The scorching summer heat beams down on the streets of Seoul. RapMon and J-Hope sluggishly drag themselves down the street as they head to the agency. The melted ice cream in their grasp drip down along the sides of their hands as the try to finish it before the entire thing is melted away.
J-Hope: "Gah! Why is it so hot today?"
Rap Monster: "summer is officially here my friend."
J-Hope: "why'd you want to walk there? We should've taken the van with the others."
Rap Monster: "I just didn't want to be in the van."
J-Hope: "you got me to come with you only cuz you promised me some ice cream but..."
His red stained hand holds up his bare Popsicle stick.
J-Hope: "I don't think it was worth it."
Rap Monster: "we're almost there."
J-Hope: "what's going on with you and Hunchul?"
Rap Monster: "n-nothing, nothing's going on with us. Why would you think that something was going--"
J-Hope: "that's exactly why I'm asking. When I first got here you two were really close, like brothers. Then you'd get all weird, and then get even closer, like a see-saw. And when I asked him the other day what was wrong with you guys he got all stuttery too."
Rap Monster: "why would you ask him what's wrong with us?"
J-Hope: "we're a family Namjoon. We shouldn't be fighting with each other. But it's like ever since Ikje Hyung left, you guys have turned into strangers. Hey! Did he sleep with your older lady friend or something?"
Rap Monster: "ha!, no!, there is no older woman. We're done."
J-Hope: "that . I didn't know who she was but she made you happy. You see, me, I don't think I ever want to fall in love, it looks like the pain of getting up is a lot harder than the actual fall."
Rap Monster: "yeah, I don't blame you, but uh... I don't actually think that I was in love..."
J-Hope: "sure you were. If you saw the look in your eyes that night, you would know that it was definitely the look of someone who was in love."
Rap Monster: " I don't know, we were pretty drunk. Maybe you imagined that whole 'look in my eyes'."
J-Hope laughs then nudges RapMon lightheartedly. They finally reach the agency and step inside. They release a deep sigh of satisfaction in unison as they feel the brisk cool breeze from the central A.C. On their sticky, sweat soaked, pale skin.
J-Hope: "I vote we stay right here."
Rap Monster: "I second that."
With arms spread wide, and eyes closed shut, they stand in the lobby as several other employees step in and out of the building, walking by them with looks of confusion and amusement. The CEO Bang Si-Hyuk steps out of the elevator with his assistant and a brow as his assistant directs his attention to the odd behavior being displayed.
Bang Si-Hyuk: "ahem!"
Upon noticing that the two have yet to budge he walks over and stands beside them. As he turns, he too spreads his arms and closes his eyes. The three of them stand there before the CEO clears his throat once again.
Bang Si-Hyuk: "is something suppose to be happening here or am I doing this wrong?"
Rap Monster: "eh?"
RapMon's right eye pries opens, and he squints before looking over at his side. His arms drop to his side and he grabs a hold of J-Hope, who's eyes open feeling RapMon's touch. The two laugh nervously as they notice the CEO standing at their side, they then begin bowing repeatedly.
Rap Monster & J-Hope: "hello CEOnim."
Bang Si-Hyuk: "is everything okay?"
Rap Monster: "yeah, just enjoying the cool air."
Bang Si-Hyuk: "ah, it is unusually hot out today. I actually just came from meeting with the other members of Bangtan Sonyeondan."
J-Hope: "is everything alright?"
Bang Si-Hyuk: "yes, yes, yes. I was actually just introducing the newest member to the others."
Rap Monster: "another new member?"
J-Hope: "I'm sure Hunchul was happy about that."
Bang Si-Hyuk: "actually, I was going to leave the group as is, but Hunchul insisted on this addition. I didn't want to make you boys feel like I was just trying to replace Choi Ikje, but Hunchul was adamant about this new guy. Well, you'll meet him soon enough, I'm off to a meeting, enjoy the rest of the day."
Rap Monster & J-Hope: "goodbye CEOnim!"
They all bow several times to one another as he exits and they rush to the elevator. Upon stepping outward, they stop just outside the rehearsal room.
J-Hope: "wait..."
Rap Monster: "huh?"
J-Hope: "don't you think it's a little weird that Hunchul would suggest a new member? I sometimes get the idea that he doesn't want any of us in the group... Well except you of course."
Rap Monster: "not even me..."
J-Hope: "nah, you two were the original. I get this weird feeling sometimes that he just wishes it stood that way. He isn't the most welcoming leader."
Rap Monster: "who knows why he does what he does, I've always thought of him as a weirdo."
J-Hope: "there you go again, what's going on with you two?"
Rap Monster: "nothing, I promise you."
J-Hope: "whatever, ready to go in?"
Rap Monster: "remember to smile. We don't want to scare off the new member."
J-Hope: "even if he is a freak because I mean... Who else would Hunchul know, right?"
They both smile forcefully, gritting their teeth and extending them as widely as possible. They step into the room side by side garnering the attention of the other four in the room. RapMon's exaggerated smile is replaced with a look of shock as the face of the newest member becomes visible to him.
Rap Monster: "K-K-Kidoh?!"
Kidoh: "Runch Randa!"
The two run to one another exclaiming in extreme happiness before colliding in a rather tight embrace. J-Hope steps further into the room and joins the others. The four of them watch the display of affection being shown by RapMon and Kidoh.
J-Hope: "so I take it that they know each other?"
Suga: "what gave you that idea?"
Supreme Boi: "he's one of our boys! He's a part of DaeNamHyup."
Rap Monster: "I can't believe you're here, I haven't seen you in forever!"
Kidoh: "yeah, I know! Everyone is pissed at you for going MIA."
Rap Monster: "well, at least now you know why I've been away."
Kidoh: "yeah, because you became a... Let me get this right, a 'Rap Monster'?"
Rap Monster: "aish!"
Kidoh: "it's still no excuse, Supreme Boi and Hunchul always found a way to visit. Especially Hunchul, he'd even sleep over majority of the time."
Rap Monster: "why would he sleep over?"
Kidoh: "I don't know, he said he was dating this girl and she was visiting family so he didn't want to be at the dorm."
Rap Monster: "during the lunar new year?"
Kidoh: "yeah, how'd you know?"
Rap Monster: "lucky guess, but how did you hear about this?"
Kidoh: "I only heard about Bangtan because for the last three months he's been over at the studio everyday begging I11evn to come back and I overheard them."
Rap Monster: "him and I11evn are speaking again?"
Kidoh: "yeah, what was up with that? I was sure that Hunchul slept with I11evn's girlfriend, sister or even mother! Ha! You know him. But now I'm not too sure, something really crazy must've happened, but They're finally on speaking terms again and they spoke to me about taking his place here and that it'd make you happy to have another familiar face around, so, here I am!"
Supreme Boi: "are you guys going to kiss or can we all get in on this convo?"
They turn to face the others but Kidoh grabs a hold of RapMon's face. He puckers up and begins making noises, while RapMon's arms flail about as he attempts to get away. Kidoh lands a kiss on his cheek and everyone dry heaves as they make their way to the others.
Supreme Boi proceeds to introduce Kidoh to Suga and J-Hope. RapMon stands there with a smile on his face, unable to hide the happiness he is feeling due to having yet another DaeNamHyup member around. He begins to look over everyone then finally looks to Iron who is already staring back at him.
J-Hope: "have you been to the dorm
Yet?"
