Mirae's Point of View

The morning welcomed me with a ray of sun shining pass my window pane. The melodious singing of the birds made me shift as I slowly open my eyes and stretch my limbs. I woke earlier than my alarm. Before leaving the bed, I reached for my phone and checked my twitter account. I'm actually not a fan of social media, but when I heard that the boys have Twitter, I downloaded it and made an account. I checked their Twitter account and saw that they have more than a thousand followers.

"I'm pretty sure this will increase very soon." I mumbled after pressing the "follow" button.

After that, I stood up and fixed my bed before doing my daily routine. I then went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for myself. And while I'm cooking, I played some of their pre-debut songs and their current songs from their newly released album, 2 Cool 4 Skool. Have I told you that I'm really a fan of hip-hop and rap?

"I just can't stop...." I hummed to the song being played by my playlist, as I transfer the chicken sandwich I made, inside my tupperware.

After that eventful morning of mine, I took the bus and went to the café. I just want to see how Jihyeon is doing. As I enter, I can already hear some rattling of the stainless cups from the counter.

"Ow!" Jihyeon shrieked after she bumped her head on the counter's edge, making me chuckle upon her clumsiness. "Mirae?" She suddenly said before turning around to finally see me, standing by the corner.

"Good morning, Hyeonie!" I greeted and she poutingly walked over me and gave me a hug.

"Ugh! How did you even get the hang of waking up and cleaning this café, every freaking morning?" She whined as she hug me tightly.

"I can conclude that you're struggling." I snorted, causing for her to pull away with a sulking face. "Which is why I'm here! I know you will need a helping hand." I smiled and placed my bag on one of the tables.

I saw the side of her lips crawl upwards. What a cutie. I went over the counter and took the apron before I started to prepare the coffee beans. Meanwhile, Jihyeon focused on cleaning the tables and sweeping the floor. After I finished with my first task, I went to the pastries and prepared them on the display. I then took seven streusel bread, also known as 소보로빵 (soboroppang), and placed them on a nice paper bag. I've known that they are strict on diet, but I'm glad that they're allowed to eat the pastries and breads that I sometimes make for them.

"Oh my, thank you so much for helping me, Raeya. I really needed that, especially when your shift was passed to me. I've heard that our manager might hire someone as your replacement." Jihyeon informed, so I nod at her to show attentiveness. "Anyways, how's your new job as a mentor? I didn't have the chance to ask you because Hangyeol kept on getting your attention last night." She hissed as she cross her arms, and it made me smile to remember how bubbly Hangyeol was while he shows me his drawings.

"Well, it wasn't bad. I had a little bit of an argument with their leader at first, but now, it's all good. Their not really that hard to teach as of now, since before I started as their mentor, the steps were already learned. My real battle will start when they release their next album." I answered while she hum, nodding slightly.

"I saw their performance and I can say that you're mentoring handsome men." She smirked. "Don't you think that it will be hard to not like atleast one of them?"

"Like a crush?" I asked.

"Yeah? But, you know, a little deeper. I mean, that Jimin guy is so cute and sexy at the same time. Can you refer me to him?" She snickered, brows wriggling.

"Don't even think about getting in a relationship with that guy, or any of them." I uttered as I roll my eyes. "And to answer your question, it's not easy to work with bunch of males with such visuals and talents. But as a professional, I must act one too. Work is work, so I'm always putting in mind that I went there to earn money and experience, not to earn love." I continued before fixing my things and preparing to leave.

"Well then, I'm hoping the best for you, my dear friend. But can you please?" She pouted and used her stupidly cute eyes, which she knows I can't deniably resist.

"Fine, I'll tell Jimin about you, so work diligently!" I groaned and earned a giggle and hug from her.

"You're the best! I love you, Mirae." She cooed.

"Yeah, yeah. I love you too, Jihyeon." I chuckled and finally got out of her tight hug.

I then bid her goodbye as I walk out of the café. I now walked my way towards the company building. Just like the usual setting that I've noticed, some crew and staff greets me with a smile and bow, that I always reciprocate with mine. It only took me a few minutes to reach the practice room, and when I entered, a loud collection of laughter welcomed me. It's Jimin, Taehyung, and Jungkook, who are playing hide and seek with a blindfold tied on Taehyung's eye level. When Jimin saw me, he motioned me to stay quiet, so I nodded and stood still.

"Yah! If I found out that you guys are moving, I'll kick your butts." Taehyung warned as he ascend further to where Jungkook is.

I watched them play with a smile on my face, until Taehyung finally found them both. The moment their game was done, they let me sit on the corner and then joined me. I was busy checking my backpack until I realized that they're all staring at me.

"Aren't you guys, going to play again?" I asked, curiously.

"Aren't you forgetting something, noona?" Taehyung stated with a frown.

"I don't think so." I answered innocently and it made them grimace, then I realized that they might be pertaining to yesterday's events. "I guess, I forgot one." And it that's when their expressions brighten.

"You weren't there yesterday, noona." Jungkook pouted. "I was so excited to tell you about my performance."

"Aw, Jungkookie. I'm really sorry about that. I went back home to submit me and my classmate's research proposal. But don't you worry, because I have something for all of you." I beamed and reached for the gifts that I bought yesterday.

I saw some nice caps and beanies in the mall so I ended up buying one for each of them. I handed the maknae's gifts first and I'm so glad to see their reactions.

"Wow! Thank you, noona." Jungkook giggled while checking himself with the cap worn on his head.

"I really love it, noona. Thank you for the gift!" Taehyung happily said with his adorable box smile flaunting beautifully.

"Noona, I'll always use this. Thank you so much!" Jimin beamed as well.

"You're very welcome! You guys deserve it, especially seeing how you've been working hard to achieve your debut. Anyways, where are the rest?" I asked as I noticed that it's just the four of us.

"Oh, they are called by our manager. We are told to wait for them here so we spent our time in playing." Taehyung explained and the two nodded in affirmation.

I just hummed and smiled, before checking my bag. After a few minutes, they later on insisted me to play hide and seek with them. Though I refused a thousand times, they used their charms on me to make me agree. Unfortunately, they're too irresistible.

Author's Point of View

As the giggles and laughter of the maknaes and Mirae surrounds the practice room while they play hide and seek, the four other members are now walking along the hall, heading to the practice room. They had a meeting regarding their plans for their upcoming album, even though they just had their debut. While they were walking, Seokjin decided to break the silence.

"Do you think Mirae arrived already?" He asked, glancing at the three male with him.

"I don't know, hyung, but I think she's already at the practice room." Hoseok replied, "Why did you ask?" He added.

"Nothing," Seokjin shrugged. "I just thought of her all of a sudden." He confesed, earning the attention of Yoongi and Namjoon.

"Do you like her?" Namjoon asked, eyes focused on the folder he is reading but his mind is somewhere else.

"Romantically, no. She's like a little sister to me. Why? Do you like her, Namjoon?" Seokjin snickered.

"No, I don't like her." Namjoon quickly answered, but Seokjin thought otherwise.

"Why not? She's beautiful, caring, sweet, talented, and intelligent. She's like a complete package." Seokjin teasingly described, as he kept his smile to see Namjoon's expression.

"I like her." Yoongi suddenly interjected, gaining their attention, which made them to stop walking and face Yoongi who eventually stopped walking too. "What?" He asked, then faced Seokjin, "Like what you said, she's like a complete package. Who wouldn't adore someone like her? I like her, that's it." He explained, then walked pass them.

They were left speechless after hearing Yoongi's confession. But Namjoon was the one who recovered quickly and continued walking. The rest followed, but as they walk, they thought of what Yoongi said. They're not sure if he is just joking or if he is serious with what he said. They hoped that he is joking, if not, he better stop his feelings for her. Some things aren't meant to be together.
