The Sweet Shop

Namjoon's POV

I finally bring in the last box from the moving van. My mother pays the movers and comes back inside.

"Namjoon I am going to take a nap. Why don't you go and explore the city some." she suggests.

I agreed so I decided to go and take a shower. After my shower I get dressed

"Mama i'm heading out" I yelled to her before leaving the house.

The warmth from my shower quickly fades as I walk outside back into the familiar cool air. I start walking down the sidewalk and pause at the house where the boy came from. It was a tidy looking house, white, with olive green shutters, well maintained on both levels of windows on the 2 story house.

Looks like he comes from a good house. A woman peers out a lower level window at me. I give a nervous smile in return, and quickly make my way down the street.

I'm walking for about 10 minutes when I find myself in the main hub of the city. There are a couple of shops and restaurants around. This all looks fun, but I did not bring any money with me so my choices are limited.

I make my way to a sweets shop. There is an assortment of lollipops, my favorite. Little ones, big ones, all different flavors. I pick up a small blue raspberry DumDum, and feel around my pockets, not even feeling a cent. I sigh and go to put down the lollipop when I hear someone shout.

"Hey, over there, blonde, how are you today? I haven't seen you around here before." A boy said.

He looked almost my age, maybe about 16, and had a childlike smile on his face. He had a name tag and apron indicating that he worked here. 'Jungkook' his name tag read. It was a cool name in my opinion, haven't met anyone with that name before.

"Ah, yes, I'm actually new in town, I am doing pretty good actually, thank you. How are you Jungkook?" I ask, nodding to his name tag when he is confused as to how I knew his name.

"I'm doing great Namjoon, thanks! I'm just wrapping up, I have to get to school." He takes off the colorful apron to reveal the same uniform that I saw the neighborhood boy wear. "Why are you putting the lollipop down?"

"I don't have any money on me."

"Here, take it," He grins "On me, as a welcome to Daejeon. I hope you go to my school, I'm a senior even though I am only 16, I skipped a couple grades."

"Thanks so much Jungkook! I am a senior too, but I'm 18. You must be crazy smart," I reply.

"Yeah, I guess, I am just glad I have a great bunch of friends. Speaking of, I really have to go meet them and be on time for school! I hope to see you there, enjoy the candy!" He gives another child like smile and jogs out the door.

"Bye, thanks again!" I call out after him, but all that is there is the lingering smell of sweets.
