《Mr. Boss | ✓》XII
Advertisement
Your eyelids droop and your brain keeps coaxing you to take a nap but you will yourself to stay awake. The soft breeze brushing your bare skin gently doesn't help either.
Who does a photo shoot this early in the morning?! You think to yourself, annoyed.
You, along with BTS and other staff members, had to travel 25 Kilometres into the countryside leaving behind the bustling and lively city of Seoul for a photoshoot. You managed to get some sleep on your way here but that clearly wasn't enough.
Looking around you can't understand how all the staff are able to work so energetically when you're falling asleep standing up straight.
"Hey, sleepyhead." you feel a smile spread on your face.
Turning around you see Jimin all dressed up for his shoot.
"Here you go." he hands you a cup of steaming hot coffee, just what you need. You look up at him gratitude glimmering in your eyes.
"Thank you!!!"
Jimin gives you his signature smile. Your heart warms just as butterflies begin to dance in your belly. You love how his smile always reaches his eyes... Always so genuine.
Suddenly your ears perk up at the sound of barking coming from a distance. From the high pitched sound you know it's got to be a puppy and you excitedly look around.
Jimin's smile deepens and his eyes soften.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" You ask curiously.
"I saw the way your expression changed. Like a child when they hear the sound of an Ice Cream truck."
You're taken aback by his observation.
"Oh. So you think I'm a child?" You say jokingly but Jimin doesn't seem to sense the teasing tone.
"No.. no.. it's... I just think it's c-cute." Heat rushes to your cheeks and you giggle nervously unable to think of what else to do.
Oh my goodness!!! Did I just giggle?? Ughhh!!
"Yah! Jimin-ah!" You hear a rather deep voice call out and you're relieved Jimin's intense stare isn't focused on you anymore.
Both, you and Jimin turn around to see a tall man walking towards you flashing a boxy grin. He has on an oversized white t-shirt, loose black pants and slippers. Despite his laid-back style, he's what you would imagine a model to look like. And in his hand...
You squeal running towards him. Startled he stops in his tracks and holds the puppy over his head. You reach your own hands out but it's of no use so instead, you try jumping.
"Yah! Yah! What are you doing?" The tall man says, alarmed.
"I want to pet it!!" You say pouting. But the minute your eyes meet his the expression on his face changes to one of realisation.
"Ahh.. this must be our Maknae's new manager everyone's talking about." His boxy grin returns and you stop jumping shocked by his words.

Everyone's talking about me? What have I done now?
"I promise I didn't do anything this time." You say, worry etched into every feature of your face.
The man and Jimin exchange a look between themselves before they explode with laughter. Confused, you look between the two and begin to go scarlet in embarrassment.
"Taehyung-ah, this is Y/N," Jimin says, finally having composed himself, with a look in his eyes you can't seem to read. The man called Taehyung immediately stops laughing too and wipes the tears from his eyes.
"Ohhhh.." Taehyung says with a teasing tone. "Nice to meet you, Y/N."
You bow, still suspicious about what unspoken message passed between the two. But everything was forgotten when Taehyung placed the pup, he'd previously refused to give you, in your hands.
It was like a ball of cotton and looked too much like a lion. But one feature that stood out like a sore thumb was its eyebrows which made the poor thing look almost comically angry.
"What's its name?" You ask, refusing to take your eyes off of the cute ball of fluff that is hopping around trying to lick your hand.
"Yeontan," Taehyung replies promptly.
You were so distracted playing with Yeontan that you hadn't realised Jimin and Taehyung begin to whisper to one another. You knew eavesdropping wasn't a good habit but then again you weren't the noblest of beings.
Unfortunately, their voices weren't audible enough over the excited barking of Yeontan. You managed to catch a few words and phrases that didn't make sense to you. "Maknae's new manager" "didn't know it was the same person".
Growing more and more impatient you stand up and clear your throat.
"You know whispering in public is a bad habit right?" You say in a matter-of-fact tone.
They both look taken aback... But Taehyung recovers first. He laughs nervously and places a hand on Jimin's shoulder. "We weren't whispering."
You open your mouth to speak up but think better of it and instead say, "You said everyone's been talking about me."
Jimin looks the most relieved about the change in topic.
"Of course! This is the first time anyone of us has had a female manager.. and that too someone as pretty- I mean as young as you." Taehyung explained.
You pretend not to notice that little slip.
"Yah! Pabo!" You don't have to see the person to know who it was. That annoying voice gives it away.
"The devil's calling. I have to go." You wave them goodbye and kiss Yeontan on the head before walking towards the shoot.
You try to ignore how good Jungkook looks in his blue bomber jacket and shorts paired with Timberlands.. he wears those too often.
"What now?" You try to pack as much annoyance into each word as possible.

Jungkook suddenly looks like he's lost the ability to speak. He takes his hands out of his pockets and begins to wring them.
"I.. um.. I want banana milk!" He says looking quite happy with himself.
"You've got to be kidding me. You're a grown man for heaven's sake!!" You're in disbelief.
"So?" He looks genuinely hurt at your implications.
"I know you're not the smartest, Jungkook and that you probably haven't worked it out on your own.." He opens his mouth to argue, eyebrows shooting up but you continue. "But we're in the middle of nowhere. The nearest town is 7km away."
"I still don't see why that's a problem," he says nonchalantly.
How can he be so selfish?
You look both sides while driving hoping to spot some shop.. any shop but all your see are neverending stretches of green fields on either side of the road. The trees sway from side to side like hands waving at you.
That jerk!!! How can he be like this!!?? Has he no heart?? Or brain??
You're fuming!
After what seemed like hours of driving you to enter the town where shops are few. The area seems bleak and grey.. even it's people. You definitely stand out in your city clothes and the expensive company car. Parking your car you begin walking down a street in search of a convenience store. Heads turn and eyes follow you.
"Hey, Pretty girl. it's not safe to be roaming the streets and that too alone." A husky voice speaks.
"Hey... what's your name, pretty girl"
"Maybe I should help you out."
You pretend like nothing happened and keep walking but your legs move faster this time around.
You feel relieved at the sight of a convenience store and hurriedly move towards it.
Behind the counter sits an elderly lady who's completely unaware of your arrival despite the creaking door that could've woken up even someone asleep.
You make your way through the store looking for banana milk. Finally, having spotted a pack you grab it and swiftly move to the counter.
Clutching the pack tightly you half walk half run towards your car but stop in your tracks at the sight of it...
There stands your car in the corner of a countryside road, everything looks fine until you look a little lower and notice the missing tires.
What the-????!!!!
You blink your eyes several times hoping that all this would turn out to be a bad dream. Finally, forces your frozen limbs to move you get closer to the car.
How am I supposed to get out of here?
Panic pulses through your body causing your heart to race. It's getting dark and these dessert streets don't look safe. You rummage through your jacket pocket for your phone.
Damn it! I still haven't got a new phone yet!
You swear under your breath and look around desperately. When you hear footsteps behind you.
"Aiggo is this poor little girl lost..?" You immediately recognise the voice from before and clench your fist.
"Maybe we can help her out, Hyung." Something about the voice sends a chill down your spine.
"Listen, I don't need your help. Leave me alone." You spit the words out turning around to face them but it only seems to amuse the men further.
One of the men takes a step closer and attempts to touch your face but you swat his hand away.
"Ahhh... Isn't she feisty?" The man turns around fractionally to look at his companions. They all laugh and you feel anger replace fear.
Without warning, he reaches forward and grabs your wrist. You don't take long to recover from the shock and begin to pull your wrist free but fail miserably. Unable to think of anything else, you stamp his foot hard causing his grip to slacken.
Taking the opportunity you will your body to run... and run fast. You hear the loud voices of the men just behind you.
"Go!! Catch her!!"
"That way!"
"She went that way."
One narrow street leads to another and then another. And the further you go the darker it gets. You trip over a wooden pole laying on the ground and pick it up just in case...
You hear footsteps nearing and decide to hide behind a dumpster. A man comes running to where you stood only seconds ago.. he's breathless and scarlet with anger. You see him turn and run in the opposite direction and breath a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, you get pulled by your hair right out of your hiding place. You scream in pain.
"Thought you could run away from me, did you?" the man you'd hurt before barked in your face. All the while you didn't look away but fixed your graze on his.. refusing to surrender.
You swing the pole clutched in your hand hard towards him. A sickening sound echoes through the alley as the pole collides with his shoulder and a scream tears open the peace of the night. The man falls to the ground clutching his shoulder and whimpering in pain.
Shocked.. you hear the pole fall to the ground and don't remember letting go.
Your legs feel like jelly and they won't listen to you.
You got to get away. But before you can take another step you feel pain explode on the side of your head. Your vision blurs and the world around you begins to darken. Your knees give up and you crumble to the ground. You hear voices around you but nothing makes sense.. the throbbing pain in your head drowns everything else.
