Chapter 7
Words: 951

Yn was sitting in the garden's pool side. The words of her mother still ring in her mind.

"Young Master Jungkook is a very formal person, and he rarely allows anyone to address him so informally."

What was that? According to her mother, he doesn't allow anyone to address him informally but-he said himself that she needs to call him by name only.

"You will address me by my name, but not 'Master', 'Sir', or any other formal title."

"I want you to feel comfortable around me, Yn."

She still remembers each and every rule as well as all the words he said. Also, she heard that he is a ruthless or cunning type of man.

Then, what did she see? Was he for real?

She saw him as the sweetest boy ever where he is not that. That's what everyone says!

Yn decides to shift her focus away from the thoughts about Jungkook and tries to get herself busy by helping other maids.

She moved back in the mansion and headed towards the head maid. To get herself some work.

As she approached the head maid, she could see the elderly woman busy. The head maid looked at Yn, her eyes twinkling with a hint of warmth.

"Ah, Yn, dear, I'm glad you're here. We could use an extra pair of hands. Would you mind helping me with the laundry? We have a lot of washing to do today."

Yn nodded eagerly, grateful for the distraction. She began to help the head maid, her hands moving quickly and efficiently as she took a few clothes. The head maid watched her while grabbing a few clothes too.

"Thank you, dear. Let's move to the laundry room and get these clothes washed," the head maid said, her voice warm.

Yn is happy to help the head maid with the laundry, and together they make their way to the laundry room.

As they walked, the head maid chatted with Yn about the daily routine of the mansion, telling her about the various tasks that needed to be done and the schedules of the other maids.

Once they reached the laundry room, Yn and the head maid set to work, sorting and washing the clothes with ease.

The sound of running water and the gentle hum of the washing machine created a soothing background noise, also, the voice of Yn and Head Mead was audible too.

Suddenly, the head maid stopped what she was doing and turned to Yn with a curious expression. "Yn, dear, can I ask you something?"

Yn looked up from the clothes she was sorting and met the head maid's gaze. "Yes, of course, aunt. What is it?" she asked, her voice polite and curious.

The head maid hesitated for a moment, as if choosing her words carefully. "I was wondering, Yn, how do you find working for Young Master Jungkook?"

"Oh, he's been very kind to me, aunt," she replied, trying to sound neutral. "I'm just grateful to be working here."

The head maid's eyes seemed to bore into Yn's, as if searching for something more. "I see," she said, her voice warm. "Well, if you ever need any advice or guidance, you know where to find me, dear."

Yn nodded her head, feeling gratitude towards the head maid. "Thank you, aunt. I appreciate your kindness," she said, her voice sincere.

As they continued to work on the laundry, Yn couldn't help but wonder what the head maid had meant by her offer.

Yn's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of footsteps outside the laundry room. The door swung open, and one of the other maids, Soo-jin, entered the room.

"Mam, I'm sorry to interrupt, but Young Master has requested Yn's presence in his room," Soo-jin said, her voice nervous.

"What does he want to see me about?" Yn thought, nodding her head she washed her hands and left for his bedroom.

As she made her way to Jungkook's room, Yn's mind raced with thoughts. Had she done something wrong? Was he going to give her more tasks to complete?

Or perhaps he had seen her working with head mead as according to his rules for Yn, she was only allowed to do his work.

When she arrived at the bedroom, Jungkook was sitting on the cough in his room near the window. He looked up as Yn entered.

As their eyes met, Yn felt a jolt of electricity run through her body. Jungkook's gaze was piercing, as if he could see right through her.

"Ah, Yn," Jungkook said, his voice low and smooth. "I want to discuss something with you."

Yn nodded, her throat dry. "Yes, Jungkook?" she replied, trying to sound calm.

Jungkook's eyes seemed to bore into hers, as if searching for something. "I've been noticing that you've been helping the head maid with her tasks," he said, his tone neutral.

Yn's heart sank. Had she done something wrong? Was she in trouble?

"I-I was just trying to help, Jungkook," Yn stammered, her voice barely above a whisper. "I didn't mean to do anything wrong."

Jungkook's expression remained neutral, but his eyes seemed to glint with amusement. "Oh, no, Yn." He said, his voice with sarcasm.

"I just wanted to remind you that, as my maid, your primary responsibility is to me. Not to the head maid, also not to the other servants, but to me."

She bit her tongue. "Yes, Jungkook," she replied, her voice stiff. "I understood."

Jungkook nodded and told her to go back and use her free time.
