"Yah" Min-Hi tapped her hand on Jimin's shoulder. "I need to go home and get ready for the interview"

"But you're already dressed" He commented, slipping his hands into his jeans pockets.

"But I'm going to change my outfit, since 'bad luck' is drenched on this one" She chuckled pointing at her clothes, which made him let out a giggle.

"There's still the possibility of getting turned down, you know" He just had to be a party pooper. "It's just and interview. Don't create too many expectations" He spoke honestly to her.

"Tsk" She hissed. "Yah! Even if that is the case... If I'm going to get rejected, I might as well look good doing so" she remarked, letting out small giggles.

"You're weird in so many ways" He playfully wrapped his left arm around her shoulders as he pointed down the road "Let's go, I'll give you a ride to the place while I'm at it"

-----------------

(4:50 p.m.)

"Hmmmn" Min-hi hummed in the car as Jimin followed the GPS. "It should be around here..."

"Oh! I see it!" She tapped the window of the car, spotting the company on the corner of a big building.

"I'll wait for you here. So.. good luck" He spoke after parking the car on the side of the road, lifting his fist to cheer her on.

"Thanks" She smiled cheerfully as she stepped out of the car and made way to the building.

She took a deep breath, looking at the name 'JK company' and entered the room. She walked up to the receptionist.

"How may I help you?"

"My name is Kim Min-hi, I have a scheduled interview with..."

What was his name again?

"...Mr. Taehyung..." She remembered, feeling a bit nervous as the woman made a call while she took a few glances at her. Min-Hi scratched the tip of her ear as she waited for a response while letting her eyes scan the room around her. She always had this habit of scratching, some area of her head when she felt bothered with something or really nervous.

There were a few couchs in the middle of the room, which was probably for people who were waiting and plants on each end of the entry door. The walls were painted between black and white. It was simple but very nice.

"You can go in" She smiled. "Mr. Taehyung, is waiting for you on the fifth floor"

"Thank you" she smiled back, before making her way to the elevator and pressing the number '5' button.

'Ping'

The elevator doors opened and she was greeted by a very handsome man, with light brown hair but with small shades of blonde. His skin was pale with pinkish plump lips and dark chocolate eyes.

"Miss Min-Hi?" He asked as she snapped out of her thoughts that were analysing the complexion of this man.

"That would be me" She nodded, stepping out of the small cubical.

"I'm Taehyung" He spoke formally. "Please follow me" and she did what she was told.

He knocked on the door twice and opened the door, signalling her to go in. She gently bowed, but respectfully to the man that showed her the way, just before she turned her gaze to the desk that was in front of a beautiful view, who had a man that was seated with his back turned to her.

"Please take a seat" He spoke, turning his chair slowly around to face her, while she did what she was told.

The moment, she sat, placed her handbag on the floor next to her left leg and turned her head up. She found herself staring at the man she had met just a week ago. The day she said her beautiful goodbye to her tyrant of a boss.

Jungkook?! Isn't he that guy I had a coffee with?

"Oh" He gave her a look of surprise as if he hadn't known it was going to be her. Letting out a small chuckle as he lift up from his seat and walked to the front of his desk, sitting on the corner of the table, right in front of her.

"What a coincidence" She giggled, noticing who the man was. "...or did you know it was me" she joked which made him smirk, crossing his hands over his chest.

"There are many Kim Min-Hi's out there" He justified. "... Besides... you were suggested by a friend of my secretary" He lift his eyebrow, which made her chuckle.

"Well... for us to meet like this, the world sure is small" She found the situation peculiar yet funny.

"Indeed it is" He giggled.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

(4 days ago...)

"Did you look her up like I asked?" Jungkook looked at the view of Seoul from his office.

"Yeah... She's Kim Min-Hi, 23 and is living with an older brother who's a lawyer. Her parents passed away when she was sixteen and currently unemployed. She's not registered in Hoseok's company like you had spoken.." Taehyung spoke what he had found out.

"Hmmm..." Jungkook hummed.

"But according to my sources... Hoseok has been placing workers illegally. She could have been one of those workers..." He added which made Jungkook smirk, while resting his forearms on the table and locking his fingers between his own hands. "Sounds like something, Hoseok would do"

"I want you to scout her to our company" He spoke firmly as he turned his chair around. "I was planning to get her in our team but seeing that she's unemployed... it just makes it easier"

"It's best to wait a bit to not make it so obvious" His right hand man suggested while adding. "Besides... I may have a way to lure her in. I found out she's a friend of my friend Jimin, who's apparently posing in as her 'cousin'" Which made Jungkook raise an eyebrow.

"And why would that be?" He asked smirking as Taehyung scratched the corner of his nose. "I'm curious myself"

~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Weren't you working at Hoseok's?" Jungkook asked as if he didn't know the situation.

"I was but left the day we met" She answered honestly.

"Why was that?"

"Well..." She wondered if she could be completely honest, but ended up choosing the truth "...to be honest, he never actually put me on contract so I quit" There was no need to tell him he nearly treated her like a dog.

As she spoke with him, the nervousness she had when she entered had left the building.

'I think this feels more like a reunion than an interview...' She thought for a second.

"By the way, didn't you say you'd give your number if we'd meet again" He spoke sweetly as he leaned in forward, placing his hands on each side of the chair, which made her nervous system find it's way back to her body.

"I'm sure you can get that from your secretary" She giggled nervously as she added "And can I just say you're too close"

.... way too close...

"Oh" He smirked, rubbing his chin smoothly.

"So, can you start first thing tomorrow?" He asked, making his way back to his comfortable chair.

"Does that mean I got the job?" She spoke with a happy tone as he nodded.

"Just a question... can you speak english?" He asked out of the blue.

"Ah ye (yes)" She nodded.

"Perfect... I'll see you tomorrow" He smiled as Min-Hi bowed in happiness and made way out of the building.

'I can't believe I nailed it!' She threw a party in her mind.
