5 Chapter 5

I rush with the wind supporting me with ease. I feel like I'm flying, no less like a bird. I twirl in mid air to the sweet melody of a new town. I arrive at my destination in around 30 minutes. I slam the door and lock the car into place. I look at the place before me and breathe in sharply. I wonder why Teahyung needs me to help with a customer.

As soon as I walk in, a whiff of scents hits my nose and makes me almost lose my composure. I cough slightly before heading forward. I glance around at the neat tables spread with red cloth and white napkins. The cutlery are placed in equal distances to each other and stay there, beaming at the great chandelier hanging above the place. The food, apart from the scent, is neatly decorated to make any critic fall deeply in love with it and the beverages sit fashionably beside the food trying to make any hungry soul slide into the mahogany seats and order a buffet.

"Excuse me." Someone says behind.

I turn around.

There is an elderly man in an ancient yet beautifully stitched kimono.

"Yes? May I help you?" I say with the most kindness that I can give.

"Yes. Please can you show me where the Manager of this place is? I'm supposed to be meeting with him."

"Uh..." Damn. I don't know where Teahyung is. What should I do?

"Sure. Just follow me." I say, quickly zooming my head frantically from one area of the Restaurant to another. Then, as if by miracle, he appears out from the kitchen area.

"Follow me, sir." I say, happily taking the elderly man towards Taehyung.

On coming upon the distance of Teahyung, I say his name lightly. He looks at me. For some reason he's staring at me.

"Junkook! You made it." He says cheerily.

"Y-Yeah. Um, this man here wanted to see you..." I show the elderly man that's still holding onto my hand.

Teahyung's eyes seem to be expanding.

By the speed of light, Taehyung has bowed in front of the man. I gulp. Should I have done so too?

I see Taehyung gesturing for me to do the same. So I fly my upper body over in a 45 degree angle and say:

"Mianhe for my disrespect sir."

"No need to be so formal with me gentlemen. I may be the director but I'm not to be feared. Now, who may you be young man? I see you don't bear the same outfit as the other workers." The director says.

"I'm Jeon Junkook. I am the manager of Seoul Star Company. It's an honor to meet you at last." I stand up straight.

"Ah. Junkook. I've heard good things about you from Taehyung and your clients. I applaud you for your every success and fortune."

"Thank you sir. I shall try to do my best." I respond with respect.

"Now that I have you boys here. I would like to ask an important question.

The director stands there...ready to give us the life or death question that will change our lives for ever...
