And so the day passed by with Taehyung helping Min-Hi throughout the day with anything she needed. She questioned him about certain documents that she wasn't seeming to understand and he explained it to her in the best way possible.

It was already past seven when Min-hi tidied up the desk, placing her bag strap over her shoulder, ready to leave. She could've just left the moment the clock strike half past six, but she didn't want to give a bad first impression and that she was serious with her work.

"You're going already?" He asked her as she shut the door behind her and he also tidied his working space.

"Yeah" she gave a light nod.

"Let's go together" he suggested, so they left the building together. By the time they had reached outside, Min-Hi didn't see Jimin's car so she tried calling his phone but it sent it automatically to voice mail.

Her co worker, standing next to his Mercedes, noticing her fidgeting through her phone while looking frustrated, ended up offering her a ride "Do you want me to take you home?"

She had texted her stupid cousin in the middle of the afternoon if he could pick her up and he told her he would do it without any issues and yet his ass still hadn't arrived. To top it off, he's not answering his messages nor do they appear 'seen' and the line doesn't go through when she calls.

Maybe his phone died... and he got stuck in traffic...

She ended up deciding to wait. "Thanks, but my cousin will be picking me up"

So he nodded, accepting her decision and drove off.

The air was getting colder since it was night time and she had forgotten to bring a jacket. She rubbed her arms to try and gain some warmth as she waited, but he was taking so damn long.

"What the hell... Jimin" She mumbled in frustration. If she walked home it would easily take her 30 minutes to get there, but to walk 4km in heels didn't seem like the best idea to her. In her mind she was sure that by the time she had reached home, her feet would have committed suicide. Plus there weren't any close bus stops to her workplace, so it pretty much sucked.

She was getting tired of waiting. It was already past eight at night and her dumb cousin still hadn't arrived.

"I should've accepted his ride" She began regretting the decision she had made.

Screw it! Let's kill my feet!

She began walking down the pavement, until she heard a car beeping behind her. "Finally you arr-" She cut herself off as she turned around, taking notice that it wasn't him but her boss, getting closer with the car as he pulled down his window.

"Are you going home?" He asked.

"Ah... yeah" She nodded.

"Need a ride?" He offered.

She wondered if she should or not go with her boss. She was scared that maybe it would look weird, but she ended up accepting it this time since the weather was getting cooler and cooler and she didn't want to exactly murder her feet. "If it's okay with you...." and he nudged his head, signalling her to hop on and so she did.

"Where do you live?" He asked, before starting the engine, so that he could insert it in his GPS, and so she did.

As he drove down the road, she stole glances at him, appreciating how handsome her superior looked. He really had this unique aura about him and she found it amazing how such a handsome guy also seemed so nice. I mean.... nowadays it's like the guy already knows he's handsome, so he ends up thinking he's got a crown on his head. Following the road to be an ass hole and thinking that all chicks will simply bow down to their feet. It's kind of hard to find both qualities of being extremely hot and kind stuck on one guys body. It's either you get ugly but nice or hot but a dick.

Honestly, Min-hi had always been the type that preferred a guy that didn't have the looks but treated her properly than a guy that did have them but treated her like trash. What sucked in her life, was that even though she thought like that, the guys she dated back in her high school to university days, they weren't the best looking and yet they still managed to cheat on her.

Point is! The human body that was driving the car, looked too good to be true. A true rare species.

"Do I have something on my face?" He asked, since he felt her stare. Well, she didn't exactly look at him discreetly.

"Ah no... I was just stuck in thought" She stuttered, which made him chuckle. Stuck in thought... looking at his face?! Seriously Min-hi? Who does that?

"So... why did you leave Hoseok's place?" He suddenly asked as he changed the gear, but she didn't really feel like talking about it. She hated his guts to kingdom come.

"Just because..." She mumbled. She literally didn't even want to hear his name. Just remembering the way he treated her gave her the shivers. If I could run him over, I would! It's actually too bad it's a crime....

Noticing that it wasn't a topic she wanted to touch, he changed it. "Do you have your license?"

"I do..." She nodded.

"Why don't you drive to work? Wouldn't it be easier?"

"I only drive if i's an emergency..." She answered, which made him scrunch his eyebrows in confusion "Why?"

She than curled her lips in, in embarrassment because the reason she didn't drive was actually pretty ridiculous but sadly the truth. "... because... I'm scared of ramps, I have a problem controlling the car, so I get scared it will fall back and hit another car...."

He abruptly stopped the car and laughed himself sick. "You're joking right?"

"Nope... and can you not laugh..." She wanted to throw herself on the ground at how pathetic she knew it was. She then looked to the side and realized they had arrived at her place.

"Sorry..." He chuckled, wiping a tear that had decided to escape his eye.

"Thank you for the ride, Mr Jeon" She rolled her eyes since she got mad that he laughed at her but didn't show it to him, as she opened the door to step out.

"You don't have to call me Mr Jeon. After all, I'm not your boss after half past six" He smiled adding "... just call me Jungkook"
