Getting a new job

Mia's POV

She cut the call immediately.

What is wrong with her? Why has she changed? Not only her, but Jimin also. I don't know what to do with them both.

I went to the guys. I didn't know how to tell them this.

"Guys, I have something to tell you. Actually..." I didn't know how to say it. And I did t know how the guys will take it.

"Are you getting promoted?" Jin oppa said. I shook my head saying no.

"Actually.... Y/n...."

"What happened to her?" Namjoon asked.

"She quit her job."

"What? Why?" They all asked worried.

"I don't know why but she resigned and said that she'll miss you guys a lot and wishes best of luck to you guys." As I said tears flowed.

"Mia, don't worry. She'll come back. She might have her reasons to leave. But I'm sure she will come back." Namjoon comforted me and I hugged him and cried more.

Jimin's POV

I was shocked to hear what Mia said. She resigned her job. I thought that would be the way I could at least see her if I can't talk to her.

Our lives are really messed up. It's all a mess. How do I even meet her again? I know she said she doesn't want to talk to me, but I can't leave it.

Ugh!!! I don't know what to do. Just leave it? Or think she'll come back?

No she's not gonna come back. Nothing's gonna be like before.

******************

Y/n's POV

I woke up and refreshed myself.

I couldn't stop thinking about yesterday. My eyes were swollen. I covered it with some cream.

"Everything's gonna get back on track soon. Don't worry." I said to my reflection in the mirror.

I didn't have any other dress so I went to get one first.

As I got one, I immediately changed and checked out the hotel and just walked.

I stopped in front of a convenience store. I got in and bought some snacks cause I was hungry.

I was at the counter.

"Do you need any workers here?" I asked, without hesitating.

"Uhh... no ma'am. We're actually full of workers, sorry."

"It's ok." I paid him and walked some distance.

I sat down on a bench and ate some snacks. I couldn't stop thinking about Jimin.

I lost my family and now him. I didn't expect this to happen.

I started walking thinking where to go next. Where will I work next.

I stopped suddenly and turned towards my left.

There was a sheet which said 'workers required'.

I immediately went in.

"Excuse me, I read about the workers needed. Is there anything I can do?" I asked the woman who was standing there.

"Yeah, that you should talk to the manager about." She said and continued her work.

"Hi miss. Anything I can help you for?" A young male, almost my age, but a bit taller, asked me.

"Uhh...umm... I'm actually looking for a work. Is there anything your manager can offer?" I asked him.

"Sure miss. I'll tell you the jobs that are vacant. The door opener, the worker, the cleaner which doesn't suit you, and the PA for the manager." He said.

When I heard PA, gone thoughts came back. All those wonderful memories I had with them as a friend and as a PA.

"Miss, anything wrong?"

"No, I'm fine. So what job do I get? I'm sure one must be vacant." I said doubtful.

"Yes, we do have only one job vacant. And it's being PA for the manager."

My mind went blank.

"Miss? Miss?" He called. I nodded.

"So... do you want the job?"

I had no other option. I have to do this.

"Yes, I would like to have the job." I said firmly.

"Ok, let me show you your desk." I followed him.

"So what is your job here?"

"I just work here." He said.

"What exactly is this? I meant, is it a selling company or making?" I asked.

"We sell and make designs. This is one of the biggest companies that sells different kinds of dresses for celebrities. For special events and functions." He said.

"I'm not that good at fashion designing. I just know a little." I said.

"It's ok, I'll help you out." I smiled at him.

We reached the room.

"So this is your desk. And that's the manager's office."

"So when does the manager come?"

"He'll come anytime and go. You don't need to worry about that."

"Ok. So... are you sure I'm selected for the job?"

"Yeah, a one hundred percent." He assured. I nodded.

"Do I have a schedule? Or just sit here and keep typing something or sit simply?"

"Where did you work before?" He asked.

"W-what?" I asked a bit low.

"I asked where did you work before."

"Th-that's none of y-your business. Just go do your job." I said and sat down.

"Ok. Tell me when you're ready."

"Wait! What's your name? We didn't get to know each other." I asked.

"I'm James."

"I'm Y/n. Nice to meet you." I said and we shook hands.

He went out. I just sat back and thought what to do now. I looked through my phone.

He had posted a picture with Aerum saying,

"Hey ARMY!! I've finally met my soulmate. But I love you guys more than anything."

Tears poured.

'Y/n it's all gone. There's no use of weeping now. You should've not shouted at him. Now see what you created. You lost everything on your own.'

*knock knock

I wiped my tears and got up. It was James.

"What do you want?" I asked him.

"Were you crying?"

"It's none of your business. Now tell, what you want?"

"I came to say that the manager will be coming tomorrow."

"Ok. I'll take care of it. Now can you please leave?" He nodded and left.

***************

James's POV

I went to her room to say that the manager will come tomorrow. I can't hide who it is to her.

I knocked on the door and went in. I saw her wiping her tears.

I said her the manager will come tomorrow.

I went out and saw her from the glass. Tears were pouring from her eyes. I felt bad for her. Whatever the problem is, she should get over it soon, I hope so.

Y/n's POV

I kept walking here and there. I couldn't think of anything else. My mind was filled with Jimin.

I just walked out and to the terrace. I took a deep breath and let out a heavy one.

"What did I ever do to deserve this nor what did he do to deserve this?" I said myself.

I thought what went wrong and where it went wrong.

"Who didn't deserve what?" I heard someone.

I turned and saw someone unfamiliar.

"May I know who are you?" I asked him kindly.

"Who are you first? Then I'll answer you."

"I'm appointed as the new PA for the manager."

"I work here." He said blankly.

"As what? Mind to explain in detail."

"I work as the head designer in the designing section." I nodded.

"Didn't you work as a PA before?" He asked.

I stood frozen.

"H-how do y-you know?"

"I've seen you with the idol group, BTS. I've designed few costumes for them." I just nodded.

"Did they chuck you out of the job?"

"It's none of your business to know." I said coldly.

"Ok, I have some work. Maybe, see you soon." He said and left.

I just took sometime for myself and tried to forget everything. But I couldn't.

I excused myself from the company and went for a walk.

I just walked and I looked around. It looked familiar.

I've been this way a lot of times before. I looked to my right and saw the coffee house.

The coffee house, I used to work at.

I went in. To my luck, I saw the manager inside.

"Mr. Kang?" I called him

"Y/n? Oh y/n. Is it really you, that I'm seeing?" I hugged him.

He was like my father. He knew I lost my parents and helped me get the job at that time.

"How are you doing? Is it all good?"

"Ne, everything's going good. How about you and the coffeehouse? Looks like you've renovated it a lot."

"Yeah. It was kinda getting old so we had to. And everything's going well." He said.

I looked back at the counter I worked in. Suddenly, I saw a familiar face. A face of someone I'm seeing after a long time.

"W-who is that?" I asked pointing at her.

"She is.... ah.. umm... she's the one I replaced you with. Her name's So-won."

I knew it was her. She was my replacement? But why?

"I have some work, I'll take a leave. You can stay here how long you want." He said and left.

I walked up to her and just stood there.

"What would you like to have, the one who sent my fiancé to jail?" She said.

"Ok, now I get why I lost my job here. But I got into a bigger job. People like you, are here, and making money, while she couldn't marry her fiancé, who was rich in some kinda way."

"Just do what you came here for."

"That is what I'm doing. I'll have a frappe. To go."

She handed the bill and I waited for the drink.

It took her a lot more time to come.

"Did you find someone else for yourself? Or gonna stay single till he comes out from jail, which I don't think he'll come out."

"Take your order and have a nice day." She said smiling.

I knew something was weird.

"Hey babe." A guy called her and hugged her.

"Wow! I didn't expect it to happen this fast."

"Will you just go?" She said coldly.

"Yeah. But before that.... this drink is for your boyfriend, I think that's what you call him. It's a gift from me." I said and gave it to him.

"Woah! Thanks!" He said and took it from me and was about to take a sip when she pushed it away from his hands.

"Hey! Why'd you do that?" Her boyfriend whined.

"Just like I knew it was "it". Anyways, see you later." I said and left.

I walked back to the office. I looked for James, but I couldn't find him.

"Hey! Finding for me?"

"Woah! You scared the heck out of me. And yeah, I was searching for you, cause I don't know anyone and thought you could show me around."

"Ok. Come on, I'll show you around." I followed him.

"So this is the suit section. Here we have all kinds of colours with its shades. And that side is women's section. We also rent clothes."

"Ok yeah. I remember, weren't you the guys who rented your clothes for the stage show of 'Not Today' by the group BTS during the award show a year ago right?"

"Yeah. So you did know us." He said and we walked further.

"Y/n, I would like you to meet someone." He said and called someone. He looked familiar.

"Y/n, this is Tae Yong, the head of the designing department. And Tae Yong, this is Y/n, the manager's new assistant." He said.

"We've already met." I said.

"Great. Y/n, you'll be also part of the designing team."

"I shouldn't be doing this. I'm not that good at designing nor fashion."

"Tae Yong will guide you and I'll also help you out."

"Ok, see here James, I just want a normal job so I'll better stick with being the assistant. Nothing else." I just blurted out.

"Is this how you talk to him?" Tae Yong rose in anger.

"What is wrong? He works here right?" I asked doubted.

"Tae Yong, why don't you continue your work?" He said signalling something.

"Is there something you're hiding? Please tell me." He didn't say anything.

I just went back to my desk. I sat on the couch and just thought what it could be. Tears flowed.

"Y/n."

"What is it?" I asked.

"Y/n, why are you crying?"

"James please tell me who you are. Please. I think you as a friend and I don't want to loose you too." I said crying.

He cupped my cheeks and wiped my tears.

"I'm actually the manager of this company."

I was shocked to hear.

"Why didn't you tell me before?"

"Everyone gave me so much respect and all. But you were open and different. I thought to tell you tomorrow, but I'm sorry."

"It's ok."

"So back to friends?" He asked.

"Sure." I said and hugged him.
