As the rays of the golden sun made past my room and spread across the rug, I woke up, shifting myself into a sitting position, stretching my arms out, reminiscing yesterday's events.
"Ahhhh....yesterday was such a great day...."
I yawned as vivid images from yesterday floated in my head.
I still couldn't make myself believe that it was real, it actually happened, and that it wasn't a make-believe daydream. It was an uncanny encounter so it excited me, but I know I shouldn't expect much.
I grabbed my phone from the nightstand, a call from an unknown number. And that too who could be calling me this early in the morning.
Usually, I don't intend on taking calls from unknown numbers but for this one, I somehow felt the sudden compulsion to pick it up. Pushing away my vague thoughts, I ended up taking it:
"Hello!?" I talked into the phone, enforcingly
"Greetings! Am I talking to Ms. Yi?"
I could recognize that the voice belonged to a professional, so it wasn't an inessential call, rather it could be cardinal. So I replied in a bright manner
"Well yes, you are! "
"Okay! This is Daichi Sawamura, the manager and producer of The Orions. This call is regarding a caretaker for the members, since you applied for the job, This call is regarding your confirmation. Will you able to indulge in a meeting today?" He questioned in a monotonous tone.
"Uh..." When did I apply for a job like that? I took a deep breath and continued, trying to sound as normal as possible "Definitely sir, please proceed" I had to sound professional and of knowledge as well.
"Great meet us at the company building at 7 pm sharp!!!" He said and ended the call even before I could say
"Alright-"
Oh, my God! I can't believe this!! This is the best day of my life!! The universe is on my side for sure, treating me so well. But out of the blue why did Daichi Sawamura contact me? I shrugged off the thought, not wanting to think much over a happening which is so great. Whatever happens for the best, I thought to myself and went off to continue my morning routine.
Time flied by quickly, I bought the grocery for the house, cleaned my house, watered the plants, and tried cooking something for myself but to no good, I suck at cooking.
I didn't realize the amount of time I had spent on unnecessary house chores
I grabbed my phone checked the time and horror took over me "WHAT? it is 6:30 already?" I exclaimed as the meeting was almost in half an hour. I threw my phone back on the bed and I rushed through the doors. I ran into my closet trying to find a suitable outfit for the meeting and my eyes landed on the most suitable one "aha...this is perfect" I picked it out and put it on Swiftly.
It was a plain blue dress, with white strips which ended just above my knees, I wore black peep toes with it and a black bag to go with, I put on some light make-up, opened up my hair, and I was ready to go!
So I left my house, sat in my car and drove off to the company, reaching the building at sharp 7 pm! I am a punctual person when I need to be.
Phew! Just in time, I thought to myself and walked into the building, the company building was magnificent, I took in the view while making my way in.
I went to the reception asking for a few details and was told to wait for Daichi to arrive, so I took a seat on one of the sofas and grabbed a Vogue magazine.
A few minutes had passed by, I was flipping through the pages of the magazine, engrossed in it to the core.
"Oh, we meet again!" I looked up to see a smirking TAEHYUNG!!!
"Oh, Hello!!!" I replied all cheered up, I stood up immediately and in a hurried way and bent before him.
"So what are you-" before he could finish his sentence Kyo park popped in.
"Hey, who's this cutie~~?" Kyo said smiling at me.
I chuckled, tugging a strand of my hair behind my ear, and replied
"hehe... Well I'm Hikari Yi. A pleasure to meet you!" I bowed to show gratitude!
"Ya so as I was saying what are you doing here-" as taehyung tried to finish his earlier cut sentence Kenma barged in!
"Hey there! Who is this pretty girl?!" Kenma said checking me out with a smirk on his face!
"Everybody back to their dorms please!"
suddenly someone stepped into our conversation and it was the industrious Daichi Sawamura.
"yea sure, whatever!" Taehyung said with annoyance.
"Anyways who is she and what is she doing here?" Namhyuk asked Daichi in a monotonous tone, scrolling through his phone.
"Exactly what I was trying to ask" Taehyung eye-rolled and shoved his hands into his pockets.
"This is HIKARI YI and she'll be your caretaker from now on!" Daichi replied with his eyes fixed on me!
"Good to know, see ya then" Taehyung winked, waved, and left along with all the other members, who waved a 'bye' at me.
I introduced myself to all the members before everyone returned to their dorms.
"Yah so Miss Yi. Come with me. There are few things you need to know before you start!" He gestured me to follow and I hurriedly turned towards him and followed him. He was walking at a quick pace making it harder for me to catch up as I was wearing heels.
_____________________________________________
I followed Daichi to his office right near the corner on the left of the hallway.I had gotten used to scrutinizing new environments, due to the kind of working world I was in.When we entered the room, Daichi motioned me to sit on the chair that was right across his desk, So I took a seat and smiled brightly, but he didn't return the smile, he had expressions similar to that of a critic.He seemed serious as ever, he glanced at me and then continued working on his laptop"So listen here, Miss Yi. You start working as a caretaker starting tomorrow morning, and before you start, it would be better if you clearly understand and absorb the guidelines you need to follow!" he spoke in a very serious, grave tone and I swear I was a little scared at first."Alright so first things first, you will have to get up as early as 5 in the morning and get all the members out of bed by 6!" he read out from his laptop and then glanced at me to see whether
_______________________________________________________I'm in a bakery.The air is alight with a warm fragrance of chocolate and cinnamon and spices, notes of vanilla floating through. Wide windows let in radiant sunlight that caresses each curve, edge, and dip in the simple room.Honey-golden wood floors and rustic, light tables fill the space with airiness and openness.A long glass bar showcases freshly basked muffins, cinnamon rolls, and a tray of chocolate chip cookies.I inhale deeply through my nose, reveling in the ambiance.A cheerful voice pulls my attention to the doorway to the kitchen.In it stands a man in a soft, creamy sweater, whose smile makes a calm, peaceful feeling settle in my chest."Hi, Namhyuk!" you breathe, staring at the tray of sweet rolls he's cradling to his chest.His dimples make an appearance as he motio
"Taehyung" I breathe.He tilts his head, watching you with haunting doe eyes the color of the deepest space, the darkest storm."Hey, princess!" he saysHis voice rumbles through my chest like a bolt of thunder, the name sending waves of warmth screaming through me. Without my consent, my body drops into the chair across the table from him.Hobi sets the brownies on the table and slips out the door, leaving me and Taehyung me alone.said ebony-haired man drops his pencil and stretches his arms over his head, yawning."Mm, you brought me brownies!" he groans reaching for the plate. He takes one and chomps a big bite out of it, chewing happily all the while as I work to process what's going on?parallel universe?new life?did I die in a car crash?I DON'T UNDERSTAND."here'' mumbles Taehyung through a mouth
I rang the bell as I stood at the doorstep of The Orions's manor-like-building!I heard the sound of footsteps approaching the door from behind with a twist of the doorknob Someone opened the door "well, well, well" said a soft voice abruptly "look who decided to show up!" I saw Kyo standing in the doorway his eyes making their inspection of me."Hey HIKARI!!!" Jin says with a cute smile, lingering in the open doorway. His tone is that of an old friend that I haven't seen in ages.I bow my head slightly to greet them while kyo tugs on my arm and drags me inside."Woah!" I gasp at the sudden action "Hi there!!" I say as I'm still being pulled by kyo."Hey Hikari!!!!" kyo replies as he finally stops dragging me.Jin sees my hesitation and laughs. The motion stretches his beautiful lips thin, flashing a toothpaste-commercial-worthy smile."It's okay, make yourself comfortable! The other members will be here no time, her
"No no, it's not going to be a problem for me at all, besides it's you guys that need to be careful"I said cheerfully but the guys took the statement in the wrong way and started giggling and smirking, they thought I meant that they should be careful not to fall for me!"oh no no no! you got the wrong idea probably" I giggled hesitantly while kenma shifted his position to placing his elbows on his legs and leaning towards me a little."So what did you mean by what you said then?" my eyes widened at how close he was to me and I gulped and smiled."Going in a relationship with someone else might affect your career, so you need to be careful with that." I tried to explain and everyone went "oooooh" after listening to my comment."Okay so do you know what all you have to do?!" Kenma asked while re-entering the room followed by Taehyung and both of them sat on the sofa, beside me. I almost stiffened up, engulfed between two towering muscular m
I woke up as the rays of the radiant sun hit me in the eye, crawling past the curtains of my room. I sat up straight in my bed and rubbed my eyes, stretching out my arms, and then turned around to check the time, "HOW THE HELL!" I yelled out loud as I saw that it was noon. I was supposed to wake up at 5 and wake them at 6, I've messed up things on my first day, Great! I clapped my hands sarcastically for myself before I quickly got up from my bed, washed up, and wore a red t-shirt with black shorts along with a ponytail and ran downstairs, and while in a hurry I accidentally missed the last two steps of the staircase and fell all the way down.All the members were already up and were doing their respective works. The noise caused due to my abrupt fall had caused everyone to move their attention to me. I got up instantly rubbing my back and walked towards them, bowing down to apologize."Looks like you forgot at what time you had to wake up huh
I fixed my gaze at Taehyung as he got up from the floor where he was resting and began walking towards me, with his hands stuffed in his grey sweatpants and I gulped as the distance between us seemed to diminish by every second passing. I looked up at him as he stopped inches before me, I could feel the warmth radiating off his body. He slowly lowered himself and brought his face closer to my ear, I shivered unconsciously as his fingers touched my right arm. He brought his face so close to my ear that I could feel his lips touching my ear. "Get us some juice, would you?" he spoke in a low raspy voice, I could feel him smirking against my ear and I bit my lip and nodded before rushing out the door swiftly. (KENMA'S POV) "ahhh...isn't she cute?" I spoke out my thoughts and sighed as I thought of her small fragile form "I agree, plus she's hot, isn't she?" k
"So Hikari, all of us decided to know you better, like go out with you one on one and have discussions with you about yourself and all. And wanted to know if that's fine with you?" Namhyuk asked me with a serious look on his face.'If that's fine with me? seriously? how can I even say no!!! This is on point my dream come true, them implying and intending on spending more time with me' I thought to myself and then answered back thoughtfully"Yeah, sure that's absolutely fine with me. You have the right to know about me as much as I know about you guys!" I smiled and showed a thumbs up in agreement with their thoughts. I could hear a few of them controlling their chuckles and I had NO idea as to what they found funny."So you'll go out with each of us individually. We're going to go in ascending order, starting with Kenma." Jin said with a slight annoyance on his face while KENMA seemed happy?"So come to my room later this night. We'll ta
