Still With My Memories

31. A Day in Life of Park Jimin

Everyone seems busy looking at their own monitor when we enter the office. Some greeted us whilst others continue with their serious discussion.

I bowed and smiled as greeting.

I can hear some murmurs as we passed some young female employees but I don't understand anything so I just smiled making them shriek and released an unknown weird suppressed sound making me flinch in surprise. Taehyun just smiled and give a reassuring look.

He seems to be used seeing such reactions.

My eyes wanders everywhere. Taehyun pulled me away from Jungkook after he was called by a familiar face but I failed to remember his name. So here I am nervously sitting in front of Taehyun. "No need to be tensed. I just want to know you better." He said whilst flipping the pages of his cardboard wearing a weird smile. "I think you'll look better with your eyes showing though." He added with a wink making me smile forcefully. If only he knows what's hiding behind this dark glasses.

I wonder if he'll still think the same.

"So... you actually don't have any experience in modelling?" Taehyun asked as he rest his chin on his intertwined hands leaning on the table. "Yeah... It will be my first time." I said confirming the fact. "Really? With that looks?" He asked making me chuckle as I remember how I look way back then.

"I looked a total nerd growing up with my thick glasses, chubby cheeks and bowl haircut" My honest remarks that make him look at me with disbelief with eyes wide open. "Really?!" He asked.

I just nod with a smile.

"I wonder what made you change" He uttered as if waiting for an explanation.

"What made me change?"

-Flashback-
I heaved a sigh wiping few droplets of sweats in my forehead. The book I've written had received positive feedbacks and the company is considering to mass publish it. So here I am, despite the scorching hot weather had to deliver sample printed files to our editor in chief's house as she was working at home for the meantime. I'm still a part timer though so I had to do the errands.

Struggling with the files I carry, I hopped in the already crowded bus whilst hugging few copies of thick printed files.

Like any other busy day, just like me, many people are struggling working their asses off for their own selfish reasons.

As for me, it's just a distraction.

It's been a month since Taehyung started his training and I wouldn't lie that I've been missing him a lot so I keep myself busy from work and studies.

**********
"Ahm... I'm sorry... Excuse me.. I'm sorry..." A voice of a man apologizing being the last one who stepped in the bus. By the sound of his voice, he must be struggling also to find enough space to settle himself. I took a fast glance at him and immediately questioned his attire as he wear dark gray hoodie that covers half of his face in this hot weather. He was carrying several bags as well and by the look of it, I guess those are heavy equipments probably big cameras.

Another person struggling with work just like me.

I almost flinch when he settled in a small space behind me. "I'm sorry". He uttered with his breath passing through my hair since distance is nonexistent between us. "It's okay." I mouthed uncertain whether the man heard me.

Few minutes passed and I didn't realize I dozed off while standing so I immediately checked the files I'm holding worried if I dropped any but just then, I saw a hand supporting my papers from falling.
