I groggily opened my eyes and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling. 'Where....?' Then it all came crashing back and i bolted up right. "Right, I'm stuck in a dead woman's apartment...." I shifted in the bed and yawned grabbing my phone and checking the time. 7:30am, "Jeez so early." I swung my legs over the side of the bed and stretched then brought my gaze back to my phone. It seemed that I had received a text from all of the RFA members. I smiled a little and responded to each. However there was one left from Unknown.
"It'll be really fun from now on. Enjoy your time with everyone. I'll go get you soon."
I stiffened up and glared at my phone.
"Who the hell are you?"
I wasn't expecting a reply so i just set my phone down and tried to calm myself down then looked around the now clean apartment. "Totally worth the 2hrs of work. Though it took longer since Seven called a little after the chat ended." I said satisfied. I recalled the conversation Seven and I had, he had started by saying my bank account had been used for a fun prank and I needed to confirm my phone number to verify my identity. I had rolled my eyes and pretended to be distressed and asked what i needed to do. "Say I love you, like the teddy bear." I snorted and simply asked if i could just press the buttons instead? He laughed and continued with his joke even though I didn't respond for a while. He ended up calling me gullible considering how i wound up in Rika's apartment. Before i could even say a retort he went on about how I shouldn't pick up phone calls like this but since it was him it was ok. Once he was done lecturing me I grinned and said, "Beep beep, we have detected criminal activity on your account..." "What?! you managed to get into a hackers account? Amazing!" We laughed and he went on to tell me that he was checking to make sure this was my phone number and would give it to the other RFA members so i should expect some calls from them eventually. We hung up and I went to work on cleaning. While cleaning I also touched the furniture to make sure nothing bad would happen. I avoided the desk and most drawers. I did check if i could open the kitchen and bathroom cabinets without anything happening. So far so good. I stood a grabbed my favorite creme colored baggy sweater and black tights then headed for the shower.
It was to bad i couldn't grab more stuff before my ex-roommate burned it all. 'Good thing I'm not terribly attached to clothes.' I thought warily. She kicked me out do to a mix of late rent and suspecting I was stealing money from her. The later was her shitty boyfriend, but love makes you blind I guess. I stepped into the warm shower and sighed as the water relaxed my muscles. Thankfully I was able to grab a few basic things. Few pairs of panties, one pair of jeans, two tights, one jean shorts, two t-shirts, my favorite creme sweater, black flats, basic bathroom toiletries, and of course my phone charger. "Urg everything hurts." I whimpered rubbing my arms. I had done a quick inventory of what was left behind her and thankfully there was detergent, so i could wash the bed sheets before i went to sleep. However I had to go out to the store and grab a duster and shampoo/conditioner.
Once out of the shower i dried and dressed then herd my phone ding. Curiously I picked it up and saw that a chatroom had opened. Mr. Han and Zen where in the chat, i smiled slightly and joined as well.
-MC has entered the chatroom-
I sat on the couch and tucked my legs under me and typed my greeting.
MC: Hello.
ZEN: Welcome MC~
JUMIN: Hello.
ZEN: So lame that you responded to her with another hello lol
JUMIN: I have to be polite to a member of the RFA.
ZEN: Aha. I see you're helpless in front of V.
JUMIN: Isn't everyone in this organization?
I checked the time and saw it was 8:10am now. 'Wouldn't a corporate heir need to be at work by now?' So I typed my question.
MC: But Jumin, don't you have to go to work?
JUMIN: I was about to.
ZEN: No one's going to give the executive a hard time for being late.
JUMIN: Assistant Kang will say something though.
ZEN: Oh, right.
JUMIN: What are you doing at this hour, MC?
I froze and smiled, 'He's curious about me, that's nice'
MC: I was just bored lol
JUMIN: I see. I guess you come here for the same reason as Zen.
ZEN: What are you talking about. It's the same for you too.
JUMIN: I won't deny that.
JUMIN: This chat room is quite addictive.
JUMIN: I can brag about Elizabeth 3rd as much as I want.
ZEN: Whatever;;
ZEN: No one cares about cat pictures.
ZEN: (¬_¬;)....
JUMIN: Take this.
JUMIN:
"Ahhh!!" I squealed and smiled at my phone. "She's so pretty!!"
ZEN: (  ̄  ̄|||)
MC: Wow! So pretty.
JUMIN: Thank god at least one person appreciates her beauty.
JUMIN: I tend to believe that a person who likes animals cannot be bad...
ZEN: You only believe what you want to believe.
JUMIN: Certainly, is that not life?
ZEN: Don't pretend to be so above everything!
JUMIN: Anyways.
JUMIN: Cats are the best pet, so MC, you should look into it.
JUMIN: Elizabeth 3rd is the only one who sees me off to work.
JUMIN: She's the only one I need.
ZEN: What are you talking about;; You make all of your maids see you off.
JUMIN: What I mean is... Elizabeth 3rd is the only one who sees me off with a loving soul.
ZEN: Loving soul lol
ZEN: If you treated your employees with a loving soul, they'd polish your shoes and lay out a red carpet.
JUMIN: It's a waste giving yourself to people you've employed. It's a business relationship. Money should be all there is to it.
ZEN: Well. That depends on the person.
ZEN: What do you think, MC?
MC: Isn't it natural to just work as much as you get paid.
JUMIN: That is correct.
ZEN: There are a lot of people who don't work as much as they get paid.
ZEN: If their bosses give them the look, they have to work more than what was agreed...
JUMIN: My company doesn't have anything like that.
ZEN: I think that whatever you do... human emotions are always involved.
I sighed and nodded my head a little, "Well Zen's not wrong...but emotions is how I got fired from my previous jobs." I shrugged and went back to reading the chat.
JUMIN: A true pro never involves emotions with work.
ZEN: Can anything valuable come out without any emotion?
JUMIN: You can think that way since you're an actor.
JUMIN: Anyways, I agree with MC.
ZEN: I've seen people online crying out that working in your company is like being a slave, but I may be wrong.
JUMIN: They should be honored to be my slaves. They are probably tears of joy.
I snorted, if i worked for his company I'd cry tears of joy simply for getting such a big paycheck. Must be nice to not have to worry about making ends meet. However, if i hated my job i'd probably quit even if i got a fat check. There's a fine line here somewhere.
MC: Well... Labor management relations is always a complicated issue.
ZEN: Yeah. Let's talk about something else.
JUMIN: We can talk about cats.
ZEN: No.
JUMIN: MC, do you like cats?
MC: I tend to like them.
Understatement. I LOVE CATS, but i should probably keep my crazy cat lady buried or I'll never get to see Jumin's Elizabeth....like Seven.
JUMIN: I knew V has a good eye for people.
ZEN: You're an animal loving girl.
JUMIN: Fluffy fur, cute and pink paws...
JUMIN: The perfect pet that is even affectionate.
ZEN: If I have to get a pet, I'd get a dog.
ZEN: A cat's a bit too;;; sensitive. Not for me.
MC: I prefer cats.
JUMIN: A woman who recognizes the beauty of cats. I'll have to reconsider you.
JUMIN: Do you know that even Assistant Kang doesn't care for cats?
JUMIN: My heart aches that this beautiful creature is not appreciated enough.
ZEN: Hmm....
ZEN: Well, maybe MC's sensual like cats.
ZEN: I don't like cats, but I do love cat-like women lol
Heat rose to my cheeks after I read his comment. Am I sensual....? "Haha... prolly not, i am a bit flexible though." I said as I lifted one of legs almost parallel to my upper body.
JUMIN: I cannot believe you've turned our wonderful discussion of cats vulgar.
JUMIN: I hope we talk more about cats when Zen's not here, MC.
JUMIN: I don't care what other people think.
JUMIN: Elizabeth 3rd's love is all I need.
ZEN: I bet you sleep while hugging the cat.
ZEN: I can't even begin to imagine all the fur on your bed.
JUMIN: ...Did you just imagine my bed?
ZEN: Get lost.
ZEN: ┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐
JUMIN: Ha. If you live with one, you'll see that they are the best animals. Oh, I guess you'll never get to because of your allergy. How tragic. You are missing out on a big joy of life.
I snickered, "Jumin's actually pretty funny."
ZEN: Don't care. I have plenty of other joys.
ZEN: I'm going to leave now to enjoy one of those which is reading fan letters and practicing my lines.
ZEN: Bye.
MC: Good bye.
ZEN: Have a good day MC.
JUMIN: I'm leaving first.
JUMIN: Adios...
-Jumin Han has left the chatroom-
ZEN: What's with that old man...;;
ZEN: Let's talk again soon ^^
ZEN: (o˘◡˘o)
-ZEN has left the chatroom-
I looked up from my phone smiling. It was hard to tell if those two actually disliked each other or not, in any cause I could see myself enjoying my time with the RFA members.
In the few hours that followed I cleaned up a bit more then sat down to try and budget the money I had left. I was curious if i would get paid for being a 'party coordinator' but i doubt i would be considering the party was for charity. I sighed and looked over the budget again. 'I can make this work.' I thought grimly and stood making a quick shopping list, I couldn't live off snacks forever. For a while i wasn't sure if it was ok to leave, but no one had said anything when I went out last night soooo....
It didn't take long to buy the things i needed and return to my temporary home. I walked in and just stood there. I was putting the groceries away when my phone dinged again. It said it was 10:04am and that Jumin and 707 are in the chatroom. I sat down once i was done and joined in.
-MC has entered the chatroom-
Would it be ok if I greeted him? I weighed my options for a moment then decided nothing ventured nothing gained.
MC: Hello, Jumin.
JUMIN: Welcome.
707: Huh? Welcome, MC!
JUMIN: My driver isn't here yet.
JUMIN: Thanks to that I can't go to work.
"That was like 2hrs ago....I hope that driver keeps his job....poor guy" I muttered.
707: lol take the subway.
JUMIN: I don't know where that is. And I don't have cash.
I stared incredulously at my phone. How.....how does someone NOT KNOW where the subway is??? I closed my eyes for a moment. Ah right....he's the top 1%. People drive him places he doesn't need to take the commoners way to work. Can't believe I forgot he was crazy wealthy.
707: Knew it lol.
707: Oh. MC, u know that Jumin has a cat, right?
707: I want to see her~
JUMIN:
I smiled when Elizabeth the 3rd's picture from earlier showed up again. She really is a beautiful cat.
JUMIN: Anyways, I'm worried that there are a lot of people who don't understand the beauty of cats in this world..
JUMIN: I should have the company carry out more cat related businesses.
707: lmfao
707: Jumin's a cat mom.
I grinned a bit, "Hehe...cat mom. He probably won't like that though."
JUMIN: I do not like that term.
"Nailed it." I said smiling more. I shouldn't tease him so I'll just compliment Elizabeth
MC: The cat's pretty.. haha
JUMIN: Of course.
707: I know right? She's a pretty chill cat.
JUMIN: She is not cool. She is very picky.
707: Ya? She's not picky with me.
707: ╮( ̄ω ̄;)╭
JUMIN: That's because you forced Elizabeth the 3rd to...
JUMIN: (;⌣̀_⌣́)....
JUMIN: God...
JUMIN: I don't even want to talk about it.
707: Lol I can imagine him giving her cat food in his suit.
'The guy probably doesn't know the meaning of causal' I thought looking at my own clothes....
JUMIN: I heard organic food is good.
JUMIN: Oh, I forgot.
JUMIN: 707, this is a chance for you to use your corrupt money to do good.
JUMIN: Donate some cat food.
707: Should I? Then will you let me play with Elizabeth 3rd?
JUMIN: I will never give her to you even if someone points a gun at my face.
707: Can't I go over to your place?
707: \(★ω★)/
707: You have a huge TV in the living room, and a PlayStation and a X-box too. Also, Elizabeth 3rd lol
JUMIN: The PlayStation and X-box are not there for you.
'Does Jumin even know how to use those consoles?' I wondered idly.
JUMIN: Don't come over. Never come over.
JUMIN: I have footage of you biting Elizabeth 3rd's neck on security tapes.
JUMIN: If you come near my place, security will stop you.
707: Alright, so all I have to do is hang around with this security guard and then go in lol. Okie dokie.
JUMIN: (--_--)
JUMIN: MC, 707's a dangerous man. Because...
JUMIN: He never listens.
MC: Ya. I'll have to careful.
707: Nah~ I love everyone.
707: You don't have to be careful of me haha
JUMIN: Well, I guess you don't have to be.
JUMIN: Whether you are careful or not 707 has the ability to get his way.
707: Ya?
707: ( ̄ω ̄)
MC: Seven, what do you do?
JUMIN: Didn't someone tell you he's a hacker?
"Shit!" I groaned. Yes they did....why am i so forgetful? I face palmed then went back to reading the chats.
JUMIN: But no one knows which organization 707 works for.
JUMIN: He might have other jobs besides hacking.
707: Hmm... Aside from hacking...
707: I fry bacon at the office. I burn music CDs too.
JUMIN: It's his trait to give you generous amounts of useless information.
707: Why! Bacon is a huge source of protein!
707: I am also very devoted to my religion.
707: My heart is full of love and peace!
707: Why can't anyone recognize the love inside of me?
JUMIN: If that's love, then you're a sadist.
707: What's that?
707: \(★ω★)/
JUMIN: Don't ask. You know already.
JUMIN: Also
JUMIN: don't ever come near Elizabeth 3rd again.
JUMIN: You're dangerous.
JUMIN: You've been to Rika's apartment, and you kept quiet all this time.
707: Well, I had no choice because it was top secret.
707: o(〒﹏〒)o
JUMIN: How many secrets do you have? You give me goosebumps;
707: I'm in charge of managing top secret information lol.
MC: I think he's funny.
707: Wow! She thinks I'm funny.
707: I'd like to gift u the thrill and joy of riding a roller coaster, MC!
707: (b ᵔ▽ᵔ)b
JUMIN: I will absolutely refuse.
JUMIN: A roller coaster ride from a person with secrets is only a fantasy.
707: I dunno about any secrets~
707: lol
JUMIN: ...
707: lolololololol
'God he's so hyper. I wonder if he lives off soda.' I thought smiling at my phone.
707: lol well, I guess... I do have secrets.
707: Since I take care of classified information~!
JUMIN: It's funny to you too, right?
707: Ya, a bit.
707: I am a bit of the secretive type.
JUMIN: People with secrets are always dangerous.
707: Don't be like that, Jumin~
707: Don't fear me.
707: If u come over to my place, I'll give u a smothering hug.
JUMIN: Whatever; ; I'm really going to work bow.
JUMIN: I just stuck around because my driver's running late.
707: Cheer up! Whoot whoot!
JUMIN: Luciel, you have a good day too.
MC: Good bye.
JUMIN: Hope everything goes well, MC.
JUMIN: Alright then.
707: I'll give u the proper cat mom send off.
707: Good bye for meow~★
I couldn't hold back my giggle. Only a character like Seven would dare to tease, a corporate heir.
707: ( ̄ω ̄)
-Jumin Han has left the chatroom-
707: No one knows how affectionate I can be lol
707: Right?
707: I hope u believe me.
MC: I'll believe you.
707: Okay...
707: Thank you.
707: Ur a nice person, MC!
I hummed a bit. Yea I guess I could be.
707: I'll peace out now.
707: I have to work T_T
707: The company's lucky to have me as their slave...
MC: Good bye.
707: I'll be waiting until the day we get to talk again.
707: ^^
-707 has left the chatroom-
I logged out with a smile, that was fun and Jumin was there again. No i need to keep this infatuation under control. "MC you silly girl keep it in you pants." I muttered sprawling out on the couch enjoying the late morning rays coming in through the window.
I must have dozed off for a little while because my phone ringing is what brought me back to my senses. I looked at the screen and saw it was Jaehee. I debated for a moment if I should answer and in the end I thought it best.
"Hello. It's very nice to meet you. This is Jaehee Kang. Seven told us your number so i called. I wanted to properly talk to you instead of just continuing to chat online. It'd be better if we could talk in person, but since we can't; I thought this would be the next best thing."
'I should probably keep it formal since she is.' I thought before speaking, "Thank you. I'm glad that there's at least one other woman in this group." 'Aw jeez, now it sounds like I only like her cause she's a woman.' Jaehee seemed like she didn't mind my comment as she continued to talk to me about how if i need any help I could ask her. Well anything as long as it wasn't pet related. She actually seemed like she would rather pull her hair out then deal with pets. Which was surprising considering her boss has one. She continued on for a while not leaving room for me to say anything...which i was noticing was a trend with the RFA members. Until finally I squeezed in a question,
"How long have you been working with Mr.Han?"
"Around two and a half years. I work as Mr.Han's chief assistant. I've been a member of the RFA a bit less than that. Oh. I'm sorry I have to go handle some work. It was nice talking to you. Please call me when you need something or have a question. I will take care of it as fast as I can. I look forward to working with you." She hung up before i could even tell her goodbye. I set my phone down and frowned. 'Speaking of work....when am I suppose to start doing anything?' I picked my phone back up and noticed that I had missed a chatroom with Yoosung and 707. 'I wonder what they talked about.' I thought curiosity getting the better of me.
707: Let's see if I can research more on MC.
YOOSUNG: Did you find something? I want to know too.
707: Ok. I will make an exception and let you in on some info.
YOOSUNG: +_+
707: She's a girl. Young. In my standard, and she is cute.
YOOSUNG: (・・ ) ?
YOOSUNG: I don't know what your standard is like but go on.
707: Two beautiful eyes and pink lips.
707: She must be reading this conversation through her smartphone.
I sucked in a breath almost dropping my phone. "Jesus! Seven can be one scary guy when he wants.....he does seem to think rather favorably of my though..."
707: That's enough, right?
YOOSUNG: Are you sure you can share that much information?
YOOSUNG: is what you thought I would say, right? -_-
YOOSUNG: Just admit that you don't know much about her.
707: Ok, I don't.
YOOSUNG: ε- (-。- )
YOOSUNG: Well, but now it sounds like you're lying.
707: Hmm...
707: Hmmmm~.
707: I'm actually not doing a background check on her... I'm searching for the person who sent MC to Rika's apartment.
YOOSUNG: Oh, I see!
YOOSUNG: If you find out, will you tell everyone!
707: That depends on V.
707: As always~
YOOSUNG: He makes it clear that he knows everything but never gives anything out.
707: Maybe.
707: I can't help it tho T_T
707: Why would the information be called 'classified'?
YOOSUNG: ...
707: I have to leave now. Just got more work~
YOOSUNG: You have to take care of it right away, right?
YOOSUNG: I finished my lunch so I have to go too.
707: Ok.
YOOSUNG: Okay~
-707 has left the chatroom-
-Yoosung★ has left the chatroom-
Aside from the quick blurb about me it was uneventful. That's good. would hate to miss anything important on my first day. I sighed and decided to watch some Netflix on my phone. There is a TV here but if Rika has been dead for a while then the service is probably long turned off. Now that I think about....why are the utilities still on? I shrugged not wanting to spend much time on it. Better rest up before I get busy I guess. I was on my 3rd episode of Master Chef when my phone dinged indicating another chatroom had opened. Looks like its just Jaehee.
-MC has entered the chatroom-
MC: Hello, Jaehee.
JAEHEE: Hello, MC.
JAEHEE: I was just thinking about you.
MC: About me?
JAEHEE: Yes. Since you are at Rika's apartment.
JAEHEE: And other than you, no one can go near that place.
JAEHEE: It is quite an irony.
JAEHEE: We who've worked with Rika cannot enter the place,
JAEHEE: and yet you who are a complete stranger can stay there...
"Ironic indeed." I took a quick glance around the apartment then went back to my phone.
JAEHEE: The apartment that you are in probably has all the documents relevant to what Rika did.
JAEHEE: If you fill Rika's position.
JAEHEE: then maybe we will be able to host the parties again.
JAEHEE: What do you think?
'Not like I have anything or anywhere else to be.' I thought glumly.
MC: I think it will be fun.
JAEHEE: Fun...?
JAEHEE: I don't know. It's ultimately about dealing with people, so I guess it can be fun.
JAEHEE: Depending on your personality.
"Eh, people aren't so bad....just gatta crank up the charm." I shrugged, no longer caring that i spoke allowed when no one else was here.
MC: So... what will I have to do? Specifically...
JAEHEE: ╰(*'︶'*)╯
JAEHEE: That is a good question
JAEHEE: I will explain.
JAEHEE: Rika exchanged various emails with party guests at the apartment.
JAEHEE: As far as I know, she approved or declined guests depending on the theme of the party.
JAEHEE: Even if the person had no desire to attend the party, she convinced them so that they make an appearance.
JAEHEE: That is... what you will be responsible of.
JAEHEE: If you take care of the task well,
JAEHEE: then it will be possible to host the party again.
"Haaa.....okay....." I held my phone in one hand while the other fiddled with the tip of my hair. "Sounds simple yet really difficult, I should brush up on all sorts of topics." A question popped into my head and i quickly typed it out.
MC: What's the benefit of hosting the party again?
JAEHEE: There are a lot of benefits.
JAEHEE: First...
JAEHEE: I think it will be meaningful that Rika's mission isn't hindered and continues on.
JAEHEE: Especially, I presume that V, who has not really been involved with the organization after Rika's death, will change.
JAEHEE: Currently, V is not really active in the organization.
JAEHEE: He rarely logs into the chat room.
JAEHEE: So... everyone is probably hoping for V to come back.
JAEHEE: Except for Yoosung.
'I wonder why.' I thought but didn't ask since i felt it wasn't my business.
MC: Do you hope for V to come back?
JAEHEE: I...
JAEHEE: Well I don't know.
JAEHEE: That's a difficult question.
JAEHEE: Ah...
JAEHEE: I would like to talk with you further, but I must leave for a moment.
"oh...she ran....to personal?"
MC: Good bye.
JAEHEE: I will see you again.
JAEHEE: I hope... Rika's work goes well.
JAEHEE: I will be off.
-Jaehee Kang has left the chatroom-
I tapped my phone to my lips in thought. There seems to be some tension among the RFA. I checked the time, "Oh wow! I didn't realize the time, i need to make some lunch. PB&J here i come!" I turned on some music from my phone and danced around while making my lunch.
After enjoying my late lunch I did some yoga. Normally I would go out for a walk or even a jog, but i wasn't sure how much i should really be leaving the apartment. So i decided I should go when I needed food or it was an emergency. To keep from getting to stir crazy I figured a little home exercise would be good. I slowly let out my breath as i bent down and placed my hands on the carpet, ass in the air. Once again I was happy no one could see me. I didn't think I was ugly, in fact i'd go with a solid C-....super average. I grunted and turned to the side extending my arm and leg. I was focusing on my breathing when the ding of my phone startled me.
"Jesus H Christ!" I snapped sitting down on the floor one hand on my chest trying to calm my racing heart. "This better be good." I growled at my phone, checking who was in the chatroom. "Oh! It's Jumin..."
-MC has entered the chatroom-
MC: Hello, Jumin.
JUMIN: Hello, MC.
JUMIN: Congratulations again on joining the organization.
JUMIN: It's easy to enter, but leaving won't be so easy.
I frowned. 'He did NOT just threaten me.' I thought darkly, 'I'm trapped in an apartment and he wants to make veiled threats....'
MC: Is that a threat?
JUMIN: A little bit.
JUMIN: You're pretty quick.
"Yea I am." I grumbled reigning in my temper. "Now why do you feel the need to threaten me, shit-stick." Before I could type my question he answered it.
JUMIN: The reason's simple.
JUMIN: You're at Rika's apartment.
JUMIN: Rika's private documents are probably there as well.
JUMIN: That's strictly classified.
JUMIN: You only have to deal with the information we need.
JUMIN: The information regarding the party.
JUMIN: You'll have access to all the information about the party that Rika managed.
JUMIN: I hope that you'll take on the task and continue her work without any trouble.
I sighed and leaned my head back against the couch, "Right. Note to self, super don't touch anything that looks important."
MC: Don't worry. I'll do a good job.
JUMIN: You're a smart girl.
JUMIN: (⌒‿⌒)
"Oh...." I stared at the screen for a moment a small smile tugging at my lips. Even though I was still annoyed at being threatened.
JUMIN: All the party guests had to contact Rika.
JUMIN: It was her job to convince them to participate.
JUMIN: It won't be easy. I hope you do a good job.
MC: I'll try my best.
JUMIN: I like that confidence.
JUMIN: If you do a good job...
JUMIN: We'll get to host parties again.
JUMIN: Don't you want to make memories you'll never forget?
My heart skipped a beat and I shook my head. Not the time for such thoughts.
MC: I'd like to do something meaningful.
JUMIN: It's a big event that helps those in need.
JUMIN: You will definitely feel proud of the accomplishment.
JUMIN: If anything happens, ask me or Assistant Kang.
JUMIN: I'm busy so I can't log in here often.
JUMIN: Assistant Kang may seem picky, but she's hardworking and true to her words.
JUMIN: She's trustworthy.
JUMIN: Anyways, I have to go to work now.
MC: Good bye.
JUMIN: Okay.
JUMIN: Go to bed early.
JUMIN: Tomorrow morning might be the best time to work.
JUMIN: Good luck.
-Jumin Han has left the chatroom-
'Was that a hint? does....does my work start tomorrow?? Dang it now I feel like i need to sleep early tonight.' I huffed and sat on the couch properly. I should have got a book while I was out today...maybe I can find a game to play on my phone? I played solitaire for a while and a dress up game, then huffed and put my phone down. 'Maybe a nap? Yea that's fine' I got up and stretched glancing at the time, 'Geez it's only 3pm and I'm already bored.' I flopped onto the bed and let out another huff. "So bored." I then herd the ding. I've never picked up my phone so fast. "Just Zen it seems."
-MC has entered the chatroom-
MC: Zen, Hi~
ZEN: Hey, MC.
ZEN: I just finished my rehearsal and came home.
ZEN: I just took a shower. Finally I can breathe.
ZEN: We rehearsed in the basement today and it was so humid I thought I was going to die.
ZEN: Headache...
ZEN: ( ̄  ̄|||)
MC: Are you okay?
ZEN: Yeah. I feel better after taking a shower.
ZEN: I wish we could rehearse where there's good ventilation.
ZEN: But I guess that's too good to be true.
ZEN: Thanks for worrying.
ZEN: I have to practice in the basement right now, but I hope I get to work on a new project soon and practice in proper rehearsal rooms.
ZEN: The director says that he'd get a new project soon but...
ZEN: To be honest, without the parties, my sponsors in the musical industry have left one by one.
ZEN: It's already been a year and a half.
ZEN: Since our last party.
ZEN: Rika's party was packed with sponsors...
ZEN: There were a lot of people from the art industry.
'Try not to add anymore pressure would you?' I grunted and typed my thought.
MC: I feel a bit of pressure.
ZEN: Haha.
ZEN: I understand.
ZEN: Everyone talks about Rika to you, so you must be pretty tired of that.
ZEN: Don't be so stressed.
ZEN: Just do what you can do.
ZEN: ^^
ZEN: The parties were still amazing though.
ZEN: It's probably because of Rika's amazing convincing skills and V's fame that the parties were so influential.
ZEN: Since everyone wanted to buy V's work.
MC: Fame?
ZEN: Oh. I guess you don't know about V.
ZEN: V is a famous photographer.
ZEN: ...He's famous within the industry, but not to the public.
ZEN: He doesn't like being in the press or being talked about.
ZEN: But...
ZEN: I don't think I should go into detail about V...
ZEN: He doesn't like other people talking about him.
ZEN: He is quite secretive...
ZEN: but he's really a good person.
ZEN: I respect him a lot.
ZEN: 。゚( ゚^∀^゚)゚。
ZEN: I'm going to grab some food now, MC.
ZEN: Did you eat?
MC: I already ate.
ZEN: Good.
ZEN: It's important to eat well. ^^
ZEN: Then I'll get going.
ZEN: Let's talk again.
ZEN: Oh, and also...
ZEN: This is a photo I took while I was a practice.
ZEN:
I sputtered at the sudden picture, "Oh wow....not a lot of people can pull looking good while sweaty."
ZEN: Then see you later ^^
ZEN: ☆⌒ヽ(*'、^*)chu
-ZEN has left the chatroom-
'Jeez....' I inwardly groaned. 'He so....so.....urg!' I laid back on the bed and stared up at the ceiling a smile pulling at my lips, but before I could close my eyes to nap my phone started to ring. 'Yoosung? Wonder what he wants?'
"Oh, you picked up right away! Hello? Im Yoosung Kim! 'Yoosung with a black star in the messenger is me. Do you know who I am?" Yea well how could not? no one else has ever reminded me so much of a puppy.
"You're the one with the blond hair, right?"
"Yeah, that's me! You remembered! Yay!" Goodness he's so excitable, I laughed inwardly thinking he might find it rude if i just started laughing. He as well didn't leave me any room to speak as he just went on talking. He was concerned that I might had been offended since everyone suspected me yesterday.
"I was bit upset." I decided when dealing with his type of person honesty is the way to go.
"I knew...it...I would have been too if I were you. You're suddenly surrounded by strangers and people think you're suspicious....it's upsetting. You know...regardless of what everyone says, I trust you." 'Jesus, why? You don't even know me.' I thought equal parts concerned and touched. He went on to say that my problems would be solved if they catch the hacker and since Seven's a genius he'll catch the person quick. Not all my problems would be fixed no but the danger I found myself in would definitely go away. Don't worry, he said, and he was sorry that i was upset. 'Urg right in the feels. I feel like I just let me dog down, I need to fix this.' Turns out I didn't need to do anything. Yoosung perked right up and started asking me a million questions.
"What do you like? Do you like gaming? I know a super fun one! And i'm pretty good at it too. Let me know if you need a game partner. I can help you. I can be a spectacular knight in the game world. Though not so easily in reality. Haha. It's kind embarrassing, but I have a lot of power in the LoLoL world." I herd a bell ring in the background. 'Did he call me while at school?'
"Oh, the class bell rang. I have to go back to class. Sorry, but i have to hang up. Let's talk later. i don't know about anything else, but im super good at gaming. So let me know. Talk to you later!" The line went dead and i just stared at my phone. "What just happened?" I asked myself. Not only did he ask me about myself, he didn't give me anytime to answer. I huffed and put phone down. 'Maybe now I could have that nap?' I thought as my eyes slowly started to close.
