“She left like an hour ago,” Secretary Kim was telling Ji Hyun.
“She left? How come I didn’t realize that she left?”
“Because she didn’t feel well and told me to inform you but I forgot since I was helping a guest.”
“Oh, no worries. I’ll see her tomorrow then,” Ji Hyun waved at Ms Kim and went to go look for his brother.
“Hyung?” he looks around, but Jimin was nowhere to be seen, “Where did Hyung go? What is up with everyone today?”
Ji Hyun walked off to look for his brother.
Y/n was getting wasted on her vodka collection when she heard a doorbell. That’s weird. She only has a few friends here and they were busy with their work so couldn’t make it to her party. Who could it be?
She wobbled over slowly to the door to look at the peep hole. All she say was shoulders but they looked pretty masculine. What’s the worst that could happen? After a quick thought in her impaired judgement, she opens the door and her eyes widen.
“Jimin?” she laughs, “what the hell are you doing here?”
“I came to see if you were okay.”
“See if I was okay? Wow! The great Park Jimin not only remembers me but also cares about if I’m okay!” Y/n hiccups. She giggles as she loses her balance and Jimin catches her quickly. He closes the door behind him and helps Y/n to the couch. She reeks of alcohol and the smell along with the two empty bottles of vodka attest to her drunken behavior.
“You know,” Y/n straightens up, “I was so happy when Ji Hyun didn’t put your name on the guest list, but you just had to be there.”
“I’m sorry. I should’ve asked.”
Y/n stares at him for a few seconds until her hiccup kicks in and she giggles again, “You haven’t changed at all.”
Y/n runs her hand lightly on his face and her alcohol pinked cheeks turn a ruby shade as bites her lip. She kisses his cheek and Jimin looks surprised. She moves back to kiss his cheek down to his neck until a certain fabric offends her and she decides to take care of it.
Y/n wakes up with a killer headache and her bed is way warmer than usual. She regrets drinking for her fucked up low self-esteem issues. She groaned as she moved around in her bed.
“Uhhhhh. . .why did I have to drink so much last night? My head.”
“Here, drink this and take an aspirin.” a male voice says and Y/n soars up in her bed.
“Ji Hyun!?” Y/n all but yells at him, “what are you doing here?”
“I came to check up on you last night because Secretary Kim told me you weren’t feeling well and you wouldn’t. . .ummm. . .how should I put this. . .”
“What did you do?” Y/n interrupts him as she pulls her comforter towards her chest.
“I didn’t do anything,” Ji Hyun laughs, “it was all you.”
“OMG! But I was drunk, you could’ve--no, you should’ve refused!”
“Oh Lord, I don’t remember. What did I do?”
“Well for starters, you were definitely making out with neck and trying to get me out of my suit and that wasn’t even the weird part.”
“I did something stupid, didn’t I?” Y/n hid her head in shame.
“Something like that,” Ji Hyun scoffs and extends the aspirin towards Y/n, “here, you’ll feel better.”
“After all that embarrassing stuff, I’m not sure I want to feel better at the moment.”
“Oh chill. It’s not like we slept together. I mean we did but that’s besides the point.”
“We slept together as in like slept slept or slept slept,” she stares out awkwardly from her comforter.
“There’s a difference?” Ji Hyun teases her.
“I really don’t, so please elaborate.”
“Seriously?” Y/n asks before downing the aspirin pill and the full glass of water.
He laughs and takes the glass from her, “I guess both. While you were seriously trying to sleep sleep with me, you fell asleep while kissing my neck and trying--very badly, might I add--to undress me. You eventually passed out on my lap with my collar in your hands. I carried you to bed and you wouldn’t let go so I had to sleep sleep with you here.”
“Oh my god,” Y/n turns pink with embarrassment, “I’m so sorry I put you through that.”
“I’m sure. I owe you one.”
“How about brunch today?”
“Sure. Why not?” Y/n says getting out of her bed, “Let me shower.”
“What?” She replies back when Ji Hyun just stares.
“Seriously? You’ve seen me in my Spongebob night shorts and tank, drunk off my ass tryna make out with your neck and you still have a problem talking to me? You seemed quite well teasing me a few minutes ago.”
Ji Hyun laughs and sits on the bed, “it really isn’t anything. I was just thinking that I kinda took you as a satin night gown type of a girl. Never thought you would have Spongebob night shorts.”
“Satin is for special occasions,” Y/n winks and Ji Hyun giggles at her, “now let me take a shower so that we can go.”
“Well I have to change as well. Maybe we can meet each other in a bit.”
“Sounds good. Did you drive here?”
“No. My driver dropped me off.”
“Then just chill around here and we can drop by your house and then go to brunch.”
“Aight. I’ll watch some TV in the living room.”
“By the way,” turns back Ji Hyun.
“Did you already know Jimin Hyung?”
“Why would you ask me that? Did he look like he knew me?” awkwardly laughs Y/n.
“No, but you kept calling me by Hyung’s name yesterday and then you asked if I remembered you--well--you asked Jimin hyung if he knew you because you thought I was him.”
“You must be mistaken. How and why would I know your brother? Isn’t he like a kpop star? I’ve heard a lot about him,” Y/n says walking into her closet.
Ji Hyun looks at her walking away but decides to put the whole Jimin hyung fiasco behind him. Maybe Y/n was Hyung’s fan and was too embarrassed to admit that she was fangirling. He shoves his hands in his pockets and laughs to himself.
“Let’s see if I can find some Spongebob on TV today. I feel like watching some Spongebob all of a sudden.”
They were in front of Ji Hyun’s house. Y/n was wearing her hair in loose curls with a floral pencil brunch dress and thin strappy pastel pink heels. She had ditched her favorite bag for a small clutch.
“Now don’t be like that. Mom will kill me if she finds out I have such bad manners that I made a woman--especially my business partner--wait outside for me.”
“You’re mom and dad are probably home and it’ll just be awkward.”
“I’m an adult. They don’t interfere. Come on,” he says holding out his hand for Y/n. She hesitantly takes his hand and steps out of the car.
“I like your house already and I haven’t even stepped inside yet.”
“My mom will like you too. She loves anyone who loves her house.”
Y/n laughs nervously and greets the lady that opens the door.
“Yes. Madam just went to her study. Let me call her for you.”
“No need,” He smiles at the ahjumma “just take care of my guest please.”
“Of course, Sir,” the Ahjumma replies before heading to the kitchen.
“Why don’t you have a seat? I’ll be a few minutes.”
“Take your time,” Y/n says taking a seat.
Ji Hyun rushes towards the stairs to get to his room and Y/n looks around. The Ahjumma walks back with tea for Y/n, “I’ve informed madam. She’s on her way here.”
“Oh, thank you. You really didn’t have to,” Y/n smiles at the Ahjumma.
“Of course she had to,” says a voice behind her, “you’re our guest and my son’s boss now.”
“I prefer to think of him as my partner. How have you been Mrs Park?” Y/n says getting up and shaking the older woman’s hand. The woman shook her hand back and Y/n sits down with her legs crossed.
“So what brings you in today? If I knew you’d be here today I would’ve prepared some brunch today.”
“Actually I’m waiting for Ji Hyun. We’re heading to brunch. It’s our first sunday after the acquisition. Thought we should get to know each other better to continue working seamlessly in the future.”
“That’s a wonderful idea. It’s better and easier to work with people you know well.”
“Well said, Mom,” Ji Hyun says suddenly behind Y/n. He looked dashing as always in his fitted blue suit.
“Oh hi, Aduel. How are you? I didn’t even see you come in last night. Your dad and I lost track of time after you and Jimin left.”
Y/n heart skipped a beat listening to Jimin’s name. She sent out a small prayer to God to not run into him here today.
“Yeah, about that.Where ever did Hyung go?”
“He got a call from his Manager. Apparently he had an event to get to this weekend so he left.”
“I was going to introduce him to Y/n properly. Oh well,” He pouted, “I guess next time.”
“I think we should get going now,” Y/n glanced at her watch, “we’re getting late for our reservation.”
“It was nice to see you again, Mrs Park,” Y/n stood up and shook the woman’s hand again.
“See you tonight, Mom,’ Ji Hyun says kissing his mom’s cheek. And as they start to walk towards the entrance, Y/n sends a small thanks to whoever was listening for not letting her run into the one and only Park Jimin.”
“This was great,” Y/n said as they reached Ji Hyun’s house, “we should do this again sometime.”
“I’ve been with you the entire day, Ji Hyun. I’m afraid activities like this so soon will cause us the business,” laughed Y/n.
“We should do brunch every sunday. If you don’t want to spend the entire day.”
“Great. I’ll see you tomorrow morning then?”
“Actually, you’ll prolly see me in the afternoon. I have some clients to meet in the morning so I’ll try and come in the afternoon.”
“Or you can just take the day off,” smirked Ji Hyun.
“Uh huh. So that you can go home early?”
“Thought I should give it a try,” he winked.
“Nice try but I actually have an early morning tomorrow, so good night,” Y/n waved her goodbye and got back in her car.
Jimin stared at the retreating car as it went out the gate whilst talking on the phone in the balcony.
“Hello? You still there?” said a girl’s voice from the other end of the line.
“I’ll call you back, Babe,” He said hanging up his phone.
“Oh, Hyung!” yelled Ji Hyun as he looked up to the balcony, “You’re here! You should’ve told me you would be home. I wanted you to meet Y/n again.”
“I just got home, Ji Hyun-ah. Maybe next time. I’ll let you know.”
“Wait for me, then. I’m coming upstairs. We gotta have a game’s night like old times!” exclaimed Ji Hyun.
Jimin just chuckled and said, “aight. Come up and I’ll kick some ass.”
Jimin saw Ji Hyun rush inside and then he looked at the street that Y/n’s car had disappeared off to. Why now? Why after so many years? Why Ji Hyun? This isn’t fair.
