My Reality: Chapter 3

It’s Namjoon! I try to hold my excitement. No one in this office knows me and Josie know the guys. Honestly we’ve been pretty great at keeping our friendship out of the public eye, considering we met at a restaurant. I managed to contain my excitement as I approach Layla. “You know BTS?” I say most nonchalantly looking briefly at the cover of her laptop.

“What? Oh! This. Yeah they’re pretty great. I’ve been to a few of their concerts here in town.”

“Really?! Did you go to the music festival they preformed at not too long ago?”

“I did! It was one of their bests so far! Did you go?”

I can see that excitement and enthusiasm in her eyes we all get when we talk about them to fellow fans.

“Yes! We were..” I catch myself “..there front and center. Best seats in the house honestly!”

I felt bad. I didn’t necessarily lie to Layla, I just didn’t tell her the whole truth, that we were right there near the cameras in front of center stage, truly the best seats in the house.

“Oh my gosh! Lucky! What I would have done to sit in that section for just that performance. Namjoon... he is... perfection.”

“Yeah. He’s something else, isn’t he? Anyway, we’ll fangirl later! We need to catch you up on things before Chae gets back.”

I smile, thinking to myself how great it is to have something in common with a complete stranger and all of a sudden, in an instant, it’s like we’ve known each other our whole lives.

4 O’clock hits. I dismiss Layla and stay to wrap things up for tomorrow, but I couldn’t do it fast enough! I quickly make my way to clock out for the day and almost run to the lobby to meet Josie. This couldn’t wait! As usual she’s waiting for me right outside the elevator.

“Josie! Oh my gosh! You’ll never believe what happened?!”

I couldn’t hide my excitement anymore. She looks up and she can probably guess what it’s about.

“What is it?! What did he do this time?”

I halt just as I reach her.

“What?” I’m confused.

“Jin. Did he do something? Cause I promise you I had nothing to do with whatever he did this time.”

“What..? No not him. Layla!”

“Oh! What about her?”

I smile big, the kind of smile you make when you’re trying to hide excitement.

“Oh just spill already!” She exclaims in anticipation.

I wait for staff members to walk out the door before I tell her.

“Namjoon! She had him on her laptop cover and we had a moment when I asked her if she liked BTS!”

“What? No! Really?”

“Yes! Oh it was great!” I continue to tell her about the conversation as I grab her by the arm on our way out. As usual we stop by the convenance store on our way to the bus stop to grab a quick bite to eat after work.

“You have truly got to meet her.”

I say with my mouth full of food. This happens every time. I get excited about something and I won’t shut up about it.

“You’re gross.” Said Josie between bites.

“But she does sound interesting. I must meet this Layla girl.”

“Mmhmm. Should I ask her to have lunch with us tomorrow?!” I almost jump out of my seat when I make the suggestion.

“Sure. Why not?”

I make it through my apartment door and just like clockwork my phone goes off.

“Hello”

“How was work? Did you make it home safe?”

I was way too excited to remember to text him once I got off and made it home, but somehow he still manages to know exactly how long it takes me to get home.

“Oh hey! Yes I actually just got in the door and work was pretty great actually. I did have a lot of work to get done but I made a new friend!”

I start ranting off about my day for the next ten minutes before I realize I’m blabbing again, only giving him little to no time to react.

“.. so yeah. That was pretty much it for now. I’m going to invite her to have lunch with Josie and I tomorrow. But how was your day? Busy I asume?”

He starts talking about his day and everything that happened to him and the guys and all they did.

“Did you have dessert?” he asked suddenly after about 15 mins of us talking about his day.

“Actually no. I was way to excited about today to think about that. Why’d you ask?”

“Oh no reason.”

I can tell his tone is sarcastic, and just as I go to open my mouth to respond my doorbell rings.

“Jin, what did you do?”

“Why don’t you open your door and find out?”

I jump out of bed to check who, or what, was waiting for me at the door.

“Yes?” I ask through the speaker.

“Is this miss Evelyn?”

“Yes, who’s asking?”

“I’ve got a food delivery for you. I’m from Seoul Food Kitchen.”

“Oh. Yes. Come up.”

I open my door to wait for the delivery guy to reach my apartment.

“SeokJin really? You didn’t have to do this.”

“I know. But I wanted to.”

I smile like a dork.

“Well thank you.”

“No problem. I knew it’s your favorite place to eat so I figured I’d text in an order of your favorite dessert.”

“You’re to kind. Really. May I ask the reason?”

The delivery guy reaches my door and hands me the food with a note.

“Enjoy mam.”

“Thank you.”

I make it back into my apartment closing the door behind me. I set the food down on the kitchen counter and open the note.

“Reason? I don’t need one. I know it’s your favorite. Enjoy <3” I read.

“Thank you.” I managed to get the words out of my mouth though he had taken my breath away, again.

“Mind if we video call?” He asks.

“Not at all.”

I rush to get my laptop that’s sitting on my living room coffee table. It’s kind of odd that I haven’t gotten used to all this, to him, and it’s already been about two months. We’re both enjoying our treats without keeping track of time. Before we know it’s already way past our bed time. We say our goodbyes and I start getting ready for bed,excited about lunch the next day.

My morning goes on as usual, breakfast, meet Josie at the bus stop, she hands me my coffee and we chitchat about nothing at all. We get into our building and we say our see you at lunch as usual. As I reach the office door I am greeted by Layla who already has a smile on her face.

“Good morning!”

“Morning Layla. How’d you sleep?” “Oh I slept fine! Despite the neighbors dog barking at everything the wind moved I slept good.”

“That’s good! You ready to put what I taught you yesterday to practice?”

“Oh yes ma’am!”

“Now Layla, stop. I told you not to call me that. Evelyn would be alright.”

“Oh okay!”

“Say, Layla, Why don’t you come have lunch with me and my friend who works in the design department today? I’d really like for you to meet her!”

“Oh really?! That would be great! Thank you!”

“No problem! Now let’s get this work done before Chae shows up and nags at us.”

Lunch hour gets here sooner than we both expected. I grab my purse and nearly drag Layla out the door on our way to the lunch lounge where Josie is waiting. As we approach the lounge I can see Josie waiting on us with her back turned to the hall.

“Josie!” I exclaim in excitement.

She turns around and when her eyes meet Layla her mouth immediately drops opened.

“Oh my gosh. Layla?!” Josie exclaims in pleasant surprise.

“What.. y’all two know each other?!”

“Yes! We went to school together! Graduated the same class! This is crazy!”

Josie and Layla exchange hugs and greetings before all three of us run into the lounge.

“This is insane. Who would have known! And I was nervous y’all would probably not like each other at first.” I say as we reach our usual spot.

Layla and Josie seem to have been close at some point by the way they communicated with each other, like two best friends who had lost touch but didn’t have any trouble catching each other up after meeting for the first time in what probably was like forever. I watch and listen while stuffing my face, Josie doing a good job of keeping me in the conversation, making sure I didn’t feel left out.

We finish up our meals and start heading back to our designated areas, before Layla and I parted from Josie we all decided to make plans to grab dinner together after work. We’ve only got 3 hours left and Layla and I can’t seem to get our work done fast enough.

“So.. where are we going to go grab dinner?” Layla asked right as we were walking to clock out.

“Well there’s this good, cheap restaurant that’s mine and Josie’s favorite not too far from here. It’s actually on the way to our bus stop.”

“Sounds great! I’m so excited, you have no idea how much I’ve missed my friends! Well I don’t have many friends, but the few I do have are great people!”

“That’s great! I hope I’m one of those friends!”

“Well yes of course!!”

All three of us leave the building together and make our way down the street to the restaurant. The hours seem to fly by as we are all lost in conversation and before we know it it’s 30 minutes till close. Just as we’re about to leave I get a text from Mia

“Ev, you’ll never guess what just happened to me! Meet me at my place?! Please! If you have time!!”

“Sure! Be there in 20!”

“Who was that Seo...yeon..?” Exclaimed Josie, catching herself just in time not to say Jin’s name in front of Layla. My eyes widen a bit, I could feel my entire body get tense at the almost spill Josie had.

“What? No. No. It’s Mia she wants me to meet her at her house. Said she’s got something to tell me. I guess I’ll catch you guys later? Layla you stored my number right?!”

“Yes of course!”

“Great! See you guys later!”

I wave them goodbye as I start to make my way to the subway station. My mind starts to trail off wondering what it is that was so urgent Mia had to tell me. It couldn’t of been about the guys, they aren’t due back for about another week, and they are probably very busy seeing since Jin hadn’t been able to text me much all day. The train reaches my stop and just as I step out of the doors my phone goes off.

“I’m sorry, I’ve been extremely busy today. I miss you. Get some rest. Text you when I can.” I read.

And just like that I smile like an idiot, he never fails in making my heart skip a beat.

“You got here faster then I thought.” Mia said as she greeted me at her door.

“Subway wasn’t as busy as I thought it would be. What was it you had to tell me?”

“Wait. Come. Sit.” Mia said as she grabbed my arm and dragged me to the living room, her face glowing. She pushes me down on the couch and I sit there, waiting in anticipation of what I’m about to hear, staring at a wide eyed, flushed faced,smiling, glowing Mia.

“Tae!” She exclaimed after a few seconds of us just looking at each other. I really wasn’t expecting this.

“What? What about him?”

“You know how I told you my boss scheduled me to be off two days in a row on accident? Well Tae knew about it and he did the sweetest thing ever!”

I braced myself as she started to tell me about her incident with Tae, knowing I was about to be here for a while.

“He texted me yesterday around noon telling me to get ready and I was all like ‘Why?’ and he just responded with ‘You’ll see’. I didn’t know what to get ready for so all I did was dress casually. You know, just threw on some jeans, a T-shirt, and my vans. Well about an hour after he tells me to get ready I hear a knock on the door and I freak out cause I think it’s him, but then I realize it can’t be him cause they are like super busy. So I go answer the door and it’s some random dude in all black. He told me he received a call to come pick me up but he couldn’t say where he was taking me, which kinda sketched me out a bit, but then he confirmed he was with the BigHit so I grabbed my purse, locked the door, and followed him. So I’m in the car and I text Tae and I’m like ‘What’s going on?’ And he was all like ‘Can’t say. It’s a surprise.’ And I’m over here stressing, not really, it’s just I don’t know what to expect. So then the car stops and I look up and we’re AT THE AIRPORT! The driver sees the confused look on my face and he just laughs and says I have the jet waiting on me and I just look at him. Then these ladies come to take me to the jet and tell me to enjoy my flight and what not and I’m over here thinking how I didn’t pack or anything, all I have were the clothes I was wearing! Like I wish he would of said ‘Pack lightly’ or something but no! So, anyway, we’re in the air for about an hour so I get curious and look out the window only to see that we were about to land on Jeju. We land and I step out and there he is, waiting for me with Tannie! Like what?! I thought they were you know busy or something. Turns out he convinced his manager to give him a day off and let him fly to Jeju. So he takes me to this really nice restaurant by the beach for lunch. Well we kinda walk Yeontan through this really pretty garden type park to get to the restaurant cause it was like right there. It was so beautiful, Ev. We were just walking, holding hands and watching Tannie be his cute self. I got a bit chilly, but I didn’t say anything but he seemed to notice cause next thing I know he’s throwing his sweater over my shoulders. Anyway, we get to the restaurant and we eat and have an awesome little lunch date. And then after that he takes me to their place in Jeju and all we did was watch Spider-Man movies! We also played with YeonTan a bit. But, Ev, we just laid there, cuddling and watching movies and he was the sweetest. And then we end up falling asleep together and he woke me up this morning in the sweetest way possible. He even got Jin to text him the recipe to a really delicious breakfast, That he brought to me in bed! You have no idea how crazy awesome it was!” She finishes with a thriller sigh. It was as she was living the whole thing again, I could tell by the way her eyes glistened with every word.

“Oh dang.. that’s so sweet!”

“I know! Anyway I think I kept you way too long! We both got work tomorrow morning.”

“Oh my goodness! You’re right. Hey, by any chance did he mention when they were coming back?”

“Yeah, he said sometime next Friday, if all goes well. They should be home for about two weeks or so.”

“Well that’s good! Also, I made a new friend I’m dying for all of you to meet! Well Josie already knows her, but she is great!”

“Nice! Maybe this weekend? If we’re all free that is.”

“Yeah! So far I have no plans, and I don’t think Josie has anything planned. I’ll mention it to them tomorrow at lunch!”

“Okay just let me know. Text me when you get home please! Love you!”

“Love you too Mia!”

I wave goodbye and as I turn to make my way to the subway station, my mind trailing off again. Mia is so lucky, their relationship isn’t open to the public yet, but for some reason Tae manages to convince people to let him have time with Mia. He’s a sweetheart. Guess he takes after his hyungs.

“He intimidates me.”

Was the first thing Mia had said about him after the first time we actually hung out with the guys. I knew those two would end up together though, ever since she walked up to that table at the restaurant she caught Tae’s attention. The rest of us, well who knows, only time will tell.
