//flashback, continued//

-seven hours after meeting Namjoon-

So I found a small job! After walking around for several hours I stumbled across a small bakery that was on the outskirts of the city. It was basically in between the borderlines of the slums and the actual city.

I got attacked by another person during my job hunt, but I learned to retaliate a little. On my way home, I was attacked three more times. By the third time, I pretty much mastered striking back and getting away.

I mapped out the route I took to get to the bakery as well.

I guess it was a fulfilling day... I refuse to be happy about it though. I don't want to get used to such an edgy lifestyle..

I finally got back to my claimed shed, plopped on top of my two blankets, and passed out from exhaustion.

-the next day-

I'm assuming I woke up early, judging from the cold, brisk air and the cloudy, darkened sky.

No time to waste. Work starts today so might as well get that over with, then find Namjoon.

I made haste to the bakery, avoiding any fights with the few people who were awake.

*at the bakery*

A little bell rang when I opened the door.

Me: "excuse me? It's Jungkook, I'm here for work today."

The tall, brawny man who I saw yesterday walked up to the counter to greet me.

"Oh you're here early Mr. Jeon!"

Me: "you can just call me Jungkook, Mr. Changmin. Is this a bad time?"

Mr. Chang: "oh not at all! There's plenty for you to do here. This place should be cleaned up well for the customers, but unfortunately I was short-handed so it has gotten quite dirty."

Me: "leave it to me, sir! I'll work extra hard!"

Mr. Changmin smiled down at me and nodded firmly. He showed me all the supplies necessary for the cleaning work he set out for me to do.

First, I cleaned up the shop area, where customers would give their orders.

I was almost finished cleaning the kitchen in the back when some customers started coming.

Mr. Chang: "hey, Jungkook! I need to get some stuff from back there, take charge here at the counter!"

Me: "right away, sir!"

I rushed into the shop and called for the next person in line to take their order.

Few it's not too busy right now.

There was only three customers in the shop:
•A man who was waiting beside the counter. He was probably waiting for Mr. Changmin to get something frokn the back.
•The second person was another man, whose order I just took.
•The third person was a girl, about my age. She was sitting down on one of the chairs, patiently waiting.

By the time I finished analyzing the customers, I had already finished packing the second man's order.

Me: "here you are, sir! Thank you for waiting. Your total is $12.50."

The man handed me the money, and I carefully counted it.

Ok that's $12.50. Good.

Me: "thank you, please come again!"

As the man left, Mr. Changmin had returned to the front,  handed the other customer a package, and received money from him.

Mr. Chang: "please come again! Ok, next."

The girl got off the chair and walked up to the counter, tip-toeing to see over it.

She's short.. ;3; she's cute...

Girl: "my name is Kim HaEun. I was hoping to work here, if you would hire me."

I looked up at Mr. Changmin with a hopeful smile. Noticing, he nodded down at me.

Mr. Chang: "sure, Ms. Kim! I am in need of employees. Glad to have you here."

HaEun smiled contently.

HaEun: "thank you, um... sir?"

Mr. Chang: "*laughs* I'm your boss, Changmin. When would you like to start work?"

HaEun: "today would be great!"

Another customer entered the bakery.

Mr. Chang: "ok then. Jungkook, quickly give her an overview of how to work at the counter. When you're done with that, I'd like you both to finish cleaning the back."

Me: "yes, sir, right away."

- 4 hours later-

HaEun and I finished cleaning the back after about an hour and a half. She worked very efficiently, too. We worked two and a half more hours at the counter, and answering phone call orders.

Mr. Chang: "Jungkook, you've worked enough for today. Here's your pay for the work you've done."

He offered me an envelope, which I gladly took.

Me: "thank you, sir. I'll be here tomorrow."

I bid a quick farewell to HaEun, then made my way home. I got halfway when I remembered something important.

Right, Namjoon! I need to find him!

I continued walking until I saw two men playing a game of checkers on a short table.

One of them should know where he is.

I carefully approached them.

Me: "excuse me?"

Both looked at me, frowning. One of them grunted as a response.

Me: "do either of you know where I could find someone named
G.o.D?"

The men exchanged suspicious glances, and began fidgeting in their seats.

Me: "oh, I guess you don't know-"

Everything in sight got blurry, and I blacked out.
