Chapter 12: Clumsy



"Even the strongest feelings expire when ignored and taken for granted"






"You've changed a lot. Or did I mistaken recognizing you?"




Like a silent huntress, anger sneaks into me through my festive mood, composing me mad like a Schrodinger's cat stuck in its box. The pros and cons of numerous ways of revenge were playing in my mind. That was the only thing that was exactly helping me to maintain my cool.




"Chim, have you seen my phone?" I ask Jimin as the only thing which was circling my brain was to check the CCTV. He didn't actually witness my expression right now as he was really putting a lot of effort into making breakfast. Or else he would bombard me with questions.




"Maybe on the couch or somewhere."He responds without glancing at me as I just nod already engrossed in hunting for my phone. As soon as I got my phone, I check the CCTV. But it wasn't working anymore.




"Perfect."I plainly blurt out of sarcasm as I'm out of terms because of the intense frustration raising in me like a volcano ready to explode. Taking deep breaths, I stare randomly at my phone which was arrogantly igniting the time. Abruptly the reality thumps into me, making me jolt up from the couch.




"Shoot!I'm late!"Bellowing the harsh truth, I speedily head towards my room to get ready as soon as possible. Curses were swapping around my brain like stinging bee.




"Yah! I am making breakfast for us." Incredulity strapped in his voice as he yells from the kitchen." And, you didn't mention you have work today?" He started nagging continuously while on the other hand, I was rushing myself to get ready.




After a few minutes, I concluded preparing myself to look at least like a decent human being.But unfortunately, I wasn't looking decent but I was looking human. So as long as I'm human, it's okay.




Maybe.




After seconds of convincing myself in front of the mirror, I stepped out of my room.




"Well.Surprise!Chim. I've to go to work today."Raising my both hand in the air, I compose a fake exciting face while Jimin just pouts at me with his puppy eyes.




"Ugh."Slumping my shoulders a bit, I walked towards him as he just gazes down.I know how hard he was working on making breakfast. And I also wish I could enjoy breakfast with him. But bad luck for me, I have work now.




Cupping his face with my palm, I make him face me but he just keeps his gaze down.




"Ah!Chim...please...don't act like this." I implored him as he finally looks straight into my eyes. The soft gleam of his explicit eyes corrupted the poet and utopist.




"Go away.You don't even know how much effort I was putting in making breakfast. You don't even care." He blabbers on and on, proving the fact of his effort until I wrapped my arms around his waist for a split second.



"Let's continue this later, okay?" Before he could say something, I rushed out of my home but at that very moment, I could picture his defeatant sigh towards me.

The small walk towards my cubicle was like a walk of shame as other workers were just sending me those familiar 'warning' glare. While others were yawning and sighing being adapted with my usual schedule of retardation. My workmates were throwing death glare and those "so done" look while I was just passed them my utmost sorry smile.



As soon as I reached my cubicle, a pale figure with blonde hair caught my eyes as he was searching something leaning towards my table.But somehow he could sense my presence as he straightens himself facing me.



"Good morning, Yoongi" I politely greet him as he just leans against my desk.



"No more good. Boss called you." He spat out bitterly with a sarcastic grin.



"Great." I utter with irritation lacing me as I just let my glow down while placing my stuffs in my desk.

Soft clicks of my heels was echoing through the marble floor with each step I take. Mind was full of regrets and unnecessary curses towards myself. Reaching the door, I took a deep breath. But before I could ask permission to get in, a voice proved it needless at the moment.



"Come in."Hearing the stern voice, I mentally prepared myself for whatever was going to happen as I step in.



With his usual bossy aura, he was faced towards a grey and ivory artistic photograph with silver frames which was placed behind his desk.



"Do you know what thing you are good at even though you hate it?"He asks as he turns his face towards me. One leg crossing on other while he just leans more on the head rest of the seat, quirking his right eyebrow.







Kim Seok Jin deserves to be the most handsome human in the whole world with his extravagant attitude and looks. Aside from that, he's humble,funny, sarcastic and loves to make dad jokes.






And this very human, is my boss.




"Being late." He asserts with a sheepish laughter pressing in between his cheeks.Being awkward, I just tend to smile along.But before I could do that, his face was already stern and straight, void of emotion.



"How was it?" The laughter which he was trapping earlier in himself was slowly showing in his face.



"Hey! I made that only for you."He snapped but soon after he was all giggly in his own statement.



"They say good things take time.That's why maybe..." I emphasized the last word a little longer observing his reaction. His smile dropped as the anger was splitting in his face.



"You annoying punk. You ruined my mood. Get back to work." He slightly snaps at me as the satisfaction gets a hold of my face, forming a bright smile.



Being all proud with myself, I made my way out of there. But the thoughts of the events earlier today was blemishing my mind. Soon after, I was deep in thinking the possibilities of sender of the bouquet and the strange note.




Blinding by this thoughts, I was making  my way, not being aware of my surroundings.





Then I bumped to something hard before my brain could process anything.
