Dong Youngbae – Seoul, January 2016

“Thank you for today Youngbae-shi,” one of my student, Suhyung-shi bow at me with her dazzling smile

“You’re welcome Suhyung-shi, see you on the next meeting,” I replied and left quickly the studio right after I gather all my stuff.

Today’s classes had been nothing but exhausted. With some of new students, it is needed to open new class so they can learn the basic. And what more exhausted is that they personally want me as their instructor. Remembering that I’m the one who own this Yoga and dance studio and few branches, I don’t really need to teach cause I hired another instructor. But oh well, Its not good to be a big boss that does nothing. And for me, doesn’t matter that you’re the owner or the director, you should know and handle your business yourself.

“Sajang, there’s jiyong-shi called an hour ago. He said that you need to check your phone as soon as you finish your class and umm--,” my assistant reporting with hesitant face

“And what else did he said minji-ah? ” I asked her with amused smile cause I know Jiyong must said stupid things and minji must be ashamed to tell me

“umm, he said that “don’t get too long teaching bunch of that old rich woman cause they only want to lure you as their fresh and young toy””

“hahaha that brat!” I laugh hard at that. Not really because what jiyong said is ridiculous, cause I know there’s truth between, but because of minji’s red face. Minji was so cute sometimes and make me and Jiyong can’t help but . “Thank you minji-ah. Its already 6 past 30, you should go home.”

“Yes sajang, and umm Miss younjae asked for your phone number but I give her this office number,” she said with proud smile. What’s her age again? Its 22 but why she’s so adorable thou.

“You did great, now just go home minji. You need to attend university tomorrow and please be careful,” I waved at her with my best smile cause she’s really worth it.

...

“And where are you and the guys again?! Didn’t you said 8 pm at Yeogi Butcher’s House and right now its 8 past 10??”

“Aigooo mama-bae, I’m on my way with maknae and we’re stuck in traffic. Easy! We’re near. 10 minutes at best. Why you keep bothering me?” Jiyong groaning through my phone.

“Seunghyun hyung said 5 minutes, and daesung said he’s near and now you—oh wait daesung is here, bye jiyong!” I cut him and hang on him. For a second I thought I heard jiyong ‘s cuss.

“Hyung! Sorry I’m late, there’s a bit revision from client on last minute,” Daesung said with his angelic smile that I love the most.

“Its okay dae, you’re here at least,” I replied with the smile. “While the other always late,” And I still end it with nagging

“They caught in traffic I guess?” he offer with his apologize face. This is what I like most from daesung. He has big heart and never too fast to judge on something. But well, the other guys are famous for their lateness and antic. They’re basically troublesome.

 But still... No matter what, we love and protect each other. They were my brothers that I treasure most. Maybe we’re not blood related but that doesn’t make me love them less. They, aside from my blood brother and parents, are the one who keep supporting me all the time. We knew each other since we’re neighbourhood back then when we’re kids. Meeting with them and has a good laugh is my favourite things in the world. Well, aside from how mischievous the troublesome guys.
