" The moon was all he had, his every rants were silently heard by his dearest moon while the moonlight hugged him tight. "
Third Person's POV
" May I come in Sir ? " Jungkook asked and once again Jimin hummed without looking at him. But Jungkook silently digested the little hit of sadness and put on his smile before entering the office room.
Few hours back, after the meeting, Jungkook thought Jimin would say something about the meeting and the file but surprisingly , Jimin didn't say anything. Jin had once said that Jimin only says anything if the thing is not right. If it's right or to the mark, he wouldn't say anything so Jungkook was relieved.
Now it was almost the end of the office hours and Jungkook has wrapped up all his works and met with few more colleagues of him. He would lie if he says that he isn't tired or isn't hungry.
Few minutes ago when Jungkook was called to meet Jimin in his office, he thought he'll get some more work and have to stay past the office time in his very first day.
" Here's the list of emails that you needed me to check . " Jimin said placing the copies on his desk and Jungkook nodded.
" Okay Sir. I'll check and - " Jungkook couldn't complete.
" You know what you have to do. You don't have to tell me. " Jimin said , finally looking up at the older man.
Did Jimin know that what storm he caused in Jungkook by looking straight at his eyes ? Jungkook's heart beats were suddenly fastening by the eye contact. Why was Jimin so beautiful !? So gorgeous !? If hypnotism was an aura then Park Jimin might have owned it all in him.
The room was dimly lit and the city lights were illuminating on the glass wall behind Jimin. He looked divinely attractive and Jungkook couldn't help but gulp.
But it was Jimin, who broke the eye contact . Jungkook didn't know that Jimin was basically struggling to shoo his restlessness away. Jimin was trying so hard to pinpoint the exact emotion that Jungkook was unfortunately making him feel. Park Jimin wasn't like this!? A stranger of two days was making Jimin feel emotions now ? Jimin couldn't even accept it himself. It took him years. Damn years to collect the lost broken pieces of himself and give himself a second chance of living... He didn't want new emotions... never. He didn't want to feel lost once again...
" A-anything else Sir ? " Jungkook asked making Jimin break out of his thoughts .
Jimin glanced at his watch for once before extending some files towards Jungkook. It was only 10 minutes left before the office time ends, others were already packing...and now Jungkook has to do this ?
May be Jimin wanted to see how Jungkook reacts now.
" These are the yearly financial records . I want you to go through them and make a report on it. " Jimin said in his monotonous voice and again turned his attention towards his laptop screen. He knew in seconds, Jungkook is going to sulk and ask something hesitatingly and mention that it's his first day and stuff... that the office time is going to end in few minutes and he has to return early... blah blah blah.
" should I make separate reports of good and bad points Sir ? And go through the purchasing and selling records as well ? " Jungkook asked enthusiastically and his smile never left his gorgeously handsome face.
The words of his assistant made Jimin look up at him with undeniable surprise. Was Jungkook for serious !? He was smiling even after all these pressure of his first day ? Jimin would lie if he says that he didn't give Jungkook extra work pressure in his very first day. Ofcourse Jimin was a workaholic himself but he cared for his employees, looked onto their well being . He was strict but never a heartless. That's what made his employees respect him so much.
" Do it if you think it'll be good. But I want everything to be perfectly done." Jimin said and Jungkook just nodded.
" Anything else sir ? I'll try to present the reports as fast as possible. " Jungkook said and Jimin narrowed his eyes. There was no way, anyone would be happy with work pressure, that too this much . Was Jungkook doing this to impress him ? To be in his good list ? Was this work loving demeanor fake ?
But Jimin also believed that a person who doesn't love his work, can never do it perfectly. Here Jungkook was doing everything so neatly and with noticeable quickness.
" I want it done by tomorrow morning Mr. Jeon. You can leave now. " Jimin said shutting off his own laptop and looking at a confused Jungkook.
Why was Jungkook looking dissapointed now !? Didn't he want to go home ?
" Leave ? I mean uhm- " Jungkook was confused and didn't know what to ask.
" Are you that dumb Mr. Jeon ? " Jimin asked leaning back on his swivel chair.
Jungkook shook his head but the confusion didn't leave his mysteriously attractive eyes.
" You can go home now and finish these works there. Was it too hard to understand ? " Jimin asked raising his left eyebrow and now Jungkook seemed to understand.
" Oh okay okay... Thank you Sir. " Jungkook smiled again and picked up the files from the table while Jimin's eyes didn't leave his employee's silhouette.
Jungkook was a prepossessing male indeed. There wasn't any bit of imperfection you can notice in him. Jimin actually was very awestruck yesterday when he first laid his eyes on Jungkook. At first he was in confusion if Taehyung recommend one of his models or something. But no, to be honest Jungkook looked more stunning than all the high fashion models Jimin has seen out there. There was something in the man's eyes which holds the epitome of power, the undeniable attraction that his eyes held...
Confusion, fear , anxiety... they doesn't suit Jungkook . Or did they ? Jimin was always a person who could see the depth of anyone. He could actually say who is like what but this Stranger male? Jimin could still hear Jungkook's confident over powering voice in the meeting room . His smiles, his walking, his way of writing, holding the pen, his way of looking, talking and everything... every single thing itched the corner of Jimin's lost heart and Jimin hated it.
But Jungkook looked like the last person Jimin should hate.
Jimin wondered why Jungkook removed his eyebrow and lip piercing and also his helix earrings. Oh, yes... because it was written in the dress code chart ? Then why did Jungkook brush his hair backwards of his head ? It wasn't written on the dress code. Wouldn't it look a lot more like him if they fall over his forehead ? His slightly curly long hair which looks more than perfect on him ?
All these unintentional thoughts that Jimin was having...he hated it.
" Be on time tomorrow. I want my work schedule ready on my table when I enter this room. " Jimin said and Jungkook nodded .
.
.
.
.
It actually took Jungkook more than twenty minutes to sum up everything and pack the files and laptop in his bag . All the office workers in this floor has already left and the high powered lights were turning off . Only the lights in the corridor were on .
Jungkook noticed that Jimin still didn't leave his office and it physically hurt him to not visit his Boss's office again... despite knowing he'll get scolded nor he had any reason to ask his new Boss that why he was still in the office and overworking.
Jungkook thought he's Jimin's executive assistant and why will Jimin do overwork alone ? Why shouldn't he stay and work as well ...?
But Jimin clearly told him to leave. Jungkook looked at his watch again when he walked out of his office finally. It was 7:45 of the evening already and Jungkook has still to do something important.
But he's Jeon Jungkook. He himself can't stop himself from doing a thing if it crossed his mind once. He didn't know when his legs started to take him towards his Boss's office.
Jungkook was going to knock on the door but for some reason, he was hesitating so badly. No one else was in the floor anymore and Jimin clearly told him to leave... what if Jimin doesn't like it if Jungkook disturbs him now ? He was in dilemma about leaving or just getting back to his office and work till Jimin decides to leave .
But in few minutes, Jungkook ended up knocking on the door and the answer came with a quite confused voice, more like a question.
" Who's it ? " Jimin asked.
" It's me Sir... " Jungkook didn't have to say his name cause his voice was enough for Jimin to know who's he.
" Come in. "
Jungkook hesitantly entered the office and saw Jimin locking his desk drawer in rush and putting the key in his pocket before looking at Jungkook.
" Sir...uhm- " Jungkook again didn't know what to say but he surely knew he was going to get some harsh remarks again and he couldn't even blame anyone for it this time.
Jimin looked at Jungkook up and down with a poker face on and narrowed his eyes.
" Why didn't you leave Mr. Jeon ? " Jimin's voice was enough to let Jungkook know that his Boss wasn't liking it a bit.
" I mean..uhm... I thought..." Jungkook was cursing himself in his head and if he could dissapear from earth right now, he would have done it.
" What did you think Mr. Jeon ? I think I clearly told you to leave ? What are you still doing here, in my office ? " Jungkook gulped down hearing each and every sentence leaving Jimin's mouth. Jungkook's Boss's voice sounded colder and irritated than ever. It was like if Jungkook had interrupted his Boss's private time or something.
Even in this situation, Jungkook couldn't help but notice how Jimin took off his dress jacket and now his black waist coat was hugging his curved figure so well... the gold buttons in his shirt were glowing under the dim light and his shirt cuffs were folded up to his forearm, his tie was hanging loosely and it looked like Jimin just washed his face messily, wetting his hair a bit too and now those wet strings of hair was sticking over his forehead...
Jungkook gulped. He was stiffening inside for some reason .
" I wanted to help you Sir... I am sorry for disturbing but I thought... I should help you with the work that you're doing. I'm your assistant and it's my duty to make ease for you... isn't it , Sir... ? " Jungkook asked with his voice unintentionally turning breathy in the end or may be it was how he actually talked.
Jimin stared at his new assistant. This is why Jungkook was giving Jimin headaches. One second Jungkook was hesitating, stuttering and the next moment his voice was hitting every bit of dominance. Yet his voice was so polite and respectful...a voice that certainly makes people feel safe.
Jimin was never a rude person. Ofcourse a strict Boss and a straight forward human but never rude... But right now and for past 35 hours, Jimin was intentionally and unintentionally becoming rude to Jungkook. He himself hated it...but he couldn't help it.
" Did I ask for your help Mr. Jeon ? You know what, you shouldn't show too much of love for work or something. It wouldn't do you any extra good by showing this attitude towards me. " Jimin said with a bitter chuckle in the end and took his bag from the table.
" Sir I am sorry but... I'm not showing off anything. " Jungkook said and turned his voice as guilty as possible in the end. He didn't want Jimin to misunderstand him now.
" You better not Mr. Jeon. People can't pretend to be something for long . Their reality will come to light soon enough even if the actor is world class. " Jimin said mockingly and may be his voice was harsher than he intended it to be.
Jungkook couldn't look at Jimin anymore as the male approached him .
" So be yourself. " Jimin said and the voice had something to make Jungkook look up and nod.
Jungkook understood that Jimin was going to leave as well so he should leave first.
" Good night Sir... " Jungkook said and left Jimin's office. He didn't know that he was holding a breath and when his eyes started to burn a little cause he was holding back his uncalled tears.
Jungkook almost ran towards the elevator not wanting to face Jimin again for few minutes. As his lift door closed, he could see Jimin walking towards his private elevator.
Even after these, Jungkook was relieved that Jimin was finally returning home . When did he start to care about his mysterious Boss so much ?
.
.
.
.
Jungkook smiled at the watchmen who bowed at him and walked out of the company gates . He was still trying to collect himself after the conversation with his Boss as he stood there when he heard a car roar .
He moved aside in a comparatively dark corner when the gorgeous ferrari speeded out of the gate. Of course, Park Jimin.
Jungkook sighed or may be uttered a silent " Drive safely...Boss. "
He took out his phone and dialed a number . It rang for few times before the other one picked up.
" Hello Mr. Lee ? ... Yeah it's me Jungkook ...no no it isn't a problem. I want to see it today.... yeah yeah... I've contacted you in rush, thanks for understanding...yeah wow. Oh you've already sent it ?.... sorry Mr Lee...no , yeah fine, I'll be there in 30 minutes... yeah. Bye. " Jungkook cut the call after the short conversation before checking the messages and finding the address sent by Mr. Lee.
The atmosphere was a little cold but the busy night streets of Seoul was absolutely a thing to see, it really amused Jungkook's eyes... despite staying in America for so many years, it felt homely here. Seoul has changed so much but Jungkook couldn't complain... didn't he change as well ? Was he the same 16 years old teenager boy who left his homeland and swore to never come back ? Now he felt like he was destined to come back here.
The very homeland that Jungkook hated all these years was actually lulling Jungkook's life itself here.
He looked at at the night sky and the moon was glowing bright, beautifully.
He loved the moon so much...it was so close to his heart. His Best friend ? Yeah. Lover ? Yeah. A selenophile person ? Yeah that's what he was.
The world can break apart... Jungkook would never stop loving His dearest Moon. Call him obsessed, call him odd for loving the Moon like that...but he wouldn't stop, even if he dies.
.
.
.
.
It was really hard for Jungkook to reach the said adress but when he finally found the apartment building , he wanted to jump out of happiness. It was also in a busy street but the place looked somehow a little calm .
" Mr. Jeon ? " An unknown man called Jungkook from behind and he turned around.
" Uhmm yes ? " Jungkook asked confused . He couldn't understand how this man knows him.
" Uh, I'm Lee Jae-wook. And If I'm not wrong, you're Jeon Jungkook right ? "
The unknown male asked and now it bought a smile on Jungkook's face.
" Uhhh my bad Mr. Lee ! I was thinking that I'm gonna get robbed again sheesh " Jungkook said it without thinking and the man looked confusedly at him.
" I'm Sorry but what ? Mr. Jeon ? "
" Oh god no no Mr. Lee ! I was just ranting though . Got a bad experience in the very first day in Seoul, still trying to recover from it . " Jungkook tried to cover up and once again cursed himself in his head.
" I'm sorry for that Mr. Jeon..." Jae-wook said sympathetically.
" It's okay Mr. Lee. Forget it. Lets see the apartment, should we ? " Jungkook said and the other nodded.
.
.
.
.
" I really like it here Mr. Lee. Such a homely atmosphere. " Jungkook genuinely said after Jae-wook showed him the apartment.
" Thanks Mr. Jeon. It'll be all yours soon. " Jae-wook said giving Jungkook a glass of water he asked for. Jungkook smiled taking it.
" But...may I know why are you - " Jungkook didn't have to complete the question as the other already understood.
" Why am I giving it on rent ? I know you'll ask this haha. I bought this apartment when I first moved out from Busan to here for my studies. Now when I'm moving to Manhattan, I don't want my dear apartment to be a ghost house. " Jae-wook chuckled and Jungkook nodded with a smile.
" So you're moving to Manhattan ? " Jungkook asked.
" Yeah . Got a job. A job which needed my years of hard work and ofcourse god gifted luck... I think I'm just too lucky to get this job. " Jae-wook said and Jungkook shook his head.
" Hard work is the main thing. " Jungkook said patting Jae-wook's back.
After some more chit chatting and stuff, Jungkook finalized that he decided to rent this apartment . But there was a problem or pressure for Jungkook even when Jae-wook wanted a reasonable amount of advance and rent price.
Jungkook currently had no money . All he had was lost but he needed this apartment. Also he didn't have much time cause Jae-wook was leaving in two days And he wanted Jungkook to move in there before that.
Jungkook needed his documents as well to sign the papers ...he felt lost but somehow thought it'll be the last time, he'll ask for Jin's help. He knew, somehow he'll arrenge the money and promised to contact Jae-wook the next day.
.
.
.
.
Jungkook took the subway back home. He was quite confident about the roads now but also was cautious the whole time. Jin called him once and insisted to pick him up from wherever he was but Jungkook declined and said he was already on his way.
It was already 9:15 of night when Jungkook entered the mansion gates. He had to walk for atleast 10 minutes after the subway cause this mansion situated in the very rich vip street where you can only see huge mansions, bungalows and imported cars passing by.
" Oh Jungkook ! You're finally back God ! You have any idea about how paranoid I was !? " Jin said as soon as Jungkook entered the drawing room.
The older was pacing back and forth for past few minutes . Even the maids were standing there in the corner, silent and worried.
" Oh hyungiee ... I told you to not worry about me . " Jungkook said smiling apologetically as he approached the older , dropping his bag down on the couch in the way.
" That doesn't help Kookah ! I felt worried sick. You're new here and your first day experiences weren't quite forgettable. " Jin said holding Jungkook's both shoulder.
" Its all in the past hyung...it wouldn't repeat and if I get into some problems... wouldn't I contact you the first ? " Jungkook asked with his day brightening smile but it didn't hide his tiredness.
Jin could easily see how exhausted Jungkook looked .
" Ahem uh. So you finally returned. " Taehyung's voice could be heard from behind them and Jungkook quickly turned around.
Seeing Jungkook's smile, Taehyung's pretending confidence shattered. This too good of a human being was still smiling at him even after Taehyung's shitty behaviour this morning.
" I did... I'm sorry for worrying you all. It wasn't intentional. " Jungkook said.
" How was your day ? How was office ? And how was your Boss ? " Jin asked smiling.
" Don't you think before all these questions...you should ask him where he was ? Exactly what work he had at this time ? " Taehyung asked with a strict voice and Jin glared at Taehyung.
" Oh ...about that... I..." Jungkook stopped abruptly and looked at both brothers.
" Is there any news from police station ? About my bags...? I urgently need my documents and so-some money..." Jungkook said and Jin scrunched his eyebrows.
" What happened Kookah ? ... I hope they'll inform us soon... you'll get back your documents but money ? Why didn't you tell me ? Why are you even hesitating ? " Jin asked and Taehyung stood silent, staring at Jungkook.
" Uh... I.. Hyung...you know... I can't stay here forever... I have to settle myself and - " Jungkook was trying to explain and now Taehyung dreaded the moments.
Taehyung was scared. Was Jungkook going to Leave their house ? Just because Taehyung lashed out on him and told him to move out ? If guilt could drown someone, Taehyung felt like it would be him. And Jin was going to be so angry on him... It was okay if Jungkook left sometimes after... when he gets his first salary and stuff and to be honest Taehyung himself started to count Jungkook as their family member so...
But now Taehyung was in water. He knew Jin was going to kill him now.
" What do you mean Kookah ? " Jin asked and glanced at Taehyung.
" I am moving out Hyung... I met the apartment owner this evening..." Jungkook said with a small smile.
" A person who loved the moon to eternity would soon place his Stella in the throne of Moon. "
