Hii! Welcome back!!
Miss. Narrator
Lets get started!!
My mom was back in my office.
Mrs. Yuri Jeon
Jungkook! I thought I said you were coming with me?!!
Jeon Jungkook
Mom. I got a company to handle! I can’t just go with you leaving all my work here!
Mrs. Yuri Jeon
Then ask someone to do it for you!! You are the CEO!
Suddenly someone knocked on the door.
It had to be Taehyung. He was going to get me the reports of other companies design.
Kim Taehyung
Mr. Jeon. The files you asked.
Jeon Jungkook
I must say Mr. Kim. You are right on time. I didn’t think you could create a report so early.
I was really impressed with his working. If I asked this from my assistant or other employees they would take forever to give me this file.
Kim Taehyung
Not to brag but it’s a piece of cake. You just need to go through the past reports and their current statistics.
Isn’t that’s how we create a report?
Mrs. Yuri Jeon
Umm! Excuse me!
Mrs. Yuri Jeon
I am his mother. Jeon Yuri
Kim Taehyung
My greetings to you, Mrs. Jeon.
Mrs. Yuri Jeon
I want to ask that, can you take over his work for a few days? I need him with me.
I groaned audibly, burying my head in my hands as I heard her words. She is just handing my position as a CEO, to someone else, to my own damn employee!
I don’t even want to think what Taehyung might be thinking. There are high chances he might take over the under my mother’s pressure.
Kim Taehyung
Mrs. Jeon. I am sorry to say but that’s not something I can do. The position is of CEO. Mr. Jeon’s every sign, every decision matters a lot. It’s not a drama where I can role play.
Am I surprised? Yes. Am I impressed? A big yes!
Mrs. Yuri Jeon
M-Mr. Kim! You should understand a mother’s pain, or a child who’s away from her mother cause of his work. A mother-son share a different bond, you know that righ-
Kim Taehyung
No, Mrs. Jeon. I don’t. Cause I don’t have a mother to know about that bonding. So, I am the last person you should ask this about.
I feel like shit. My mother has really created enough mess in my college life, and now she is after my company.
Jeon Jungkook
Mom. That’s enough. Get this clear, I am not marrying. Not by someone you choose at least.
Jeon Jungkook
Living with you I know your choice enough to know it’s not something I want. So please restrain yourself from asking me the same question again and again.
Jeon Jungkook
And please leave. I have work to do and mind is already a mess.
I sighed as she left without any other word. It’s not like I don’t feel bad knowing I am hurting her. But I can’t just sacrifice my whole life for her one wish.
Marrying is a life time thing. I don’t want to regret marrying my partner. I want to be in love, not regret.
Jeon Jungkook
Oh yes! Sorry I got lost. Its just a lot on my mind, and the work load.
Kim Taehyung
I can understand.
Kim Taehyung
Are those the files of the launch? Are you done signing them?
I looked at the pile of files amd a sigh left my lips naturally.
Jeon Jungkook
They are yet to be checked and read. I was going to do that when mom came in. Also I am sorry for her behaviour.
Kim Taehyung
No, it’s alright. And, why are you checking them? Shouldn’t this be done by the employees working under your department? No offence but what’s the point of appointing them if it’s you who has to do so much work?
Jeon Jungkook
I get what you are saying. I gave them the files but, they took too long to complete and did half-assed work.
Kim Taehyung
Then you should manage them. They are working under you, not the other way around.
Jeon Jungkook
I get it. Guess I need to bring that Jeon Jungkook back. The strict CEO that I was in my early days.
I smiled thinking about my past days when I was the typical book CEO. Strict, with a bit less friendly personality. It was when I turned 30, my personality changed a bit.
But in all this, what caught my attention was something I never thought I would see. His cheeks, they were red. He had a golden skin which look-nothing. Yea. Gosh I am losing my focus!!
His voice was not normal. He, sort of squeaked, a lil.
Jeon Jungkook
Are you fine?
Kim Taehyung
Yes, sir. I was just thinking about-nothing. Its nothing. So you are planning to be like your past self? That’s good. I don’t really think many employees here know what you were like.
Many employees huh. So he knows.
Jeon Jungkook
I mean do you know how I was back then?
Kim Taehyung
Sir, its my 6th year in this company and it has been roughly 3 years you went soft.
Soft. Vanilla. Not my preference, guess he also has no liking towards softness. Does that mean he likes it rou-FOCUS JEON!
Kim Taehyung
So, I know it better that anyone as I used to work on the same floor as yours. It was when the new floors were constructed, my work place changed.
Jeon Jungkook
No wonder I didn’t recognised you. I always walked with my head high in clouds and all mattered was the work.
Kim Taehyung
It’s fine. I really liked you back then.
Kim Taehyung
Your personality! Slip of tongue. I meant I really liked your personality back then.
Sus Kim Taehyung. Sus. Your pink cheeks say something else.
Jeon Jungkook
So, you mean you don’t like My personality now?
Kim Taehyung
It’s nothing like that. I mean its not bad but, just sort of average? Neutral I would say.
It would be an understatement if I said I wasn’t embarrassed or disappointed. If I had dog ears, they would have flopped down in sadness.
Jeon Jungkook
I get it Mr. Kim. To be honest even I don’t like myself. It’s not me, you know.
Jeon Jungkook
In my youth days, I was that kid of college that always ends up in trouble. Arrives late at every place. And fighting was my second nature.
Kim Taehyung
You fought?!!
Jeon Jungkook
Oh lord! Is it that hard to believe now?!
Kim Taehyung
I mean, sorry but you don’t seem the jock types! With that clear fa-
Jeon Jungkook
I got a permanent scar here on my cheeks.
Kim Taehyung
Ow! That’s hard to determine.
Ofcourse it will be hard when he standing so far away.
Kim Taehyung
I guess I should go now.
Jeon Jungkook
I-yeah you should.
Well, it was good while It lasted.
Miss. Narrator
And that’s all!!
