It was 8'o' clock. I stretched , and slowly walked towards the washroom. I brushed, and washed my face. As I was free that day, and didn't have any special plans, I thought of going for a run. I changed into something sporty.

I grabbed my hair into a pony tail. I put on a cap, and took some money. In case if I wanted to eat something. I went outside. It was a cloudy day. I started to jog. It didn't know were I was headed to. After sometime, I reached a park. It was a really peaceful place. I sat down on a nearby bench. I took a few deep breaths. I could smell the fresh air, and the smell of dew on the grass. It was really refreshing. I decided to take a stroll through the park. I saw a few old men, sitting beneath a tree, laughing to some old jokes. I smiled to myself seeing such a happy moment.
Then I saw a mother and daughter.It looked like they were having a picnic. They were laughing happily, while there was light music playing from her phone. "... What a wonderful world... ". 'Indeed' I thought to myself. I jogged back to my hotel. It was tiring, indeed, but also refreshing. I decided to take a bath, since I was covered with sweat. After bath I dressed myself into something comfortable. I didn't know what to do, so I decided to watch something on Netflix. I watched almost 2-3 movies in a stretch. And without a snack! Well, that was a record! It was almost 3'o' clock. The weather was quite pleasant. And I wanted to go out. I got dressed into something casual. I called my manager, I told her that I was going out. She was ok with me going out alone, since people are not really excited to see celebrities walking around the streets ,since its LA. You could always find a celebrity or two in the LA streets. But I knew she would secretly send a bodyguard to watch me. So, there's that. I took my purse.

I thought of walking aimlessly, but since I am bad at finding ways, I chose to ignore that part. So I took a cab. I went to a nearby bread shop. I paid the cab driver, and went straight towards the shop. It was a really pretty shop. The architecture was really awesome. The shop was filled with the delicious fragrance of bread. I sat near the glass panel, which allowed me to see what was going on outside. It seemed really peaceful. There wasn't much people in there. And after a moment, the waitress came up to me. ' May I take your order please ma'am? '. She asked politely. ' Um, yes. Can I get a Croissant and a cup of tea please? '. 'Yes ma'am, just a moment. ' Then she went to another table, and took orders. I took out my phone, and wanted to listen to music. Then I saw Akshaya's message.

Akshaya: Hey, how are you? Hope you slept well. Didn't you say you wanted to say something to me? What is it?
That's when I remembered. I hadn't told her about BTS! I didn't tell her that how I created this unique connection with them with just a night! So I replied

Me: Hey, ya I know I didn't tell you about it. I forgot to call you today. It's something important. So, I'll call you after sometime ok?
Akshaya: Ok. 👍
After almost 15 minutes, my order,croissant and tea came. I loved it. It tasted really good!' I should give them a compliment about it. It's really good. ' I thought to myself. After having my snack, I called the waitress who came to me earlier, and handed her a $ 100 note. She seemed surprised. ' I loved it! It was really good. ' She smiled wide, and said, ' Our snacks are really famous around LA '. She seemed like she was a high schooler. Maybe she was doing this as a part time job. So I asked her, ' If you don't mind, can I ask you something? ' . She seemed confused, but she replied, ' No ma'am. You can ask me. ' ' Are you a high schooler? ' I asked. She smiled and nodded to my question. I took one more $100 note and handed it to her. She seemed really surprised. ' Take care. ' I told her. She smiled at me, and I smiled back at her.
As I was walking out of the cafe, I spotted someone, that I thought, I had seen before. I stopped and saw two people bickering to each other, and the third one just looking at them uninterested. I saw them from behind, so I couldn't make out who they were. Right then one of them turned, and I saw it was Junkook.
Jin was the one who was talking, and then there was Yoongi!. 'Whoa, how is it that wherever I go, they are there too! ' I thought to myself. Jin saw me, and he waved towards me. I walked towards them, and both Junkook and Yoongi gave me a happy smile. ' Hey, guys! What's up? ' I asked them cheerfully. Jin replied, ' We.. , came here to buy bread. ' he said in his Korean accent. I always found that accent really cute. I smiled at them, and asked, ' You seemed to be stressed about something. What happened? Can't decide what to buy? ' I asked them. Then Jin replied, ' No, I already took a bread, but Junkook said he want another one! ' he pouted. 'Aww.. Cute' I thought to myself. 'You know what, I think this one is really good. ' I took a loaf of bread from the section called Turkish Breads. I knew it was good. I tore a small piece from a loaf and gave it to all three. They tasted it, and they were shaking their heads enthusiastically. I think they liked it. 'So.. What do you think? Is it better?' They all gave me a thumbs up. I smiled widely. Then I said, 'Ok guys, I'll see you around. I think I should get back now. Byee'. As I was about to leave, Yoongi asked me, ' Hey, Criss.. In which hotel are you staying ? ' ' Oh, I'm staying in The Plaza' I answered. They smiled at me and said, ' We are also staying there. In room no 231.' I was surprised, well maybe not. Because it was one of the best hotels in The US! So, obviously they will stay there! But anyhow it didn't come up to my mind before. ' Oh wow, .. I'm in room no 234.' I answered. ' Oh, that means we are neighbors! ' Junkook said excitedly. I laughed, 'Yes, we are neighbours. ' We chatted for a little bit more, but then my phone rang. It was Akshaya. 'Oh.. Shit. I forgot again'. I thought to myself.
'Ok guys, I'll be leaving now. So I guess we will be seeing around much more, since we are " neighbors ". I teased Junkook. He laughed. 'Ya, we will. Bye bye'. I waved them goodbye. I hailed a cab, and after a few minutes I reached my room. I took out my phone and dialed Akshaya's number. She picked up within just 1 ring.
Akshaya: You know how many times I called you!!
She seemed angry
Criss: I'm sorry. I didn't hear it. I forgot. 😔
Akshaya: Mm.. It's ok.
Criss: Mm.. So, I have a really great news!!
I said excitedly.
Akshaya: Really! What is it?
Criss: Guess who I am Collaborating with?
Akshaya: Who?
Criss: BTS!!!!!!
I said excitedly.
Akshaya: OMG!!!!
Criss: Ya! I know right! I'm so excited!!!
Then I told her what happened in the awards, and everything that happened.
Akshaya: Whoa! Sounds soo exciting!!!
She shrieked.
Criss: Ah!! My ears! Don't shriek idiota!
Akshaya: Ahhhh!!!!!
She screamed thought he phone.
Criss: AKSHAYA THOMAS!!! Stop screaming!!!
Akshaya: No!!
I laughed. We had been best friends since collage. We loved each other so much, that there was no place for any stupid feelings like Jealousy, Envying etc etc...
Our bond was really strong, and it is unbreakable. I loved her, and she loved me back too. Soo much.
Criss: Did you have tea?
Akshaya: Ya, I had a coffee. Got some work to do too. So coffee helps a lot.
Criss: send me some work too. I don't want you to do everything by yourself...
Akshaya: It's nothing much, it's just some tiny things. I can handle it. Don't worry. You should concentrate on your schedule!
Criss: If it's tiny work, I would be able to do it within no time. Send me some work. And, don't worry about my schedule. I am free for today. And tomorrow after 1 'o' clock, I am free for the rest of the day!
Akshaya: And, oh! Were are you going with BTS? You said you wanna hangout with them right! Did you decide were you'll be going?
Criss: No. Not yet.
Akshaya: Wow! Great. Anyways , go somewhere fun. Not boring! And, dress according to the situation. Don't underdress!
Criss: Oye! I don't take people to boring places!
Akshaya: Oh yaa!! Sureeee! Remember one time when you took me to Opera??
Criss: Oh.. Ok! That was ONE time!
Akshaya: Oh ya! Remember when you took me to a Ballet recital of your friend??
Criss: Well,.. I had to go. She invited me.
Akshaya: You could have gone ALONE!!
Criss: Stop screaming! Ok. I won't take them to any Boring places.
Akshaya: Mm.. Good. Anyways. Go take rest. You have an early day tomorrow right! And don't forget to have something, and also drink your milk!
Criss: Ok mamma!
I could hear her giggle from the other side. I smiled.
Criss : And, YOU! Don't forget to send me half of the work .
Akshaya: Ahh.. It's nothing much man! I can..
Criss: Send me, or I won't talk to you anymore!
Akshaya: Ok fine! I'll send you.
Criss: Good. Ok bye bye. Good night.
Akshaya: Good night, take care.
After the phone call, I ordered 1 large pizza, and the usual Almond milk. I felt like I'll be able to finish it, because I was really hungry, even thought I just ate the Croissant. Well, I will eat more! No one is gonna stop me.
I decided to take a bath. I felt dirty. After the shower I took out my pajamas, not the one I wore last night, another one

I put on my lavender coloured fuzzy socks. It's so comfy! After sometime I heard the doorbell ring. It was the pizza delivery. The pizza delivery guy gaped at me. I was looking at him confused. 'Is he gonna hand me the pizza or not? ' was the question going on inside my head. Then he started talking all of a sudden. 'OMG! ' he shrieked. I was shook. "I AM YOUR GREATEST FAN!!! " he screamed. ' Whoa, buddy... I think you shouldn't scream.. ' I tried to make him calm, because I saw people peaking at me from their doors. 'Oh.. I'm sorry ma'am. Just.., got a little bit.. Excited'. He said shyly. I smiled at him. I gave him the money, plus tip, and I took the pizza and almond milk from him. Before getting in, I heard him call me. 'Umm.. Ma'am? ' . 'Yes? ' I asked. ' Can I have your autograph please? '. I smiled at him, and gave him my autograph. 'Thank you so much ma'am. And, congrats on yesterday's award! '. 'Thank you'. I smiled at him. As he went, I locked my door, and I started doing the work Akshaya sent me. She was right. It was only a little. I finished it within 5 minutes and I opened the pizza and started to watch The Stranger Things for the 45 th time now. Then suddenly I heard the doorbell ring. 'Who could that be? '. I thought to myself.
