After Yugyeom threatened me I agreed to follow through with the plan, today was the day I was being sent out to apply for the job at Nam's Cafe. I piled into the van with JinYoung and buckled up silently as JinYoung drove away from the warehouse "Don't worry YoungJae, you'll do great" JinYoung reassured me "Yeah...I better, or Yugyeom will have my head" I exhaled worriedly, JinYoung sighed and stayed quiet the rest of the way to the Cafe
We arrived at the Cafe and I got out "Don't worry too much, just remember what I taught you" JinYoung smiled warmly, I nodded "I'll try" I waved JinYoung off and headed into the Cafe as JinYoung drove off. Inside the Cafe was super busy, all the tables were filled but Jungkook was nowhere in sight, I worked my way through the dining area and headed to the counter "Excuse me, is the owner around?" I asked one of the female workers behind the counter "Namjoon!" The girl shouted before continuing her business, Namjoon rushed out from the back room and up to me "How can I help you?" Namjoon panted "Um, I came to apply for a job?" I rubbed the back of my neck nervously "You're hired! Get back here and help me serve these orders!" Namjoon ran back to the backroom, I blinked a couple of times, that was easy... I stood up and went to the backroom to help Namjoon carry out orders

The whole day was hectic as I was there, around 6:30 everything calmed down some and the workers had time to relax a bit, Namjoon walked up to me and patted my shoulder "Thanks for the help, what's your name?" I turned to look at Namjoon and gulped "Um, YoungJae" Namjoon smiled "Well YoungJae, you came along just in time, I can mark that down as your evaluation!" Namjoon chimed "Welcome to the Cafe" Namjoon finished and walked off to the backroom, I smiled to myself and looked at the time, it was about the time I should head out and meet JinYoung
I walked out front and noticed the van parked across the street, I quickly crossed the road and knocked on the window, JinYoung rolled the window down and smiled "Hey, how'd it go?" I smiled "I got the job as soon as I walked in, the place was packed! Namjoon, he's the owner, said I was such a great help he's gonna keep me on the team" I might have sounded more excited than I was supposed to but JinYoung didn't seem to mind "That's great YoungJae! Are you off now? I think we should go report this to Yugyeom" I nodded, looking back over my shoulder at Nam's Cafe "Yeah, I'm off. Let's go back home and tell Yugyeom how great I am" I giggled and crawled into the van

As JinYoung and I entered the warehouse we were met with the curious eyes of Got7 "Well?" Jackson finally spoke after a few minutes of silent staring passed "I got the job, obviously!" I smiled brightly as Got7 broke into cheers and praise, Yugyeom didn't voice it but his smile said he was proud of my accomplishment, mostly because his plan was going his way...
JinYoung patted my back like a proud parent "Let's get some celebratory food!" Got7 cheered louder and quickly ran to grab what money they had, Yugyeom walked up and stood in front of me "Good job, YoungJae. But this isn't the end of your job" I stared up at Yugyeom and nodded slowly "Yes sir..." I mumbled as Yugyeom turned and walked away "Uh, Yugyeom, are you not coming to eat?" JinYoung called out to Yugyeom who kept walking "Enjoy" Was all Yugyeom had to say before he disappeared into his darkened room. JinYoung and I looked at each other before shrugging and heading back out to the van as the other Got7 members tumbled out of the warehouse and into the van

The next day, JinYoung dropped me off at Nam's Cafe just before noon, rush hour was at lunchtime till about 3 or 6:30 depending on the day. I went inside and glanced around the Cafe I noticed Jungkook immediately, his long hair stuck out like a sore thumb, not to mention the guy's he was sitting with, one of them had bright pink and yellow hair, one had a deep red-colored hair, one was dirty blond and one was a bright mint green, what kind of freaks dye their hair like that? Only two of the guy's sitting with Jungkook sported brown hair at a decent length, there was no mistaking it though, it was Jungkook and his friends for sure, not to mention the children hanging around them, there was a little boy, about 5 sitting between Jungkook and the half yellow and pink-haired dude, then a little girl, about 1, sitting on Jungkook's lap and another little girl, just a few months old sitting on the mint haired guy's lap
I stared at the group for a moment before shaking my head and heading to the backroom to get ready, I thought Jungkook worked here, why is he sitting at the table? I put on my apron and picked up my notepad and pencel before heading back out into the dining area, I noticed Jungkook and his friends didn't have any drinks or food so I inhaled deeply and smiled the nicest smile I could muster before walking over to their table "Hi, can I take your orders?" I gulped nervously as I glanced around the table, all of their eyes were on me, it made me sweat... "Oh, guy's, I'd like you to meet the newest member of Nam's Cafe, he really helped me out yesterday when the place was packed, his names YoungJae" Namjoon, who was sitting at the table with them, and was one of the brunettes with decent hair length spoke, "Oh, nice to meet you!" The red-haired male closest to the window chimed happily, I couldn't help but smile "Oh, I didn't know you hired someone else" Jungkook looked at Namjoon after staring at me
"Well, you're still on maternity leave and I needed help, you still have your job" Namjoon explained to which Jungkook nodded "Good to know. Nice to meet you YoungJae" Jungkook turned to me and smiled, and for some reason, I didn't have the urge to stab him with my pencil at all "Thank you. Can I get you anything?" I held up my notepad to remind them of the question I had asked when I first walked up, Jungkook looked down at the little boy between him and the half haired guy "Minho, are you hungry?" I was a little stunned, that was the infamous Minho? The one BamBam snuck out of the warehouse to help Yugyeom kidnap?
Minho looked up at Jungkook then at me then back at Jungkook and shook his head, he was obviously shy "Anybody else hungry?" Jungkook looked away from Minho and scanned over the table, nobody seemed to be hungry or thirsty "We're good, thanks anyway" Jungkook turned to me and smiled lightly, I nodded and bowed "Very well" I walked away from their table to take someone else's order but throughout my shift, I kept my eyes on the table and occasionally walked by to eavesdrop
-
During one of my eavesdropping trips around their booth, I overheard them speaking
"Hobi, we want to thank you again for switching apartments with us" The smaller brunette looked over to the red-haired boy, Hobi, I assume
"Don't worry about it Jimin, you and Yoongi needed a bigger place since Yumi came along" Hobi smiled brightly as he glanced to the small child in the mint-haired guy's lap, Yoongi must be his name... And the small brunette would be Jimin, so far I've learned a lot
"Well still, thank you" Jimin smiled warmly before nudging Yoongi's arm "Oh, uh, thanks" Yoongi mumbled without looking at Hobi
Hobi smiled more, if possible, and chuckled "Yoongi, you're blushing!" Hobi chimed and pointed at Yoongi "Shut up!" Yoongi hissed, clearly embarrassed
The booth they were sat at was rupturing with laughter as they all looked to Yoongi whose face was beat red. I stood behind the counter watching them be all happy with each other, I wonder what Jungkook was like when he was with Yugyeom? Yugyeom is such a dick...I can't believe JB let him be the leader, I exhaled and shook the thoughts from my mind before wiping the counters down, mentally logging the information into my brain to relay it back to Yugyeom and Got7
-
One by one the booth Jungkook and his friends sat at slowly emptied out as they left, Jungkook and the half haired guy, who I found out was named Taehyung, were the last to leave with Minho and their daughter, Namjoon had already gone back to the office to start getting ready to close up, I walked around and mopped the dining area as the other customers filed out slowly "YoungJae, great work today!" Namjoon came out of the back room with a smile on his face "Oh, thanks" I smiled sheepishly "Here, this is early but I think you deserved it" Namjoon held out an envelope with my name on it "What?" I furrowed my brows and took the white package slowly "It's a paycheck, haven't you ever seen one before?" Namjoon looked a little confused by my reaction to the envelope "Oh, o-oh! Yes, I have, sorry" I chuckled nervously, hoping Namjoon wasn't getting suspicious of me "Well, goodnight" Namjoon smiled and patted my back before heading back to the office
I stood there for a moment while looking down at the envelope in my hand, slowly I opened the envelope and pulled out the check "$100?! For 2 days of work?!" I quickly covered my mouth as I realized I shouted that out, luckily, Namjoon was the only one left here and he didn't hear anything from the office. I put the mop away and quickly rushed outside to the van parked across the street "JinYoung! Look!" I jumped into the van and held my check out to JinYoung excitedly "Whoa, already?!" JinYoung held the paper check and smiled "Yeah, Namjoon is really cool!" I covered my mouth as the words left my lips, JinYoung's smile faded
"YoungJae, you know you can't go off and get attached to Jungkook's friends, they're the enemy too" JinYoung reached out and rubbed my arm as I lowered my head "I know, I'm sorry" JinYoung exhaled "I understand it though, so I'm not gonna tell Got7 or Yugyeom about you liking your boss" My head sprung up in surprise to JinYoung's words "You won't?" I tilted my head slightly "I won't. It's your first real job, even if your boss is one of our enemy's that doesn't mean you can't like the boss aspect of him. Just don't go off and like him as a person or his friends, cause that's gonna lead to a problem" I nodded happily and smiled "You've always been my favorite member, JinYoung!" I leaned over the center console and hugged JinYoung tightly "You're my favorite too, you're even above JB" JinYoung giggled which caused me to giggle as well "Let's go back to the warehouse" JinYoung suggested, I nodded and sat back in my seat while clutching my check close
-
We arrived back at the warehouse and went inside where Got7 was sat in a circle on couch cushions "YoungJae, welcome back, take a seat and tell us about your day" Yugyeom motioned to one of the empty cushions on the floor, luckily, JinYoung got to sit beside me "So...I learned all but 2 of Jungkook's friends... There's Jungkook, obviously, uh, Jimin...Yoongi...Namjoon, which is my boss...Uh, Hobi, and I even know some of the children's names, Jungkook's son, Minho and then there's Jimin and Yoongi's daughter, Yumi...I didn't catch Jungkook's daughters name" I trailed off, Yugyeom looked pleased with my information "Is that all?" Yugeyom urged "Um...Oh! Hobi switched apartments with Jimin and Yoongi! That's pretty much all I got today..." I looked down but quickly looked back up at Yugyeom as he clapped "Well done. Keep at it" Yugyeom stood up and left the room "So, YoungJae, is that really what happened today?" Jackson leaned over some to try and get closer to me and be sneaky "Yeah. Oh! I got my paycheck early! $100!" I pulled my paycheck out of my pocket and held it up to show Got7 who started to praise me and came over to tackle me, except for JinYoung and Jackson
