4. Too Much
Busan University
The Dean and the HODs of the University were were running around the main building, taking care of the preparations for the campus interview that's to be conducted in their college.
Throughly selected press reporters were also invited to cover the news without any alterations.
The students were bewildered because of the crazy rush and prohibitions. Several classes and corridors were blocked and closed off for the students.
If the students didn't knew the reason, they would think that the main building was almost turned into some military confinement.
The Dean alongside his few professors stood at the roof of the college, a couple feet away from the helipad.
The teachers kept checking their watches for every two or three minutes.
"Apologies for asking but why did they insist on arriving by a chopper, sir?" Kim Namjoon, the head of Arts faculty asked the Sanchez Ha, the HOD of Mathematics department and the man snickered silently.
"Words went around that they're one of the newly appointed members of board and that one of the students is their son or something!
Also, the chairwoman of the said guest is a very hot-headed and private person. So not many has seen her in person.
The CEO also invested a lot of money to be able to pull out such stunts according to their whims." Sanchez explained dramatically with an eyeroll.
Namjoon frowned upon his words.
"Too less of an expenditure for these snobby conglomerates! But for people like us, it's too much." Sanchez snorted and the Dean cleared his throat warningly and the man immediately sealed his lips.
Namjoon breathed out a long sigh and stood straight, both hands in his pocket as he looked up at the sky after hearing the sound of the helicopter from distance.
"Mr Kim, will you be okay to run back to the auditorium and check the preparation one last time?" The Dean asked Namjoon, eyes pleading in request.
The man grunted inwardly but nodded.
"Ofcourse, Sir!"
Kim turned on his heels and quickly strode towards the auditorium, cursing at the Dean in his head.
"We're about to land in a couple of minutes, Mr Min." The pilot of the chopper spoke through his headset and Hoseok mumbled 'copy' in response.
"I still don't see a point in using the helicopter. We could have just drove here!" Yoongi spoke, giving YN a stinky eye.
Hoseok rolled his eyes at his fiancé and looked at YN, quietly leaned back in her seat and yawned, closing her eyes.
"Victor's still in the city. And I consider myself anything but liability. He's in our territory and I'm responsible for his safety until he's gone back in the international waters. We do not want his father to put a bullet up your ass .
So cut it out! Last time I checked, you were thrashing in his arms but hey, I'm not complaining!"
YN mocked and Yoongi scowled at her with grimace.
Hoseok bursted out laughing loudly, almost jumping in his seat. He kept giggling for a couple minutes more before wiping out the beads of tears from the corner of his eyes.
"Come on hyung! Let that man breathe. What has he even done to you?" He asked suppressing his giggles.
Yoongi looked at him with a warm smile and grunted playfully.
"You're lucky that I love you more than anything else in this world! Or else I would have already given you the experience of the mile high club!"
The man squinted his eyes at him playfully, making his heart drum harder against his ribcage.
But before he could retort back to the feline eyed man, the announcement went off.
"We're here!" Hoseok spoke and the three put on their mask, sunglasses and gloves, covering their faces.
Soon, the metal bird landed on the helipad and teachers frowned, stepping back to avoid the gush of dust that polluted the area.
After the blades slowed down and the dust settled, the bodyguard stepped out first followed by Yoongi and YN.
The Dean and Sanchez stepped forward first to greet them. The rest stayed a little behind them.
"Welcome to our college, Ms Jeon and
Mr Min!" The Dean enthusiastically chirped in a high pitched voice. The man stuck out his arm for a handshake but before YN could speak, Hoseok immediately took his hand, shaking with a tight grip. The man squeaked in pain but grinned widely to mask his discomfort.
"Mr Eli Song! I'm Hoseok Jung, Ms Jeon's P.A and her personal
bodyguard." Hoseok spoke with same enthusiasm, not leaving Mr Song's hand.
Sanchez stepped forward interrupting their conversation and handed and small bouquet of white tulips to Yoongi.
"Welcome Mr Min and Ms Jeon! I'm Sanchez Ha, head of Mathematics dept. We're very happy to have you here today." Yoongi nodded his head and stretched his hand for a small handshake.
He looked at YN who inclined her head and looked back at teacher and spoke.
"Lead the way."
"This way, please!" Sanchez humbly request and turned around to lead them to the auditorium. Mr Song was about follow YN right beside her, but her bodyguard immediately wrapped his right arm around his shoulder gripping him tightly. He walked with him behind them, leaning a bit near his ears and muttered.
"If you try to jump on Ms Jeon one more time, I only dislocated your bones but she will break them down to the point of no fixation.
Be careful!" He whispered into his ears and slipped away right beside Yoongi, who immediately wrapped his arms around the younger's waist and gave him a small kiss on his forehead.
Eli shuddered in fear, massaging his right wrist and quitely followed after them. The other teachers were confused but stayed quite and kept their queries to themselves.
"Everybody say la la la la la~
Say la la la la la..........."
Jungguk kept singing in a funny tone and dancing like crazy dork, making Taehyung burst out into laughter.
"Baby, what are you trying to do?"
He asked after somewhat calming down.
The younger grinned widely and blew a kiss in his direction and Taehyung acted like fainting after being struck by the kiss.
Jungguk walked closer to him and sat down beside him, taking his hand in his own and interlocking their fingers together.
"Just making that you don't forget to smile. Your smile has this undeniable charm to captivate people, just like some melody of a siren.
And even though my nuna can be too intimidating, she knows when to slow down. So don't let her scare you. I only want you to be the one to work with me, not that spineless bitch of Song!"
"You could have been told your sister about her. Like how that Dean got his daughter on your tail to seduce you!" Taehyung turned in his seat and pulled him closer and caressed his head softly.
Jungguk grumbled with a long sigh and spoke
"Nuna is going to make them clean bathrooms for the entire year if she gets the whiff of their craps. So let's focus on your interview! Hmm?"
" 'kay! So all I need to do is to clear this interview and I'm the intern photographer of The Jeon Jungguk of LV!" Taehyung exclaimed, peppering with butterfly kisses on the younger's face, extracting fits of giggles from him.
What the two young men didn't notice was the said woman, Song Kate drilling holes into their souls from a distance.
"Bloody faggots! Only if dad didn't pester me to get close to him, I'd care less if they drop dead!"
She cleared her throat and pulled out her best fake smile and exclaimed loudly, walking towards the couple.
"Hi Junggukie~"
The elder of the two frowned upon her voice and his eyes twitched in annoyance.
Never in his his whole life Taehyung swore he wanted to smack a woman this bad.
This woman is definitely too much.
"Is he trying to piss me off because it's working really good?
There won't be any internship interviews! I'm leaving." YN announced loudly earning a few gasps from the teaching staff standing around them.
"B-but M-Ms Jeon! You c-can't suddenly cancel the whole thing." The Dean stuttered, trying to convince the pissed woman.
"The instructions were very much clear, Mr Song. We informed you that there won't be any fancy crap. A small room with no cameras or wiretapping." Yoongi threw a glare at the man who was now almost close to a meltdown. YN turned around, not looking at the group of the pitiful faces of the professors.
She's about to walk away when someone from the crowd spoke up.
"I apologise for the inconvenience, Mr Min. If I may suggest, you can use the dance studio. Since the cameras in there can only be controlled from there only, you will have complete privacy."
Suddenly a wide smile stretched on everyone's lips.
Mr Song nodded frantically and looked at the CEO with hopeful eyes and spoke
"Y-yes Ms Jeon! The room is just the way you prefer. I'll just get a few chairs placed in there and we're good to go!"
"Alright, you and your advisor will arrange the room properly in next twenty minutes or we can always forget the programme!" YN spoke without turning around and the Dean scrambled away from the with Namjoon on his tail.
Sanchez offered the three to rest in his own lab for the time being and Yoongi raised his eyebrows at him suspiciously to which the man answered "I'm happily married and the father of four!"
Hoseok only snorted at the man and patted his lover's arm to calm him down.
"What is it that you offer to us, Taehyung-ssi?" Hoseok asked the man sitting infront of them. Taehyung looked at him dumbfounded, confusion written all over his face.
"Why should I hire you, he asks? Kim Taehyung, is it?" YN asked eyeing the boy from head to toe.
The boy blushed in embarrassment.
"I wish to be able to learn better under your guidance, Ms Jeon!"
YN raised her brow at his response.
Sope couple suppressed their laughs.
"You are one of the most successful and youngest female designer and businesswoman in the world! I've been to all of the exhibitions of Last Venom in our nation and Japan. Especially the ones that you photographed yourself. I've been trying to learn the technique that you talked about during Venom's Glory Night 2018. And I don't think I'll be able to find such great opportunity to learn from you again anytime soon!
I've also heard that Jeon Jungguk is one of the most finest rising model, that you have introduced to the entertainment industry. It will be the dream come true to be able to work with such a fine model."
Taehyung finished his answer with a beautiful smile.
YN stared at him for a few minutes, poking the inside of her choice and kept twirling the pen in between her fingers.
"Looks like nobody told this kid that butter is expensive now a days!" YN muttered under her breath and glared at him without blinking, even once.
"I want to break his perfect jaw if you ask me!"
"Well, he managed to snag your attention! And he does have one impressive portfolio!" Yoongi spoke, flipping through the file infront of him.
Hoseok hummed in response.
"But you should know that trainee interns don't get payed much!" Hoseok stated calmly ignoring the faint noise of protest from the CEO.
"Even if I do a decent job?" Taehyung asked abruptly, then slapped his own mouth as his eyes widened at panic.
A glint of amusement flashed in YN's eyes as the two men next to her snorted lightly.
"Do you think you can keep up with my pace?"
Taehyung bobbed his head in affirmation with a wide grin on his face.
"Watch out for your appointment letter kid!" YN smirked at him and the said young man stood up bowing continuesly.
As he stepped forward to take back his portfolio file, Yoongi grabbed his collar and mumbled.
"Keep the news to yourself!"
"Y-yes s-sir!" Taehyung stuttered at the sudden aggressive behaviour but kept his cool and hurriedly walked out of the studio, clenching his file in his arm tightly. An obvious jolly bounce in his steps as he disappeared from their sights.
Yoongi looked at YN and clicked his tongue, earning a eyeroll from her.
"What!" He exclaimed. "I don't wish to deal with obnoxious nosy reporters. And that boy looks like a walking chatterbox! And he's appealing to the eyes."
The three wrapping up their stuffs to leave.
"Okay people!" Hoseok interrupted the two, earning their attention.
"I think we have something serious to discuss. Eli's daughter, Kate! Have you decided YN?"
"That kid is just an annoying fly. Why bother." YN spoke waving her hand dismissively.
The three quickly walked out of the studio with long, quick paces, not wanting to stay more than needed.
"Focus on the upcoming auction. Start sending out the invitations and get the confirmation lists of people attending the ceremony within the next three days. Yoongi and I have to personally run some errands. So you're on your own!"
YN told him calmly and Hoseok didn't push their talk anymore.
"Ms Jeon!" A high pitched voice screamed in their direction and the three turned around and saw Sanchez running towards them with a small gift box.
The man slowed down infront of them, bending over a little and panted loudly earning a frown from them.
Yoongi opened his mouth to ask but the professor was quicker.
"We had prepared a small gift for you. But you had already left the studio before I could give it to you!"
Sanchez explained with heavy pants between his words.
Hoseok stretched out his hand and took the gift box from the man with a wide smile.
"It's not too fancy, is it?" He asked and Sanchez shook his head and said
"It's not, Mr Jung."
"We should leave. We still have a few places to visit. Then!" Yoongi spoke with a firm nod and the teacher only smiled and stepped back as he saw the three climbing into the chopper.
09:00 P.M
Kim's Residence
Namjoon groaned and shut his book close with a small thud and slowly rubbed his forehead to ease the ringing in his head. Something had been nagging him from the moment Namjoon heard the voice of Ms Jeon in the college.
Even though the man was unable to see her face, he could swear that he has met that woman somewhere in the past.
But...................
"Hi darling! Sorry for being late. The board meeting was a bit mess today!" Seokjin yawned loudly, as he greeted his husband.
He threw his bag on the couch, unbuttoning his shirt as he slumped down on their bed.
"You look very tired Jinie!" Namjoon spoke softly as he slid closer to his husband and kissed his earlobe.
Seokjin hummed with a whine.
"There's a new board member representative who attended the meeting. First, he's late. Second, he's able to process the stock transfer in such a small time considering the fact that he hasn't obtained them in more than a week.
And above all of that, the level of arrogance he has. I wanted to smack that cat so bad!" The exhausted man leaned over his husband as he ranted.
"What cat?" Namjoon looked genuinely confused.
"Ah............! I mean that new representative. He looks like a Persian cat! Hell, even his skin tone is pale!" Seokjin grunted, tired. He looked at Namjoon with droopy eyes and asked.
"Did you put Na-uel to bed?"
"Umhmn! Go and take a bath. I'll go and heat up the dinner." Namjoon said and pulled him off the bed along with him. Seokjin pouted but complied and the other went out to heat up the dinner.
At the dinning table, Namjoon was unusually quite than normal.
"Is everything okay at the University? You look troubled!" Seokjin asked seeing his husband lost in his own thoughts.
"Everything is going fine." Namjoon answered as he played with his food.
"Then what is it?"
"Remember when I told you that a jewellery brand was to conduct a campus interview in our college!"
Seokjin nodded in response.
"It's today!"
The handsome man gasped in realisation.
"Ah, right! Taehyung also told me about it and asked for a few good pointers for the interview!
But then, why are you still bothered by that? It's already over, isn't it?"
"It's the woman among the interviewers. I didn't get to see her but it feels like I have known her from somewhere in the past! I don't know why but it's just an unsettling feeling at the back of my head. And the worst part is that I'm unable to point out the reason!" Namjoon threw his chopsticks away in frustration.
Seokjin sighed and stood up from his chair. He poured a glass of water and handed it to his husband.
"First drink it up."
Namjoon unwillingly did as told.
"Do you think this is worth your concern?" Seokjin asked with a sheer concentration. Namjoon started at the other for a few good seconds and then shook his head in denial.
"Then forget about her. Your focus should stay on me, not some weird woman!" Seokjin complained playfully.
"As you wish baby!" Namjoon agreed with a warm smile and back-hugged him as the two walked up to their bedroom.
