Recognition
Lost StarsJimin woke up past noon to a buzzing noise; she was exhausted from all the activities from the day before. She stretched in bed before opening her eyes and shutting off the alarm. She felt so well rested. As she spent more time in bed, she realized that she fallen asleep while there were guests! She scrambled onto her feet and ran into an empty living room. The blinds were closed and she suddenly felt disorientated. She found a note stickied on the fridge that read,
“Morning Jimin, if you're hungry I stored food for you in the fridge in the blue container.
Reminder: we have a meeting with the vocal coach at five.
Meet you at the company!”
- Yerin.
“Ahh, Yerin’s so thoughtful," Jimin said to herself as she rushed to get ready.
She threw her hair up in a bun and fixed herself up a bit before heading out. She packed some extra clothes and decided to just eat brunch at the JYP cafeteria.
As she headed outside towards the building, she felt a chill. It was a windy day; she cursed herself for not bringing a sweater. As she approached the building, she noticed someone else entering from the boys’ dormitories. He looked familiar, but she couldn’t pinpoint exactly where she remembered him from.
He surprised her by stopping in his tracks and holding the door for her. She smiled and thanked him. Jimin felt she wasn’t usually recognizable, maybe he had seen the pass in her hand to enter. Even the fans waiting outside of the JYP building did not typically recognize her, they were mostly waiting for glimpses of her sunbaes. The boy trailed behind her and she felt his eyes on her, they both greeted the secretary at the front desk and the security guards. The corridor seemed to go on forever and they seemed to go to the same destination. The boy caught pace with Jimin and joked,
“Are you following me Park Jimin-sshi because I held the door for you? The thank you was enough.”
Jimin rolled her eyes at him and jokingly responded,
“Not possible, you were behind me the whole time… how can I be following you when you were obviously following me?” she wondered how he knew her name, she didn't recognize him from anywhere. She stared at him momentairly as he responded,
“Good point. You’re heading to the cafeteria?” he laughed.
She put on a surprised expression, “And you’re a mind-reader too?!”
The boy laughed at her antics, he said, “Well… what do you say we eat together? For old
