Boss With Love (Kim Taehyung)
FOUR

"Jeon Jungkook-ssi, please come here for a moment!"

Jungkook turned his head, finding Lee Seo Jin, his division head was making a hand gesture for him to come closer. Jungkook then sped up his duties in front of the copier. He arranged all the files he had in his hand while walking quickly towards the division head table.

"This is the file sir, I'm done photocopying."

"Thank you. Can I ask you another favor?"

That just sounds like a question, but believe me it's actually a command. As Jungkook had no time to answer, Seo Jin had already thrust the dark blue map on his desk at Jungkook.

"This is the document that manager Choi requested this morning. There was a slight error but it was already revised. Please take her to secretary Park to be handed over to Kim Daepyeonim immediately. Make sure Secretary Park himself receives it before lunch."

"Okay, I understand." Jungkook replied shortly after receiving the map.

"And don't forget this afternoon Kim Daepyeonim asked the interns from our division to come to his room. Tell your other two colleagues not to be late returning to the office after lunch. Remember, Daepyeonim dislikes employees who are not on time!"

Jungkook swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. That sentence sounds simple. After all, no one likes the term 'wait', right?!

But since what is being discussed is Kim Daepyeonim who is said to be notoriously cold and assertive, Seo Jin's sentence just now sounded horror in Jungkook's ear.

"A question?" Seo Jin asked as she saw Jungkook still standing in his place.

"T-no. Excuse me. I'll deliver the documents now. Excuse me."

Jungkook made his way through the large hallway to Park's secretary room. Kim Daepyeonim's room and Park's secretary are located one floor with Jungkook's work division. It's just that it's far away. Kim Daepyeonim's room and his secretary have their own private area.

The Jungkook Division room is to the left of the employee elevator. Share the venue with Choi's manager room, meeting room, pantry, and several other employee rooms. Kim Daepyeonim and his secretary's room were to the right of the employee elevator, next to the waiting room and no other room after.

From a distance Jungkook sees two of his comrades, Jang Ye Eun and Yeo Jin Goo come out of the elevator while carrying a pile of files in each of their hands.

"Where are you going?" Ye Eun asked when she was in front of Jungkook.

"Introduce documents for Park's secretary." Jungkook answered. "Oh yes, said Mr. Lee, we should not be late returning to the office after lunch. We have to get to Kim Daepyeonim's room in time." Jungkook continued and immediately got a nodding response from his two colleagues.

"We don't have lunch together?" Jin Goo asked as Jungkook walked away.

"Send a message. Tell me where. I'll catch up." Jungkook replied as he waved his hand. Marking their conversation should be over by then.

According to what Jungkook heard, Daepyeonim and his secretary rarely use employee lifts and more often use special elevators adjacent to their rooms.

It could be a long matter if Jungkook arrived there but they both had been hunted to go to lunch using a special elevator. Mr. Lee can grumble or get sudden hypertension if Jungkook can not complete a trivial task like this.

Not long until Jungkook arrived at a large table beside a special elevator that is usually used by the company officials. Jungkook believes it's Park's secretary's desk. But Jungkook's eyebrows immediately furrowed when he realized there was no one there.

Spontaneously he saw a watch on his wrist. There are still ten minutes before lunch. It should not be too late.

Jungkook then turned around and found a large door that was right in front of a desk lined with Park, which he believed must be Kim Daepyeonim's room. The big door opened slightly, making Jungkook suddenly relieved. He sure isn't too late. Secretary Park must have just walked in there and forgot to close the door again. Jungkook decided to stand in front of Park's secretary to wait for the man to come out.

Seven minutes passed but Park's secretary hasn't shown up yet. Jungkook is starting to feel weird. Is secretary Park really inside?

Or maybe not?

After a long battle, Jungkook decided to approach the big door. He realized, peeking at the room of his own boss is a silly thing that should not be done an employee. But just as ridiculous if he just waited like a fool there when not necessarily the person he was waiting for was inside.

And I don't know what demon possessed him, so Jungkook instead pushed his body into the room.

And,

BOOOOM!!!

Jungkook heard the sound of a bomb exploding very loudly. Nah! not a bomb in the real sense. It was a visible bomb that exploded in his heart. Make his vital organs pump blood throughout the body with a chaotic frequency. His chest was beating strongly, making both of his hands break out in cold sweat. The whole joint seemed to shake violently.

Jungkook just saw something he shouldn't have seen.

Across there, right in front of his eyes, two grown men were Ahh! Jungkook was confused as to how to call it.

Making love, maybe?

A man standing on his waist at the desk was unaware of Jungkook's presence because his eyes were tightly closed. He seemed to be holding his breath and also anxious.

While the other man squatted in front of the man who was closing his eyes.The man was also unaware of the arrival of Jungkook because of his position that turned his back to Jungkook. The man was doing something somehow, which was clearly their position was very indecent according to Jungkook.

What the two grown men did in the office was very untrue, but Jungkook's whereabouts were just as wrong. So the first thing Jungkook has to do is get out of there as soon as possible.

But how?

Jungkook's legs can't be moved.

Even his pair of brazen ears actually work sharper to hear the dialogue of two men who are about fifteen steps in front of him.

"Be careful Jimin-ah, I'll kill you if I hurt my future!" Said the man standing still tightly shut his eyes.

Jungkook glared, "Jimin? so the guy who was squatting there was secretary Park? And that stand means K-Kim Daepyeonim?!" his inner.

Jimin chuckled then before long he breathed a sigh of relief. “Completed.”

Daepyeonim looked down at his perfectly closed zipper and smiled with satisfaction.

And again the smile looked wrong in Jungkook's eyes.

“What did I say? For urgent matters like this, I am the expert.” Said Jimin and this time in a louder voice, making Jungkook almost choke his own saliva.

"Did he just say? U-Urusan urges?!" Jungkook clenched his left hand shut his gaping mouth wide. No, even he had bitten his hand as well now. He was completely shocked until the map on his right hand slumped. But he hurriedly regained his senses and tried to recapture his fallen map so as not to touch the floor.

But it was the wrong decision. Because his haphazard movements actually made his butt nudge the antique urn that is next to the inner door.

There is no slow motion like in Korean dramas of course. Jungkook's world is real. And it was not until three seconds that the urn behind him fell, clashing violently with the coldness of the marble floor. A shattering and deafening sound filled every corner of the room, making the two men standing across from Jungkook jump in shock and lock Jungkook's body which was still sculpted with a gaze that was difficult to interpret.

"Oh God, save me... . Please."

💜💜💜

Jimin puts his phone in his pants pocket after disconnecting his phone with Namjoon. He turned around and found Taehyung sitting on the sofa, having a dialogue with three apprentices from the planning division sitting in front of him.

Jimin's gaze then turned to Jeon Jungkook, one of the apprentices who sat quietly watching Taehyung talk. Though Jimin knew that the young man was trying to cover up his nervousness.

Jimin approached, stood next to Taehyung and took a step back, showing his respect for his now superior friend.His gaze returned to Jungkook who had just turned his face naturally. Jimin knew the young man had just stolen a glance at him.

"What's wrong with that young man?"

To be honest, Jimin thought badly about Jungkook. Since the attack that Taehyung experienced several times, Jimin became easily suspicious of everyone around his best friend.

And Jungkook is among the new people to suspect. How did the young man suddenly exist in Taehyung's study and break the urn without being able to give a reasonable reason.

Jimin believes there is something Jungkook is hiding and he needs to know what it is.

"All right, I think that's enough. Hope you adapt quickly. And I'm looking forward to meeting you again in the future with your status as a permanent employee of HOJIN HILL."

Taehyung's closing sentence unfolds Jimin's daydream about Jungkook. At once made the two apprentices in front of him blush, smiling expectantly. Except Jungkook of course. The young man was smiling. But his smile seemed strange and forced.

And Jimin knows it.

💜💜💜

"What?! Why would that be?" Taehyung seemed surprised by Jimin's telling him. Now only the two of them live in Taehyung's room. The three apprentices had returned to work a while ago.

"That's what Namjoon Hyeong said on the phone. Yoon-gi Hyeong also agreed. Besides, we don't know who's going to eliminate you, Tae. It's better if you hide first."

"Those fugitives, why should I hide?"

"Come on Tae, it's for your safety."

Taehyung was silent.he still seemed to object.

"It won't be long, Tae. I promise." Jimin is still trying to convince.

"Then what about the company? How about..." Taehyung paused for a while, remembering the person he worried most about if he wasn't around. "...Harabeoji?"

"I'll keep reporting to you every day. So you can still monitor everything even if you don't come to the office. Yoon-gi Hyeong also promised to help Harabeoji stay safe while she was in the hospital. Besides, their target isn't Harabeoji, Tae. But you!"

Taehyung let out a very long breath. It was so hard the last days he went through. But he knew he still had to make a decision. He must not be selfish when all his friends are fighting for his salvation.

So with a long breath once again, Taehyung finally decided.

"Where should I go?"

💜💜💜

"Our Daepyeonim turned out well huh? Strict but sweet talk.. Although it's cold but he's cool.bla.bla.." Jungkook was mumbling while kamit was alone in the pantry mimicking Ye Eun's words just now on the sidelines of their work that was almost done.

Jungkook's lips piqued considering how Ye Eun and Jin Goo praised Kim Daepyeonim and Park's secretary all-out after their brief dialogue earlier this afternoon.

Actually Jungkook did not deny the fact that his Daepyeonym was almost perfect as a man. The secretary of Park. They are a combination of clop if juxtaposed as friends.

Uhh! Forgetit.

Jungkook no longer believes the rumors of friendship between the two of them. How can I believe that both his eyes caught the two men doing far more than a pair of friends did.

Jungkook poured a small pack of red ginger into his tea while recalling what Jin Goo said just before he escaped into the pantry.

"Daepyeonim and secretary Park have the right chemistry as a pair of best friends. The one type tsundare, the one sweet and loyal friend. How about we make our friendship like theirs? What do you think Jungkook? hm?"

Jungkook shuddered in horror remembering Jin Goo's sentence.

"What friendship?! If you'd seen what I saw this afternoon, you'd know they weren't actually friends. But dating." Muttered Jungkook again then sipped his ginger tea calmly.

"Who's dating?"

Jungkook immediately spouted ginger tea that he drank to dirty the pantry table in front of him.

He turned around and found Park Jimin leaning against the pantry door while crossing his arms in front of his chest.

"When was he there? Did he hear everything? You idiot! You idiot! You idiot!"

Jimin stepped in and stood beside Jungkook, leaning his hips on the pantry table. He took out a handkerchief from his pants pocket and gave it to Jungkook. The young man who still looked in shock received it with a puzzled look on his face.

Jimin pointed at Jungkook's lips at a glance and immediately made the young man aware, then cleaned his wet mouth with a handkerchief that Jimin gave.

"So, who did you call dating?" Ask Jimin again with a face that he deliberately made serious.

Jungkook. He pretended to be deaf while cleaning the wet pantry table because of his actions. He didn't even realize he was wiping the dirty table with Jimin's handkerchief.

The one with the handkerchief swerved, but then he resigned. Though he just wanted to tell Jungkook to wash his handkerchief and return it when it's done. If this is the case, he will be ilfeel.

Jimin nodded once more. Forget about handkerchiefs first. Actually, Jimin came to deliberately want to talk to Jungkook alone.

The reason is, how long ago Jimin suddenly remembered the last activity he did with Taehyung just before Jungkook broke the jar with his face was amazingly surprised.

Jimin immediately guessed one conclusion that might have resulted in this rabbit-toothed young man in front of him desperately avoiding him since last afternoon. And Jimin's conclusion was, uh,

Jungkook is misunderstanding.

That's why Jimin intends to go to Jungkook directly to his division of work nearing work hours like now, so that he can talk to the young man without disturbing his activities. But not yet until, from a distance Jimin saw the young Jeon into the pantry with a face cobbled. Jimin changed his mind and chose to quietly follow the jungkook all the way to the pantry.

From Jungkook's murmur that Jimin had heard since the young man went in, he made Jimin more convinced that his guess was right. Jungkook is misunderstanding him and Taehyung. But anyway, Jimin still wants to hear it directly from Jungkook's lips.

"Related to answer? I was the one who asked." Ask Jimin again after a long silence.

"All right then. Looks like you'd rather be asked directly by Kim Daepyeonim." Continue Jimin while grinning. And Jungkook is smart enough to know he's being threatened.

Jimin was just about to step away when Jungkook suddenly held his arm firmly.

"I won't say." Jungkook said with hunting breath.

I swear, Jungkook just wants to settle his internship peacefully. He does not want to disappoint Yoo Ra who has struggled to pay for college, even when the girl also has to save for the wedding expenses. If this is why Jungkook failed, he'd rather kill himself.

"I promise I won't tell anyone that you two are actually g-gay." Jungkook regained confidence with his last word that was almost inaudible.

Jimin glared in disbelief. He knows that Jungkook misunderstood him. But he did not expect that the young man actually dared to address him with that sevulgar.

“So please let me work quietly. Please!” Jungkook seemed to be begging with glazed eyes.

Jimin frowned seeing Jungkook behave like that. Urung had his intention to hit Jungkook's head who had dared to call himself arbitrarily. Seeing the young man's teary eyes made Jimin almost let go of Jungkook just like that. But the rabbit-toothed young man who was even taller than him uttered a sentence that made Jimin change his mind.

"I'll do whatever you want. Really am. I promise!"

"really?" Well, Jimin has been tempted by Jungkook's offer.

"yes."

"whatever?"

"Anything!"

And Jimin now smiles satisfied because he just got a fresh breeze to launch his plan.
